Like a few others I'd like to see Treasure Hunt back - in it's original format and in a decent timeslot!
I also really liked "Would Like to Meet", but as BBC2 seems to have got really dull recently I doubt it'll be back this side of Charter renewal.
The High Life could've stood a second series!
Bring back TV-am...

I'd bring back Crossroads from the 2001-2 era but I'd "Australianise" it a bit, using techniques used in Australian soaps. I'd also bring back a teen focus, especially if it was to return at 5pm, and pitch it directly at the CITV audience, this idea works well for Neighbours, as well as when ITV did it with Home & Away.

quite. if only he would sign up for that dating agency - it might take his mind off crossroads, its not like it finished a couple of years ago or anything

When I saw the title of this thread and that the latest post was by James Martin, I just

that Crossroads would be mentioned

It definitely is. It's only because The Simpsons has been shoved down their throats for so long that they almost have to like it. Futurama on the other hand was more of a cult. I've watched both quite a lot, and i'd say Futurama is definitely better. I bet if The simpsons and Futurama were both presented to them as new shows they would prefer Futurama.

Futurama's better than the simpsons end of story! I've been arguing about this with everyone at school!

Erm...that's what they did. But it was axed.
Crossroads has been axed. Amazing isn't it - as long as James Martin is around, we'd still think Crossroads is still going!

Underscoring, sexy men and women, credit sequences featuring the cast, maybe use filmic effect on it too. More dramatic storylines needed too that have far-reaching consequences.

I would bring back:
Blockbusters
Bullseye
About Britain
Chain Letters
Supermarket Sweep
Wheel of Fortune
More Regional Programmes on ITV!!!
BTW, Flava/James Martin/Keef Whyte, if Crossroads came back, who would play Scott Booth?

I have to say personally, i much prefer the Simpsons. I think I tend to repond to human cartoon character rather than robots, one eyed freaks or talking dogs etc. The comic genius that is the Simpsons cannot be matched by Futurama. Aren' t they both done by Matt G. anyway?
