Assuming it would have good writing, a good director, and a good cast, of course.

We can dream, can't we?

My choice--WKRP in Cincinnati.

1. Stargate SG-1 ----
Of course, the show is based on the original movie, but I would like to see a feature film as a cap when the show finally ends.

I would say Sex & the City as well, but they did too good of a job tying all the loose ends in the last season, so there is no need whatsoever for a movie.

2. Buffy or Angel....
Sarah Michelle Gellar said no to it at first, but I wish they would get everyone back. That would be great. Joss is actually trying to get a Spike movie going. SOOOO excited about that. James Marsters is a great actor. And if they did Angel, well, David Boreanaz is just so freaking hot I would watch him read a phone book and be sooo happy.

3. Space 1999
Not casting new actors in the old roles (I hate that), but centering the story on a future generation of Alphans. That would avoid the "they did this wrong, they did that wrong, they contradicted the series here and here and here" syndrome that we fans are prone to, because changes can be explained by the passage of time - and new characters could be accepted on their own merits, rather than being compared to original versions. If it was done well, and with respect, I'd like to see it.

8. Coming out in 2008.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0462538/

Personally, I'd love to see a 24 movie and a Family Guy movie.

The ending wasn't satisfying, there could have been so much more.
