If only Tiffani Amber Thiessen wanted to be on TV! She would be on 90210 right now, like they asked her, but alas, she turned them down. But perhaps she'd say yes to Zack and crew.

I would actually watch a remake of Saved by the Bell, as long as it included a remake of this scene:

say what you will about GH but it is a better soap opera than GG--that's my problem with GG--a good soap is so much more than kind of attractive people running around glaring at each other

I'd be happy if they brought back Veronica Mars, which was actually one of their shows.

They should soap up a That Girl revival--and keep it set in the 60s.

While NYPD Blue is largely forgotten today

I agree to a point, but that first season when Det. John Kelly was the focal point is still one of the finest seasons of television in history. I still haven't forgiven Caruso for leaving after the first four episodes of season two. He was so intense in that role, as opposed to the parody that is known as Horatio Cain.

@Midwesterner in NYC:

Agreed, although I don't think that show would succeed today.

@Alex Carnevale: Really? I know some people enjoyed Smits' Bobby Simone, but I really think if Caruso had stayed on that John Kelly would be considered an iconic character.

I can't believe I am defending Caruso, but he was so good in that role, I think the first season could have succeeded at any time.
