What Old TV Show or Movie will be Updated with CGI Next?

First Post
Reading that Star Trek thread got me thinking: what will they try to update next?

Scoobie Doo: New and improved animation that shows the kids from Scooby Doo actually walking rather than just moving up and down!

Tom Baker Doctor Who: New CGI techniques remove blemishes and bad teeth and clean up his drunken stumbling!

Monty Python: New rendering techniques replace male Python's acting as women with actresses!

You mean those weren't women on Monty Python?

(Joke. Though I never understood why the British seem to think men in women's clothing is so funny)

I don't think any other old shows are that popular to warrant CGI. Twilight Zone, maybe.
 

Lost in Space: Come on that robot was so lame.
My Uncle the Martian. Just because you can animate the antena better.
Twilight Zone: Surely you can make a better version of the gremlin on the airplane wing. (O wait they already tried that).
The Day the Earth Stood Still: Horrible special effects drag down the entire thing.
Plan 9 from Outer Space: Or is that just too easy?
Blake's 7: The original needed updating on the day it started.
Red Dwarf: Just think how cool it it would be with modern digital effects
Bewitched: They can digitally merge the two Darrens into one combined person for the entire series.
I Dream of Jeannie: They can digitally remove even more clothes from Jeannie.
ALF: Just think of what an all digital ALF could do, it would be like the digital Yoda.

John Woo did this, a straight to TV pilot movie, was going to be a full series but got canned, you can still see part of the sets used for this in the new Battlestar Galactica
as part of the Pegasus

The BBC were talking about redoing this awhile back,

Red Dwarf

A big budget version of this has already been shot,
but seems to have disappeared

Just think of how cool it would be with just the effects that were considered modern at the time that show was made.

Seriously, they had better special effects in the 1950's than they had the budget to use when they made that show.
