I read this on Variety:
MTV is following up their success with Teen Wolf with a TV adaptation of Scream.
NBC has green lit a Rush Hour pilot.
Wet Hot American Summer is coming to Netflix as a series.
I guess it was only a matter of time before TV ran out of ideas too.

Thing is, television has become the superior media. So it'd be smart to capitalize on the appeal of tv.

If Rush Hour doesn't have Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker in it, what's the point? Those two made the films for me. Especially Chris Tucker.

Television is a medium that is much more malleable than film, it's becoming more attractive to stars, and the intimacy that comes with long-form storytelling is impossible for film to compete with. |

Remember when TV Shows were so good that they got movies? Guess it's the other way around now since they can't think of original tv shows or because they want to continue a series but they don't want it to have a million movies

I'll give the Scream show a watch because I'm such a fan of the franchise. I think it can work, but I expect it'll be dreadful.

Ooooh! Hopefully they make "12 years a slave" into some show with Cedric The Entertainer and Lonnie Love!

I mean it's basically just going to be a bunch of teens murdering each other right? It could be called anything then, they're clearly just using the Scream name to market it. So far I'm already disappointed haha. |

12 Monkeys is pretty amazing so far imo. So I'm completely open to the concept if it's something I care about. A Scream show, not so much. Fargo, the Odd Couple, From Dusk Till Dawn, this whole trend is well underway and it's only going to continue.

The Scream TV show looks absolutely horrid. I don't know if anyone caught the trailer, but it looks dreadful.

Zombieland had a pilot on Amazon a year or so ago. Didn't have any of the original actors and fell pretty flat
