I'm looking forward to the return (not "reboot") of Roseanne.  I always loved that show (except for the ridiculous final season which, thankfully, will be ignored).  It realistically showed the trials and travails of a working class family trying to get ahead.  It had lots of controversy.  The return will as well, with the Conners being Trump supporters while other family members, including Jackie, livid about it. 

As for a remake of The Munsters, it can't be done.  They've tried in the past and it just was not the same.  All the other versions lacked the overboard yet subtle plots and the stars' charm.

Grandpa:  "Okay, Herman.  Two cars arrive at an intersection at the same time.  Which goes first?"
Herman:  "The bigger car?"
Grandpa:  "No, no, no.  That's just in California."

Lilly:  "Father, don't even think of changing into a wolf.  The last time you ended up in Kansas City with that police dog."

(Previous paraphrased.)
