Topic: Television To Movie

[GillE]

On the Radio Times website, they "...asked you which TV series you think has made the best transition to the cinema, and which other show you'd most like to see follow it."

This was the outcome:

Which TV show would you most like to see turned into a movie?

1. Doctor Who (new) (11%)
2. Friends (10%)
2. Red Dwarf (10%)
4. Heroes (9%)
5. CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (7%)
6. Spooks (6%)
7. 24 (5%)
7. Lost (5%)
7. Torchwood (5%)
7. The Prisoner (5%)
11. Battlestar Galactica (4%)
12. Other (4%)
13. Desperate Housewives (3%)
13. Primeval (3%)
13. Top Gear (3%)
13. Ugly Betty (3%)
17. House (2%)
17. Prison Break (2%)
19. ER (1%)
19. Grey's Anatomy (1%)
19. Scrubs (1%)

I wonder which bozo voted for Top Gear to be turned into a movie?

I have to say that the only programme I watch out of those listed is Top Gear which has to be the best comedy show on TV today.  I don't really see how it would lend itself to a movie though!

I voted the way I thought........ ............................cheek

I watch Doctor Who, Torchwood and Top Gear out of those.  I certainly think Dr Who and Torchwood would be good as movies, and they are practically there with Dr Who, as the last few stories were over two episodes of at least 45 minutes, so put them together, and you have a movie.

There isn't any there that I like that would make a decent movie, except possibly, Spooks, and maybe ER.
