    if they ever did a live action tv show (Which they probably won't), what channel would it be on?
    FOX
    NBC
    or Sci-Fi?

    Would much prefer an animated series based on the movie then anything else.

    FOX is pretty bad about canceling show that are cool so FOX would be out.

    Sci-Fi has something against nerds so if they thought we liked it they would just kill the show. So I guess maybe NBC, since it doesn't seem to fit either ABC or CBS and I can't think of a cable network that handle the budget.

    If the production is something along the lines of Italian Spiderman, I'm sold.

    It would never fly because the costs would be through through the roof. Unlike the Sara Conner Chronicles, a TF show would require having special effects in most of the shots. That is, unless they totally f'd it up and hardly ever had a bot in sight. Then it would just suck and get canned.

    I'd totally get a kick out of watching Godzilla style bots go at it though....

    I can't think of any Film-to-TV franchise that turned out well in all honesty.
    I just can't get that crappy RoboCop TV series out of my head - budget slashed, violence neutered, poor direction. They'd simply do a better job with a cartoon based on the movie bots.

    Though I'd much rather see something based on the Classics likenesses.
