"Time for a Revival: Your Picks for Iconic TV Shows to Return"

A new series is on the horizon for two highly-anticipated BBC dramas, Line of Duty and Doctor Foster. As we eagerly await their comeback, we want to know which other beloved TV shows you'd love to see revived.

From nostalgic sitcoms to gripping sci-fi blockbusters, there are countless programmes that have captured our hearts over the years, but sadly never got the chance to return. With a vast array of genres and characters to draw from, it's hard not to get sentimental about some long-running favourites.

So, we want to hear from you! What TV shows would you like to see make a comeback? Is it a classic sitcom that still holds up today, or perhaps an award-winning drama that left us wanting more? Share your thoughts with us and let's relive the magic of some bygone eras.

Whether it's a retro feel-good show, a thrilling crime saga, or even a fantasy epic, we want to know what programmes you'd love to see return. Let's get the conversation started!
 
I'm super down for more Line of Duty and Doctor Foster episodes ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿ“บ. But I think it would be awesome if they brought back some other shows like EastEnders or Coronation Street too ๐Ÿ‘. Those British soap operas have such a huge following worldwide, and it's always great to see familiar faces on screen ๐Ÿ˜Š. And can we please get a revival of the BBC's Sherlock series too? I loved Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock, and it would be amazing to see more of his genius ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’ก.
 
I'm getting all nostalgic just reading this ๐Ÿ˜Š. I think it would be awesome if they revived some of the classic BBC shows like "Only Fools and Horses" or "Fawlty Towers". They're still hilarious even after all these years, and it'd be great to see them back on our screens with new characters and storylines. ๐Ÿคฃ As for sci-fi blockbusters, I'd love to see a revival of "Red Dwarf" โ€“ who wouldn't want to see the antics of Captain Red Dwarf and Kryten again? ๐Ÿ˜‚ It's always exciting to think about old shows getting a new lease on life, and I'm sure there are plenty more gems out there waiting to be rediscovered. Let's hope the BBC takes notice of our requests! ๐Ÿ‘
 
I'm so glad they're reviving Line of Duty, because I was literally on the edge of my seat waiting for the next season... just kidding, kinda ๐Ÿ˜‚. But seriously, who doesn't want a bit of old-school detective drama? And Doctor Foster, yay, more Laura Pittman angst ๐Ÿ™„. On a more serious note, I'm all about reviving some classic sitcoms like Friends or Seinfeld. Those shows never get old, and I'd love to relive the laughs with old favorite characters. Plus, it's always fun to see what the new gen is missing out on. Let's hope they don't mess it up this time around ๐Ÿคž.
 
I'm still on a major bingeworthy vibe from that last season of "Stranger Things" ๐Ÿคฏ I mean, can't we just bring back Eleven and crew already?! But for real though, have you seen those new retro-style ads they're putting out? They're giving me serious throwback feels to the 80s ๐Ÿ˜Ž Like, who's gonna make a comeback revival of "The Golden Girls"? I'd totally binge-watch that again. And can we please get more period dramas with decent representation? It's always like, "oh yeah, there's this one black character...". Not cool ๐Ÿ™„
 
Ugh, I'm so down for another Line of Duty series lol ๐Ÿคฃ. Can't they just keep it going already? On a serious note tho, I think it's sick how we can still revisit old faves and feel all the feels again. Reminds me of that time I binge-watched Friends for the 100th time and was like "I'm not weird, I just love Joey" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘. Anyway, gotta say, some nostalgic sitcoms would be awesome to revive โ€“ think Fresh Prince of Bel Air or Sabrina the Teenage Witch, those were some iconic shows ๐Ÿ“บ๐Ÿ’–.
 
OMG, gotta say I'm so down for Doctor Foster's revival!!! ๐Ÿคฉ Been watching from the start and Laura Linney's character was literally so complex & relatable. And Line of Duty is a close second, can't wait to see AC-12 back in action ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™€๏ธ
 
๐Ÿ“บ I'm totally with you on this one... I miss some of my old faves from when I was growing up. You know what would be awesome? A revival of "Friends" ! It's a classic, right? People still quote those lines and I think it would be hilarious to see the gang back together again. Plus, who wouldn't want to relive Ross and Rachel's on-again, off-again relationship all over again ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘ซ. Another show that comes to mind is "The X-Files" - Mulder and Scully were always so cool! It would be amazing to see them back solving those paranormal cases once more ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’ก.
 
omg i'm so down for a revival of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" ๐Ÿง›โ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ that show was literally my fave growing up and it would be amazing to see Buffy back in action ๐Ÿ’ช the latest stats on TV revivals are pretty wild btw - 71% of millennials want to see "Friends" make a comeback, while only 27% of gen zers think that's a good idea ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ“Š did you know that Netflix just dropped $20 billion on reviving some classic shows? ๐Ÿ’ธ
 
I'm not sure why we need a new series to convince me that these shows should be revived... I mean, Line of Duty and Doctor Foster are already doing well, right? ๐Ÿค”

But if I had to choose some iconic TV shows to bring back, I'd say how about some of the classics like The Office or Friends? Those sitcoms still hold up today in my opinion. Or maybe something sci-fi like Stargate SG-1? That was an epic show that left me hooked. ๐Ÿ“บ

However, before we get all nostalgic and start begging for revivals, I think it's worth considering why some shows don't come back in the first place. Is it because they're not still popular, or are they just not being produced anymore? Do we have any facts or data to support this revival push? ๐Ÿ“Š
 
I'm low-key hoping they bring back Broadchurch ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ“บ... that series was so addictive and the coastal setting is still gorgeous in real life. According to IMDB, 63% of users want a revival for the show, which isn't surprising considering it had an amazing cast and writing ๐Ÿ‘. Did you know that the original Broadchurch series aired in 2013 and attracted around 6 million viewers per episode? ๐Ÿ’ฅ And let's not forget about the success of its spin-off series, Broadchurch: The Final Episode... which was watched by over 7.4 million people ๐Ÿ“บ. It's crazy how invested we get in these shows! ๐Ÿคฏ
 
I'm really rooting for Sherlock to make a comeback ๐Ÿง it was such an iconic show and Benedict Cumberbatch is just so good in that role. I mean, who wouldn't want to see him solve more mysteries? And it would be amazing to have some old favorites back on our screens again. Maybe we could even get some of the original characters back too? That'd be pure magic ๐Ÿ˜Š. What about you guys, what shows are you hoping to see revived? ๐Ÿ“บ
 
omg I'm so down for Line of Duty and Doctor Foster to come back!! ๐Ÿ˜ they were both so good and left us with cliffhangers that still give me anxiety thinking about them ๐Ÿคฏ but if i had to choose more shows to revive id say how I Met Your Mother, it's such a classic sitcom that never gets old lol and also maybe some old episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, who doesn't want to see Buffy kick some supernatural butt again ๐Ÿ’ช
 
I'm so down for more Line of Duty and Doctor Foster! But honestly, I've been missing some other oldies like Broadchurch and Sherlock too... those shows were so gripping and well-written ๐Ÿ˜…. I know it might sound crazy, but I think we should also bring back some of the older sitcoms like The Office (UK) or Extras - they're still hilarious even years after they ended! And can you imagine a revival of The IT Crowd? ๐Ÿ˜‚ Okay, maybe that's a bit too niche, but I'd love to see more British comedy get a second chance.

I'm totally down for more Line of Duty and Doctor Foster, those were so good! ๐Ÿคฏ I think it would be amazing if they brought back some other BBC classics like Sherlock or Luther too. Those shows were just so gritty and intense, you know? ๐Ÿ˜Ž But I'd also love to see some more retro sitcoms, like Only Fools and Horses or Blackadder - those guys are comedy gold! ๐Ÿ’ƒ And can we please, please get a revival of The IT Crowd? That show was pure genius ๐Ÿค“. What about all the old sci-fi shows like Red Dwarf or Blake's 7? Those were so underrated but totally awesome in their own way ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ’ฅ
 
I'm so down for more Line of Duty and Doctor Foster ๐Ÿ™Œ! I've loved those shows for ages and it would be amazing if they could bring back some old characters too ๐Ÿค”. I think it would be so cool if they did a revival of some classic British sitcoms like Only Fools and Horses or Men Behaving Badly ๐Ÿ˜‚, you know the ones with the funny guys who always seem to find themselves in weird situations? It's just about bringing back that same vibe and making us laugh again ๐Ÿคฃ. And can we please get a revival of some sci-fi shows like Red Dwarf or Blake's 7 too?! They're so underrated but so much fun to watch ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ‘ฝ
 
I'm totally down for some TV shows making a comeback ๐Ÿคฉ. I mean, who wouldn't want to relive their fave childhood memories of watching Line of Duty and Doctor Foster again? It's like they never left us ๐Ÿ˜‚. But seriously, there are so many iconic shows that just stopped mid-season or got cancelled too soon... it's crazy how much nostalgia is tied to our favorite TV shows. I'd love to see some retro sitcoms make a comeback, you know, the ones from the 90s and early 2000s like Friends and Seinfeld? They're still so funny today ๐Ÿคฃ!
 
๐Ÿ“บ I'm so down for a Line of Duty revival! That show was always on point, and I'm obsessed with AC-12 - they're like my favorite TV team ๐Ÿ’ผ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™€๏ธ. As for Doctor Foster, same vibe - that show was so gripping and intelligent, it's about time we got more of Joanne Foster's story ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ’โ€โ™€๏ธ. I'm also all for a Stranger Things revival - that show is like the ultimate binge-watching experience, who doesn't love Eleven and her crew? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฎ But honestly, I think we should bring back some classic sitcoms like Friends or Frasier - those shows are timeless and still hilarious today ๐Ÿคฃ.
 
๐Ÿ“บ I'm so down for some revivals already! You know what would be amazing - that old British comedy "Fawlty Towers"? It still holds up today and I think a reboot or a one-off special would be hilarious. ๐Ÿคฃ I mean, who wouldn't want to see Basil Fawlty's antics again? The original was so well done, it'd be hard to top... but I guess that's why they call it a revival right?

Also, I'm intrigued by the idea of "classic sitcoms" - what do you think about reviving some 90s/00s shows like "Friends" or "Seinfeld"? They still have such iconic characters and storylines. And if we're talking sci-fi blockbusters, how about "Battlestar Galactica"? That show was so mind-blowing back in the day...

Let's make some TV magic happen! ๐Ÿ˜Š
