Flash Gordon
Good Lord, I've never even seen the original and I feel disappointed by the unfaithfulness of this update of sci-fi classic. No spaceships, an unthreatening Ming, an overabundance of Canadian scenery, and actors that were so wooden they make Keanu Reeves cry. I mean they delivered their lines in such a monotone they could put David Duchovny to sleep.
One can hope they improve the show as time passes, but I wouldn't hold out hope. If they cancel the show this Friday perhaps we could have a good reboot in 5 years.
