Quoting:
Might be one of the few remakes ("The Fugitive", "Mission Impossible") that's as good as the original.  8)

We'll see, it'll be hard for this to be done straight without getting campy (which is no problem with me)...you have to admit the show is pretty dated now...with characters like "Huggy Bear", and two sometimes "undercover" cops driving around in a "stealthy" bright red (w/white stripe) Ford Gran Turino ::), jumping on car hoods and such, its begging to be sent up as a satire...actually if you remember, the Beastie Boys already did a spoof of Starsky & Hutch, the video for "Sabatoge".

I had a toy model of the S&H red Grande Turino with the white stripe.  That was coool!  
That Beastie Boys video was HILARIOUS! It was more than a spoof of S&H, but the whole genre of shoot 'em up '70s cops with BIG OLD 'staches!
I'm trying to remember, did they make a Saturday morning cartoon version of Starsky & Hutch?  
Ask yourself, were Starsky & Hutch really anymore ridiculous than Crockett & Tubbs?

Best not to say. It might leak into rumors & ideas.  :)

Why not a remake of a really bad show like "Tabitha" , lame "Bewitched" spinoff,or "Supertrain". And see if it would turn into a huge success or a entire flop that would make "Gigli" look like an Oscar winner.  ::)

Unfortunately, "Bewitched" is in the works of being a remake featuring Nicole Kidman. That I might want to see. Just for Nicole Kidman's performance of Samantha Stevens.

A Hollywood sexy version of Mister Ed.  Perhaps not.

You speak "trashing" Starsky & Hutch, but we must bear in mind, this was not the highest televisual art.  As a previous poster pointed out, we're talking undercover cops who go peeling and squealing around town in a candy-apple Grand Turino with a white Nike swoosh on it. :D

But there's a tv remake on the works with Sherman Hemsley, OF "The Jeffersons", doing the voice of the horse. No joke.
It won't be "sexy", but rely on crass humor. Since it's picked up by Fox, I don't want to know.  :P

Crass humor, on FOX?! No, couldn't be... ::)
Maybe they should make it "Mrs Ed", w/a female horse, w/Anna Nicole for the voice. It would be a reality show and have other horses (scantily clad in sexy leggings of course) singing/competing to be the "American Horse Idol"...the judges would be fomer washed up amimated celebs from the 80's like Troy Mclure, My Little Pony, & He Man...
I know what you're thinking, yes I missed my calling as a programming executive. ;D
