What do you want to see Netflix make a series of? Can be remakes, adaptations, or original shows.

Silmarillion. I think it would make an awesome tv show.

A tv show of the wizard of oz books that is actually faithful.

Any fantasy show would be awesome.

I'd love to see Simarillion on TV but I think Netflix would be disappointing. Only something like HBO has the money to make it look nice, I feel. If it was a cartoon, maybe it could be Netflix, but I feel they'd go with computer generated, and I feel that hand-drawn would really fit the Silmarillion's story better.

Given the chance to watch some Seaquest DSV, I wouldn't mind a proper shot at the concept. Star Trek, but underwater, in the ocean, and with the tone it had in season one! <3

I'd love for them to finish The Clone Wars show.

Maybe do Knights of the Old Republic in animation.

World War Z. It would do fantastic as a TV show.

Yeah, that's definitely a book that's extremely well suited for a tv show/mini series. When the movie was announced, I knew there was no way that it would work because the book's format just doesn't lend itself to that kind of thing (not that the movie ended up having much to do with the book anyway, lol)

An honest to god animated Animorphs series.

I want a Trojan War series, but with content based more strictly on the classical sources. I'm picturing like a Battle Royale type series with all of our legendary heroes getting picked off one by one. Achilles would have a great fall-from-grace story, as the guy who just wanted to live a simple life being pressured into war, where he goes nuts massacring and raping people.

It would also have lots of gay, female warriors, and mythology. No attempts to make it more ~historical~ (by making shit up and cutting the gods). The framing story would be the gods making bets on everyone, and then invariably getting super offended and furious when the humans become more and more horrible. It would start with the apple and Paris, and Discord causing mischief. It would be great human commentary, and commentary on the relationship between gods and humans.

please let me direct it I have a script

Nice.

Gosh I want this. Especially because even if you solely stick to the Classical sources, you still have a lot. The general outline (Paris and his decision), Homer's Trojan cycle, the Aeschylus excerpts re: Achilles, the Trojan women, and if you want it can even be extended to Virgil. Especially if they focused on all the heroic figures. The mythos surrounding Troy is so rich and complex and a television show exploring that (maybe intercutting the fate of Agamemnon with Odysseus' journey) would be like a Game of Thrones I would actually watch.

That and I just need to see Zeus listing all the women he has had sex with to compliment Hera.

UNTIL SOMEONE GETS IT RIGHT

Pirates of Dark Water reboot

Oooh, yes please!

I'd love to see a TV adaptation of Robin Hood! (Let's not speak of the BBC version.)

You didn't like Guy's guyliner?

What about that one from the 80s?

What about the one from the '50s ('55-'59) with Richard Greene?

A Wrinkle In Time miniseries.

MUCH BETTER than the one with Kyle Secor as The Man With Red Eyes.

Gladstone's Craft Sequence

I think the DC or the Marvel comics universe needs a self-parody show along the lines of "What The -?!" or "Bizzaro" if I remember the DC version right.

More costume dramas! Preferably of Georgette Heyer novels.

Diane Duane's Young Wizards series

The House of the Scorpion miniseries pls - with a full latino cast and (in my wildest dreams) most of it in spanish.

Netflix + Marvel team up on a Fantastic Four 1960s period piece. The Fantastic Four have gotten a bad shake when it comes to adaptations. I honestly think the best, most faithful way to do it would be a limited Netflix mini-series set in 1961. The Mad Men aesthetic meets the Guardians of the Galaxy storytelling vibe.
