15 TV Show Reboots for a Solid Blast From the Past

TV show reboots: either a perfect storm or the kiss of death.

While we might all wish that our go-to old favorite would return for a reboot, they don't always turn out the greatest. I'd say that 2015 was the Year of the Reboot: suddenly it seemed like every show we'd ever heard of was getting the green light for a new life. And just around a year or two later, we had a few already under our belts with Fuller House, Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, and Roots.

Perhaps it's because we set our expectations for these reboots waaaaaay too high, but most of the time, we're slightly let down when they finally air. Regardless of that, they give us a heavy dose of nostalgia, which is always necessary from time to time. These 15 TV show reboots are just a few of the most well-made we've seen so far, from the early days of the genre to the current takes on the form.
