To many shows were never allowed to reach their potential even though some appealed to the masses beyond expectation. This show was one of them. Decision making at the time was based on pleasing the people in charge I think and not as much about what the people were watching .
Sure, today we can look back and say it was a great show touching many areas of society but were we thinking the same thing when it first aired. I was! A remake or revamped version to be more in tune with today's world would go over well in my opinion. TRY IT! I'd watch it more often than some of the revamped crime shows we're flooded with. Can't anyone tell we're getting tired of cops and robbers, crime science and legal system shows? Everything is teaching kids to be better criminals and/or the rest of the shows teach someone else's version of morality which isn't always the way it really is. How about 'what can be' and less 'what is'? A little hope in the world would go a long way.
