It turns out that this is a current trend for the upcoming fall series and Fox is not the only network to jump on the bandwagon. According to Variety.com, NBC is also bringing back \u201cProblem Child\u201d based on the 1990 John Ritter Film and CBS will be airing the series \u201cRush Hour\u201d and limitless, both based on old films.<\/p>\n<p>This seems to be the new trend for 2015 pilots, but it makes me wonder if movies being turned television series are just a way to lock in high ratings and an automatic fan base. Are networks running low on ideas or are they just trying to stick to what they know will sell. I\u2019m curious to see if this already existing fan base of the 2002 film, \u201cMinority Report\u201d, will effect the ratings next Monday night when the new Fox series premiers.<\/p>\n<p>Below you can find the trailers for both 2002 film and the 2015 TV series.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"584\" height=\"329\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_fLl-DMzxrk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"584\" height=\"329\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BdUxwYScrFo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As discussed in my last blog post, \u201cMinority Report\u201d is a sequel television series that is based off of the Steven Spielberg\/ Tom Cruise 2002 film \u201cMinority Report\u201d.
