Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp

“The end” does not mean what it used to. Which is to say, it does not mean the end. Once, Veronica Mars, Arrested Development, Full House, Coach, The X-Files, Heroes, 24, Roots, Twin Peaks, and The Muppets had all ended. Now, they have not. In 2015, any TV series with an ardent fan base can be revived, given new life by the combination of network desperation and streaming platforms’ bountiful budgets. Whatever one makes of this trend as a trend—and preliminary research suggests a person can wring her hands about the dearth of original ideas while using those very same hands to set her DVR to never, ever miss a moment of fresh Mulder and Scully—its results should vary widely. (What would a really good version of Full House look like? Not Full House.)
