What are the chances? Well, Sony does seem to take the most chances on short-run series as evidenced by their releases of Blue Thunder, Tabitha and Walking Tall. So I would say their shows have the most shot. Paramount seems to be delving into the vault but unfortunately they own just about everything and it may take years for them to get done with just the popular stuff they own. Fox, we already know is useless. Universal won't do it but apparently they seem to be open to sub-licensing. That's the good news. The bad news is what they charge for sub-licensing. Way too much for any limited run or limited appeal show to be affordable. Warner is even worse. Not only don't they put out their own stuff but they don't license out either.
My prediction is we may see one or two of the Sony titles sometime down the road and perhaps some of the Paramount at some point but there's no chance of any of the other series.
