10 Science Fiction Properties That Could Use a TV Reboot

5. Flash Gordon

In Flash Gordon, a super famous football player is transported to an alien world where he saves the babe and battles Ming the Merciless. The concept was originally dreamed up by Alex Raymond all the way back in 1934 . . . which is to say that it could definitely use a bit of a revamp. Make Ming a little less blatantly racist (he can still be merciless, but maybe consider a name change), make the local residents a little more rambunctious, and add a little bit more depth to Flash Gordon beyond the whole “blonde Superman” deal, and you’ve got the makings of a pretty sweet ongoing war on an alien planet.
