If you thought the world of entertainment television was running low on ideas, you cannot doubt that claim now.

Spaceballs was hilarious.

I don't see where they could possibly go with it.

Edit: Except in the "Spaceballs: The T-Shirt" direction.

I can just see for the Premere, Yogert introducing the series,,

The way I see it, if they keep the same attitude & maturity as the movie (maturity in the non-kiddy dumbed down sense), it could at least be decent. If however, they turn it into a kiddie mockery of the series, or something that leans a bit too much on parody, then yeah it could suck.

Just not any worse than anything else on TV.

I was never huge on Spaceballs, I'm a Thumb Wars guy. But I have to agree with the statement, there really isn't anything to go off of. The movie was complete and self contained, I just think anything would feel tacted on. Probably one of those continuity busters we all hate.

No, see, the whole point of Spaceballs was it's humor, where each joke had ties to Star Wars mockery.

There's a big difference between a joke that's funny and mirrors Star Wars, and a joke that's meant to mirror Star Wars. That was why Spaceballs was so awesome.

...I have a feeling it's going to end up like that Ewok series they had back in the 80's. Which was like a Sci-Fi smurf series.

I'd watch it. Unless it isn't Mel Brooks who plays Yogurt. Then i wouldn't watch it.
