I remember watching the original with my mom. I can watch the original again On Demand.

I enjoyed the original.

I'm always skeptical of remakes. I noticed the episode names and recognized them from the original.

From what little I see, it looks like Ian McKellan will be a permanent #2. I kind of liked the idea of the leader keeps changing but the buerocracy stays the same from the original.

I wonder how they'll handle "Free for All", and "It's Your Funeral". :think:

IFC's been running the original (eagerly awaiting the final episode w/ Leo McKern as Number 2), and has a few previews of the new show.
