No, just no. It's not the same thing as GTA. I would love a GTA series where it would be like True Detective as far as like each season would be a different main character and set up for each season.

Burn Notice was pretty awesome until the last few seasons and even then I still loved that show.

Except for the main character being a secret agent instead of a gangster it's surprisingly similar to the plots of most GTA games.

No, not the same at all. Burn Notice was more like a modern MacGuyver.

Agreed.

Yes Re-do Mario Bros as movie and Tv series.

It actually helps that Mario doesn't have a real plot. It gives you free creative reign to give Mario the plot that you want just as long as you keep the characters in tact instead of whatever the fuck they did with that movie.

Also I would love a Monkey Island tv series, though it would be extremely difficult to make as it needs to be hilarious.

Yes I would definitely watch RDR as a tv series on say like AMC or HBO.

Conker's Bad Fur Day would be awesome. If they made it like a TV series, they could do it like GroundHog Day where his day constantly repeats with more ridiculous shit happening each day/episode.
