Untouchable, with franchise variations already made

Untouchable

A Bomb Squad spin-off, Howard prequel or reunion sequel

Asked for a sequel, prequel, prestige-TV version, or all-Black cast, the panel answers that the prestige-TV version became Mindhunter.

The franchise has exhausted sequel and remake forms; Halloween: Resurrection is rejected as an adequate mostly Black version.

A prestige series about broader 1950s television corruption was considered possible but not especially desired.

A prestige-series version is entertained, while a playful modern recast imagines Travis Kelce as a real-life Forrest Gump sequel.

Untouchable versus Nichols or prison-doctor series

This Is the End already contains Pineapple Express 2: Blood Red; further options include a Red spinoff or prestige Ted Jones rise-to-power series.

The movie is untouchable, though an all-Black version is briefly enjoyed as a thought experiment.

A ten-episode contemporary adaptation could expand the novel and industry world, though the panel doubts it would improve on Altman.

A prestige casino series sounds compelling, with Kansas City or Chicago operations and a Fredo-in-Vegas interquel discussed.
