  • A 10-episode remake is judged likely to be bad by one host.
  • A series could add an aftermath coda about Sandy and his mother, though the film’s abrupt tragic ending is both its best and worst quality.
  • The trailer’s lighthearted voiceover misrepresents the film.
  • A five-part miniseries could cover one day of Thanksgiving weekend per episode.
  • A joke IP spinoff would center on Jim Carver’s condition.
  • A remake would need to be bigger and more 1970s; a 13-episode show following one New Canaan family per episode is proposed.
