- In 2016 Hulu and Paramount Television started developing a series with writers, and nothing came of it; the idea has been sitting there a lifetime and the hosts want to at least see the attempt.
- The hurdle is that the movie looks different with cell phones and Uber solves it quickly, so set it before cell phones, such as 1995, or in a blackout or something more post-apocalyptic, since the original seems set slightly in the future.
- A series could introduce a new gang each episode; the DJ loses her job in a remake since DJs lack that power now, replaced by a podcaster or someone live on Periscope; with 500 TV shows the idea could work.
