Talk:List of films based on television programs

Untitled

The Little Rascals isn't a TV show, and while Josie and the Pussycats is based upon the Josie comic, not the Josie cartoon, it can stay on principle.b. Touch 00:03, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Are you sure "The Little Rascals" wasn't a TV show. I can remember it being in black-and-white on Foxtel (Australian PayTV) a couple of years ago. Tinkstar1985 11:02, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Gang You're commenting on Wikipedia. Perhaps you could try using it sometime. It was never a TV show; it was a series of shorts.

Mission: Impossible

I have moved Mission: Impossible as it is not a remake - as of the trilogy, only one character (Jim Phelps) from the original appeared in the first movie. Willirennen 12:56, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Name

TV show isn't international and television show redirects to Television program so I'd suggest this be moved to List of films based on television programs - which fits with the other similar entries: Lists of film source material (looking down the list this is the main one that stands out as not being correctly named).

films later made into tv shows

what about logans run. it was a novel that was released as a film, then became a tv series. logans run is missing from your list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.183.134.128 (talk) 10:03, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

TV Based on Film, Not Film Based on TV

I just removed "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" from this list, since the television show of that name came after the film, not the other way around. Cal (talk) 16:38, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Bugs Bunny Feature Film?

should this be on the list? It was an edited together version of theatrical shorts, not based on the TV show. Quadparty (talk)

Proposed merger

I propose that the short page List of films based on television series sketches should be merged here. – Fayenatic London 17:17, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Proposed split

Also, how about splitting this page to create a new List of films based on television series? That should also include the section currently headed "Programs re-edited and released as feature length films", as I think all of those are series. Then the "programs" list could just hold the section on films based on TV pilots & episodes, plus the list of sketches (if the merger proposed above goes ahead). – Fayenatic London 17:17, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Veronica Mars

The tv show is being made into a movie in 2014. 120.144.203.52 (talk) 17:47, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

Sort chronogically

It would be nice to have a column with the year of the film release, and to have the list be sortable chronologically. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Subcelestial (talk • contribs) 20:14, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

This article's scope needs to be narrowed

I am quite sure that the original intent of this article was to cover theatrical films based on TV series. Instead, it has ballooned to include a bunch of television movie entries, which I'm pretty sure was not the original goal here.

I strongly suggest that this article's subject be refocused on just theatrical movie releases based on television programs.

And thoughts or objections? --IJBall (contribs • talk) 22:33, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

I still intend to narrow the focus of this list – I am hoping to get to it next month, if there are no objections before then... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 14:59, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
