Bravo has heard our cries and is planning a series based on 1992 camp classic Death Becomes Her . Sadly, not all adaptation ideas are created equal.
These are the upcoming projects it's worth getting excited over. Sure, they could be duds, but there's potential for greatness.
Beverly Hills Cop
The 21 Jump Street movie proved just how much we needed a good cop action comedy. Now we're going from film to TV with CBS' Beverly Hills Cop series, which will be transformed into a gritty drama, I guess? Just kidding. This could be a lot of fun, especially since Eddie Murphy will be involved. Remember Beverly Hills Cop Eddie Murphy? You liked him.

Hannibal
I wasn't so sure about this one -- there's an annoying trend toward overexplaining serial killers these days. But the NBC series about Hannibal Lecter actually seems kind of promising. It helps that Hannibal is a fascinating character, and not only because he eats people. It also helps that Hugh Dancy is involved.

Death Becomes Her
Let's first acknowledge and mourn the fact that we will never get another Meryl Streep-Goldie Hawn showdown. Still, a Death Becomes Her series could be a dark comic gem: two characters who can't die trying to kill each other? Think Tom & Jerry meets American Horror Story.
