"While promoting his guest turn as an angry giant on ABC&amp;#039;s Once Upon a Time - don&amp;#039;t ask - former Lost star Jorge Garcia of course had to field questions about his role as the loveable Hurley... Garcia stated that he would &amp;quot;consider&amp;quot; a Lost spinoff film, adding that he&amp;#039;d &amp;quot;have to see what the script is&amp;quot; first - but do even the most hardened Lost fans really want a movie at this late stage? Joss Whedon&amp;#039;s Firefly is mostly to blame for this trend of refusing to let a good piece of cult telly rest in peace. When the sci-fi Western series was cruelly cut off in its prime by Fox, Whedon led the charge to the multiplexes, rounding off the story he wanted to tell with the excellent Serenity. In that case, a post-axe revival worked - Firefly was never really given a fair shot on original transmission, so there was both demand from fans to see a follow-up and the desire on Whedon&amp;#039;s part to make one. But what would be the point in a follow-up to Lost - a show that had a long and healthy life span and came to a natural conclusion? Some cult shows simply don&amp;#039;t need a movie spinoff or a reunion special - sometimes, it&amp;#039;s best to leave well alone. This week&amp;#039;s Week in Geek blog takes a look at a few of the series that have been the subject of revival rumours in recent years and asks... could they come back, and do we want them too? &amp;gt; Week in Geek - Supernatural: The greatest episodes from the cult drama &amp;gt; Week in Geek - Misfits returns: A new cast, a killer rabbit and the Four Horsemen Heroes   How It Ended: Tim Kring&amp;#039;s NBC sci-fi drama came to an end after four seasons, climaxing on something of a cliffhanger as Claire (Hayden Panettiere) revealed her powers to an unsuspecting world. Could It Come Back? At one time, it seemed so - Kring would often talk up his plans for a Heroes TV movie that would wrap up any story threads left dangling by the show&amp;#039;s cancellation. But now, with almost three years having passed since the show ended and many of its stars otherwise engaged, a follow-up would be nigh on impossible. Should It Come Back? As great as Heroes was at its peak, NBC dropped the axe for a reason - the show was pretty much running on empty by the end. We think this is a perfect example of a show that we loved at the time, but that shouldn&amp;#039;t be jolted back to life.  Jericho   How It Ended: Nobody watched Jericho so CBS cancelled it. The show&amp;#039;s loyal army of fans protested. CBS brought Jericho back. Still nobody watched it. CBS cancelled it again. Could It Come Back? Rather bizarrely it seems that it very well could - despite being off our screens for over four-and-a-half years, Jericho reportedly attracted the attention of Netflix earlier this year, with star Lennie James telling us that he would &amp;quot;definitely be interested&amp;quot; in reprising his role of Robert Hawkins. Should It Come Back? We think so - an on-demand service like Netflix would be the perfect home for Jericho, a series that never pulled in huge audiences but engendered massive dedication in a small amount of hardcore fans. The Event   How It Ended: NBC&amp;#039;s attempt to launch a Lost-esque televisual phenomenon flopped rather badly - The Event began with decent figures in 2010 but ratings later fell to below 4 million, leading to the show&amp;#039;s axe after a single season. Could It Come Back? Nope. Never. Not a chance in hell. Last year, NBC&amp;#039;s Robert Greenblatt claimed that a television movie sequel was still &amp;quot;possible&amp;quot; but even old faithful Syfy weren&amp;#039;t keen on the prospect - presumably they put the money towards financing Sharktopus or something instead. Should It Come Back? Let&amp;#039;s face it, The Event wasn&amp;#039;t much cop the first time around - we suspect the world can do without a reheated follow-up. The River  How It Ended: ABC&amp;#039;s horror drama from Paranormal Activity&amp;#039;s Oren Peli ran for just eight episodes earlier this year before being unceremoniously dumped from the network&amp;#039;s schedule. Could It Come Back? Doubtful - though Netflix initially showed some interest in staging an Arrested Development-style resurrection here, the online provider ultimately passed on picking up The River for a second season. Should It Come Back? An underrated gem, The River was certainly creatively strong enough to justify a revival and, like Firefly before it, never really got a fair crack of the whip. We&amp;#039;d love to see it back. Locke &amp;amp; Key   How It Ended: An unaired pilot, Fox&amp;#039;s adaptation of the Locke &amp;amp; Key comic series nevertheless built up a cult following - partly due to interest in the source material and partly due to screenings at Comic Con and other fan events. Could It Come Back? Perhaps not in its original form, but quite possibly yes - the latest reports have Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez&amp;#039;s work being eyed up for a movie adaptation. Should It Come Back? The original comic is certainly fertile material for a TV show or movie and the original Fox pilot was interesting if flawed - we&amp;#039;d be happy to give Locke &amp;amp; Key another shot. Which cult shows do you think deserve a comeback? And which should be left on the scrapheap? Let us know below! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
