I once asked what media franchises need to just stop, that have run their time. Now I want to know which ones DID stop, and could be restarted with new content.

Andromeda. Yeah, the Kevin Sorbo show.
The premise is actually great, and the overall plot until Robert Wolfe got pushed out showed a lot of promise. The poisonous factor largely came from Sorbo wanting to intentionally turn the show into campy trash, and TV executives who somehow agreed with him.
Reboot the show, get actors who won’t sabotage production, and hire some half decent writers who want to do a Star Trek-like new franchise.
A lot of the ideas of andromeda ended up in the later seasons of star trek discovery
I would watch that. I loved that show for the first few seasons.
It was originally envisioned by Gene Roddenberry, hence the quality of the concept.
I’ll be honest, I’ve no idea if that’s a codemnation or an endorsement lol.
I like Trek just fine, but it almost entirely stems from catching TNG episodes on daytime TV growing up, as well as the memes. My understanding was that TNG didn’t start to get gud until Roddenberry had largely been sidelined.
