In the case of Friday the 13th, it was announced last year that the series was in the works at the CW.
The 1987 Friday the 13th: The Series was the last time the property was given its chance on TV and although it ran for 3 seasons, the series was (for lack of a better word) terrible.
CW’s Friday The 13thseries had reportedly been set to follow a detective as he searched for his long lost brother.
It’s disheartening that Friday the 13th has been abandoned as a TV series, particularly because being too dark was listed as one of the reasons for not moving forward.
