A few things I'd like to see back-
Whose Line Is It Anyway- I know there's a few people on here who don't like it, but I think in an age where panel shows dominate the comedy output of most channels, WLIIA would offer something unique and different. I would love to see how some modern comics could perform in the improv format (David Mitchell for example). And it would hopefully get Tony Slattery back on our screens once again.
The Smell of Reeves and Mortimer- They have said they want to do a new sketch show, and this was by far their best work IMO. I'd far rather see them in this sort of format than doing more Shooting Stars. And I'm sure most of the supporting cast would be happy to return (Paul Whitehouse certainly would, based on the fact he's doing awful insurance adverts now).
A few othe things. I'd like to see Jasper Carrot do another standup TV show, rather than being stuck presenting game shows. How about we get Adam and Joe back on our screens again in another format. And I'd also like to see a new series of Absolute Power, the most undderated sitcom this decade IMO.
And I also agree that a new Matthew Holness series would be awesome, as well as something new by Fry and Laurie (I'm sure Stephen Fry said a while back that they wanted to do something new, but due to Hugh's commitments in America they haven't had time to make any progress with it)
