excuse my head explody there.... :cheeky:
I think Thief would be best in an anime. You could keep the original voices, and get a nice, thiefsy feel, COMPLETE WITH CAPPUCINO! :laff: But im not talkin Pokemon-style anime, im talkin maybe something along the lines of Vampire Hunter D type anime. And if you dont know what Vampire Hunter D is, i want you to kill yourself. not really, just watch it, foo!

actually, that WOULD be interesting. anyone who's ever seen VHD: bloodlust (*raises hand*) would agree that that particular art style lends itself very well to thief.
as far as live action would go, i'm not so sure a TV series would be the best idea, unless it were a short run, maybe two seasons at the most. it would have to have a very high production quality, and it has to be kept the fuck AWAY from other "non-standard" (i.e. procedural dramas, reality shows, 'dramadies', etc.) programs such as buffy or the 35982095 sci-fi shows i see. if i had my way, in terms of visuals it'd probably be something like "brimstone" (which was awesome and fox are a bunch of goatraping bastards for cancelling it. as i understand it the newly hired president of FOX at the time (formerly pres of comedy central) wanted to get rid of shows like millennium and brimstone and even x-files and replace them with more "standard" fare.)

yeah and then they could do spin-offs with other TV-shows.
Thief: 24 - Garrett has 24 hours to solve a terrorist conspiracy that threatens the city.
Thief: Lost - Garrett wakes up on a desert island filled with mystery and love triangles
Thief Trek: Garrett robs aliens!
Thief: Starsky & Garrett - Garrett joins the city watch and busts drug dealers
Oh my the sordid depths this thread is sinking to... :rolleyes:

How about Joe Thief – Garrett looks for a wife?! :

What about My Name Is Garrett (instead of Earl)? When Garrett has to use his thief skills to right the things he has wronged and become a believer of karma? And his side kick to assist him would be Benny! :cheeky: It would work if they were retired hobos. :joke:

people, please, this is a SERIOUS CONVERSATION. :nono:
ah, fuck it. CSI: the city. it could work.

or one of them reality cop shows:
Tonight on "City Watch", the watch chases it's own as Benny is arrested for being drunk in charge of a bicycle. Plus, the serial burglar who keeps whacking people on the head. And later we'll have a special report on the guy who keeps slashing all the banners around the City. But first tonight, we're live from the rooftop of Lady Van Vernon's house as three men die in a bloody shootout...
