Any campaign ideas

So here we are 7 years into the website (give or take a few days near enough anyway.) I myself first came aware of this website after the 100 greatest kids TV shows on channel 4.
Since then I've become a member of this forum, signed the BBK guestbook, I even got a reply from channel 5 regarding an email I sent to them for them to repeat Knightmare. (I'm sure all of you have done similar things maybe more.)
I do believe in part that this website has managed to get challenge TV to show repeats of Knightmare, and I've enjoyed watching the repeats on challenge.
As well as that there has been several mentions of Knightmare series 9 by various people on here, and with Tim Child doing a new pilot show it looked quite hopeful at one stage.
However whilst watching repeats on challenge one thing bugged me. Whilst it was nice to watch the repeats (and I did enjoy it) and whilst its likely I might buy a DVD set of all 8 series should one come out, my thought was should they actually bother doing a new series. Would Knightmare series 9, ever be as good as the pervious 8. Would the Knew Knightmare, be as good as the old one? What if I didn't enjoy the Knew Knightmare as much as I enjoyed the old one.
For me I think seeing the repeats on challenge reminded me how much I loved the show when I was younger (which is why I'm a member of this forum,) but I did question whether a new series would actually ever be needed. Especially as TV companies took no interest in Tim Childs pilot show.
So what do others think?
