6. Well by reboot I mean an all-new cast, but with fresh new stories.

The basic formula is comedy gold and can be updated for the times. You need your core cast of frenemy nerds who are struggling to make ends meet in the incubator. The eccentric, unpredictable billionaires pulling the strings will show up from time to time. Some will hit paydirt and make millions, others will fall on hard times. It's quite different from your standard office setting humor.
