If remade on TV, who'd be suited for Barnaby?

Personally, I think Sam Elliott would be a great choice now he's gone white haired himself and he's got the right age - and the voice for it. Talk about picture perfect, at least he'd be so here in my opinion. I think his attitude and whole laid back persona would work, and I'm sure he's got a lot of respect for Buddy Ebsen in general. Any other suggestions?

Justin Bieber. That's as old as they get now.

Chris Cooper.

Sam Elliot certainly looks the part but I'm not sure he's "genial" enough.

How about Gerald McRaney?

Shut up with these remakes!

We don't need anymore of them.

Agreed, Sam Elliot or Chris Cooper would be great choices.
