My primary grievances are the following: the stripping away of all emotional depth of the characters (and everything else) and ham-handedly leaving only the exaggerated emotional complexity of the original show, the removal of one of the primary themes (twins and using them as an insight into the nature of family) and replacing it with a stereotypical and boring wife-and-child-died-oh-noes sub-plot, the removal of two of the primary characters (Raines and fan-favorite Broots) and then replacing them with one-dimensional and annoying characters (whose names are chosen only to make really terrible jokes repeatedly), the endless brand names mentioned every few paragraphs (I hope the royalties they must have been collecting to be that annoying were worth it.), the removal of the mystery of The Centre (people are just using SL-27 from the start, which was a mystery that was one of the best parts of the show), and the fact that they no longer seem to have Jarod force the confession from the baddie-of-the-week (while it's true that wouldn't stand up in court, it also provides emotional satisfaction for the audience ).
