Why can't it be both? That would take it to the next level.
This could be huge.

Are we expected, or are any of you writing these pilots/episodes in a standard single/multi cam format?
Good question. I wouldn't bother with it. It isn't needed.The vast majority of shows today are shot single camera. Multi camera format is still used in a few sitcoms, but is most used in reality and game shows, or talk shows. Multi camera was best used decades ago when sitcoms were filmed in front of live audiences as well.
Don't worry over setups. Some of our peers might call us out on setups anyway. Not worthh the time. That's just my thoughts.

Thanks for the advice.
What sucks that I'm putting a lot of backstory into my show, and I know I'll never to be able to expand past the pilot. Well, I could write it as personal fan fiction, but I don't want to, haha.
Important question. Does the reboot need to share the same plot/characters as the original series? Or can the reboot be it's own thing with just minor references to the original series?
I'm ten pages in and need to know if I need to scrap this thing and start over.
No, the reboot doesn't need to share same plot and characters. Actually, it's advised that you change those. That's the inference I drew from what DanC said so far. But you can always wait for Danc to confirm.
So keep on writing for now. DanC is hugging his teddy bear now. He will be back tomorrow.
