And I'd add Bewitched (although I'm willing to admit that was because a "phew, that didn't suck" movie on an airplane is like gold) and, in the SNL sketch category, Ladies Man.
If it's possible to have kept a show funny for 10 seasons, it's possible to turn it into a good movie. But as Alex predicted before the movie came out, they stuck with the standard ruts the character franchise has fallen into over the last 8 years. They risked nothing and as a result gained nothing.
