To be fair, GT actually had quite a bit of both (adventure with going to other planets for the black star dragon balls and such). That may have been why it sucked though; trying to please people with both those formulas.
Don't worry people I've thought about this for ten years now, and I have it all figured out.
The Battle of Gods and Ressurection F movies are going to be retconned.
The Z-Fighters will encounter an enemy too powerful for them to beat, but he's not just more powerful, he's infinitely more powerful. So Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Goten and Trunks have to go Super Saiyan Infinity to beat him, but it's still not enough. So Piccolo have to fuse with all the Namekians in the Multiverse (which now is infinite universes) to beat this new bad guy. Piccolo becomes abstract and intangible and gains a plethora of nigh-omnipotent powers with which he creates new multiverses which he then governs as God.
And in case you wonder why the Multiverse isn't destroyed by them simply powering up it's because they subconsciously use part of their power to reenforce the universe they're in.
In the next saga they learn that the Saiyans, while being SSJω, ω was just countable infinite and they eventually have to unlock the uncountable ordinals with inaccessible cardinals because baddie #2 is even more powerful than Piccolo could ever be.
And at the end of the series we'll see Super Saiyan Omnipotent Vegito fighting baddie #3.
Honestly though, I just can't really see how this new series would be successful at all. They need to just come out with new shit, instead of remaking the same crap over and over. I don't see them being capable of doing that, in an entire new series.

Well yeah, in terms of just sales. I mean that I think it will be shitty, in general.
Something new, and refreshing that they could do, which would be interesting, is make a series about Future Trunks, and his adventures, after going back to the future.
I think adding a dozen new forms to characters who already have several, and making them so strong that nothing in the universe can ever hope to hurt them, is just stupid. I miss the days when Frieza in first form was stronger than everyone else combined.

Aye, and miss the days when Piccolo and other Z-fighters were actually relevant supporting characters (able to put something of a dent into the main villains, even if it wasn't their final form).
Yeah, no kidding. Now we have everyone getting one-shotted by chopsticks.
I miss when Krillin could actually KILL a main villain, from getting lucky enough to tag them with a kienzan or something, and Piccolo was almost JUST as strong as Goku, but with regeneration, and even stronger attacks(Makkankosappo). Hell, Piccolo used to be Martian manhunter, to Goku's Superman. But now he's like... Green Arrow compared to the Anti-monitor. Or Nekron.

Sigh...people complaining. Just enjoy the new DBZ show that is coming out. If it isn't interesting, ignore it and continue your adventure watching Naruto. The new Generation needs DBZ so that it can be a forever title. Kids don't need to cling to old showings when they can make new series to get new customers/fans up to date. This is going to be good. We get new villains. We can see more showings of Goku, Vegeta, the entire Z world. Questions will be answered. Glad Akira is taking this approach and after this, I hope he continues down this road with making new shows.
So I just got all the DBZ manga(as in all of Dragonball from Raditz onwards) and tore through them in a couple days(with the exception of volumes 2-5 which I sadly don't own).
It ranks right up there with Ippo, Death Note, and Deadman Wonderland for manga I just adore. It was a blast to read and it really is remarkable how well it still holds up. My only complaint is that some of the fights happen too fast and even then I only complain because I want to see more of the fights in action. If "it made me want more" is the closest thing to a complain I can give it then it is pretty great imo.
Honestly was GT that bad?
Pan and kid goku adventures in the beginning was terrible, but other than that it was pretty good imo.
Once they got back to the "earth heroes taking down the new threat" It was enjoyable.
Best part for me is when the "gang" is trying to live normal life. Like a DBZ sitcom.
The action was meh, imo. None of the tension, build ups, or explosive action and choreography..
Basically, it's like comparing luke warm product that is modern day WWE with the fantastic in every way NXT.

GT was ultimate-shitty in the first, like... 10 episodes, but it actually progressed into a pretty enjoyable series, once they started making actual villains again. Like Baby, and Super 17. Even Omega was pretty cool, imo. Although, he was basically a composite version of every other DBZ villain. I also liked SSJ4. Especially because it was so unique. Instead of just less eyebrow, more mane, and more lightning, like the rest of the SSJ forms.
