I just had another wonderful idea... Seinfeld: the adventure game about nothing! You try to get out of work as George, come up with strange new business ventures for Kramerica Industries as Kramer, etc... It'd probably be pretty expensive to get permission and the original cast back, though. Not to mention the story would be kinda... uh... nothing...
Also, a more plausable idea, Back to the Future: the Game: Season 2!! If the first game does well, of course.
Predator.... or Alien..... or Driving Miss Daisy the point and click adventure game.... only with Winslow as the driver... admit it.... you would play that game.
More Monkey Island - I want this the most. I think Telltale really wants to do it too, given what they've said before, but it's all up to LucasArts.
More Sam & Max - I think it's bound to happen in some form. Sam & Max is to Telltale as Toy Story is to Pixar, it's their flagship series and they own the rights to it.
More Wallace & Gromit - Eeehhhh...maybe. There are better ways to use Telltale's talent, I think, though I did enjoy the first three episodes a lot.
More Strong Bad - I don't think this is too out of the question, given that SB featured in Poker Night, and SB is getting released on PSN/Mac and iPad. However, it was my least favourite Telltale series, so maybe just stick to using him in "At the Inventory?".
More Bone - Not happening. It's been years, and the license is in new hands now.
More Puzzle Agent - It's likely, given all the promotion it's gotten (I have like four copies of the game now :P ) However, I didn't LOVE Puzzle Agent, and I'd be kindof annoyed if they did a full season of PA rather than a new Monkey Island or something.
More "At the Inventory" - I think Telltale have got something in mind, given those audio samples, this seems likely to me.
So in conclusion, I'd like a new Monkey Island season the most, and I'm sure Telltale would love to do it too, but in terms of how likely any of these are to happen, they'll probably develop one of their pilot programmes further.

You, sir, are genius! How I'd LOVE to see someone pull that off. A game about nothing would be really challenging to make but if done just the right way would be awesomeness.
Personally, I'm hoping for a new Strong Bad season. Don't get me wrong, I'd jump for joy if they announced a new Puzzle Agent, or Monkey Island, or whatnot, but SBCG4AP was what introduced me to Telltale. I've got a soft spot for the game.
It would make for a very fun adventure game. By the same author and in the same style, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency could work well as an adventure game as well.

They should totally do that. It could definately work because they had that text adventure game...
I haven't read Dirk Gently, yet. I probably should, sometime.
If you don't have much time to read, I'd suggest getting the audiobook. It's a very nice story as well as the sequel (The Long Dark Tea Time Of The Soul).
Or alternatively, the BBC started a Dirk Gently tv series, but I haven't had the chance to see it yet.
"The Long Dark Tea Time Of The Soul" I've heard of that one. I love the way the name sounds funny, yet sad and dramatic at the same time. Maybe I'll read them this summer. I read all the Hitchhiker's Guide books last summer. If they're by the same author, I'll probably like these ones, too.
Nobody seems to have mentioned it, possibly because nobody's played it yet, but on blind faith alone, I sure wouldn't mind if they got started on "Back to the Future: The Game Part II" right away...
Most likely, however, I think would be "Murder at the Inventory", followed by another Sam and Max game, and perhaps even a Penny Arcade game.
In the opening sequence of Back to the Future : The Game when Marty wakes up there is a movie poster for Weird Science on his wall, with the characters in the same cartoon/3D model as the BTTF game.
I hope this is a nice little easter egg and a teaser for a Weird Science game, would be awesome!
already made:
1- puzzle agent/ _ at the inventory
2- SMNMX
3- W and G
4- MI5 (ToMI was the 6th MI)
Other:
futurama
Invader ZIM (Basend on the episodes and the movie that were cancelled)
danger mouse/count duckula
aquila/bernard's watch
dexter
addams family
Oh i'd like to see that too.
Anyway, it may sound a little too much "fanboy", but i think Telltale can handle ANY good license. They have awesome writers in the staff, and they know what's Video Game is really about.
I can't wait to see how far they will go.
Well, this would be (of course) eb thinking once BTTF and JP are done, Telltale could do....
From franchises TTG have already touched once:
-Tales of Monkey Island: Season 2
-Puzzle agent
-Sam & Max Season 4
-More of the "At the Inventory" series
Things they could do from other franchises:
-Futurama (Whotever thought of this is win. A futurama point and clikc could work in so many levels)
-Animaniacs (I keep saying it's a good idea! why nobody besides me thinks so? )
-Day of the Tentacle/ Maniac Mansion
-Indiana Jones
-Darkwing Duck
Tales started in 2009; I think the final months of 2011 to the early half of 2012 is a big enough gap between entries for Telltales most successful series thus far. I'd be very surprised if the next non-pilot game after Jurassic Park wasn't Monkey Island.
Gargoyles was produced by Disney and I don't know anything about this sort of thing but from what I've read in various sources, I don't imagine Disney is the easiest company to collaborate with as far as license negotiations.
Telltale will bust out a Street Sharks adventure game that will blow everyone away. Then Street Sharks will be remade into a new TV series that sucks.
After the extremely successful Street Sharks adventure game, Telltale will unleash Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: the Adventure Game. Again, people will be blown away, and Telltale will be deemed "Earth Gods"

Battle Toads will be resurrected in the distant future. The current technology that Telltale uses to create adventure games just cannot handle the pure awesomeness that is Battle Toads.
In a world where virtual reality is the mainstream, Battle Toads: the Adventure Game reigns supreme. See you in 50 years, boys.

Or at least that's what happens in my dreams.
The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy

Oh god yes that would be awesome

If they do make a game, I think, I'd like to see the characters look more like they do in the movie than they do in the TV series.

yeah that would be cool and get Doc Hammer & Jackson Publick to write it because the funny spuff they did on the venture bros of them

Can't use same name twice in MI series. That would have to be "Something Else of Monkey Island"
Animaniacs would be a killer!
Edit: *Sigh* not the case
You're a genius.

What about Battle Toads?
In a world where virtual reality is the mainstream, Battle Toads: the Adventure Game reigns supreme. See you in 50 years, boys.
Unless you're SquareEnix
Is it possible to get the rights for that? If would SO buy it. Please Telltale.
