This movie is so incredibly stupid that I love the hell out of it:

Anybody else have this sort of paradoxical attachment to REALLY silly SF?

Obviously, I'd do 'Neutron Star' as the pilot episode. Heck, you could do an awful lot of good stuff if you just limited the series to Beowulf Schaeffer stories, use him as a series narrator as well as its primary hero.

But I'd love to see something more free-form, where you could slip in earlier stuff, like 'World of Ptaavs,' and even start your series chronology on the Pak world itself. You just don't need to present it all in rigid chronological order, is all... *grin*...
