Any past packs you would be happy if they recreated almost exactly for newer games?

This can be a discussion around either future packs for The Sims 4 or packs you'd like to see recreated whenever The Sims 5 might come out. I decided to start this discussion after watching a video about the spells from The Sims Makin' Magic and MY GOD were they awesome! Looking into it more I remembered you had to earn magic coins as well as simoleons in order to be able to live in the magic world which I think is a fantastic touch also. Ultimately for me, obviously this would have to be a Sims 5 thing, I would be very happy if a magic pack was essentially Makin' Magic recreated and I haven't even remembered every element of it yet.
So I wanted to put the question out there, are there any packs from the past that you think have been done so well that you would like to see them recreated almost exactly?

Yes! Mrs Crumplebottom while annoying always made me laugh.
This would be amazing. I was literally just thinking about having that recreated would be the perfect balance to the magic of Makin' Magic in relation to realism. The hobby system gave extra depth to each sim and the lifetime aspiration bar gives even more meaning to events in their life. It seems like The Sims 4 won't be giving us this as it'll be one stuff pack at a time instead which is unfortunate.
I have never played Generations but I always hear such great things about it. Would you mind listing some of the things you liked about it just for my brain?
High-Loft Stuff with the Heartshape Bed
MasterSuite Stuff with the Romantic Sleepwears
Generations with Bunkbeds & Teen Graduations
Supernatuals with Fairies, Genies & Moonlight Falls
Showtime with Drums
Pets with Birds & Horses
70s 80s 90s Stuff
Into the Future with Time Travel
Ambitions with Time Machine & Twinbrook
World Adventures with China, Egypt & France
I didn't like Sims 3, but I have massive respect for it.
It's super immersive and tons of nice things. So much, I'm going to make a second bullet-point list in one post.
The Sims 4 hasn't introduced a new musical instrument since 2017
As far as packs from the main series I wouldn't mind
from Sims 1:
from Sims 2:
from Sims 3:
I don't think I'll ever love a University pack again the way I loved it in Sims 2.
Family Tree
Playing Mod & CC Free
Sims 3 - Generations
At this point I think my list has become:
Makin Magic (The Sims 1)
Freetime (The Sims 2)
Generations (The Sims 3)
As they say, if it aint broke, don't fix it.
I want dragons added back in too. I read somewhere that apparently if you use the spell to turn a sim into a toad a dragon can eat them. I don't think I ever knew this when I played it.
I have really fond memories of The Sims 2 university also. I think if they kept the core of it really similar but added a few smaller features from other packs. For instance I like the student loans system in The Sims 4 but they needed to have made them more money for them to actually mean anything.
Yes, I think that's my favourite, ever. But, I did like Generations, too - the dreams and nightmares for kids and teens, and yes, the imaginary friends. There were new interactions for elders, too, as I recall.
Also, the apartments and retail system in TS4 could never compare to Apartment Life and Open for Business.
TS3 Generations would also be nice. Parenthood is good, but that's just one aspect.
Race Against the Clock: Can your elder sim turn back the clock before their time runs out?
From the sims 2, I would say Free time, Open for Business, Apartment Life, Mansion and Garden, and Teen stuff pack.
From the sims 3, Hands down Generations! I also liked Ambitions (Firefighter and ghost hunting career were cool) and Island Paradice.
