Subject: Forget About a Facts of Life Reboot

Written By: LyricBoy on 07/25/24 at 4:49 pm

Facts of Life starlet Mindy Cone has come out and said that the reboot is never gonna happen, due to the actions of “a greedy biatch”. :o

She doesn’t name names, but apparently clues indicate that perhaps she is referring to the lovely Lisa Whelchel. :-* :-\\

It would be nice to have a reboot now that the women are much older in their 50's and to see how they deal with their lives in this day and age.

I can wonder how the girls today from The Facts Of Life during The early 80's would deal with today's problems, it would be fun to write a script for that.

Then how about a Different Strokes reboot instead?

It would have to be called the Todd Bridges Show.

Mary Jo Catlett is still on our side of the grass. She could reprise her role too.  8)

I agree, unless you recast some other actors and actress for the original roles, like who could play Arnold, Kimberly and/or Mr. Drummond, they probably wouldn't be able to find who could fill the shoes of them.

They could do like what they did with One Day At A Time. Instead of trying to recreate the characters, create new ones in a similar situation.

Exactly, and fit the characters to put them in today's world and see how they would deal with today's problems.

I’d go with Chris Rock.

I was thinking maybe Eddie Murphy since he's known for his disguises especially in Coming To America and some of his others.
