A Facts of Life reboot

All of the old gang is back (adult Natalie, Blair, Tootie, Jo) and now they run a board school. Except they all have sons, so it's a boys' boarding school?

Would you watch it?

I probably wouldn't watch. Even if it was a success, it'd be geared to people decades younger than me, and not be all that much like the original show.

If Mindy is on it, yes.

I would watch it!

A "board school"? Do they teach children to make boards? That might get kind of dull, though I am sure Jo is an absolute whiz with a planing machine.

So they're all fraus now?

That might be a better idea, Facts of Life 2020, with the same cast, instead of trying to reboot it with children again.

R4 Gee, I wonder if he meant boarding school - hard to figure out, huh sweetheart?

A good idea with the sons. Having daughters/girls would just inevitably invite unfavorable comparisons to the original cast.

Does George Clooney make a cameo?

Are they fucking each other's sons?

Are the sons fucking each other?

All the boys wanna fuck Natalie. She's a cougar in this series and invites the boys over to swim in her pool dressed like this, R10.

Fuck no, I wouldn't watch that shit.

They should a parody-type movie like The Brady Bunch Movie.

I would watch a reboot if they were also on it.

Depends. How old are these boys again?

r7 = irony-challenged.

HELL NO

After each girl experiences a major set back, they all move into the only property Blair still owns. A house in Miami. Cloris Leachman rejoins the cast as the feisty and rambunctious Beverly Ann.

I'll watch it if Marj Dusay and Nicolas Coster are regulars as Blair's parents.

Remember the episode where they imagined they were still living together in their twilight years? They could just use that as the pilot of the reboot.

I don't think this is going to happen, I think Mindy is attached to that new Poltergeist prequel that focuses on Tangina...

A boys school, no. It would have to be a gender inclusive school, supporting transgender and nonbinary students. It would also have to reflect racial, ethnic, and income diversity.

In the 40 years since the shocking death (murder?!) of Miss Mahoney (found in the stables, an apparent weed bong overdose), Molly Parker has never been back to Eastland. She swore she would NEVER!! Now a successful menopausal segment producer for VICE Media and tired of seeing all the stories that *matter* getting assigned to halfwits half her age, Molly sees a line item in an old Safeway flyer at her liquor store mentioning that half a dozen old classmates have been disappearing, one by one, from their lives. So, Molly finds herself driving her dad's Dodge Dart back through downtown Peekskill looking to settle some scores, to keep her job, and to come to terms with her past! Oh, and to maybe solve a murder(s)?!!

Coming this fall from Cottonelle Studios!
