Saw this in the latest TV Guide (Apologies in advance if this is old news)


Cool news!

Actually, it's both old news and new news, I think. A few years back, there was news that Leonardo DiCaprio and Jessica Biel wanted to reboot The Facts of Life (https://deadline.com/2018/08/the-facts-of-life-reboot-leonardo-dicaprio-appian-way-jessica-biel-in-talks-produce-1202439672/). Is this the same reboot effort or a new one? I'm not sure. But it's cool that things seem to be moving ahead.

A lot of these reboots aren't very good. I think Fuller House was a decent continuation, although the characters were Flanderized. I'd hope any reboot would have the original, full cast.

Reboot, schmeboot. I don't want a reboot. When I wanna see FOL, I watch FOL.

And that last sentence in the article doesn't make any sense.

Well, it does more if I would’ve posted the whole piece and not just the last paragraph.

Thanks for the article, Opus!

Been a rumour for years.

Thanks for the article, Opus!

I thought at first (mistakenly, I guess) that maybe only the reboot info in the article might be of interest here. You guys watch Collectors Call?

I don't get MeTV, but I know '80sSitcoms watches CC; he had detailed descriptions of some episodes. Not sure about anyone else here.

There were a few episodes on video sites, so I watched them, just for the Lisa content. It's funny because she always mentions how she never collects anything herself; Julie Pie is the one with a trunk full of binders of her Facts memorabilia.

Julie Pie also has a large collection of things from the New Mickey Mouse Club.

Well, her whole basement is a tribute to the New Mickey Mouse Club.

Sure do! If it comes back...:lookaroun

I don't get MeTV,

And today being St. Patrick's Day, you could say, "I don't get me TV." :lol:

Yeah, I have a handful saved on my DVR: Charlotte Rae, Jim Henson, and I think one or two more. I'm not sure if it's coming back or not, but I hope so.

The article Opus uploaded above says it's back for Season 3.

It do?? Why, saints preserve us! Thanks for mentioning that! I just Googled, and it starts March 27th. :woohoo:

Thanks for the heads-up on Collector's Call- was wondering when it would be back.

A Facts of Life revival, with the four core "girls," would be ideal -though unlikely to happen. It probably would be a reboot, even if Lisa appeared as Blair (as the show would be mostly new actors/characters).
