I doubt this. I can't imagine there would be an interest in a reboot, considering 1/3 of the cast is dead and all of the kids are in their 60s or older. I mean, seriously, what would the episodes be about? Marcia had a hip replacement, Greg had a heart attack, and Peter joined the AARP? I honestly think she is saying this to be relevant. I've heard several of her podcasts and she sounds like a lunatic (and I couldn't care less about her opinions).

This is beyond ridiculous if it is true. The Bradys only work in comedy fashion. The drama reboot was horrible i.e. Marcia became and alcoholic, Bobby got paralyzed, etc.
So I would love to see the scripts of having comedy in their older lives with trans children and interracial marriages.
I dont think Susan is anti-gay at all. Her TV father was gay and I dont think she is against the gay community. I also don't think its a reasonable to compare her situation with Roseanne. If true, her situation is far worse. No matter what Roseanne had to be fired. I think the show Roseanne is in the top 3 of all time sitcoms. However Roseanne tweeted something extremely racist while in the middle of an ABC show. She called a black Obama advisor an ape or from Planet of the Apes. Call it cancel or whatever you want but you cant allow that in the middle of a series. Susan had a private exchange that was not public during any show. It was only released after to hurt her and she has apologized for it. It was many years ago too. No comparison IMHO. It would be like if during the HGTV series she tweeted something anti-gay towards Robert Reed or another person. HGTV would have let her go right away. If I had to spend a weekend with a Brady character it would be Susan. She knows all the Brady trivia because she was the only one watching the show in real time. I loved her contributions to the Variety Hour book. Having said all this, her thoughts are very out there. I am probably far more conservative than her and a real libertarian. How she can say the people that beat and killed cops on 1/6 are political prisoners is very disturbing. However there is only one Cindy Brady. I would not let her beliefs be a distraction for putting her on a show unless she was actively saying crazy stuff on social media.

Well, they could’ve brought back Jennifer Runyon to play Cindy.

The fans don't even care. It's the studio execs.
