is it possible...? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

i don't know how many each season set has sold, but is it possible that if sales were enormous, FOL could return to TV? DVD sales have helped revive a lot of shows after all (Family guy, Future Rama, etc.)

i think its a lot easier to do that with animated shows - I doubt you'd be able to get the 4 girls to come back for a new version of the series.

I agree about the original cast, but there's nothing stopping either a revival (same show and characters with different actresses) or a continuation (relatives of the original characters, though you'd have to pretend that Jamie wasn't already eleven at the time of the 2001 reunion). Maybe one of the original actresses could be signed for a guest appearance or two, most likely Mindy (although I'd definitely tune in to see Lisa or Nancy, neither one seems to want to act anymore, outside of Nancy's occasional appearances on Sonny with A Chance, and Kim's new deal may preclude her from appearing on anther network).

^ Agreed. If Nancy McKeon turned down the reunion movie, I doubt she would do a revival show. Lisa might now that her kids are grown, Mindy might, and who knows about Kim. Charlotte Rae is in her mid-80s and I don't think anyone would want to see Mrs. G in a rest home!!

I would rather see the reruns play again on a national network!

I wouldn't want to see a revival show......look at what they did with 90210 and Melrose Place. Let's stick with the original in reruns.

I wouldn't want a real revival show unless the real girls were in it.
