Do you think Vicky would even consider a show on Netflix with the original cast? 10 episodes would be easy to write.

I'm a HUGE fan of MF but I say NO WAY to a reboot.

It simply wouldn't work. All of Mama's family would look older than her. It'd be just weird.

Well, I would like to see that! I think it would be fun and nice to catch up with the crew. Maybe center around Tiffany and her kids with Mama being great grandma! The other crew can drop in throughout the show.

Years ago, this might have worked. Not anymore. No way in the world Ken Berry, Carol Burnett and Betty White could pass for Mama's kids anymore. Two of them are in their 80s and Betty White is 96. Not like years ago when they were in their 40s or 50s but could pass for younger.
As much as I'd love for there to be a show with the family, it just isn't feasible with the original cast, or at least most of them.

It makes me wonder, would Carol have the energy to play Eunice still? I al curious what an 80 year old Eunice would be like.
