Posted on 08/06/2018 7:04:22 PM PDT by EdnaMode

With reboots being the biggest craze in Hollywood, it might be fun to predict which classic (and not so classic) shows might be rebooted next.

1. Mister/Miss Ed.

In this reboot, the famed talking horse is gender fluid and trans species. On some days, the horse identifies as male, and others as female. He/she/xe also identifies as a cat, a penguin, and a rooster on occasion.

2. Punky Brewster

In this reboot. Punky, an undocumented immigrant from Mexico is separated from her parents at the border. Her parents are deported and Punky is adopted by Henry, her new foster father.

3. Mary Richards

In this remake of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Lena Dunham stars as Mary Richards. Set on election night in 2016, the pilot shows as a staff of journalists coming to grips with the election of Donald Trump.

4. Cheers

In this remake, a group of gay friends gather together at the local gay bar. They must deal with homophobia on a weekly basis. Sam the bartender is gender binary who is addressed as "they" and "them" by "their" colleagues.

5. ER

Set in East Los Angeles, the show features a cast of illegal alien characters who use the local ER as their primary care physician.

6. I Love Lucy

Ricky Ricardo, an undocumented Mexican immigrant and musician, marries Lucy, a transgender aspiring actress. Their landlords are Fred and Ethel, who are undocumented immigrants from Somalia.

7. Saved by the Bell: The Activist Years.

Jessie, Kelly and Lisa, who are now college professors at UCLA, must fight their sexist male fellow professors, who all earn more money than they do.

8. I Married David

Based on the short lived sitcom "I Married Dora." This series features a wealthy man who marries his undocumented housekeeper. This time, the housekeeper is a gay man and MS13 gang member and the two men marry in the pilot.

The Andy Griffith Show reboot where Andy and Aunt Bee admit that they’ve been getting it on for years . . . which explains why Andy never remarried. Opie becomes disgusted with this revelation and becomes a priest.

‘My Favorite Martian’. A Roswell crash surviving alien somehow escapes captivity at Area 51, makes his way to LA and moves in with a black and white lesbian couple, their 13 year old tranny kid and a 3 legged dog. After 70 years of being called a freak by his ex-captor scientists, he now wonders just who the freaks really are. Caitlan Jenner guest stars in the pilot as the screwy neighbor who puts her/his/it’s moves on the Alien....

Three’s company

Three completely straight guys move into a rent controlled condo in West Hollywood for $500 a month. To keep it, they have to pretend to landlord Mr. Furley, an older gay activist with a great collection of scarves, that they really are gay, even when he keeps hitting on them when they are trying to sneak actual girls into the condo. Bring back Don Knotts fromthe dead too for this. He is married to Mr. Roper, who is finally into sex, but Furley wants younger meat.

Too late. They do. It’s in a rehab home for patients who have suffered strokes. Lots of sex with the nurses and lots of ablist mobility humor.
