The Golden Girls is being revived with an all-black cast, which includes Regina King and Tracee Ellis Ross.

The iconic sitcom - which ran for seven season between 1985 and 1992 - revolved around the lives of four white women living together in Miami, but the new project will seek to 'reimagine' the situation from a black perspective.

Fans should not get too excited about the beloved program returning to the airwaves, however, as the revival appears to be a one-night special set to be broadcast over Zoom.

I am betting the show will be ultra filthy. Not because it’s black, it’s just those kind of shows always are

Maybe a remake of Ghostbusters would be better... oh wait...

It was right after gays became 35% of the country.

Actually, if someone told me that 35% of the country are pedophiles, I might believe them at this point.

Amen. I found them vulgar

Gee, thanks for all your patience.

In the movie "As Good As It Gets", Jack Nicholson's character struck gold with his portrayal of women:
"I think of a man, and I take away reason and accountability."

Nicholson is a great actor but I never found too many movies of his that I cared to see.

I reread what I wrote. I definitely should not have. I’m sorry.

I REMEMBER THAT!!!!!!!!!

It’s was pure crap!!!

Why does autocorrect f**k around when not needed? Why?

They already did the Honeymoooners with a black cast.

All this says to me is Hollywood isn’t creative enough to come up with new characters for black entertainers. It doesn’t speak well for the black community having to rely on “white” roles.

Exactly, what next Apollo 13 remake with 3 Black astronauts?
