One bit of trivia I recall about the show was that Mickey Rooney was originally offered the role of Archie, but he thought that the show was unpatriotic in it’s viewpoint and thus turned the offer down. Harrison Ford was offered the role of Mike, but did not like the argumentative nature of the show and refused as well.

Entire cast is part of the Democrat Hate-Trump media mob. On second thought, I’ll take a pass on this.

I think it’s funny that the biggest breakout star from A Different World(a black spinoff of The Cosby Show) was a white woman, Marisa Tomei.

I’d would have liked to have seen Hogan’s Heroes get a proper wrap.

“they could not make America like them...............”

Thereby proving it’s a challenge to like liberals. Even fake ones.

Ask Murphy Brown. She was rebooted and shortly thereafter booted out the door; not seen in many a moon. Candice Bergen
has not aged well. NOT that her looks have anything to do with her popularity (or lack thereof)

Out of curiosity I watched the first episode of the reboot, it was as bad I thought it would be. It just wasn’t the kind of show that could be brought back. And yes Candice has not aged well or any of the other cast members.

It was either Bob Crane or Werner Klemperer or even both who expressed that same regret.

And you all thought the big networks could no longer come up with “Must Miss TV”.

I would love to see Perfect Strangers come back. At the end of the series Balki and Larry became brand new fathers. It would be fun to see the cousins come back to interact with their now grown sons.

Archie was invariably correct, but didn’t have the chops to explain why. His knee jerk reactions were realistic.

All In The Family is already on weekly. It’s called Last be Man Standing.

might actually be worth watching

I agree. That they're doing it live makes it interesting.

I can hear it now -—
Meathead -— “Our country is being ruined by Donald Trump! He needs to be removed by any means possible!”
Archie -— “You’re right! I’ll get my gun!”

I’m assuming Will Ferrell is Meathead.
Could be interesting.
