The streaming giant worked out a deal with Legendary Television with the intention of bringing the title back for modern audiences, according to a Deadline article published on Tuesday, June 17. The outlet also reported that Sid and Marty Krofft — the company of the brothers who produced and developed the original series — is set to return for the reboot. The article also mentioned that Marty’s daughter and COO of the company, Deanna Krofft Pope, is a producer for the project.
The series has been rebooted a total of two times since the original: once as a TV show that ran for two seasons in 1991, and a second time as a movie that starred Will Ferrell, Danny McBride, and Anna Friel, which premiered in 2009.
A number of users on Reddit took to the comment section of a post about the news of the Netflix reboot to share their reactions.
“The series passed its 50th anniversary last year,” noted a second user, before asking, “Is Hollywood that hopelessly phobic about original ideas these days?”
A third user asked, “Wasn't this already rebooted?”Despite reaching out, Deadline reported that they received no comment from the alleged companies involved, and that the revival did not have a writer at the time.
