Howdy Doody Time reboot when?
---

Barris will write the pilot script alongside Black-ish writer/producer Yamara Taylor, which follows Samantha, a "hard-working black single mother" who marries Darren, a white mortal who is described as "a bit of a slacker." The couple struggles to reconcile their differences as Samantha begins to realize that, even though she can literally conjure magic, "shes still not as powerful as a decently tall white man with a full head of hair in America."

Yeah, that could work.

I didn't even notice that part.
---

I hope they have multiple Darrins like the original

just recast him every season

Are they keeping the really obvious jump cuts from the mid-60s whenever magic is used?
---

Wait I thought I saw a few weeks ago that Kenya Barris left his ABC contract early?

I don't know if you could do a show about a woman being owned by a man today. I'm not even trying to be political, I just don't think it'd happen.

Have Jeannie be owned by another woman then.

People didn't watch the show for Larry Hagman.
---

heck just remake the theme song video

that was the best part of the show
