    Calling it now. Kid is 10 and a supposed genius. Since the kid was already young enough in the original, they'll try to give it an edge by going even younger.

    Nope, the new Doogie is the same age as the original Doogie: 16.

    Funny, I thought The Good Doctor was supposed to be a take on Doogie Howser.

    At least CBS didn't get ahold of this. Then Doogie would be a medical prodigy and police consultant.

    The Good Doctor is about a doctor who is an autistic savant. Doogie Houser is about a doctor barely through puberty.

    Yeah, but they still come across as rather similar premises.

    I want to see a show where a cat is hired as a consultant to Animal Control. With Toon Bottoms help Animal Control is able to capture the most violent animals out their and put them in the pound where they belong.

    Evidently the Flight of the Navigator reboot is a go at Disney+, with Bryce Dallas Howard directing.

    Saved by the Bell does not belong in this thread as it IS NOT A REBOOT! It's a CONTINUATION! Get it right and get it out of here.

    Maybe Foxhot can ask the mod to insert the word "continuation" into the thread title. Meanwhile, who shit in your Wheaties? :rolleyes:

    Wow. That came out of nowhere.

    Continuations made years later bringing in new casts are a form of reboot.

    Flight of the navigator? Huh.. Paul Reubins still available? :beer:

    And apparently a The Bodyguard is getting redone.
    Or only have a female bodyguard with a male singer..

    For you Gundam fans .. New series called Witch of Mercury is coming in 22.. No details yet.

    If we're getting a female led version maybe we'll get the female equivalent which would be ... um, Kristen Schaal?
