The classic John Hughes comedy Uncle Buck may be returning to the small screen.

Deadline reports that ABC is developing the comedy series, written by Steven Cragg and Brian Bradley (Happy Endings, Scrubs) for Universal TV.

Like the film, the series will focus on a child-like man (played by John Candy in the 1989 original) who learns life lessons after looking after his brother's children.

"But...why?"

Uncle Buck has been a TV series before. It ran on CBS with Kevin Meaney as Buck in 1990 for one season.

This sounds like a bad idea.

Just like in 1990, it will fail. They just need to come up with new ideas instead of trying to rip shite off.

If John Candy can't be in it then don't call it Uncle Buck.

They'll probably do a fresh new take on it starring Melissa McCarthy and call it Aunt Buck!

I checked with Chicken but unfortunately for you, he was unable to find your sense of humor in the MB Lost & Found.
