My point is that they took a white show and remade it with a black family but they aren’t taking a black show and remaking it with a white one.

“Diversity” is a one way street in Hollywood.



I bet you love calling people out for being “constantly offended!!”

Wasnt Tom Cruise"s name "Ethan Hunt" in the Mission Impossible remake?

There was no Ethan Hunt in the original Mission Impossible TV series. The only character that they gave a TV series name to was Jim Phelps, who they turned into a movie villain instead of the heroic TV character.

They're not remaking anything. Different family, different city. It's a totally different story


yeah...exactly. So name it literally anything else. It's a brand new show, why give it the name of another show it has nothing to do with? You might as well call it Saved By the Bell, I mean why not?

Not that I care about the 60's. It was a shitty decade and not my childhood, but the Wonder Years was actually funny. I get the feeling that this one is just going to be preachy, like everything else.

I try to be kind and go with the premise that the folks in here are winking with their obvious obtuseness, but it's getting to the point where it's more likely that you're just idiots.

Seriously, no offense, but at what point does all of this get obvious enough for you?

I don't see a problem with this.


Sorry if I didn't give the knee jerk ' THIS SUCKS!' reaction some of y'all were expecting. I think it makes sense , because the whole theme of the 'wonder years' is about that part of our lives , for all of us, not just some middle class white kid, but all kids, in that coming of age time of our lives.

I didn't realize the mid-70s black demo was so influential.

Didn't they basically already do this with Everybody Hates Chris? It's basically the same concept.

Well the Cosby show is one of the highest rated sitcoms and that was 80s so I guess you just have your head up your arse
