Fractured Throat

A sequel series to Night Court is in development at NBC.

The new show would follow unapologetic optimist judge Abby Stone, daughter of the original series character Harry Stone, as she follows in her father's footsteps. [source]

Zack Morris's son, Harry Stone's daughter – what other past hits can NBCUniversal "next generation"?

If Michael J. Fox was healthier: Alex P. Keaton's three children are Antifa, an influencer, and trans, respectively.

The Fresh Prince of West Philadelphia: After TMZ footage of him "do you know who I am?"-ing blows up, Will sends Jaden to live with his mother.

Frasier moves in with his estranged Twitch streamer son Frederick and his black wife.

GOD PEED

I stumbled upon this film that reunites the cast of Kyle XY:

With The Office (Netflix's sixth most watched show in November) leaving for Peacock at the end of December, Netflix should commission a bunch of films starring the cast of The Office. Reunite them in different configurations à la Adam Sandler's friends.

Fighting Game Idea: Netflix vs. Capcom.

Idea: A sim game in which you manage a city during 2020. Another protest. Fund the police more? ICUs are filling up. Shut down outdoor dining?
