A "Modern" Lucy and Ricky?...uh...No Thanks


Has anyone else read about the "new" ILL that's currently in development? I only saw the young couple that's supposed to be portraying them, and couldn't continue reading, as I was afraid my I.Q. would slip into remission.

A note to these producers: you cannot replicate genius. Try coming up with an original series, then maybe you'll come up with your OWN classic.

I read that too! Horrible! But I believe its a foreign language show based out of south America. No one can ever replicate Lucy!

reply

Lucy is an original and no copy of her can do justice to her comedy. They might as well repaint the Mona Lisa while they're at it!

You mean...like YOU, perhaps?

And your "point" would've been so much more powerful had you only had the forethought to CAP every word!

WANT A PEPSI?🥤

People only make the observation once they've grown old enough to see it done to their own favorites, not realizing the practice itself predates them, and not realizing that maybe some of their own favorites already remakes of other things.

What if they remake it but set it in Los Angeles where Lucy is an illegal alien from Ireland and Ricky is a virologist but he is also a spy for China. That might make for an hilarious premise.
