Recently, my 11-year-old son stumbled upon The X-Files on Netflix and couldn’t believe me when I said it’s making a return. But it’s true! Six brand-new episodes are on the way, and the beloved cast—David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, and show creator Chris Carter—are all back. Plus, Mitch Pileggi is returning as Walter Skinner, Mulder and Scully’s boss. The fate of the Cigarette Smoking Man and the Lone Gunmen remains a mystery, which is fitting for the show.
Speaking of mysteries, the resurgence of Full House fans is a delightful surprise! Netflix has confirmed the return of this classic show next year. The new title will be Fuller House, with original star John Stamos, who portrayed Uncle Jesse, stepping in as a producer and occasional guest star. Fans can look forward to updates on the Tanner family, as widowed and pregnant DJ (Candace Cameron Bure) seeks the help of her sister Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin) to raise her two sons and new baby. Best friend Kimmy (Andrea Barber) will also join the fun, and there’s hope for appearances from Bob Saget (Danny), Dave Coulier (Joey), and even the Olsen twins—though only one is needed since they shared the role.
In addition, another classic from the ’80s and ’90s, Coach, is coming back too. While the full cast details are still under wraps, Craig T. Nelson is confirmed to return, along with original creator Barry Kemp. The storyline will pick up 18 years later, with Nelson’s Hayden Fox coming out of retirement to assist his son, who has become head coach at an Ivy League school in Pennsylvania.
Do you remember The Muppet Show? It was a massive hit in the late ’70s, featuring Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, and a host of celebrity guests like Julie Andrews and Elton John. ABC is working on a revival with the help of Bill Prady, co-creator of The Big Bang Theory. The premise will see Kermit and the gang trying to bring the show back, despite Miss Piggy’s ongoing issues with Kermit. Muppets truly never go out of style!
The Heroes reboot, now titled Heroes Reborn, brings back creator Tim Kring, but it will focus on new stories and characters, leaving the door open for familiar faces.
Meanwhile, the status of Twin Peaks is uncertain after David Lynch’s recent departure. Though he and co-creator Mark Frost have submitted all scripts to Showtime, Lynch’s exit has left fans anxious. There’s a growing social media call for Showtime to continue negotiations, which they insist they are doing. Original cast members have even made a video discussing the show’s future without Lynch.
Lastly, I recently caught an interview with Parenthood creator Jason Katims, who expressed interest in a “limited series revival.” Yes, please! I’d love to spend more time with the Braverman family. While I read about actors like Dax Shepard navigating real-life challenges, in my mind, he’s still happily married to Joy Bryant, fictional as they are.
And while we’re on the subject of reboots, how about bringing back Freaks & Geeks? This show was pure brilliance, despite only lasting one season. Its stars and creator Judd Apatow are still active, and I’d love to see where all those characters ended up.
