There have also been rumors circulating about possibly wanting to remake/reboot Married... With Children. Now there is a show that would not work at all today. With the current cultural climate being somewhat uptight, there's no way Married... With Children would fly nowadays. What made the show so good was the fact that it was unapologetically crass, offensive, and farted in the face of everything that was wholesome and decent. It was hilarious when Al Bundy would fat-shame his customers, slut-shame his daughter, nerd-shame his son, pettanko-shame Marcy, everything-shame his wife, etc.
And modern Alf wouldn't work because Alf can't go hide in the kitchen any more because modern houses have open concept kitchens these days. Despite everything that HGTV tells us about open concept kitchens being the cool thing to do and everybody's doing it, I despise open concept kitchens.
