Written By: LyricBoy on 10/16/19 at 5:15 am

Looks like the classic sitcom Facts of Life may be the next reboot coming down the pike.  8)

And it has some heavy hitters behind it. Leo DiCaprio and Jessica Biel are involved in the project, still under development. There’s no word as to whether the original Blair, Jo, Tootie, Natalie, or Mrs. Garrett characters will return to reprise their roles. Although it does look like Geri Jewell will be in on the action.

Since Mrs.Garrett passed away last year I don't know who will take her place but I wouldn't mind a Facts Of Life reboot.

They could get Cathy Mitchell, the infomercial lady, to play the role of Mrs. Garrett.

Wow, she does look a bit like Mrs.Garrett and she does cooking commercials too. :o

I could see her working with Mindy Cone and Lisa Welchel. I don’t think that the chick who played Jo would go along with a reboot though.

I think Nancy McKeon would probably hate the reboot.

****UPDATE****

A Christmas-only Facts of Life reboot episode is on!  And all 4 of the original chicks will play a part.

Lisa Welchel, Mindy Cone, Kim Fields and Nancy McKeon will all be there.  :)

I can't wait for that, it should be interesting. Now I wonder if the woman who sang the original theme will be in the opening?
