It's also just the way people age. I think Rue was playing older than her actual age and was a believable 60 year old while Cox & Kudrow could easily play younger, but I couldn't see either of them playing sixty.

They'd need three all time great TV actresses in the leads and a lesser known, but still great actress in the Sophia role. But without an all time great cast it wouldn't work.

An eighties sitcom that doesn't have a nuanced view of gays? Now I've seen everything.

Three of the best actresses in TV history. Any Emmys they got were deserved.

But in 1992 they gave the bulk of the cast Emmys in one fell swoop so I'm not sure it counts.

There was a story in the eighties where his dad got a new job and he was going to have to leave Riverdale. As a final gesture he was going to reveal to Archie what the S stood for, but before he could do it he found out he didn't have to leave so it was never revealed.

They really should have had Reggie with slicked back hair there too.

Not completely true because there were some nameless creeps who didn't like Kevin because he was gay. They were quickly thwarted and proved wrong, but they were there.

That legitimately made me shed a tear when I read it. The book was kind of boring, but I loved that moment. Reggie taking a stand against homophobia was just something I thought I would never see in an Archie comic.

Yeah, it actually makes perfect sense to me.

Identical, but younger. But I guess it'd be a cool enough cameo to ignore the age.

Yeah, when he was 10. I'm not claiming 16 year olds are the most mature people you'll find, but unless they're doing something horrible like killing animals they're pretty much going to grow out of what they did as 10 year olds.

Kind of passive aggressive to give her that name then.

"To Reggie Mantle, whenever he mentions Jellybean's real name, "Forsythia", some kind of disaster happened to him, like his car being towed, or him slipping on a can, injuring himself, or most notably, being carried away by an elephant from the circus."

Hammond's was too soft . Befitting a goofy reality TV show host, but not our President. Not that Baldwin's is good at all. Once you got past the joke that Trump hated Baldwin it lost it's steam.

The show has been on for 40 years while in 1990 it's only been on for 15 so it was a lot harder to host that many times.

"I don't know anything about Iran, but I bet Regis Philbin would say 'It's out of control! Where's Gelman?' and then Johnny Carson would say 'That is some weird, wild stuff'"

If a ton of people were watching Yahoo Screen would still be a thing that exists.

That's actually kind of nice.

They recasted halfway through the final season? Why not just say she's on vacation or something? It was Urkel's show at that point, no one would have cared.
