Archie Bunker in the 2000s?

Who’d watch him in his new “woke” incarnation???

The intolerant humor that was iconic to that show would be unacceptable now, and yet was a large part of what made it funny.

I understand that each episode is a one time re-enactment of an episode of the two programs.

I’m interested in seeing how it works out.

I don’t really remember The Jeffersons very well, but I sometimes watch the reruns now. I always find them funny.

If this works out well, I think I’d like a re-enactment of “I Love Lucy” or the “Golden Girls”
 
I still would rather watch the originals, and (although this is probably too much to ask for) have the entertainment industry develop programs that were themselves original. . .and (really too much to ask for) entertaining in the way that much of the classic TV was entertaining. AITF may have had some heavy-handed agenda pushing but for the most part in addition to having excellent actors there was still some sympathy for the other point of view, not the kind of virtue-shaming ‘woke’ taking offense and charges of ‘malice’ that characterize much of society today.
 
They’re not recreating the shows.

It’s going to be a 90 minute special. A one-time thing.
