A sequel series featuring the original cast but focusing on the younger offspring might have been a good idea (as long as they didn't get the balance wrong like TNT's nuDALLAS reboot did). Even a MAD MEN-style prequel set in the '50s and '60s about Blake's and Alexis' backstory (which I know the creators wanted to do) might have been interesting and maybe even have worked
But a crass, silly remake set in Atlanta? It almost CAN'T work — which begs the question: who were the executives who signed off on this version of a follow-up series?? I know the Shapiros, who are almost 90, are defending this 2017 offering, but it isn't the show they'd wanted to do. I mean, it's not all that awful, and it's typical of today's programming, but talk about a missed opportunity!!
