During a recent appearance on Sherri, the producer and screenwriter was asked if she’d ever reboot the beloved series. “I want to tell that story. I have tried to tell that story,” she told host Sherri Shepherd.

Then she asked:

“Do you know anybody who has 50 million dollars? Do we have five people who have ten million? I would love to do a movie.”
