Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 No one wants Cree Summer back?! I've heard for months about this reboot possibility (was well as a possible reboot of Fame, which would only work if it were more like the original 1980 movie and not the TV show or the craptastic recent movie). It's too bad that Jasmine Guy looks so, uhm, you know...these days because in theory, Whitley should return but Jasmine Guy looks a bit hard boiled these days (forgive me, I'm trying not to be critical of her looks). On a positive note, though, I could see Victoria Rowell on this reboot, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 Don't want Cree or Sinbad. I will take Chenelle (Kim, last name escapes me). VR? Hell yeah! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 I was watching Nick at Nite last night and thinking to myself I wish they'd put "A Different World" in the line-up. As a kid, ended up enjoying ADW more than TCS. I guess everybody liked Whitley more.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 Nick@Nite did try to air the show a few years back, the ratings weren't very good, so it was shelved after a few weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) Freddie-La is welcome - as long as she isn't brought back as the watered-down simp that ended up with that bum, Ron, in season 6. As for Sinbad, I'd like to see him and Jaleesa try at it again, as I'm sure that they (mostly he) have matured since their initial Hillman days. No offense to Colonel Taylor (who I did like indivudually), but I hated what being married to him did to her.

Members DRW50 Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 I think if you just say that Whitley's had a rough life since ADW ended, Jasmine would be able to work in the role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 They should have given it more time to catch on. This is from 2012: Jasmine Guy. I think you can work with that on a spin-off. Professional make-up, etc... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBl5rJuQKRo Dwayne and Whitley circa 2006 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OQSlb5f1Ko http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kP3msHsBoKM 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 I preferred that to what they made her in seasons 3-5 - increasingly self-righteous, shrill, and finally, a very brittle parody. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 you can't have ADW without Whitley Dwayne & Whitley's oldest should be at least 19 by now, def. college age. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 Oh, I'm not saying that Freddie's boho character didn't irk (I loved her as a kid, but have grown to be impatient of her as an adult), but it was a lot truer to who she was (or rather, her development from the wide-eyed sheltered freshman of season 2 to the young college woman who knew what she stood for - even if she got on her friends'/professors'/classmates' nerves in the process). In addition to being made over to be a generic character with no particular qualities outside of getting with Ron, the writers muddied her friendship with Kim in the process (which I hated most of all) over a guy that truly wasn't worth it, IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 I agree. It really wouldn't be ADW without Whitley. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members London Posted January 28, 2013 Members Share Posted January 28, 2013 LOOOOOOOOOOOVED that reunion when Nick @ Nite aired it. I'd watch definitely with Jasmine & Kadeem. If they brought back Whitley & Dwayne's kid I wonder if they'd do the same with the Colonel & Jalessa's baby who would be a year or two older. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
