Members Khan Posted March 15, 2018 Members Share Posted March 15, 2018 Is this really a reboot, though? It seems to me like it's a brand-new concept and they just attached the names "Christine Cagney" and "Mary Beth Lacey" to it. Sort of like the planned "Murder, She Wrote" "reboot" that would have had Jessica Fletcher a hospital administrator who also happened to be a self-published author.

Members Paul Raven Posted March 15, 2018 Members Share Posted March 15, 2018 Still don't quite get some of these reboots. Take a show many young viewers have never heard of, or have no interest in,then revamp it so older viewers who remember it fondly are presented with a completely different show.

Members Khan Posted March 18, 2018 Members Share Posted March 18, 2018 I'm not interested either way. I just don't feel like this is a proper reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted March 20, 2018 Members Share Posted March 20, 2018 We should have the mods merge this thread with the one in the CBS section, but Ving Rhames has joined the cast. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/amp/live-feed/ving-rhames-star-cbs-cagney-lacey-reboot-1095545#click=https://t.co/SCdygEPdWF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted March 20, 2018 Members Share Posted March 20, 2018 Agreed. The only Cagney and Lacey are Daly/Gless. Period! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted March 20, 2018 Members Share Posted March 20, 2018 It's not even that, really. I'm fine with the idea of new actors playing Christine and Mary Beth. But the premise of the original series was about two female cops who, through sheer determination and grit, had made detectives, but who were still fighting to be taken seriously in a profession dominated by men. From what I'm reading, the premise of this reboot doesn't seem to be employing those themes at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
