Roots remake

[Raph's Girl]

Coming to A&E, History Channel, and Lifetime in 2016. This will apparantly be incorporating more material from the books that the original classic series did not, plus some recently discovered historical facts. LeVar Burton is Co-Exec Producer.

Wonder how many Star Trek actors will be in this one? :P

My money is on Michael Dorn, at least.

Okay, on topic, I just saw the 30'th anniversary DVD yesterday, and this is one remake I wouldn't mind seeing. Sometimes we need to be reminded of the important things.

Let's hope OJ can get a weekend pass.

Come ooooooon, you were thinkin' it.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Nooo, no, I wasn't. But clearly, YOU were. :trazz: But we all know Oprah will be in it.

As long as each part starts with the "Last on Roots!" announcer voice.
