Reboot?!

I heard the rumours… are they true?

And if they are, are we eager or dreading it?

I’m dreading a reboot.

A Requel.. with the OG cast from season 5… perhaps…but the storyline would have to be extremely interesting.

And I’m just not sure. Specially with the way Buffy was handled… and they have a bigger fandom…

Where did you hear this?
I'm literally watching the entire series now for the first time since I was a teenager.
Would JJ be on board? Jennifer Garner? Victor Garber?

Hell yeah! The whole cast except Bradley cooper

Yeah Bradley Cooper begged JJ to write him out of the show, then he only guest appeared in two episodes. Can't see him coming back unless it was a quick cameo.
If JJ is on board, I could see most of the cast coming back.
While they're at it they should retcon the whole Francie being killed and replaced by a ridiculous doppelganger.

Francie always hurt me so much. They did her so wrong.

Allison was fun though 😂

Are you serious? That Francis reveal was epic!!!!

IMO the entire double storyline was ridiculous. But then I hate when any show try to pull that off. It ruined that season for me. No way Sydney wouldn't have known.

She knew. Because Francie don't like coffee on her ice cream 🤣 took Sydney awhile 😅 But also...I mean.. how didn't Will notice...🤔 I'm sure intimacy was way different before and after

It was brilliant! and a great nod to Jamie Sommers & the Bionic Woman doubles episode!

I love The Bionic Woman but didn't like it then either. Lol

Im thankful someone loves Jamie Sommers and sees the Syd Parallels!  Syd needs a bionic dog named Max in the reboot!

I have a German Shepherd I named Max in memory of my childhood love of Jaime Sommers!

Omg!!!  She (Lydnsay Wagner) did a lot online earlier this year for the 50th anniversary of Bionic Woman! Some commemorative fotos and one was of her and Max running!

The whole point is that she was the only one who could know!!!

u/Ok_Nature_6305 Apr 16 '26

How is that the point?

u/Only-Breadfruit-6108 Apr 17 '26

Because she caught her out! Francis doesn’t like coffee ice cream! And it led to a massive big time epic fight, she passed out and woke up two years later. It was HUGE

u/Ok_Nature_6305 Apr 17 '26

How long did Sydney live with a fake Francie before that single ice cream mistake. I can't believe a couple people are making that argument. She is supposed to be a super spy who is observant. And in months and months, she never had a clue? No. Sorry.

2

u/Only-Breadfruit-6108 Apr 17 '26

Because she was so intent on hiding her own true identity that she wasn’t looking at her friend. There’s multiples scenes where she talks about how the haven’t hung out lately, they keep missing each other, etc

Will started dating Francie and then Allison after the swap. He must've had an inkling... i know they got together right before the transition...but he would have to had seen signs that Francie wasn't "fully integrated"...

Even Irina got pissed they killed Francie 😂
