And First up in todays RETRO News is.. Welp! It was a short run.. But Roseanne’s new TV revival has been cancelled. You guys already know this, but heres my take. Ya, us retro lovers may have lost possibly the only 80s TV show revival that was just as good, if not better than the original, but what did happen was this
Because of how popular The Roseanne show was.. A statement was made to big cable that retro is not going away, its stronger than ever, and people really do want to see good, quality, tv shows getting the revival treatment.. When its done right.
And Roseanne did that. They kept the same lovable and edgy vibe we all remembered from their 80s tv show, and made it relevant to the kids and families of today. Don’t get me wrong – What Roseanne said was very inappropriate and she’s received the kind of reaction that should be expected for her actions.
But I just wanted to point out that although the Roseanne revival may have been short lived – the idea of rebooting and reviving great, thoughtful 80s shows is wanted by the lovers and fans of old school tv, and I hope the executives at Big Cable definitely take notice.
Alright, so next up in more retro tv and movie news!
If you havent seen the second trailer for the new Christopher Robin movie, your really in for a treat! When I first heard they were making a new Pooh movie, I thought it would be much of the same – but after seeing this second trailer.. Theres something special being done here –
Winnie The Pooh is finally getting the live action movie it deserves, and frankly.. We all need this right now.. Ill link to the trailer down below, and I really hope you all go check it out, cause it really does look like this Pooh movie is going to be fantastic.
Next up.. Bonkers Fruit Chews was a fruit candy that was hugely popular in the 80s and 90s that was known for its crazy commercials. BUT, it eventually lost popularity and was finally discontinued.
Well, its coming back and it looks like they are bringing back many of the original flavors with it. I remember eating Bonkers as a kid and seem to remember them being pretty good, so im interested in trying them again. IF you want to find out more about Bonkers fruit candy, head over to leafbrands.com/bonkers and you can find out more there.
And in some Music news,
Huey Lewis, the 80s singer popular for songs like Power Of Love and Heart and Soul and the famous BACK IN TIME from the Back to the Future movies has announced that he may never do a concert again.
Apparently he’s been diagnosed with Meniere’s Disease which has made him lose most of his hearing. He did say that he is under therapy to try and help, but if you’re a huge fan of Hueys music.. You may just have to settle for listening to his music in the car or at home for now.
