‘Mad About You’ Reboot in the Potential Works

Following the success of the return of “Will & Grace” and a talk of a reboot of “The Office” comes words of a potential revival of NBC’s “Mad About You.” Sony Pictures Television Studios is working on a revival of “Mad About You” with Paul Reiser and multi-Emmy Award winner Helen Hunt to reprise their roles as married New York couple Paul and Jamie Buchman. The sitcom aired from 1992 to 1999 and the potential new version, which is not a lock on NBC, would likely revolve around Paul and Jamie dealing with empty-nest syndrome in the wake of now-17-year-old daughter Mabel’s admission to college.

The potential return of “Mad About You” continues the trend of revivals of popular shows from the 1980s and 1990s such as aforementioned “Will and Grace,” “Fuller House” on Netflix, which is now in season three, and ABC’s upcoming “Roseanne” reboot, which opens on March 27.
