Mulan
Let's get down to business...to talk about Disney live-action remakes! Disney released "Mulan" earlier this month on Disney+, but so far the reviews have been mixed. This week, we chat about "Mulan" (and - spoiler alert - why we didn't enjoy it, as well as the things about it we did like), and also what we'd like to see in future live-action remakes.
One Day at a Time
We couldn't let another week pass without giving one of our favorite recent reboots its own episode: "One Day at a Time" has made us laugh, cry, and screaming for more Rita Moreno for four seasons. For this episode, we talked about why the show works and also shared some of our favorite moments and storylines. We also get into the news of the "Powerpuff Girls" reboot...are we loving it or leaving it?
Animorphs
A beloved sci-fi/fantasy YA series turned short-lived TV series is coming to the big screen! An "Animorphs" movie is in the works and we've got some thoughts, including who we'd like to see in the cast (please don't cast only white actors, Hollywood!) and what lessons can be learned from the 2017 "Power Rangers" movie. We also discuss the "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" reboot that's being shopped around right now, and ponder why "CSI" is getting the revival treatment.
The State of Reboots and Revivals
What revivals and reboots have worked in the last few years, and which ones haven't? We talk about the good (Nikita! One Day at a Time!), the bad (Minority Report! The Soup - 2020! Will & Grace!), and the complicated (Veronica Mars!), and also talk about some new reboot/revival news as some parts of Hollywood start getting back into production.
Bringing Back 'Bring It All Back'
Hello! Long time no talk... As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to keep people in their homes, we figured now is the perfect time to bring back Bring It All Back. We loved doing the podcast back in 2017 and 2018, and were looking for an excuse to revive our own little show about revivals, reboots, and reunions. And we've definitely had a lot to talk about this year because there have been SO many reunions happening.
So we dusted off the old mics to talk about...well, a lot of things: "The Weakest Link," Quibi, "Los," and the reunions we've been loving (hi, 'Parks & Rec'!) and not loving (looking at you, '30 Rock'). Also, we get into whether or not we think quarantine will affect how shows and franchises are rebooted and revived in the future.

Jumanji
We're kicking off 2018 with a conversation about "Jumanji"! Plus, some new reboot and revival news for the new year. So many new things!

Gilmore Girls
Netflix brought Stars Hollow back to life, but was the "Gilmore Girls" revival worth it?

Riverdale
We're so excited to rant and rave about "Riverdale"! It's a classic teen soap filled with murder and deception set in a dark little town where the high school students don't really go to high school – and we love it.

Will & Grace
"Will & Grace" broke barriers when it first aired on NBC in 1998, and now it's back – same cast, new(ish) stories. Does it work?

Teen Wolf
"I'm here for the mess." We get into some revival and reboot news (and the chaos and craziness happening on the CW!), and then turn our attention to "Teen Wolf," the 1985 Michael J. Fox classic AND the 2011 TV drama series.

Veronica Mars
Welcome to Bring It All Back, a podcast about revivals, reboots, and reunions! On our inaugural episode, we talk about the "Veronica Mars" revival – what worked and what definitely didn't work. Plus, some revival/reboot/reunion news and the shows coming back that we could see loving (or leaving!)...
