This doesn't necessarily mean that audiences will always enjoy the new reboots. Which, of course, brings me to the main point of this giant ramble. You won't always be happy with a reboot. You might not be the target audience anymore (*sobs*). Maybe, just maybe, you've matured to the point where the show you're no longer part of that 'for the whole family demographic' (Fuller House, I'm looking at you). The jokes that you enjoyed at 5 or 10 might not be the most entertaining when you've seen more adult rated things. It sucks, but it's what happens when we get older. Shows like Gilmore Girls will probably have less of a problem with this, since it had a much wider target audience. But that doesn't guarantee that everything will stay the same. Fuller House's biggest complaint (besides you know, the lack of original characters) was that they didn't replicate the set exactly the same way. It's impossible to keep it the same, so as much as Gilmore Girls set pictures are looking the same, we never know. I don't know where I'm going with this.

Source Changing with the times?

What do you want from a reboot?

Personally, I can say all the things I don't from a reboot, but can't exactly pinpoint what I do want. I think it's that nostalgic feeling, the one where everything seems to mesh together to the point where you feel like you haven't missed a show for over 10 years. It's not easily replicable, as all TV/ film buffs will know. You can't replicate everything. Just like us, the actors, directors, technology, they've all evolved. It's impossible for everything to be the same. If we think like this, is there even a point in doing reboots?
