Party of Five reboot on the way

  • 19/01/2018

The resurrection of beloved old TV shows continues and this time, '90s dramedy Party of Five is set for a reboot.

However, fans wanting to reconnect with Bailey, Charlie, Julia, Claudia and Owen will be disappointed, as the new show will focus on a new family.

Party of Five will be modernised and try to tackle the hotly contested US immigration issue.

It'll follow five siblings, the Buendias, who struggle to keep their family together after their parents are deported back to Mexico.

The original Party of Five, which ran from 1994-2000, starred Scott Wolf, Matthew Fox, Neve Campbell, and Lacey Chabert as siblings who come together after their parents die in a car crash.

It spawned a spinoff called Time of Your Life, which followed Jennifer Love-Hewitt's character as she moved to New York, but was cancelled after one season.

The Party of Five reboot was first reported on by the Hollywood Reporter. When it's likely to premiere has not been revealed.
