Married With Children Spinoff in the Works

Damn I loved that show when I was a kid, but some things are best left in the past! If I want my Al Bundy fix I can just watch Modern Family.
 
Married with Children was great, but the direction and script of the show was drivel by 1994-1995. Will it work in 2014? Well, no. It would have to be done right, and we have long passed that era from a creativity standpoint.
 
The show will be terrible but hey let Faustino get a few more pay days even if it only lasts for 1 season. He's the only one of the 4 main characters of Mw...C to not have a decent career after the show ended.
 
Or it all could just be left alone.

No thanks Fox or whoever.
 
A Bud Bundy spinoff would work as long as its not Bud acting like Al and a shoe salesman like his dad... needs his own shtick.

It could work with Bud being exactly like Al if it's done right, they could play it from the "son finds out to be exactly like his father despite trying to avoid it" -angle.

There were only two reasons I ever watched it.

GOAT show for virgins and basement dwellers. Show did not age well, yet somehow has a cult following from plebs looking to relive their pathetic Bud Bundy years.

The humour was borderline cartoonish, but not as embarrassing as the acting or production ( era considered )

It was such a bad show that you didn't realize if you were watching a satirical take on American sitcoms involving the dysfunctional nuclear family of the 80's, or if it was genuine. It still failed on both fronts.

It was Saved By The Bell for sophomores.

Disagree with everything you said
 

Peggy and Kelly weren't the only hotties on the show of course but they were two you could count on showing up.

Milla Jovovich guest starred once and she gave Kelly a run for her money.

would most likely be about bud bundy having somehow married a hot chick (she's only hot cuz the show needs eye candy) but they get divorced and he's basically kirk vanhouten but a little bit cooler...

I said ONE.

Ditto.

I looked on the show's Wiki page. The ratings were always terrible. the show, however, was cutting edge for its time.
