Blossom Reboot Won’t Be a Sitcom, Teases Mayim Bialik

Blossom star Mayim Bialik recently provided an update on the forthcoming reboot of the beloved NBC coming-of-age sitcom.Speaking with Vanity Fair, Bialik reaffirmed that a Blossom reboot was in development. “I’m happy to tell you that, yes, it’s true. All of the cast and the original creator and producers are on board, and we believe a reboot can and should exist once the strike ends,” the actor said. “We’re hoping to reboot it not as a sitcom, though. We want to bring back these interesting, deep characters—a child of divorce, a recovering drug addict, an alcoholic—to see them in a whole new way.”Bialik’s proposed reboot sounds similar to what Peacock did with The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, reimagining the classic Will Smith-led half-hour sitcom as Bel-Air, an hourlong drama that has so far aired two seasons. Plans to reboot Blossom were first mentioned by Bialik in 2021. Two years later, in April 2023, Bialik revealed that series creator Don Roe had finished writing the reboot’s pilot episode. “The [original] show was supposed to be Catcher in the Rye about a girl, which was unusual. And we’d like to do a reboot that’s unusual. We’d like to do a single cam,” said Bialik at the time. “All of the cast is on board.”RELATED: REPORT: The Office Reboot in Development Post-WGA Strike
