Party of Five

PARTY OF 5 (1994) was a great TV series. It lasted 6 seasons. I'm beginning to think no one has a brain full of imagination anymore.. OR the powers that be that write or decide what to air are just too lazy to write or find an original story line. I would rather go back and watch the original than to allow someone to force their political agenda on me by changing the synopsis of a great show from the past.

You people out in Hollywood need to understand that with all the new technology out .. your viewers are not so naive anymore.. If you are going to do a remake.. that's fine.. Want to variate a little or enhance the story line... that's all good... but don't start infusing a "CAUSE" into the script... This will turn your viewers away faster than you can bat an eye. We get preached at, lied to, and fed false information so much within a day, the last thing we want is to have the same thing happen while we are trying to enjoy our down time. If you want to push the issue of immigration.. then make a TV show about it.. but don't hide it inside a well known much loved 90's TV series that everybody loved just the way it was written. Your remake will not be a success....

I saw the comment that it should have stuck with the original premise. That would be just too much like the original. No one wants that. And why is real life too much for people? You get diversity in color/race but, not in that color or race expressing their truth? It's not about being political. It's about what is real. And this is real for some people. We can't knock the experience of others because it makes some uncomfortable. It's a great show with a great premise. And I can't wait to see how their story unfolds.

I was a huge fan of the original from the 90's and was so excited they were bringing it back. And I'm not disappointed! I love the new spin they put on the show making it about a Hispanic family who deal with their parents being deported along with everyday struggles as teens and young adults. The characters personalities are very similar to the original cast members Lacy Chabert, Scott Wolf, Neve Campbell and Matthew Fox. I hope a lot of people check this show out and it gets picked up for a season 2 the first episode is great so far!

Well, I watched about 20 mins hoping for somthing good and was let down. Again this is another show to turn into a political brainwashed , just like the recent reboot of Rosewell.

The five Acosta children, Emilio, Lucia, Beto, Valentina, and baby Rafael, are forced to live on their own after their parents get deported to Mexico.

This is a reboot of the 1994 TV teen melodrama. The major difference is that this version tries to incorporate the immigration debate to the show's detriment. In the original, the parents died and that is a large part of the premise. The kids are alone. In this version, the parents are omnipresent. Right off the bat, this show is destroying the original's main premise. On top of that, these kids are really annoying. The original's kids can be bratty at times but they end up together because they have no one else. The little sister is not always whining about going to her parents. It also doesn't make sense that the parents would leave the baby with the other kids. Basically, every change in the show makes it worst and it all adds up to an inferior show.
