I was the one poking the bear, going, ‘Let’s do it, let’s do it, let’s do it,’” Bryan told Variety. “Finally, Linwood Boomer, our creator of the show, got tired of me poking him. He came up with some really fun, terrific ideas.”
The Emmy-winning actor went on to tease that the revival, saying it’s “funny” and “heartfelt.”
“You are reintroduced to this family. We left the airwaves 20 years ago. All the boys are adults with their own children,” Bryan shared. “It’s a different dynamic in that sense — and yet, do things really change with Hal and Lois? I don’t know that they do!”
While the majority of the original cast is returning, it was just announced that one family member is getting recast.
