What? No Janet Jackson?
Bernadette would still get it.
He basically said they both were out of their league in doing this project.
aight cause they weak for that shit
In the age of streaming, you can take a chance and do something that otherwise would have never been greenlit in the past.
How about this?
Get the surviving cast of Good Time together and do a montage of how the characters have changed in the 45 years since we've seen them.
Ester Rolle (Florida), Ja'net Dubois (Willona), Johnny Brown (Bookman) and Ben Powers (Keith) have all passed on. So their character's deaths can be used as plot devices.
We can show Michael as a successful judge in Chicago, J.J. as a successful artist, and Thelma as a dancer, mother, grandmother, and widow. If Janet Jackson doesn't want to return, just mention her in passing as they did with Michelle on Fuller House.
There is plenty of stuff you can play with here, where we can see the Evans family together one final time instead of that wack ass reboot

Walker said everybody gave him the same response when trying to sell a new Good Times project with the surviving cast. Because none of them owned the rights to the show, they couldn't/wouldn't work with them on any level. I imagine that would be as much as an issue now as it has always been.
At this point, it would be up to Lear's estate and CBS. Although Walker made it clear Lear was never interested in doing it, perhaps those running his estate would feel different.
Nothing is stopping them from making their own show under a different name.

I thought about that too, but for some reason Walker wanted to have the Good Times name attached to it. My guess an easier sell.
When listening to the interview, I got the vibe that this is their attempt to jump start a social media campaign to get the project off the ground.
