The show is now about… …‘How a Black middle-class family in Montgomery, Alabama, in the turbulent late 1960s, the same era as the original series, made sure it was ‘The Wonder Years’ for them, too.’
ABC announced today that they are making a pilot for a new version of The Wonder Years, which originally aired on the network from 1988 to 1993.
The old Wonder Years starred a young Fred Savage as Kevin Arnold, and chronicled his ups and downs growing up in suburbia during the late 1960s.
The entire premise of the show was already about nostalgia, so there may not be a more perfect concept to capture the zeitgeist right now.
