TLDR: There is no Golden Girls reboot in production, and the "news" about it came from a Facebook page that specializes in satirical movie posts.

So I've just now heard about an alleged reboot of The Golden Girls coming to Disney+, starring Lisa Kudrow, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Maya Rudolph. I did some fact-checking, including looking at the place where the claims originated, and this news is 100% false.

There is no reboot or revival of The Golden Girls in the works. There's no evidence of the alleged revival on Disney's roster, and a reverse Google Image of the poster that was "released" doesn't go to any official sources. Moreover, the claim of a reboot originated from a Facebook page called YODA BBY ABY, which explicitly describes its posts as satirical. YODA BBY ABY is well-known because the post about fake media news, and they frequently "cover" films and television shows that aren't real and aren't going to happen.

While I'm positive that we'd all benefit from a revival of The Golden Girls, we need to make sure that we're getting our news from accurate, reputable sources before we go posting about it on the site. Nobody's in trouble, nobody's going to be penalized for posting about it. I just wanted to clear the air about the "reboot" and try and spread the truth before people got too excited about it.

Most importantly, do not go after the person who posted the fake news. They have warnings all over their page that they post about satire, and they've already received a bunch of death threats from ill-informed Facebook users. This post is not intended to incite a firestorm on them. Just ignore the post and leave the user alone.
