The planned comedy sequel has been scrapped according to a source close to the production. The follow-up series to the 1980 comedy was set to reunite original stars Jane Fonda, Dolly Parton, and Lily Tomlin. 

Even before news of the cancelation dropped, Parton had her doubts. 

“I don’t think we’re going to do the sequel,” Parton said. “We never could get the script to where it was enough different than the first one, and that one turned out so good.”

Parton added that she and her co-stars have “dropped that whole idea.”

The show will span across eight episodes and Parton will executive produce, co-star and serve as singer and songwriter for the show.

“As a songwriter, I have always enjoyed telling stories through my music,” Parton said in a statement. “I am thrilled to be bringing some of my favorite songs to life with Netflix. We hope our show will inspire and entertain families and folks of all generations, and I want to thank the good folks at Netflix and Warner Bros. TV for their incredible support.”

The anthology is not the first time Parton has teamed up with Warner Bros. They worked together on her 2015 made-for-TV movie Dolly Parton’s Coat of Many Colors as well as Dolly Parton’s Christmas of Many Colors: Circle of Love in 2016.

We are not sure what to expect from the show, but we know that every episode will be based on one of her iconic songs. A premiere date for the new series has not yet been announced.
