Where is the Broadway production of Designing women

Where is the Broadway production of Designing women? A few years ago Linda Bloodsworth said she was working on a Broadway play that would in fact serve of what she intended to be the final episode. I was at a celebration of the show in 1991 and Linda said to the audience that in the final show she wanted "Suzanne & Anthony to run of and get married". To her she said "It would be the Old South merging with The New South".

When DW hit the air I was a fan. Moment One. This wasn't about 4 horny people in their early 20's, It was about real issues! I loved it from episode one.! If you watch the show today you will see the show almost has a timeless quality to it! That is because issues effecting women in the 1980's are still issues women are still facing today. Designing Women was at first called a rip-off of The Golden Girls by every reviewer. In fact it was called a rip-off of "The Golden Girls".

When DW hit the air in September of 1986 The Golden Girls were gearing up for their 2nd year (and the show just won an Emmy) I did like the Golden Girls but DW was a show unto itself. I remember in TV guide there was a blurb printed that said "The Worse Episode of The Golden Girls is better than the best episode of Designing Women". That pissed me off. "Designing Women" is now getting the last laugh. If critics would watch an episode of "The Golden Girls" today they would call that show preachy now. "Designing Women" would be hailed today as a break through. Can you Imagine a show like "DW" on Network TV today! No you can't!

The TV Networks would not put on a sitcom where the entire cast is women over the 30. How sad.
Now in 2008 22 years after its first episode aired Critics are calling "DW" "A Classic". To me and other fans of the show we knew "DW" was a great show! The fans were smarter then the critics. Today its now called a classic. Funny to the fans of the show we knew it over 20 years ago!

Time has proved the show is still a classic. Now when we see USA today mention great TV Shows they always mention Designing Women as a show "with a voice and wasn't afraid of its voice". Well I remember that same paper called it "Preachy" when it first aired Now how the times have changed. Where were these idiots 20 years ago.

The BAD PRESS
From the moment the show was introduced at the CBS up fronts (Spring 1986) show was being criticized very heavily by every publication! All of them said negative things! Today these same critics say "Designing Women is a great show and Networks should make shows like that again" Where were they in 1986?

When Designing Women was on the air all the Emmy's went to The Golden Girls Cheers or Murphy Brown. In fact One year it lost to "The Wonder Years"! Designing Women was nominated for Best Comedy Emmy in 1989 and 1990. Yes it lost. However today what show can you watch today and still laugh just as hard? What show still get new fans every year by the thousands. Well kids its not "Murphy Brown" or "Cheers" its DW. They don't make them like this anymore. Thank Linda Bloodsworth Thompson and Harry Bloodsworth for over 100 classic tv episodes. Now how about a reunion show/episode.
