>> They're like dogs. You have to clean them and feed them and they're just like these nervous creatures that jump and slobber all over you.
Ew, get off of me.
Ugh, as if.
>> I feel like this was like culture defining.
Paramount Plus has announced a sequel to 1995's Clueless.
It'll be a series with Alicia Silverstone reprising her role as Cher Horowitz.
Sirius XM radio host Lamar Dawson joins us now.
So, Lamar, this is such a beloved movie.
It all you almost are like, "No, don't.
Just let's keep it in its last." Yeah,
but but all right, let's talk about the revival.
What do we know?
>> Yeah, we know that Alicia Silverstone is back as Cher Horowitz.
Now, she is a mother and now she's a bit clueless about how to navigate being a mom of a teenage daughter.
>> I mean, relatable.
Have any other cast members signed on?
[laughter] >> No cast members have signed on just yet.
They are still acting and they did have their reunion last year, you might recall.
So, they are still in the mix.
Hopefully, fingers crossed they get back on board.
>> It does feel like in the world of film and TV, everything old is always new again.
And is it is it nostalgia that's driving this? What is it?
>> It's a few different things. I think one, Hollywood is risk averse and nostalgia cuts through the clutter.
It is easier for me to pitch you a story where the characters and stories already live in your heart and mind.
>> already know they're already beloved.
>> Exactly, exactly. So, that's coming back.
>> Okay, but what about an appetite from audiences like like younger people don't they might not necessarily be acquainted with Clueless.
Maybe not all of the jokes or storylines can still apply.
They might not still be considered relevant.
Is that a risk in and of itself?
>> Sometimes, it's really great when studios continue the storyline where it was. To your point, like leave things alone, but don't mess up the source material.
So, bring it back and continue the story.
But, with social media today, so many young people are tapped into nostalgia cuz they're seeing it on their TikTok feed.
Alicia's been on TikTok with her with her children. Stacey Dash is out on Tik Tok as well dancing and performing.
So, you're seeing those people come back and connect with Gen Z in that way.
>> We'll see.
I see a lot of Gen Z basically saying everything I love is cringe.
So,
>> You Well, the funny thing is so I host Pop 2K on SiriusXM and our listener base is a lot younger than you might realize.
They love these songs. They love these movies.
Also, they're seeing it on their Tik Tok feed.
So, our audience is almost split between Gen Z and up but also I'm sorry, Gen Z and below and millennials and up.
>> Oh, wow. All right. We'll see how it does.
Lamar Jackson Dawson, always good to see you.
Thank you.
>> Likewise.
