For months there have been rumors that The Proud Family is coming back, and Disney+ finally made it official today! It has been 18 years since the show premiered, so it makes sense that they would make Penny a teenager for The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder.
Kyla Pratt will once again voice Penny, and she is not the only one who is back from the original run. Tommy Davidson as Oscar Proud, Paula Jai Parker as Trudy Proud, Jo Marie Payton as Suga Mama, Karen Malina White as Dijonay Jones, Soleil Moon Frye as Zoey Howzer, Alisa Reyes as LaCienega Boulevardez, and Cedric the Entertainer as Uncle Bobby Proud are also once again joining in on the fun.
The keep the animated show feeling like it did, Academy Award-winning creator/executive producer Bruce W. Smith and executive producer Ralph Farquhar are back to keep the Prouds in line. At least, they will try to do so.
We don’t know when the revival will begin to stream. Therefore, in the meantime, you can watch the OG run on Disney+ anytime you want. It will get you even more excited for the new episodes.
One of the most excited people for the reboot is Alisa Reyes, and she told me how much she is looking forward to returning as LaCienga Boulevardez. She said, “I am just so grateful and blessed to have a full-circle moment it started with All That on Nickelodeon and now again with The Proud Family. I am humbled and so thankful for this opportunity to continue doing what I love and that fills my soul with joy!” It fills our souls with joy to see our childhood favorites coming back to life in our adulthood. Who says we have to grow up?
For months, there have been rumors that there is going to be a Proud Family revival coming to Disney+. While the streaming site has yet to confirm or deny it, several cast members got together last week for a holiday party.
That makes us wonder if Soleil Moon Frye, Alisa Reyes, Kyla Pratt, Raquel Lee Bolleau, and Paula Jai Parker are trying to tell us the rumors are true. Which I think they are.
How excited would you be to see Zoey Howzer, LaCienega Boulevardez, Penny Proud, Nubia Gross, and Trudy Proud on the small screen again with Sugar Mama and Oscar Proud? What is Disney+ waiting for, for Baby Yoda to grow up?
Even though, it has been 31 years since their show ended its first run, the two of them look as close ever. Which makes me even more excited for the revival. Especially since there are rumors Peacock might be free!
My daughter begged me to dress up as Punky and then asked me to roll the camera. No idea what team she is talking about. lol. She wants to be the next Punky 🙂
Soleil Moon Frye‘s daughter wanted to dress up as her mom’s most famous role and Jagger looks just like her when she played Punky Brewster. The 7 year old knows she truly is her mother’s mini-me. So much so, she wants reboot the show and play the lead character. I am all for it, I can see Punky Brewster being a huge hit today, couldn’t you?
Ever since we got to know Soleil Moon Frye as Punky Brewster, she has always had long hair, That is until now because she got a drastic do. The Sabrina the Teenage Witch roommate has always wondered what she would like with shorter hair, so she finally decided to do it. The mother of two documented her hairstylist doing his magic and when he was done she had a sleek bob. You know what she looks great, but then again she always does.
My favorite part of the video is when her daughters Poet and Jagger see her for the first time. How precious was it when the six and the four year olds were shocked by their mom’s new look?
On the kids note, I am wondering if she is expecting her third baby because Melissa Joan Hart and her were pregnant with their first two kids together?
