Confession. I didn’t watch the original Doogie Howser. Not one episode.

So you won’t catch me in the crowd that’s upset about this news.

Reboot all the things! Switch the genders, switch the races. MIX! IT! UP!

A reboot of “Doogie Howser, M.D.” is in the works at Disney Plus, Variety has learned from sources.

The new show will focus on a 16-year-old half-Asian, half-white female lead who works as a doctor in Hawaii. The working title for the new show is “Doogie Kealoha, M.D.”

The reboot hails from writer and executive producer Kourtney Kang. Jake Kasdan and Melvin Mar will also executive produce along with Dayna and Jesse Bochco. 20th Century Fox Television will produce, with the studio also having produced the original series. Kang, Kasdan, and Mar are all under overall deals at the studio.
