The late-80's hit "Murphy Brown" is making its way back to primetime. The show centered on a female journalist who had a knack for calling out hypocrisy and causing controversy.

The show won five Emmy awards and lasted 10 seasons.

The reboot is set in present day with the 24 hour news cycle, tweets and MeToo movement.

Most of the original cast including, Candice Bergen as Murphy Brown, will be returning to FYI, a fictional TV news magazine show.
