So I saw that a show I loved as a kid (Night Court) will be getting a sequel. It will center around the daughter of the Judge from the original. I avoid reboots/sequels in the current year like the plague but I do notice that whenever they do a sequel nobody seems to have sons.

Well, I don't know if you remember how they handled Fielding's character - it was pretty subtle, I guess, especially for the modern day where beating people over the head with a sledgehammer is de rigeur.
Remember, it turned out that he was from a poor hillbilly family from Louisiana, and he played the accordion. That was his big come-uppance in the original show (especially when we got to see Brent Spiner as his dad.)
I can only imagine what they'd do this time around. His parents would be confederate-flag wavers from alabama or some shit.
Yeah, us older generations, our wanna be middle class parents would send girls to piano lessons, and boys for accordion lessons. I don't know why. But playing the accordion is really geeky, and a big embarrassment for a lot of guys (anyway, that's why Weird Al, and why women in older media just seem to sort of know how to play the piano out of nowhere.)
