Director Debbie Allen took to Twitter, toying with the idea of bringing “A Different World” back on the small screen:

During its run six year run “A Different World” was the #2 ranked show in African-American households and averaged about 16-20 million viewers per week.   Attendance at historically black colleges were at an all time high, due to positive depictions of campus life on the half hour show.
