What, like it’s hard?

Reese Witherspoon is set to bring Elle Woods back to screens with a Legally Blonde spin-off series for Amazon MGM Studios. Though it’s unlikely that the actress herself will reprise her role as the plucky Woods, she will be producing as Gossip Girl creators Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage take on writing duties. News of the show is a sidestep from the long-gestating third installment of the original series that was announced back in 2018 but has yet to move forward.

Amazon is no stranger to serializing beloved classics for modern audiences having most recently done it with comedy thriller Mr. & Mrs. Smith. There has yet to be an official renewal announcement for a second season, but if things go right on Emmy night, audiences may see Donald Glover and Maya Erskine spring back into action. Interestingly, though, the studio is opting not to submit the show as a limited series or in the comedy categories. Instead, they’re submitting it as a secret third thing: a drama. The submission choice makes it clear that the network is taking the breakout show very seriously.

Meanwhile, the timeline is still taking comedy seriously and delighting us with some of the most humorous takes on the internet. Today’s funniest tweets include those about the hefty lengths someone went to steal a package, the only reason you should reach out to an ex and your least favorite coworker’s favorite movie.
