Netflix has ordered an animated reboot of Norman Lear's 1970s comedy Good Times, with former NBA MVP Steph Curry of the Golden State Warriors and Family Guy's Seth MacFarlane also tied to the project, which will contain 10 episodes.

"It's a dream come true to be working with the legendary talents of Norman Lear, Seth McFarlane and Stephen Curry," Sony Pictures TV showrunner and executive producer Carl Jones said. "We are excited to carry on the original legacy of Good Times -- but now animated and a little edgier. Let’s just say the struggle has just gotten strugglier."

Jones' past credits include other animated series such as The Boondocks and Black Dynamite. The description for the animated Good Times states that follows "the Evans family as they navigate today’s world and contemporary social issues. Just as the original did years ago, Good Times strives to remind us that with the love of our family, we can keep our heads above water."

"We can't think of anything better, at this time in our culture, than a reimagining of Good Times animated," Lear and Miller said in a joint statement. "In a year filled with darkness, this is one bright light we won’t soon forget. Thank you, Sony. Thank you, Netflix. Bless us all."

"It's a thrill to be partnering with Norman Lear and to help bring new life to his groundbreaking show Good Times, through the talent and personal stories of Carl Jones and the team at Unanimous," MacFarlane and Huggins said in a joint statement. "Animation is the ideal medium with which to reimagine the original show, and through the lens of Carl's sharp, biting humor, audiences will grow to love these classic characters all over again."
