Despite airing its final episode more than 15 years ago, ‘Sister Sister’ remains one of the most loved and lauded sitcoms of all time.

From the antics of leads Tia and Tamera Mowry, to the laughs served up by supporting characters Lisa, Ray, and of course Roger, the show set a precedent few have been able to rival.

Still, with both Mowry sisters having blossomed into womanhood and enjoying success in their solo endeavours, a reboot seemed somewhat far-fetched.

Not anymore.

During an interview to promote new show Instant Mom, Tia revealed that she wants to revisit the twins’ on-screen story, going as far as to relay the direction she’d want it to take.
