‘I might love a candy character like that determining what to do about these instances, however I don’t know what that’s in the meanwhile. I don’t see the humor in it [present day] but.’
Whereas we’re no nearer to Alicia and Paul reprising their roles for an additional challenge, Amy did share her hopes that Clueless ‘can proceed to dwell in many various varieties’ going ahead, suggesting a podcast or perhaps a online game.
