To be a part of this is a dream come true for me and for everyone involved,&#8221; Kimmel said.<\/p>\n<p>Added Lear: &#8220;They have said over and over again that these two shows were meant for the &#8217;70s and would not work today. We disagree with them and are here to prove, with two great casts depicting\u00a0<em>All in the Family\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0<em>The Jeffersons<\/em>, the timelessness of human nature.\u00a0I cannot wait to see what these glorious performers make in our time of these indelible characters, and I couldn\u2019t be more grateful for Jimmy Kimmel, Sony and ABC for their collective willingness to conceive and pursue this never-been-done-before event.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The live production was years in the making, according to the\u00a0<em>Hollywood Reporter<\/em>. Ferrell, Lear and Kimmel are among the executive producers. Lear recently turned 96.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are honored and elated to be involved in retelling these groundbreaking stories, which are as relevant today as they were 40 years ago when they first aired. And to be working with such brilliant icons as Norman Lear and Jimmy Kimmel, as well as this dream cast, in this exciting new format, is nothing short of amazing!\u201d Sony Pictures Television Studios president Jeff Frost and co-presidents Chris Parnell and Jason Clodfelter said in a statement.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embedded-content embedded-content--image is-embed-initialized\" data-template=\"image\" data-nodetype=\"image\" data-id=\"[NODEID]\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess) Jimmy Kimmel has announced he will present a live, 90-minute re-creation of two of Norman Lear&#8217;s classic television shows, &#8220;All In The Family&#8221;
