Clarissa Explains It All Revival Nixed by Nickelodeon Says Melissa Joan Hart

It turns out we won't be getting any new explanations from a middle-aged Clarissa. In 2018, it had been reported that Melissa Joan Hart would return as the titular character in a Clarissa Explains It All revival for Nickelodeon. She was also on board to produce the series with Mitchell Kriegman in talks to write and direct. Updates have not been fruitful since, and the reason for this, as it turns out, is that Nickelodeon has since scrapped the project.
