An insider told the news site that the story for the new series would be about Paul and Jamie coping with their daughter moving out of home.
The plot for the present day set season will involve the couple 'grappling with empty-nest syndrome in the wake of now-17-year-old daughter Mabel’s admission to college,' claim the site.
'If we can find the story to tell, and anybody’s interested, I’d be open to it,' Reiser told People in October.

But the veteran actor slowly warmed to an eighth season of the NBC hit, saying:
'To me, it’s interesting when I see my kids are growing and leaving the house. It’s like, ‘Oh.’ It’s like that moment when you get married. It’s like we’re in a new world that we don’t know the rules of.'
