The 1988 cult classic "Heathers" is returning to TV in a brand-new reboot. Stars Grace Victoria Cox, Melanie Field, and James Scully join Cheddar to reveal how the show is different from its iconic inspiration. They discuss how social media has changed high-school social dynamics since the movie was originally made. The new "Heathers" features actors from underrepresented communities in some of its lead roles. Cox, Scully, and Field explain how genderqueer, body positive, and African-American characters are giving a voice to marginalized communities. Finally, we put the actors to the test in a game of "Who's That Heather?" They have to identify which famous real-life Heathers said different quotes. Find out if they can tell the difference between Locklear and Graham!
