'In Living Color' Returning to Fox
 
*two snaps down, a twist, and a kiss--they shouldn't touch this!*

I can get with a special but cannot get with a possible series with a new cast. Let it go...let it go.

Fox will air two half-hour specials of "In Living Color" in the spring, with the option to pick it up to series next season

What's with the resurrections? Beavis n Butthead are back too. Maybe the world has finally reached reality overload and wants to try something new/old?

Great- a whole new generation of people who will call me Shanaynay. Just in time for my potential career change to teaching too!

Every time they announce one of these remakes, my husband swears that Hollywood is out of ideas.

I just cannot see this working without the original cast.

The show is so iconic because it originated during the infancy of Fox. Fox was able to take a lot of risks for the time period.

Are they still showing reruns on some of the cable channels? Any ideas which ones? I know one of the channels used to - I'd love to DVR some episodes.

What will be the difference between this and MadTV? Dancers? Bad sweaters?

Oooh! Bring back J. Lo. as a fly girl. Never gonna happen, but it would be hilarious.

Centric shows old episodes. I just checked the Guide and there will be 2 eps tonight at 10 and 10:30.
Looks like it comes on weeknights at 10 and 10:30.

Although I watched ILC religiously, I don't believe it withstands the test of time.

I would enjoy an edgy sketch comedy show on Fox again and I am fine with it being the In Living Color brand.

But as stated above, I don't see it being fundamentally different from Mad TV.

This actually went OK. I was scared that it wouldn't.

As far as ILC, I don't care how many Oscars Jamie Foxx gets or how many albums he puts out or how badly Kirstie Alley wants to do him, he will always be Wanda the Ugly Woman to me. :D
