In Living Color 2.0

Now TV is getting into the act of remakes!

Please, please, PLEASE - someone with a halfway original idea step forward in Hollywood. Thank you.

While we wait for a miracle, we'll tell you about Jamie Foxx's new venture- a new In Living Color-esque sketch comedy show for FOX. FOX has already picked up a pilot for the project, which remains untitled and uncasted with anyone worth mentioning. However, joining Jamie on the producing side will be MadTV creators Fax Bahr and Adam Small, so the show will probably have a decent chance to taking off.

But it just sounds like a waste to us!

What do U think?

      I hate to agree Perez but it sounds like a waste of time I loved In Living Color but Jamie fox sucked on that show his played out Wanda character was one of the stupidest sketches. Never found him funny…

      I loved In Living Color and Mad TV so you bet I'll watch.



    12. 12

      I'm gonna rock your world! LUV Wanda!

      I LOVED In Living Color and would welcome it again. Wish they could get Jim Carrey back on - he had so many great characters.



    14. 14

      You start with Living Color, and then move on to better things, you don't RETURN to Living Color. Then again, this man is butt-ugly and completely overrated.

      He is the most arrogant obnoqsious asshole



    16. 16

      Jaimie Fox is gay, so why is he calling making racist comments. He needs to say sorry to someone and he knows who it is. hey now

      Re: racmwil – "obnoqsious". Really?

      I think they can catch lightening in a bottle with another 'In Living Color' type show, if the writing's good. The genius behind that show were the Wayans Brothers, particularly Keenan. Where'd he disappear to, BTW?

      Anyway, the 'Wanda-rilla' character Foxx created was hilarious, especially if Tommy Davis was also in the scene. Comic gold.

      the fox hole sucks I hope they can the show. jibba jabba jibba jabba jibba jibba.

      I don't think it's a waste at all. Atleast it's a try. Being an actor myself and a black one at that, I love sketch comedy and i love to do it; however, you don't see us on SNL. In Living Color was popular amongst black audiences so while you think it may be a waste, alot of people who loved the show are hoping it's just as good as the original. If not, then still, much respect for Jamie Foxx bringing it back. He's doing what alot of actors with a certain amount of success in Hollywood should be doing: creating their own projects.



    20. 20

      Sounds like a good idea if it's done well. The original was great. SNL sucks now. I'm so distracted while watching it. You can see the actors continually looking off screen to read their lines, crap. I hope the new incarnation of ILC gives em a run for their money.



    21. 21

      if this fool knows what's good for him he'll shut the fuck up about howard and apologize. he does NOT want to take on the stern nation. it will not turn out well for him at all.



    22. 22

      Happy!

      miley the gummy bear says your a buck toothed fool

      I never watched the original so I may watch it once. Didn't Paula Abdul dance on this show. Will they hire her again? (In her stoned out stupor sort of way)
