“Nothing of value was lost.”
I loved The Critic, but so many of it's jokes and plot were very relevant to the time period of the 1990s, I don't know how they could reboot it. That said, I hear King Of The Hill did a great job in this regard (I still haven't watched the new ones).
So who knows, maybe they should bring The Critic back.
It would be great because they'd talk about modern movies and when Sherman says they stink, it won't even be a joke.
Also: They brought back King of the Hill? :O
The movie industry is in such a different place than when Jay Sherman last graced us with his presence I wonder how they'd go about making a The Critic Revival. But I'd give it a whirl. I loved The Critic.
Apparently The King Of The Jill Revival is still not out yet, so I spoke too soon. Lol. Here is an article on it though.
That said, I hear King Of The Hill did a great job in this regard (I still haven't watched the new ones).
To the best of my knowledge this hasn't been released but please, and I mean this with all sincerity, prove me wrong. I would love nothing more than watching one immediately.
The KoTH reboot isn't out yet. You may be thinking of Beavis and Butthead
Buy my reboot! Buy my reboot! Buy--
Depression makes you want to relive the good years. Time to move on Jon... "I was merely acting!"
Yeah I know the 90s were cool and all, but like can't we do something else, I love Jon Lovitz but I'd rather see him try a new character out.
Plus critic shows don't exist anymore, what is he gonna be starting a YouTube channel or something?
I mean he did The Critic as a flash based webtoon when Comedy Central, ABC and Fox didn’t renew it. And those were some good episodes too.
How about a cartoon where his liar character is a politician?
Oops, that would be an animated news show...
