"In Living Color" Returns to Fox with New Cast

[Fnord]

Deadline has learned that Fox is bringing back its 1990 sketch comedy series "In Living Color," which will be hosted and produced by Keenen Ivory Wayans, the creator of the show. The network has ordered two half-hour specials to air as part of its 25th anniversary celebration. If successful, "In Living Color" will become part of the regular schedule next season.

The original show helped launch the careers of a slew of comedy actors, including Wayans; his siblings Damon, Shawn, Kim and later Marlon; as well as Jim Carrey, Jamie Foxx and David Alan Grier - and of course Jennifer Lopez, who was one of the Fly Girls. It spawned such iconic characters as Homey D. Clown (Damon Wayans), Wanda (Jamie Foxx) and Fire Marshall Bill (Jim Carrey).

"In Living Color" ended its run in 1994 after five seasons. Wayans is planning to revive the sketch comedy with a new cast.

Heard about this a while back .   actually looking forward to seeing if Keenen Ivory Wayans  can catch the magic again. 

if he can get the right people and, and the right writing staff behind this.  He should have no problem making this a hit again
