    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.

        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.

      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.

    How about a cartoon where his liar character is a politician?

    Oops, that would be an animated news show…

    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.
