    So who knows, maybe they should bring The Critic back.

      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 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 Hill Revival is still not out yet, so I spoke too soon. Lol. Here is an article on it though.

    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?
