Random thoughts of a future YCDTOTV........

[rayrayfuntimes]

I stumbled upon this site several days ago...and I must admit, it has brought up some fond memories of watching the show as a child. Now at 28, I realize the show as we knew it is gone for good, but why cant there be a new variation for our future and present children, and even us, to enjoy??
WIth the formula of adults and children in the same show, combined with outrageous costumes, funny characters, etc. I would think it would be a no brainer. Doesnt even have to be called YCDTOTV, just have a similar, fun feel, and some more modern stories, jokes, etc. Perhaps even have some rare appearances from old cast members, which could keep us adults tuned in as well. And..even the adult characters could be different...why not a "raging gym teacher", and an "elderly custodian" who gossips about all the kids to each other. So on and so forth...I would think it could happen.
I currently live in FL, and have spent some time here and there in LA, and even done auditions, appeared in a music video, and a brief appearance on a vh1 reality show. However....Im just as sick of reality tv as anyone.... I say its time we get back to simple, fun comedy that brings adults and children together. Just my opinion...feel free to write me with yours!

While I only have limited connections at the moment, trust me Ray -- I'm working on it.

Keep me posted. Just curious...where do you see such a show ending up network wise. Nick? Disney? abc family? Sorry to say my only connections producer, and agent wise are not closely related to this type of genre, more mtv trash reality, ha. Stay in touch!

I think it would need Nickelodeon as its home. Especially if it were to feature green slime and other necessary elements. Of course, to retain its integrity and continue to push boundaries, it might wind up in the first slot on Nick at Nite. Dare to dream, I guess.

Not to mention Nickelodeon has had a trademark on green slime since the 90s.

That -- and the fact that Nickelodeon needs to diversify their live-action programming. No disrespect to Schneider/Tollin/Robbins, but Nick should start showcasing programs that don't share the EXACT SAME BRAND OF HUMOR over and over again. Classic shows like this and a certain game show need to be revived. While the original "You Can't" stands well on its own without question, a revival could explore territories the previous version never did.

That's why I loved Chris and Ric's "How'd This Get Online?" and the way it introduced a modern feel to our beloved program. The new "You Still Can't" will provide another great animated tribute to the show, which I completely look forward to watching. However, I personally believe a live-action version is ultimately necessary. I'm certainly up to the challenge and will do everything I can to make it happen.

Right about the same time that hell will freeze over.
