Clone High is coming back (though there's mixup on this being a reboot or a revival). The showrunners for the original series, including Phil Lord and Chris Miller , are returning for the series.

RE: Clone High coming back:

Say WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!

RE: Gandhi:

Oh. Oh yeah. I nearly forgot about the protests over one of the funnest parts of the show. I REALLY hope they don't get rid of him...sad

I’m hoping they go with Ghandi actually being a clone of Gary Coleman if this is a revival.

For where the reboot will air. I would be surprised if assuming it doesn’t go to cable and instead goes to streaming that they don’t go with Netflix and instead another service like HBO Max

He wasn't listed in the article, but I doubt they'll leave him out entirely. He wasn't my favorite, but he was a lead character. Maybe they'll start out with the Gary Coleman retcon.

Clone High comes back with a vengeance on HBO Max!

With an order of two seasons! gringringrin

What's weird is that they're calling it a reboot, which...will it though? Might we see a proper resolution? (Or at least a re-establishing of what transpired before and then a proper resolution?) winkwinkwink

Hey, finally, HBO Max announces something I'm interested in. tongue

Also, I'm actually surprised they announced ONE action-oriented adult series. It's not much, but it's a start.

[up][up] Don't think too hard on the "reboot" term. The media has misused it so much that it might as well as mean "revival" now

Chris Miller about to do a table read…

It's the first script for the Clone High revival! What's it called? Episode 201 - "Let's Try This Again"

It's the season 2 we waited 18 years for!

So, Gandhi or no Gandhi?

Also, interesting how there suddenly was a memetic resurgence of this show just before they announced a revival. Most interesting indeed.

I feel like the resurgence in the show's popularity was coming soon after they'd announced it was being revived? Or at least that's what I recall.

I think the renewed interest in the show meant there was a demand that made them say "yeah,we can renew this show,people actually want" just without Ghandi cos hes the whole reason the show was canned as I recall

It's gonna be lame if Gandhi is not included, though.

[up] He's probably gonna be included, just retconned as a Gary Coleman clone.

[up][up][up][up]: I always thought the renewed interest in the show was because people were realizing it came from the guys who did Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, 21 Jump Street, and The LEGO Movie before they did all those movies.

And full disclosure, Gandhi slays in the show, so they better find a way to keep him around.

Pretty weird that the people who complained about him, mostly Gandhi's followers, didn't see that "Gandhi" was a clone that cracked under pressure because he could not actually live up to the original Gandhi. And apparently was meant to be a Gary Oldman clone all along anyways

Its not pretty weird to me,they don't watch the show they just know it involves Ghandi,and as he's highly revered in their society his portrayal was going to come off as offensive to them unfortunely

Hmm, yeah.

But IIRC it was more that the Gandhi protestors who motivated MTV to drop the show were merely scapegoats as they were sort of the excuse the network used to pull the plug on the original run

I know that there were actual hunger strikes to protest the show and that was really bad publicity for them,so I think while there was definately some scaping involved that was not nessisarly all of it

MTV has been pretty terrible to their animated projects that aren't Beavis and Butt Head or Daria. I don't think it would've lasted long even without the controversy.

I'm not gonna act like I'm an expert on Indian politics but I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of those protests were from right-wingers in India. The political sphere in the country is...hectic, to put it lightly.

Expect a heavy amount of whining when the show airs and there's no Ghandi
