Crazy Like a FOX: Manimal returns to TV!


HOLLYWOOD,CA(AccessHollywood) In what can only be described as a stupendous error in judgment, part time television network FOX-TV has renewed a show that was cancelled over 20 years ago.
Manimal has been picked up for a full run beginning in the Fall season. Previous underachievers 24 and The O.C. are expected to be displaced to accomodate an unprecedented twice weekly schedule.
"Crazy" Jim Wirkuss, Fox-TV's head of development has attributed the move to "Something I did while I was stoned, seriously I was frickin' hammered... I woke up in a dumpster..." and also lamented, "We're paying the black dude a million bucks an episode? his price went way up after Ice Pirates".
Entertainment pundits have declared the bold move a "career ending blunder" and "an idea much much worse than Ally McBeal".
Simon McCorkindale, the show's lead, is allegedly cutting short his national tour of "Falcon's Crest: the musical" to begin filming new episodes.
