Candy71 revealed some of the new cast members.
Lil Rel I remember him from a few years back on Bill Bellamy's Who's Got Jokes and seen him last year on Comedy Central. I think he will be good. He has some characters he does in his stand up about his dad, who still talks like he's in the 70s and his mom, who smokes and sounds like a man.
Jennifer Bartels Never heard of here, not sure of her backgroundas either a stand up or an actor?
Jermaine Fowler Same as Jennifer, don't know of him.
A fly girl has also been named Ashley Everett She is a former back up dancer for Beyonce.
And the maried team of Tabitha and Napolean D'umo will be the choreogropher(s).
Another writer to go along with James Davis and Ian Edwards Maronzio Vance

Will ‘In Living Color’ Make The FOX 25th Year Anniversary Special?March 27, 20124 Comments As you already know- because we have been reporting it for weeks- the FOX network is in plans to bring back In Living Color. We heard from our sources that the cast is taking shapethis week as they are finalizing the entire cast for what we hear will be a 2 episode deal, with a kick off reunion show of the past cast members. You may have heard from other websites (and there were a lot of them) who carried theTommy Davidson story where he mentioned the reunion. He was right because FOX has already contacted all of the past stars including Jamie Foxx, Damon Wayans and Jim Carrey(just to name a few) to make a guest appearance on the show. What you haven’t heard is that because the casting has fallen behind, the In Living Colorreunion may not make the special kick of celebration that the network is planning with other iconic shows such as Married… With Children and The X Files, both shows which will have their entire casts on board for their reunion specials. The plan is FOX will be celebrating theFOX 25th Anniversary Special with these shows that assisted in launching the network to its prominence of where it is today. So the question remains, will FOX push the reunion back slightly until the casting is complete or with the network just slot the special to air at a later date? We shall see. Stay tuned as this story is developing daily. Leave a comment below and follow us on Twitter @thehumormill!

---------------------------
The fly girls cast haven't came out yet. For what I been hearing Keenen wasn't really feeling a lot of the black girls that auditioned. That's why he did another fly girl audition for black girls early this month, He want that J-lo, Lisa Marie Todd, Jossie Harris etc... flavor. Ashley Everett is just a rumor, but don't rule her out.

In Living Color was so hot, that it produced four adult film spoofs. The first two came out in 1992 and 1993, during In Living Color's hey day and it was called "IN LOVING COLOR." It featured characters like Horny the Clown, Sex Marshall Bill, Men on Porn, Fly Girls, Homeboy Shopping Network people and Arsenio Ball.
And apparently there was on last year, called In Loving Color Porn Paradoy. It apparently has nothing to do with the series.
I've seen none of these so don't know if they're any good or not, lol. [Edited 3/30/12 21:14pm] PRINCE: Always and Forever

Henry Cho is a weird choice. He's a veteran and the others are young and unknown. I mean he's 50 years old and the others are in their 20s. He's older than most of the original cast besides Keenen and Damon, lol. Good luck to all of the cast members, I really hope this show succeeds and it will never disappear like it did almost 20 years ago. PRINCE: Always and Forever

Confirmed- ‘In Living Color’ Will Join The FOX 25th Anniversary Special!April 1, 2012 No Comments A couple of days ago we were told by several sources that the new special that FOX is producing for their 25t Anniversary was possibly not going to include In Living Color, but was going to include the iconic shows as Married With Children, That ’70s Show, The Simpsons, Arrested Development, and The X-Files. The star-studded evening was to include talent from both past and present FOX series and reunite cast members from some of your favorite shows. Well, now that has changed. We hear that In Living Color will be added to the special, and will include some of the stars from the original cast. We even heard that actress Jennifer Lopez is scheduled to show and join Damon Wayans, Jamie Foxx, Jim Carrey and the rest of the original-and new- cast! FOX’s 25TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL will be executive-produced by Don Mischer and Charlie Haykel, and will have Juliane Hare to serve as producer and Louis J. Horvitz to direct the special.

Keenen Ivory Wayans started out his brilliant career as a stand-up. So, of course his cast would be filled with stand up comedians. During the Keenen years (1990-1993) All of his male performers started out as stand up comics. Of the females, the two Kims (Coles and his sister) were stand up comics. Kelly and T'Keyah came from stage background and Wentworth from the improv world.
I will name the specials the ILC stand-up did while the show was on the air.
In Keenen's early years, he was known as the best black comic working New York besides Eddie Murphy "quoted by Eddie himself." His first performed on An Evening at the Imprcv but it was his spot on Johnny Carson that made him an up and coming star. But, is was his brother Damon who took over the family reigns as the king of Wayans stand-up. Before his first One Night Stand on HBO just as ILC was taking shape in 89' he had performed his stand up many times on Robert Townsend's Partners in Crime, Solid Gold and even on his current show at the time, Saturday Night Live.
Tommy Davidson Takin' It To DC: Showtime 1991 But is was Tommy Davidson, who was the first with his own televised special. He was first seen a few years early with a great set on Robert Townsend's Partners in Crime. His first special, "Takin' It To DC" was only a half hour long airing in the summer of 1990 on the Showtime Network.
Damon Wayans The Last Stand?: HBO 1991 Later on that year, Damon got his first of many hour long stand-ups on HBO, the highly rated "The Last Stand." As this was to be his last comedy show. Unlike his friend Eddie Murphy (who retired in 1988) he came back in 1993. Two more hour long specials followed, with "Still Standing" on HBO in 97 and and Comedy Central's "Way Out" from 2008. [img:$uid]http://cps-static.rovicorp.com/1/adg/cov250/drt800/t814/t81476xzgve.jpg?partner=allrovi.com[/img:$uid]
Tommy Davidson Illin' In Philly: Showtime 1991 The next year, two more special aired on Showtime. Tommy Davidson is back now, with an hour long special, the classic "Illin' in Philly" which also debuted in the summer. Showtime would get with him one more time, after ILC was off the air, he was in NYC now for 1996's "On The Strength on New York." [img:$uid]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51FMV7FB9BL._SL500_AA300_.jpg[/img:$uid]
Jim Carrey Un-Natural Act: Showtime 1991 James Carrey as he was billed on the show, was now Jim Carrey for his "The Un-Natural Act."This was rare because Jim barley performed his stand up besides a late 80s appearance from An Evening at the Improv adnthe Comedy Store Special.
Jamie Foxx: Straight From the Foxxhole: HBO 1993 A year and a half passed by and the Wayans left the series before a new cast member, Jamie Foxx put out his HBO special "Straight From the Foxxhole." ILC was his debut, so he was never featured anywhere else, but he did host Def Comedy Jam in 1996. 1997's "Unleashed" and 2002's "I Might Need Security" also aired on HBO. [img:$uid]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a9/Straight_from_the_foxxhole.jpg/185px-Straight_from_the_foxxhole.jpg[/img:$uid]
Of those five specials, 2 have made it to DVD (Wayans and Foxx), one on VHS (Illin' In Philly) but the other two have seen no releases. I'm really surprised about the Carrey special never making it to a home release. -----
The other stand ups from the series (Keenen Years.)
David Alan Grier On his first night ever doing stand up in 1982, he met Keenen. He said that night, Keenen was the only comic who was nice to him and told himwhat and what not to do. They've been friends ever since. He was given a standing ovation on Showtime at the Apollo in 1987. But it would be 15 years (in between hosting Premium Blend in 1999, one of 3 cast members, the other were Davidson in 1997 and Damon in 2005) before his first hour long special would air in 2002 on Comedy Central. "The Book of David: The Cult Figure's Manifesto.
Kim Wayans After big brothers Keenen and Damon found success in stand up, it was only natural for her to follow suite. She began her career in 1985 performing in clubs around LA like the Laugh Factory. She's currently on a on woman tour called "A Handsome Woman." Sadly, she's never been caught on film.
Kim Coles Kim began as a stand up after a failed modeling career. Kim made her fame from her many appearances on Showtime at the Apollo in the late 1980s. She's performed on BET Comic View.
Shawn Wayans He started out as DJ SW-1 on the series, but he'd gotten into the comedy world a few years earlier as a 17 year old high school senior. He's hosted "Comic Come Home" on Comedy Central in 1998.
Steve Park Before ILC, he was seen on "Do The Right Thing." He started doin stand up for a short period of time in the late 80s and early 90s.
Marlon Wayans The youngest Wayans did a few hundred stand up shows before he got on ILC and did his first movie role and called it quits until last year as he prepares for his role as Richard Pryor. He co-hosted the 2000 MTV Movie Awards along with brother Shawn.
-----
After Keenen departed, stand-ups like AJ Jamal, David Edwards and Greer Barnes would join the cast as featured players. Reggie McFadden from Def Comedy Jam fame would join the cast in the last season as did very frequent special guest Chris Rock.

SKETCH COMEDY: In Living Color's influences and cast members sketch shows after ILC ... This little essay will be about performers on In Living Color who went and stared or created their own sketch series.
Chris Rock, was a freqent performer on ILC's last season, he came over from SNL. He was never supposed to be on SNL, as Keenen wanted him on ILC, but the network didn't. Ellen Cleghrne and Molly Shannon both appeared on 2 episodes a piece before gettin on as performers on SNL.

While In Living Color was hot, they had heated competition from of course SNL and also the series Kids in The Hall, which premiered aromd the same time (1989) and lasted the same amount of seasons.
Two years after In Living Color was on the air, similar sketch shows started coming out the woodworks. The first was Uptown Comedy Club which was actually syndicated (Fox in Houston) early Sunday morning. You could say it featured a b-team of comics like Tracy Morgan, Jim Breuer, Debra Wilson, Flex Alexander among others. It featured sketches, and from time to time had a guest which would double as a stand up comic and be featured on it’s main attraction, the Yo Mama or Snaps battle. ILC even made a similar sketch in the last season called “Wheel of Dozens.”

Unaired Sketches ... and more In Living Color was filmed on Friday and aired two days later, Sunday evening. Enough time for the network to edit and figure out what couldn't or could get on the air. Some sketches got by the by the censors, while others didn't.
Bolt 45 The first was a sketch from the first season, Bolt 45. It was a take on Colt 45 commercials with Billy Dee Williams. It aired once, and has never been seen again. Fox felt it made fun of date rape. Thankfully the good folks at youtube have it here for us.
The Buttmans: Guess Who's Coming to Dinner Keenen said the censors were always in the building looking over their back. He'd tell the cast to do their stuff and let me worry about this. An airing of the second installment of the Buttmans was not supposed to go. But the tapes got mixed up and it got on.
Men on Football The one time they did go on live, was during the 1992 SuperBowl. They really got in trouble during a Men on Films sketch about NFL players and actors. But, the rating were so good, over 10 million, it caused the NFL to really put on a SuperBowl halftime show. And the next year, who else, but Michal Jackson was there.
Those got by the censors. Some sketches didn't.
The Exxon Family This sketch actually replaced the Bolt 45 sketch in syndication and on the DVD. This was first shown during the fourth season when Keenen was having problems with the network. They started to air reruns on the series on Thursday nights.
Unaired sketches Here is a list of some sketches that never made it past Friday.
-Sammy Davis Jr sings Mandela -Fat Boys Appointed to the Superior Court -Mike Tyson: Hard-Hitting Investigative Reporter
Those are what I found searching the web.
Also, on a Season 3 episodes titled Bloopers, we see a bunch of stuff that didn't make it. There was a sketch of David Alan Grier playing Gary Coleman. There was a recurring character played by Kelly Coffield, Velma Mulholland in the bloopers that never aired?
Also, on the season box sets, a few photos don't match the sketches. One, being a pic of Marlon Wayans dressed in a bear outfit. Another of Tommy Davidson.
All in all, there are many unaired sketches. Hopefully, with the revival, Fox can release some of them. PRINCE: Always and Forever

I seen them all back in the 90's when I was a teen, the best scenes IMO were the Arsenio Ball scenes because he would bang the hottest chics, Keisha, Alicia Rio, Persia etc., in the films. Sean Michaels played Arsenio of course, he also wrote and directed those movies too. | |
