Get ready for a blast from the past! The beloved, yet raunchy, British comedy series, The Inbetweeners, is making a comeback, and it's got everyone talking. Time may march on, but these foul-mouthed teens are here to stay, and they're bringing their unique brand of humor back to our screens.
The show's creators, Iain Morris and Damon Beesley, have struck a deal with Bajinjay UK, opening up a world of possibilities for the return of this iconic series. It's an exciting development, especially considering the original production company, Bwark Productions, had been sold to Zodiak Media, which was later acquired by Banijay. This new partnership means we can expect to see the Inbetweeners crew in all sorts of new adventures, across various platforms, from film to TV and even the stage.
But here's where it gets intriguing: what form will this revival take? Will it be a continuation of the original story, following the beloved Fab Four - Jay, Will, Neil, and Simon? The creators have hinted at more adventures for these characters, and the actors themselves seem keen to reunite. Joe Thomas, who plays Simon Cooper, expressed interest in a podcast, saying, "All of us feel it would be nice to do. We still get along, and if the opportunity arises, I think we'd all be up for it."
The Inbetweeners originally aired for three seasons on Channel 4, captivating audiences from 2008 to 2010. Since then, it's spawned two movies and an American remake, with Taika Waititi directing several episodes. There was even a reunion special in 2019, which, let's just say, didn't go down too well, leading to an apology from star James Buckley.
And this is the part most people miss: despite the mixed reactions to some of the show's spinoffs, the original series remains a cult classic. So, will this new deal bring us a worthy successor, or will it be a case of leaving well enough alone? What do you think? Share your thoughts in the comments - we'd love to hear your take on this controversial comeback!
