A Game Of Horseshooooooeeeeess!!!

The mid-90s hip-hop group Arrested Development, who brought us such gems as “Tennessee” and “Mr. Wendell”, is suing the Fox network over their new sitcom that shares the group’s name. The suit claims that the sitcom’s use of the name dilutes the group’s name brand.

I know what you’re thinking, “Are they even together anymore?” The answer is no, but yes. The story goes on to say that the band has recently reunited and plans to put out an album next year. The new effort, titled “The Stuff We Put Together At Our DJs Apartment So We Could Sue Fox Sessions” should drop some time in early January.

This is not the first time Fox has been in trouble with a musical group over a show name. The group Living Colour (”Cult Of Personality” ) sued Fox back in the day over the title of the sketch comedy show “In Living Color”. The parties settled out of court.

Pending the outcome of this action, Fox has halted production on mid-season replacements “Pass The Black-Eyed Peas”, “Do You Have 50-Cent?”, “Everything But the Kitch*NSYNC”, “Exception to Ja Rule”, and “Alien Ant Farmers”. Thankfully, the reality show “Who wants to F&*% My Mom?” is still on schedule.
