    Deadline:

    Party Down, the comedy about a group of caterers looking to break big in Hollywood, is the latest series to get a revival.

    A new version of the comedy is in the works at Starz with the original quartet of creatives, Rob Thomas, John Enbom, Paul Rudd and Dan Etheridge developing the project.

    The original series ran on Starz for two seasons between 2009 and 2010 and starred Ken Marino, Adam Scott, Jane Lynch, Martin Starr, Ryan Hansen, Lizzy Caplan and Megan Mullally.

    It’s not clear whether all of the cast will return to the revival, particularly given the fact that one of the reasons it ended was many of its stars such as Lynch, with Glee, and Scott, with Parks and Recreation, went on to star in bigger shows.

    After the last season of Veronica Mars and Arrested Development, I am very cautious about revivals.

    I loved Party Down. Hold the same thoughts though, very cautious about this.

    The last season of Veronica Mars was fine. Better than the movie, I thought. AD season 5 was better than season 4 (both the original and the revamped version). All the Tambor/Cross/Bateman stuff is super gross and disappointing and affects my enjoyment of the show.

    That being said - please bring back Party Down with the original cast. It won't be as good, but whatever.

    If they do with a new cast it has potential. If they try to recruit too many of the previous cast, the show just wouldn't make sense since the whole idea of being a caterer while trying to make it in Hollywood is what young people do not actors pushing 50.
