This news is weeks old but the new incarnation of Fox bought the rights to Gumby, a name I haven't heard for a very long time. I think the last thing I remember from him was the 1995 movie. I used to be hardcore into Gumby when I was young. I had a bunch of toys when I was little. A new series is planned which is cool, I guess. I suppose this means Gumby Playdoh and Funko Pops are inevitable.

Oh hey, here's another relevant property ripe for a comeback.

What the f*ck is even going ON anymore? Jesus.

As much as I used to love Gumby, I don't think he'll catch on in today's market. He's a product of his time.

Waiting for the Rainbow Brite re-re-reboot.

I mean she's literally dressed in the PRIDE flag, you'd think in the current social climate they'd be all over it.

But Jesus with these f*cking ancient executives thinking that they can still squeeze a penny out of anything that ever drew a dime. Let sh*t stay dead for crying out loud.

F*cking Gumby.

Mercy.

So, uhm... Is there a list of notable things New Fox owns? I figured most of the noteworthy stuff went to Disney.
