Review of Clone High

Clone High (2023– )
6/10
Not nearly as good as the original

Warning: Spoilers
The original Clone High 2002 seemed to be aimed more at college students. Abe (glorious Will Forte) was mostly the main character but Joan was the 2nd main with about a 60/40 split.

This new show seems mostly aimed at highschoolers. There's no more Ghandi and he's sorely missed. Joan is now the main character, and Abe/Will Forte has now become a side character with about a 90/10 split.

Barely any Cleopatra except when they need a lesbian story. Oh right, suddenly she's a lesbian now versus the man eater she was before.

Instead of the Abe, Ghandi, Cleopatra scenes we now have scenes with...Frida Kahlo and Harriet Tubman.

Frieda is an awful character and could have not been in the show at all and could have been better for it. Harriet Tubman is just okay.

So we have more or less an amazing mix of characters from the original re-made with a less funny, less interesting, less enjoyable mix of characters.
