ESPN To Immediately Remake All Ten Episodes Of The Last Dance

Get ready to relive your favorite moments from The Last Dance, with all new bonus features and extra content, as ESPN has announced they will be remaking the hit docuseries immediately. 

“This is going to be the biggest television event since The Last Dance,” said ESPN head of programming, Rick Benton, before emphasizing that it, “will be in stunning HD this time.” If fan reaction to the original is any indicator to this new version, which features a younger-hotter Phil Jackson, ESPN will likely have another very profitable hit on its hands. 

“The first go round was a lot of fun, we’re very happy with it, and it spiked our Q3 numbers. But now we have the technology to include things such as: more variations on Dennis Rodman’s hairstyle, cricket sound effects whenever Isiah Thomas speaks, and seven extra seconds of Carmen Electra. We even added shots of Michael Jordan’s locker room meetup with Kelsey Grammer because the Seinfeld part was such a hit we figured ‘get Frasier in there.’ Plus, it’ll be in stunning HD,” explained Benton.   

With Jon Favreau signed on to helm the new live-action remake, the series is already testing well with younger audiences, but those “old enough to appreciate the original’s greatness,” haven’t been impressed.  To this point Benton replied, “we know people love the original, it’s not going away, it’ll still be airing on ESPN classic under a new ten year deal. But we just hope people don’t romanticize the first one to the point that they can’t appreciate the remake for its own greatness and stunning HD.”

If this is successful, ESPN is prepared to create another groundbreaking docuseries exploring the day to day of Jordan’s life. Pending this remake’s success, ESPN is committed to release a deep dive into everyday of Jordan’s existence culminating in 4698 episodes to be airing until 2038.
