Jim Carrey reunited with In Living Colors cast

Jim Carrey reunited with the cast of In Living Color on Saturday (14Apr12) as the classic comedy series was honoured at the 2012 TV Land Awards.

The funnyman, who got his big break on In Living Color, joined former co-stars including Keenen Ivory Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Marlon Wayans and David Alan Grier onstage to accept the Groundbreaking Award from Whoopi Goldberg.

The 10th Annual TV Land Awards in New York marked the first time the cast has met up since the sketch show, which also launched Jamie Foxx and Jennifer Lopez's careers, went off the air in 1994.

Laverne & Shirley won the Fan Favorite Award, while the cast of Murphy Brown picked up the Impact Award, and Valerie Bertinelli and Mackenzie Phillips took home the Innovator Award on behalf of One Day At A Time.

Comedian Mike Myers was also on hand to present the Pop Culture Award to Paul Reubens for his kids' show Pee-wee's Playhouse.

Soul queen Aretha Franklin was feted with the Music Icon Award and was serenaded by John Legend. The Respect hitmaker also performed four of her hits.

The ceremony, which was hosted by TV personality Kelly Ripa, will be broadcast on 29 April (12).
