Cedric Yarbrough is back as Deputy Jones on Reno 911!. Quibi Cedric Yarbrough is a very funny man. You might recognize his robust voice from animated series like Netflix’s BoJack Horseman, where he played Officer Meow Meow Fuzzyface, or neighbor Tom DuBois on The Boondocks. Or you might recognize his face as Vic from The Goldbergs or when he played Deputy Jones on the wildly funny Reno 911!. During an interview on CNET’s new podcast I’m So Obsessed, Yarbrough talked about returning to Deputy Jones 11 years after the show had first wrapped by filming new 8-minute mini-episodes of Reno 911 for the streaming service Quibi.”With Quibi, you trim the fat a little bit and you just get right to the funny,” said Yarbrough. “Right to the funny morning briefing. Right to the funny joke that’s going to happen. And, right to the weird ending. So the show [Reno 911!] might be a little funnier this time.” For more like this Subscribe to the CNET Now newsletter for our editors’ picks for the most important stories of the day.
