"Listen, I hope so. I mean, we have to. Last season was a travesty, you know? There was zero Cricket. But I hope so,” he told Comicbook.

But before that happens, it looks like the actor is still waiting for the perfect storyline for his character.

“We always want to find the right story, so it doesn't just feel like he's there for being there's sake,” he continued. “So I'm sure we'll try to keep that in mind as we prioritize because it is fun to be on the show and to have him in stories, and hopefully show him keep devolving in fun ways."

Aside from Rickety Cricket, Hornsby was once seen as Father Matthew Mara, a Philadelphia priest, in the long-running series.

However, he gave up his position, making him homeless in the end. He then fell into drug addiction and general debauchery.

His appearance also changed, turning him into a “pretty gruesome” state that he would always shock The Gang whenever they saw him.
