Very cool. But some of these have been done before, multiple times on other programs. Where's the Kids Incorporated Reunion?

I agree. Growing Pains, Happy Days and One Day at a Time has been done a lot. How about Three's Company, Diff'rent Strokes, and Perfect Strangers instead? Or even Family Matters. Newhart, Murphy Brown and Knots Landing are first timers I think.

Yeah I saw the Growing Pains reunion on Larry King and on the dvd, and the Murphy Brown feature on the dvd (although they weren't all together). It'll be interesting to see the Murphy Brown cast all together as well as the casts of Newhart and possibly Taxi. It'll also be interesting to see the Gary Coleman interview. I saw the Family Ties one online, that was cool. Too bad I missed the Cosby Show kids one but I never watch Oprah

Didn't they do a TAXI reunion a few years ago, a one hour special and Knots Landing, they had a 4 hour mini-series several years ago.

Since NBC is doing so many of these its too bad they didnt promote their own show LAS VEGAS when earlier this season Selleck, Manetti and Mosely all appeared on camera for the first time in 20 years as sort of a Magnum PI reunion.

Yes, the 2003 marathon on ABC. It aired during sweeps in primetime and it got huge ratings.

I"m really looking forward to the Murphy Brown reunion. I don't think they've been reunited since the show went off the air . . . I'm not sure if they were altogether on the DVD, or if they were interviewed at different times.

Let's hope it'll boost sales for those shows. You'd think they could hold up a copy of Murphy Brown season 1 or One Day at a Time season 1.

I hope so, besides Happy Days and Newhart all the other shows are in danger of not being continued on DVD. I really hope that Friday is the Taxi cast.
