If you’ve picked up the Reunions issue of Entertainment Weekly, you know that in honor of the magazine’s 20th anniversary, we’ve reunited cast members from TV classics including The West Wing, Will & Grace, Alias, Gilmore Girls, Married… With Children, Northern Exposure, Roots, and The Muppet Show. (See the links below.) If you could reunite a cast for a sitdown chat — whether it be two people or a group comparable to President Bartlet’s — who would you choose, and what would you ask?
Tops on my list: Sports Night. I’d like to know where those characters are today (and who they’re married to), and if Josh Charles (CBS’ The Good Wife) and Peter Krause (NBC’s Parenthood) ever made a bet on the Tuesday at 10 p.m. timeslot. Also, even though The Early Show reunited the FYI team in 2009, Murphy Brown. Candice Bergen said then that the network had really wanted Heather Locklear to play Murphy, so you know there are great battles to discuss. Maybe the press would finally get season 2 and beyond released on DVD. There’s nothing worse than rediscovering your love for an old show when the first season hits… and then not being able to see someone hook up with Scott Bakula.

Scream 4 cast talks about the latest installment
It will always be Firefly for me. Such a great, funny, cast. Maybe Buffy too. Any Whedon show.
Also Arrested Development.
Buffy and Firefly, yeah. Agreed.
I definitely agree with Buffy and Firefly. But also – Boy Meets World!
First thing I thought of! Firefly, Buffy, or Angel.
AMEN!!
And in a few years, Dollhouse will be on that list too! God I love Joss Whedon
Hands down, it would be ‘Buffy’ as well. I have to know what happened to the slayer and the Scooby gang!
You could just pick up the comics. (Though on second thought, maybe you’re better off not knowing.)
LOL MM. My thoughts exactly. The comics are certainly not the Buffy I remember.
Buffy was my first thought too! And Veronica Mars.
Yeah, you really should avoid the comics like the plague. There’s no good there. Especially for some really well liked characters.
Buff and Firefly, definitely!
Yes! To all of these. Buffy, Angel, Firefly, AD, I would also add Veronica Mars into the mix, although watching Party Down is like watching a reunion!
Yes! Veronica Mars and Buffy!
Definitely Veronica Mars!
Man I need some Whedon reunions in my life stat. Can we just have a whole issue dedicated to that??
I love that idea!
Yes yes yes yes yes. Whedon shows. All of them. Reunions. Now.
Buffy and Angel!
I was just about to say Buffy or Arrested! And The Wire. That could be really interesting.
Buffy & Firefly!
For Buffy fans, check out the Paleyfest reunion panel from 2008, it is available on dvd and it runs for over an hour. All cast members except Hannigan and Boreanz are there with Joss Whedon. It is quite good, I’d like to see a reunion movie though, or even a non-buffy reunion of some of the actors. Maybe SMG on Hannigan’s HIMYM???
Definitely Felicity! Keri Russell, Scott Speedman and Scott Foley. Also Veronica Mars. And lastly FRIENDS! I heart Ross.
Agree with Felicity! So many of the actors have gone on to great careers. Or, Dawson’s Creek!
FRIENDS. Please!!
I was going to post Felicity, and figured I’d be the only one. Yay, that I’m not the only one wanting this! I would watch this show now, if it were on! I loved it!
FRIENDS!
Any Whedon show
DEFINITELY FRIENDS! That would be beyond epic…
Also: Everwood, Dawson’s Creek and Veronica Mars.
But really, I’d love to see the cast of Friends together again… it would make my day.
ooh yes Felicity…also My So-Called Life, and Moonlight
I grew up watching TGIF, so I’d love to see a Full House, Home Improvement and Family Matters reunion. Oh, tack on Fresh Prince of Bel Air too!
full house WOULD be kind of awesome.
Yes! I was going to say Full House too! Also, Home Improvement would be great – and Who’s the Boss?
FULL HOUSE! Please!
oh yes! I didn’t even think of those shows, but that would be fun. Especially Full House and Boy Meets World. I lived and breathed those shows back in the day
Boy Meets World – I would love to see that, Cory, Sean, Eric, and Topenga of course.
YES! Everything TGIF. Especially Boy Meets World. I love TGIF! I wish they would play reruns of those shows on Fridays.
Wonder Years
The Cosby Show/A Different World
Yes, Wonder Years!
The Bluths!!!
Hell yeah
I know they’ve had reunions in the past, but a MASH reunion is always welcome!
You’ve got my vote. Love to see all of the stars that are still alive to tell stories from when the show was shot
The Wire.
Best television drama.
Ever.
I would looove to see a Wire reunion!
My So Called Life
A Different World
Agreed on MSCL!!
Yessss My So Called Life!! I’m still upset that there wasn’t a second season.
The Wonder Years!!!!
Yes! I welcome a Wonder Years reunion and I’d love to see a Boy Meets World reunion too. Lets bring the Savage boys back!
Yes on Boy Meets World! And Who’s the Boss, The Nanny, Mad about You, and Due South
Not that it would EVER happen, but I would love a “21 Jump Street” reunion of all the first season characters, including Captain Jenko
why not captin fuller as well?
Captain Fuller is welcome too! He was part of the first season cast. When I say first season, I mean Hanson, Penhall, Ioki, Hoffs, Fuller, and Jenko. Blowfish would be nice, but not totally necessary, and Booker and the fifth season guys don’t need to be there.
WKRP in Cincinnati!!
I agree
BOY MEETS WORLD!!
Or Full House, or Arrested Development!
agreed with all…TGIF please! or some show where not many in the cast is still working since we all know where the Gilmore Girls cast is…
BMW for the win!
Boy Meets World all the way!!
Hell to the yes for all of those, but BMW in particular. And Arrested.
Queer As Folk!
Watch out now, that could be considered cyber bullying.
agreed, best show!
Heck yeah!
ER. Like, everybody, even Dr. Romano. Sure, it’d be hundreds of people, but I bet it’d be one heck of a party.
Some may say “too soon” but I would like to see the cast of Lost and ask them what their honest opinion is of the series finale.
Too soon.
Second that. I’d love to see that reunion in another 5 years at least.
Defiantly too soon. In 5+ years, that would be great but it was only a few months ago they were still doing full cast interviews.
It may be too soon, but I miss them on my TV already.
