TV Reunions-Best,Worst,First

I have questions about t.v. reunion movies.

  1. Which was the first? Gilligan’s Island?
  2. Which was the worst? Brady Brides?
  3. Which was the best? I-Spy?

The first question must have a definitive answer, but I welcome your opinions on the other two!

There have been a lot of reunion shows- frankly, it seemed as if the Brady Bunch NEVER went away. No sooner was their lame sitcom cancelled than they were back with a lamer variety show!

The first reunion show I can recall, though, was a “Father Knows Best” reunion… late 70s or early 80s, I think. Every bit as corny and smarmy as the old series.

Astorian: I remember that Father Knows Best! For the worst reunion shows: Green Acres; Beverly Hillbilles (there were 2!);Get Smart (the 1st movie and the Fox TV revival) and the best was Return To Mayberry.

As an aside to Gary’s sig, had John Lennon lived he would have been 59 years old yesterday.
