CBS Does 'Dallas' Reunion
(Wednesday, May 19 11:32 AM)


LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - Dipping deeper into its vaults, CBS has come up with two more reunion specials for next season.
The cast of "Dallas" will reunite at the show's Southfork Ranch to reminisce about the seminal prime-time soap in one, while the stars of "One Day at a Time" will also look back at their time on the network.

Reunion specials have been reliable ratings magnets for CBS in recent years. A "Carol Burnett Show" reunion in 2001 drew close to 30 million viewers, surprising just about everyone in the TV business and paving the way for a spate of similar shows.


Last week, two such shows -- another "Carol Burnett" special and "The Dick Van Dyke Show Revisited" -- delivered 13.6 million and 14.6 million viewers, respectively, to CBS. Both were in the Nielsen Top 20 for the week.
A "Dallas" reunion seems like a natural. The series, which ran from 1978-91, was the No. 1 or No. 2 show on television for five straight seasons in the '80s, and the 1980 episode in which viewers learned who shot villain J.R. Ewing (Larry Hagman) -- it was his mistress, Kristin Shepard (Mary Crosby) -- is one of the most-watched programs of all time.

The special will bring Hagman, Linda Gray, Patrick Duffy, Victoria Principal and other cast members back to Southfork, where some of the series was filmed. The cast will tour the ranch, eat some Texas barbecue and watch some of the home movies Hagman shot on set.

"One Day at a Time" doesn't immediately come to mind as a classic sitcom, but it was a Top 20 hit for pretty much its entire nine-season run. Stars Bonnie Franklin, Valerie Bertinelli, Mackenzie Phillips and Pat Harrington will come together to look back at the show, aided by a heavy dose of clips.

Um, well, I DO think that One Day at a Time was a classic sitcom, so there!

*begins to hum theme song to self*

Hmmm...the only reunion I can think of that might actually be good would be Cheers - just have them still coming to the bar after all these years.

I like the theme song, too. The 70s had the best theme songs.

I love Cheers, but let the dust settle on Frasier before they reunite, IMO.

Lara Flynn Boyle in the years before she wore grey business suits and pulled her hair back as tight as can be.
