Netflix has announced plans to produce reunion episodes and seasons of popular 90’s and early 2000’s shows such as “Full House”, “Gilmore Girls” and “That 70’s Show.” The original series were so successful that they are hoping the reunions will have the same response to audiences.

As the promotions are beginning to air, fans are eager to see how the revival seasons and episodes of their favorite childhood shows will be.

“Full House”

The original hit show is now coming out with a 13 episode reunion season called “Fuller House,” which takes viewers on a tour of the family years after the ending of the original show. The first episode aired in 1987 and soon after became a success. 191 episodes later the last episode aired with over 13 million viewers.

“Fuller House” is about the children from “Full House,” DJ, Kimmy and Stephanie and their lives with children of their own in San Francisco.

The season starts off with Kimmy and Stephanie lending a helping-hand to the newly widowed DJ. “Fuller House” is set to air in early 2016 as fans eagerly await its release.

“I cannot wait for the reunion season. I am excited to see what the producers have come up with. I hope that it just as great as the original series,” senior Devon Forte said.

“Gilmore Girls”

The dramedy first premiered in 2000 and aired until 2007.  The show follows the life of a single mother and her daughter living in Stars Hollow, Conn.

Netflix is producing four 90 minute episodes, one for each of the four seasons: fall, winter, spring, summer. After almost a decade off the air, the show’s reunion is set to catch up with each of the characters in their present day lives.

“I have never been so excited to see the return of a TV show,” senior Isabelle Caine said. “I have watched every season of ‘Gilmore Girls’ and I cannot wait to see where the characters are now. I hope that it is as good as the original series was.”

“That 70’s Show”

The reunion of That 70’s Show called “The Hatch” will star Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis and Danny Masterson.

The producers state that for now it is going to be a seven episode miniseries, and if the ratings are good they may continue with the show. Kutcher’s character, Kelso, is returning home after being in Colorado for several years and the miniseries will tell the stories of the original characters’ later lives. Former viewers are showing great excitement over the potential this news show has.

“I grew up watching ‘That 70’s Show’ show with my family,” senior Tess Dyer said. “It was our favorite show and I cannot wait to see where all the characters have ended up. I am also so excited to see Kunis and Kutcher acting together again.”
