Reboots and spin-offs are not a novelty in the television landscape, but this year gave us the rise of another TV format—reunion specials. Cast members of our favorite shows are reuniting to celebrate their legacy, and here are some of the best revivals everyone’s buzzing about.

Friends

Fans of Friends spent almost two decades waiting for the old gang to hit up Central Perk again, and that moment finally came. HBO Max’s reunion special sees the cast of the original show reuniting to relieve good old days alongside an impressive ensemble of A-list guest stars.

iCarly

Nickelodeon gave us one of its defining 2000s show with iCarly, which centers on a group of friends running a popular web show. Miranda Cosgrove, Jerry Trainor, and Nathan Kress are set to return to their respective roles in the upcoming revival, and we can’t wait to see if they’ll be able to bring the old magic back.

Rugrats

Revivals of Nickelodeon’s classics will be all the rage this year, and the new version of Rugrats on Paramount+ falls under that umbrella. This animated series features the same lineup of characters, and many of the original voice actors even returned for their roles.

HBO Max had a pretty rocky start when it launched last year, but people are finally ready to give it a chance. This streaming service is experiencing a huge boom thanks to the amazing shows it recently introduced to the world and new ones that it has on the way.

Mare of Easttown

This crime drama series starring Kate Winslet centers on a small-town detective trying to solve the disappearance of a young woman in her hometown. It’s technically an HBO show, but it brought countless new subscribers to HBO Max—and many even companied on Twitter when the streaming service crashed just in time for the season finale.

Friends: The Reunion

This reunion special was supposed to premiere on HBO Max when it launched, but it took a year longer to bring it to life. It will give you nostalgia overload if you’re a huge fan of the original series since it shows its cast and creators, and a slate of A-list guest stars coming back to discuss its legacy.

Gossip Girl

Reboots and revivals are pretty much the backbones of HBO Max’s future programming. One of the most anticipated shows comes in the form of the Gossip Girl reboot, which focuses on a set of brand-new Gen-Z characters, with Kristen Bell coming back to spill the tea as the voice of Gossip Girl.

After over a year of anticipation, Friends: The Reunion is finally coming to HBO Max on May 27th. The first trailer for this highly-anticipated reunion special is finally here, and here’s what we’ve learned about this nostalgic project after watching it.

Stage 24

The trailer sees the six original cast members—Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer—returning to the iconic Stage 24. Throughout the trailer, they take us through several iconic locations from the series, including Monica’s apartment, Central Perk, and the fountain from the opening theme.

Walking Down Memory Lane

Friends: The Reunion is an unscripted special, but that’s not stopping it from packing an emotional punch. Judging by the trailer, it will feature a table read of “The One Where Everybody Finds Out”, a round of Friends trivia, an interview with James Corden, and a lot of nostalgic conversations between the cast members.

Guest Stars

Corden is one of the stars to make a cameo in the trailer, along with Cara Delevingne and Tom Selleck, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. David Beckham, Justin Bieber, BTS, Cindy Crawford, Lady Gaga, Elliott Gould, Larry Hankin, Kit Harington, Mindy Kaling, Thomas Lennon, Christina Pickles, James Michael Tyler, Maggie Wheeler, Reese Witherspoon, and Malala Yousafzai are also set to make a cameo.

It’s official—Friends is returning for a much-awaited reunion on the new streaming platform HBO Max.

Jennifer Aniston (Rachel Green) confirmed the news on Friday on her Instagram account with a cast photo saying, “It’s happening…”

Her costars Courtney Cox (Monica), Matthew Perry (Chandler), David Schwimmer (Ross), Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe), and Matt LeBlanc (Joey) announced the news in the same way.

It didn’t take long for fans and fellow celebrities to go into a frenzy and comment with questions and emojis. Perhaps the most noteworthy was Kate Hudson’s response, “I feel like the whole world just had a collective orgasm,” with which Zoey Deutch responded “truth.” 

Other amazing responses were Selena Gomez’s “NO ONE TALK TO ME. I’M NOT OKAY,” Antoni’s “NOTHING ELSE MATTERS ,” and Beanie Feldstein’s “I just screamed so loud on the street it was concerning.”

To check out more amazing celebrity and fan responses you’ll have to look at each of the Friends cast member’s posts.
