Subject: celebrity hosted retrospectives of your favorite shows
Written By: snozberries on 08/02/08 at 12:18 am
I'm not talking about your regular old flashback episodes almost every show has one of those. I'm talking about a retrospective of a series hosted by a celebrity who is, in no obvious way, connected to the show.
I suppose we can include reunions hosted by celebs like: Still Brady After All these Years hosted by Jenny McCarthy
Or the retrospective/bloopers done with the Friends cast in Central Perk hosted by (was it Bob Costas? or was it Conan O'Brien? Suddenly I'm drawing a blank . . .
anyway, what really got me thinking about this was All in the Family. This morning tvland showed an episode of All in the Family that was a retrospective hosted by the late great Henry Fonda.
Then I remember Lucille Ball hosting one for Three's Company
and George Burns did one for the TV show Fame.
any others come to mind?

^ That 'Friends' one was done by Conan O'Brien
Cheers had one (split into a 2-part episode) where TV interviewer John McLaughlin gathered current cast members and past cast members on a stage, and showed clips
Recently, Al Roker gathered interviewed the cast of Family Ties (including show creator Gary David Goldberg)
I can't think of any others off hand
