PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE

That's less than a year away! (I'm being an optometrist.) :mrgreen:
Hopefully we'll get more info soon. Like, it'll be a proper special with new cast stuff, rarely seen footage and not just a thrown together clip show.

Actually, it could be a 25th anniversary for FOX in general:
In-between, we were told about a 25th anniversary special for FOX, airing next year, and were treated to clips from the likes of Married… with Children, 21 Jump Street, Beverly Hills, 90210, Malcolm in the Middle and many more that allowed for a lot of nostalgia. But, as it should be, it was the new shows that were the main attraction…

That sounds great - maybe we get some new clips and/or some words from the actors.

They better not have gotten it mixed up with what Marriedaniac posted. It must be an anniversary show with new stuff!

o love daniac like a brother, well maybe a sister if i remember what i read right. but married was throwing water on our fire. the key wors wer "in between", but daniac didn't say between what. it was a fox preview of next season. of corse next seasons shows should be the main attraction for a preview of the upcoming season. what her/his "tween" quote was sandwiched in was:

FOX didn't match NBC's Upfront presentation earlier the same day when it came to mixing in performances with their presentation, but we did get a look at footage from Glee's upcoming New York-set (and produced) season finale, and Jane Lynch made another appearance as Sue Sylvester. The FOX presentation also ended with several contestants from American Idol performing, joined by So You Think You Can Dance contestants.

In-between, we were told about a 25th anniversary special for FOX, airing next year, and were treated to clips from the likes of Married… with Children, 21 Jump Street, Beverly Hills, 90210, Malcolm in the Middle and many more that allowed for a lot of nostalgia. But, as it should be, it was the new shows that were the main attraction…

There are few sure things in television, but even with high expectations, it's probably a safe bet that The X Factor will at least be a success – it's just a question of whether it can be an American Idol-sized hit, as it will likely be criticized if it comes short of that goal. We were shown a clip package made up of edited together footage from the recently-begun auditions for the show, along with clips from the original UK version that were certainly given a dramatic feel, with the bombastic music and tone – one would think this show would Change Everything.

i choose to believe "in between" was a seperate thing. the new shows were the main attraction for the nest season preview, they "why you should start watching. the aniversy special is a thank you to the viewers and shows how got them this far. the reunion special was announced in the middle of next seasons previrew, not a preview of the special. who even remembers 21 jumpstreet? it was jonny depps 1st show, but not as important to fox. the simpsons started off as a bit on the tracy ulman show which debuted along with married.....why not highlight that? if 21 jumpstreet is part of the reunion worth mentioning...the special is 100% retro and not new.

i think the preview show was more about who fox wants to be than who they are. they still ony have 2 hours of primetime programming vs the other networks 3 hours. fox still feels adopted rather than part of the tv family.

Yes, hence the link I posted. It's currently that time of year when all the networks are announcing their schedules for next season. As more info comes out we will know for sure. It's probably a FOX restrospect with (perhaps) a large emphasis on MWC and the shows that started in 1987.

Oh, and r2d2, daniac luvs you like a brother/sister/thing, too. :mrgreen:

Of course we all dream of a one hour special with the old cast returning for an encore performance.

Huh, well standards have changed. I always kind of make sure my kids aren't paying attention if I'm watching it or that they aren't there. I don't really need them to know what a rubber woman is yet.
