In 2016, the cast of Will & Grace had a get-together to film a short video about the 2016 presidential campaign, encouraging Americans to vote in the elections. The video received so much attention that the old producers of the show thought there was enough to make a revival of the show. NBC brought the show back in 2017, and it ran for three seasons until 2020.
Two years ago, the Friends cast made a reunion special as an extra to accompany the 236 episodes of the original series which were released along with the launch of HBO Max in 2021. Although it didn't spark any interest in reviving the series, the special, along with the ten seasons of Friends, did contribute to drive subscriptions to HBO Max.
Now, the surviving cast of M*A*S*H, will have their own two-hour reunion special set to air on New Year's Day. After over 40 years since the last episode aired, this reunion special will feature interviews from the producers and cast members, never-before-seen footage, behind-the-scenes photos, and tributes to all the cast and crew who have since passed.
