Peter Ostrum aka Charlie Bucket, Julie Dawn Cole aka Veruca Salt, Paris Themmen aka Mike Teevee, Denise Nickerson aka Violet Beauregarde, Michael Bollner aka Augustus Gloop were all reunited on The Today Show 40 years after the release of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory and they all look great! I love that Michael Bollner came in a costume like the one he wore in the movie. I feel like I found the Golden Ticket after seeing them all together like that! Seriously it made me as happy as when I suck on an Everlasting Gobstopper.
It would’ve been perfect if Gene Wilder aka Willy Wonka was there to welcome his kids to the studio, but I guess he wasn’t able to be there.
I also wish they had a different anchor doing the interview because she was awful.

Butch Patrick was reunited with his TV cousin Pat Priest at the Chiller Theater Expo and the surviving Munsters look great. Eddie and Marilyn look as close as they did when they starred in the quirky show back in 1964. Can you believe it has been over 45 years since we got to the know the 57 year old Werewolf and 74 year old “ugly duckling of the family” because they both look fabulous! Maybe they got something from their Grandpa’s lab that is helping them to look so wonderful.

Brad Garrett and his TV brother Ray Romano got together for lunch yesterday and the Everybody Loves Raymond stars showed they still have brotherly love for each other! Seriously don’t they look as close now as they did when they were playing brothers on the hit comedy that debuted almost 15 years ago. Can you believe it has been that long because they both still look great!
BTW co-creator Phil Rosenthal’s new movie Exporting Raymond about his journey of trying to make the show in Russia is in theaters today!

The cast of Everybody Loves Raymond got together to support the co-creator at the premiere of his new documentary Exporting Raymond. In it Phil Rosenthal tells the story of adapting the hit sitcom in Russia and them not getting his sense of humor. I find that hard to believe because I could see a lot of families having mother like Marie!
Now back to America, isn’t great to see Monica Rosenthal, Patricia Heaton, Ray Romano, Brad Garrett and Doris Roberts all look as close as they did when got to know them on the show almost 15 years ago,

TV Land said Welcome Back Kotter to Gabe Kaplan and the Sweathogs at their awards show and they look like they were ready for the prom again! Robert Hegyes, Ellen Travolta, Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs, Marcia Strassman, Gabe Kaplan and John Travolta aka Epstein, Mrs Horshack, Freddie “Boom Boom” Washington, Julie, Mr Kotter and Vinnie Barbarino.
Can you believe it has been 35 years go that we got to know all of them because the look just as good as they did, and for some of them they look even better.
Hey TV Land, can you add Welcome Back Kotter to your line up because I am missing that show!
BTW Ron Palillo aka Arnold Horshack was suppose to be there, but reports say he wasn’t feeling well.
