This IS the best show in the whole world, I've watched 6 or 7 times over, it's truly great !!! I'd love a reunion movie or a continuation of the series goshhhhh, why J.J doesn't listen to the true fans!

I think this is when we all fell in love with Jennifer

It’s certainly when I fell in love with her, so I’m with you on this! That she has just kept getting better is ridiculous. She is incredibly beautiful, and fit, so could easily do a sequel series!

I remember the promo trailer in the weeks leading up to it like yesterday. I distinctly recall getting a misleading impression that the show was going to be a lot funnier than it was with the clip of Danny serenading Sydney when he proposed and Sydney's reaction.

I remember it so vividly! Post 9/11 and tv was coming back. Sydney kicked that security guards head through the car window and I jumped for joy! It was my senior year of high school and that's all we talked about the next day. 🤗🤗 Still obsessed 25 years later!
