I don't know if there's any way to see it now. It was I'd say middling as sitcom reunions go. Oliver and Lisa go back to New York...Lisa starts doing a lot of painting...there are also scenes with Eb on the farm.

It was okay. Most reunions are not a good idea I think. The only one I remember enjoying was The Odd Couple one, but I think that was mainly done so Jack Klugman could start working again after his throat surgery. At least that was my impression. I remember Tony Randall doing commercials with Jack around that time as well.

IMO a very bad movie that never should have been made.

I agree, most reunion movies have not worked. The only "remake" movies that have worked well were "Bewitched" and "Maverick"

i never saw it, but anything i ever read about it stated it wasn't good.

Scoobiedoo30 · 03-11-2007, 01:11 AM

The last time it was seen on TV was December of 2006

TVJunkie101 · 03-11-2007, 08:24 AM

It was aired on my local UPN a few years back. I taped it. I have it somewhere. It wasn't that good.

One of the reunion movies I want to see is Return of the Beverly Hillbillies, only because I heard it was really bad.

treky · 03-13-2007, 04:09 PM

yes; you're right. "Return of THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES" was HORRIBLE!!!And so was "Return to GREEN ACRES"

Scoobiedoo30 · 03-14-2007, 12:51 AM

I wish my Local station would play the movie again

Return to Green Acres was not horrible. I think the first response describing it as "middling" is very fair and accurate.

It was not even in the same plane of existance of badness as Return of The Beverly Hillbillies.

I didn't think it was that bad, it was good to see the gang together again. I have it on dvd, which I bought on iOffer.com.

Scoobiedoo30 · 06-02-2007, 12:12 PM

I like The Return to Green Acres

Evagabor4ever · 10-18-2007, 09:05 PM

I ppersonally liked it. All though the reviews I've read have'nt been too good. It was nice to see all of the cast back together again.

treky · 10-25-2007, 04:34 PM

well, I still say it was HORRIBLE! Same with RETURN OF THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES.

The only good reunion movies that I've seen were RETURN TO MAYBERRY, THE ODD COUPLE-TOGETHER AGAIN, and THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW REVISITED

comedyfreak · 11-23-2007, 06:37 AM

I also liked all the Gilligan's Island reunion movies, although the third one was the weakest.
