I stayed up late to watch when it originally aired. I was surprised they were able to get Tina Louise to participate as she always snubbed GI reunions. It was fortunate to be done while they were all still alive. Jim Backus died a year later, and Alan Hale Jr and Natalie Schaeffer died soon thereafter.

I actually heard about this from Russel Johnson's book where he mentions them all getting together for this show, so I already looked it up and watched it a long time ago. But thanks for posting it! Always nice to see them all together again.

I'd never seen that and it was amazing! THanks for sharing. So glad they got Tina Louise to also attend. All the original cast members together after all that time. Just great to see them. And of course they all still looked good. Dawn Wells aged so well.

Wow, they got everyone! I noticed when Russell and Dawn came out, Tina hung way back.

Over 20 years later they all looked good, particularly the girls, and even more particularly Dawn.

I had no idea Jim Backus and Natalie Schafer lived that long.
