Basically a bunch of people who graduated together in 1988 get together in a house for a reality TV series.

I'm going to watch it tonight, I don't know why. It's probably going to be stupid.

I am looking forward to all the 80's hair, though:

    I saw the preview that other day for this. I don't know...it just seems like more reality crap for our entertainment. I didn't really like any of the people either.

        I don't even want to think about High School Reunion. I didn't even go to my own.

          I thought the whole purpose of TV Land was to show reruns of classic TV.

          Oh well, I guess everybody has to have "original programming" these days. Here's a thought, TV Land: if you want to do "original programming," why not do "where are they now" segments on classic TV actors or do exposes like E does with True Hollywood Stories on some of these shows. I would be interested in watching that, not some stupid new reality show.

            yea viacom turns quality to crap again thanks viacom


            Viacom must think we're stupid,because IIRC this is the same show that was shown on The WB a couple of years ago.

              I thought TV Land was supposed to be for classic TV shows, not reality shows. Do we get enough of these reality shows on regular cable?

                I'm really looking forward to my ten year one in 2009. ONLY because I have lost so much weight since then and want to show it off LOL although most everyone I have seen has put on a few pounds so I shouldn't be worried to much about what I look like. My luck I will go there and hope to see people i haven't seen since graduation and they won't show up lol! My friend and I always feel like were Romy and Michelle lol.

                That being said they sure have promoted this damn reality show enough, i've been seing commercials about it for months. It does like kind of stupid. I may tune in just to see what the fuss is about but it seems like they picked the people that were popular and currently single to see what hookups and drama will happen. Gee now I have to pick between watching that crap and the real world road rules challenge crap that I watch just to tortue myself since I can't stand most of those people.

                  No kidding. When the commercial said it was "a new series!", I thought to myself, "No its not."

                      This show doesn't truly interest me. Maybe if they were the Class of 1978, I'd have more of one. lol Speaking of which, my mother's younger sister is the class of '78, so this should be her 30 year anniversary.

                      My ten year is 2009 as well. I might go, might not. I might be smaller than what I was in high school, but I'm still not where I want to be financially and professionally. It's embarrassing to be my age and still not able to afford my own place yet. Well, there is one person I'm going to my reunion for, and I really do hope he shows up. I'd been curious about him since I lost contact with him about seven years ago.

                        This must be one of the most annoying shows on the face of the earth ,but......

                        Its Viacom's fault not Tv Land.So just start throwing f-bombs at them.

                          Damned reality shows. I wish people would stop tuning into them so they'll stop churning them out!

                          Anyway, my ten-year reunion isn't until 2011. Which is only three years away. And what have I done with my life? Yeah. I don't think I'll go to my reunion-- assuming they organize one.

                            This show was just what I thought it was lol mostly single people thrown in to see who would date who. I love how they make it sound like the lesbian has a shocking secret and(which is that she wants to date a guy) and then goes to commercial, even though the previews that have been on for this show for months have already told us that secret.
                            *barf*

                            Yeah, my life has changed alot since highschool but I ended up with a husband and a baby before I could really get anywhere as far as college goes. I started taking classes in 2003 at the University and then after about a year I met my husband and started slacking off on the classes. Then I gave them up entirely. So the past few years I've just been a stay at home mom which is a great thing to be but nothing overly exciting to report at at a reunion. My two close friends from Highschool and I are going to attend together with her boyfriend and my husband and we figure if no one else will talk to us we have each other. I want to go more for curiousity than anything. I have not heard or seen anything about anyone planning the Reunion yet though. Which sucks because even though it is in 2009, if there are people all over the country they may need to start planning the trip and saving money for it if they live far away. I know that I do, since my highschool is in Maine and I am in Guam.

                              My BOCES class was barely acknowledged at the high school I went to, so they probably wouldn't even remember me to issue an invite.

                              I don't know if I would want to go, though. I haven't moved out of my old house yet, but that's because I have a lot of things to deal with regarding several issues I have. On the other hand, I am a somewhat well-known writer, having written for quite a few websites throughout the years, and I'm a pretty good interviewer as well.

                              I don't know what I would do.

                                Yeah...the show sucked. I will not be watching any more episodes. It's kinda funny in a sad way though how the one woman was married and divorced 4 times. Damn.

                                  Showing off your bodily success is a good reason to go to a reunion (and go you for losing weight!). I'm sure there were a few people who made fun of you in high school who will show up to the reunion with 50 pounds added to themselves.

                                      They should changed the network from "TV Land" to "CrappyLand". I mean, seriously, it it really worth it! I can see where Viacom is doing to these cable networks!
