To say this pulls at the heart strings is an understatement... this show is always going to be a piece of American history... and the cast always loved.
This is so sweet. How weird must it have been for them to come back after so long and play these characters again. God bless them. I wish alot of other older shows would do this as well.
Just now seeing this, well.... a time gone by for them and all of us, what a total classic... Especially... our Dick Van Dyke Forever. Yes he's still here.... and may he be forever 💖💖💖💖
This whole show is a priceless gem. The concept was brilliant, . I was so glad Sally and Herman finally got together. Oncc I even "made up" an episode where Herman's mother went on a quiz show, won a trip on the "Love Boat" and met and married a Texas oil millionaire, So with her out of the way, Herman grew up and married Sally like he was supposed to, .It's to bad in real life people have to get old and die. But this kind of show makes remembrances very sweet and precious.
This was shot 10 years ago in 2004 and thankfully all 6 of the original cast members featured here are still with us. 6 out of 9 for a show over 50 years old is a good percentage.
I see this comment continues to get upvoted,just wanted to update it by noting that unfortunately Ann Morgan Guilbert,who played Millie Helper,passed away this year leaving only 5 out of the original 9(still a good percentage I think).
Fordham1969 And now Mary is gone. But yep: this was So Rare that the majority was alive 5 decades later. I don't know if any other has done that. R.I.P to the lost ones.
Lots of laughters and having an optimistic outlook definitely help in the longevity department, especially at a time when everybody was a heavy drinker/smoker. Van Dyke, Carl Reiner, and Rose Marie are in their 90s, but still with us and active on Twitter.
Dick's brother Jerry Van Dyke also passed earlier this year. The original "Pickles" (Buddy's wife) is still with us. Her name is Barbara Perry and she's 95. She got replaced really early tho.
I have to admit it's really cool seeing Dick Van Dyke and Merry Tyler Moore reprise their roles, as characters i've grown to love. They do a pretty good job too if part one is any indication. Not too crazy about how CBS produces shows these days however. Fake audience "laugh tracks," and Soap Opera Lighting is just depressing in my opinion.
This is SO sad. I could seriously cry right now. If there was ever a group of people who should live for ever & not age physically/ mentally... IT's the cast of the Dick Van Dyke Show. I wish Morey & Richard were still alive. Seriously tho, I know its selfish, but I wish all my favorite stars & actors lived for ever to bring the same kind of happiness and laughter to generations to come. I'm only 18, & I'm already sad to see Dick & Mary at such an old age. Mary doesn't even sound like herself.
I couldn't agree with you more. Dick Van Dyke is amazing and still with us. I was in high school when Mary's show was on. Love her and I hate that she's not here any more. I'm thankful they are all preserved on video for us to enjoy them. 💖
I never saw this. It is so cool! The Dick Van Dyke Show was so wonderful - so it's fun to see this revisit. Especially now, yet some years later. T-A-L-E-N-T!
My father had a record album of Morey Amsterdam's, a comedy album of course, back in 1965. One of the tracks was titled "Yuc a Puc". I asked my father why that was funny, and what it meant. I was only 14 and he wasn't about to tell me what it meant. He just said "nothin".. so I forgot about it. I am now old enough to know what it meant lol.. WTF.. and now I can understand why my father said "nothin".. 😂😂
What a nice surprise for those who for some reason skipped it initially. (Some were a little ticked after VanDyke dumped his wife of several decades for the Lee Marvin ex, Michelle Triola.) But life goes on, and this production is better than most reunion specials. One of the most talented casts on tv.
Such fond memories. My grandmother and I sat everynight watching these great shows, laughing and enjoying these characters. And now I get to introduce my kids to them too. It's lovely to have somewhere to turn these days where political agendas and offensive nonsense don't have to be a part of it.
He was adorable as Richie. I saw him recently on a RUclips interview where he talked about the competitive nature of the acting business. It was hard to get work. He eventually went behind the scenes. He and his wife actually do live in Portland, Oregon.
I actually was really entertained by this when it aired. Much better than a typical reunion show (which is what Reiner didn't really want to do). For a final episode, it's a hoot.
That's what I always liked about Carl Reiner. Never repeated an idea twice and decided to do something original should it come to pass. Was also nice that for once they had a reunion where Alan Brady WASN'T deceased😂
Laura's got some 'splaining to do after leaving Rob for all those years, changing her name to Mary Richards, and working for Lou Grant at a TV station in the midwest.
That's exactly why TV execs didn't want the Mary Richards character to be divorced. They were afraid viewers would think she had left Rob Petrie. I'm sure there were strange people out there who just might have thought that 🤪
Thanks so much for posting this. I remember watching it when it aired plus, of course, I was and am a huge fan of the old series. The revisit was wonderfully funny. I did notice that Ray Romano didn't mention Mel Cooley (Richard Deacon) in the beginning intro. So sad to see the list of all the wonderful greats who are now gone. I still love seeing all of them on the old shows (DVD show and the Danny Thomas show). Wonderful stuff. Gracias!
Nevertheless All of us warmly remember gathering with our family in front of the Television set For a half hour of wholesome laughs.Looking back at fond memories of a time that is long gone,I want to thank All of the cast and those who are no longer here for the hours of entertainment they brought to our living rooms. R.I.P.
Millie (Ann Morgan Guilbert) aka "Grandma Yetta" is wonderfully funny. It was a nice touch bringing Stacy (JVD) in as her new boyfriend. Just terrific.
This is fun! The on-screen and writing talent in this show was stellar and has few equals. But there is someone else we need to thank for the enjoyment we can still get from these almost 60 year old shows, and that is whoever has been curating them. Far too many master copies of early TV shows were either discarded, erased or left to rot in archive basements. Clearly someone has looked after the master copies of these shows during the years when there was far less interest in them. That care means that now, in the digital era, they still look very crisp and good and we can enjoy them looking as good or better than when we originally saw them. We can't know who to thank for that, but thank you anyway!
@@atheistexchristian Rowan Atkinson is so much more than "Mr Bean" but Yanks never bother to look any further than the "funny looking guy fall down" level of comedy so you'd never comprehend the brilliance of Black Adder, Not The Nine O'Clock News or The Thin Blue Line.
I always felt that this reunion was kind of thrown together. The whole idea for a reunion only came up on The TV Land awards just a couple of months earlier. RIP Mary, Carl, Morey and Rose Marie.
You forgot applause. It's all over-the-top fake, as if everyone involved knew this show was a steaming pile. I say this as a devoted fan of Van Dyke, Moore, and in particular, Baby Rose Marie.
This was an excellent "update" to the original storyline. When you grow up with some of these shows you think about what the characters might be doing as they approach late middle age. Somehow I just don't think of Laura Petrie ever being a grandmother, though Rob I imagine would have been a great grandfather. Would Sally have ever gotten married? Maybe to Stacie Petrie? Statistically, at least 1 of the couples on the show would have divorced and remarried...probably Alan Brady. Probably 1 of the few shows that I would have carried about the characters AND the actors.
Peter Pan Demic The fact that the state of WA touches the Pacific Ocean doesn’t mean Spokane is on the left coast, brainchild. (Clue: Look up the Cascade Range.) Now go play in traffic.
@Peter Pan Demic Let me draw you a picture, brainchild: goo.gl/maps/YygEPpScw5WjiqBt9 17 miles to Idaho. 320 miles to the Pacific. Spokane is no more "left coast" than is Reno, NV. Now ... bye.
Trevor Cutler I agree, he should have had applause. The fake applause ruined the show they should have had a live audience like they did on the original
I loved this show. Such fantastic memories. MTM was such an incredible natural beauty, it's a shame she decided to have "work" done. Her eyes look so unusual now, much like others who have had too much plastic surgery done. She didn't need to do that. Rest in peace to her though. Also, to the rest of that wonderful cast who have passed on.
Very nostalgic. Nice to see them together again. RIP Mary Tyler Moore, Rose Marie, Richard Deacon, Carl Reiner, Jerry Van Dyke.
Morey Amsterdam

As Soon as i saw Mary Tyler Moore..I smiled from ear to ear. She was So Wonderful!
Love her so much 😊

I hope you remember making this comment, because your wish came true for better or worse
@@Daftless I don’t remember making this comment! Thank you for the reminder!!

I never saw this modern day show of the classic before. It's awesome.

It's lovely to have somewhere to turn these days where political agendas and offensive nonsense don't have to be a part of it.
RIP Mary. You will always be so awesome.
Larry Matthews did awesome for a former child actor who hasn’t acted in nearly 30 years.
He was adorable as Richie. I saw him recently on a RUclips interview where he talked about the competitive nature of the acting business. It was hard to get work. He eventually went behind the scenes. He and his wife actually do live in Portland, Oregon.

When this special first aired, I was glad to see Bill Idelson turn up as Herman Glimsher after all those years.
R.I.P. Mary Tyler Moore.
She gone
Sad. They don’t sound the same at all.
...AND Jerry Van Dyke.
& Rose Marie & Morey Amsterdam.
And now Carl Reiner
2023 am still watching
God bless all who created and participated in creating this wonderful series. Back in the day when wholesome entertainment was valued.
Cant believe I dont' remember this... My FAV show of all time.
It's so great to see Laura dancing. It's amazing after she got her toe caught in the tub spout 🤣😅😄😎
Those girls in her ballet class are 40 now.
"I was playing with the drip."
Oh MARY! the facelift, the kind that affects how she sounds.
I love how DVD turned on his classic Rob Petrie voice when he answered the phone!
This was better than how CBS imagined them in the 1979 reunion for the segment set 50 years in the Petrie future.

Oh. My. Goodness. I didn't even know this existed! THANK YOU!!
I was in tears from start to finish...Ive been a fan for years....these are good people.
I remember watching this and just staring at Mary Tyler Moore in awe. I asked my mom what happened and she said she had too much plastic surgery.
How mean. She was almost 70 here and looked fantastic. Let's see you at 70!
Kat G I think she’s right. Graceful 70 beats 70-trying-to-be-50 any day of the week. The once-beautiful MTM came out looking like The Joker ... 😢
One of my favorite shows. I wish Mary didn't do so much work on her face, though. It detracted from her beauty, I feel.
Millie (Ann Morgan Guilbert) aka "Grandma Yetta" is wonderfully funny. It was a nice touch bringing Stacy (JVD) in as her new boyfriend. Just terrific.
Loved Millie ❤
They reflected the early 60's , the Kennedy's so well. It was such a simpler time. Loved the show and everyone on it. Great show ! Fond memories. 💙
This is fun!

Time machine please..I wanna go back!
Ray Ramano is a perfect host for this wonderful tribute.
They were still so funny and had such great chemistry together!
I sooooooooo Lovvvvvvvve these characters and miss those actors/Actresses that have since passed that created those wonderful people 😢
I love this show. I was not born until the 80s, but I used to love watching it with my mom on Nick at Night
They have lived a happy and successful life. Honestly,
I’ve read that this got pretty poor reviews, and Dick Van Dyke thought it was only okay, but I think this reunion is adorable! 💕
Mary Tyler Moore was almost 70 years old when this was made. WOW! WHAT A BODY THAT OLD LADY HAS!!!! (sorry for the shouting)
But too bad she paid some butcher to do that to her face ...
Oh I loved and still love that show. They were like family. I think Dick is probably the only one still living.
Dick is just as much a legend as Rowan Atkinson will be. I love these old-fashioned comedy geniuses!
+Joel Gawne who is that ?.
+Art Trombley Mr Bean , a British comedian
@@atheistexchristian Rowan Atkinson is so much more than "Mr Bean" but Yanks never bother to look any further than the "funny looking guy fall down" level of comedy so you'd never comprehend the brilliance of Black Adder, Not The Nine O'Clock News or The Thin Blue Line.
It was neat to see everyone. I wish MTM hadn't ruined her face like she did with PS. May she RIP.
Agreed. She was naturally beautiful. She is barely recognizable.
@@marshallmom1962 yeah she was beautiful
Berry Harbour Naw, it’s the angle of her mouth ... 😢
The snobby comments make me laugh. Carl Reiner wrote this. How much closer to the origin of the show could you get without using a Ouija board?
LOVE THIS THANK YOU
The fact we never got to see Buddy in the reunion makes me sad
Doesn't Rob and LAura's loft look like Rhoda's apartment when she was married to Joe?
Did anybody else notice how much Dick sounds like his brother Jerry?
Dick looks so much and acts so much like his brother Jerry right here.
Dick van dyke is still alive in kicking at age 97 wow hes in pretty good shape
What in hell does Ray Romano have to do with the Dick van dyke show
I never knew about this. Glad I found it! ❣️
Sad to say, MTM had face lift syndrome, she doesn’t look like Mary anymore by this time.
I can never understand Stars there never is one good face lift but they still continue to have them
Totally looked like Caesar Romero’s Joker ... 🙁
The show "Coach" would never have lasted without Jerry Van Dyke playing "Luther".
I always felt that this reunion was kind of thrown together. The whole idea for a reunion only came up on The TV Land awards just a couple of months earlier. RIP Mary, Carl, Morey and Rose Marie.
Why was there no applause for Larry Matthews (Richie)? He was as much a part of the show as the others.
Unlike the original show, this reunion used a laugh track. Seems someone didn't think he needed applause.
He was no Ronnie "Howard" or Billy Mumy.
Richie is going bald like his dad, Alan Brady! 😂
Saw this on TV Land when it vame out. Always wanted to see it again.
Why did they blow off Mel Cooley in the intro? Richard Deacon played the roll masterfully.
Richard Deacon was my favorite. That Deacon stare!
How am I just now seeing this? It's like a reboot before there were reboots.
I was born in 61 and my dad got tired of me always watching bewitched so he bought me my own tv. Pretty unheard of in the sixties.
a classic tv show with agreat cast and rob riner writting
The good old times...
A time when we had real entertainers!
I blippin'' love this so much.
Mary is so cute! :)
She was gorgeous
I'm the guy that had a secret crush on her back in the 70's
Amazing! Thank you so much for posting!
Wow! MTM can still move. ❤️❤️❤️
Oh dear, you really can't go back again.
The worst thing about this is the canned laughter and cheers. Someone REALLY ramped them up to the nth degree :(
You forgot applause. It's all over-the-top fake, as if everyone involved knew this show was a steaming pile. I say this as a devoted fan of Van Dyke, Moore, and in particular, Baby Rose Marie.
R.I.P. Rose Marie
Love Mary Tyler Moore... w/o benefit of cosmetic surgery. R.I.P.
I never saw this on tv...a reunion show? I usually catch those. This is funny. I watched the show every week when new.
This was an excellent "update" to the original storyline. When you grow up with some of these shows you think about what the characters might be doing as they approach late middle age.

I love this thanks for posting bringing back all the memories ❤️📺 Rob and Laura forever R.I.P Mary 💙
Mary Tyler Moore was a dancer before she became a comedian.
MTM sure messed her face up with all the surgeries she had, I love the show but she was not my favorite on there..
I had a problem with her high-pitched whiny voice and "Rob, DARLING!" Young marrieds didn't talk that way! Rob was so patronizing.
thanks I had not ssee this before
We had 6 TVS THANK YOU GRANDFATHER
I luved this show. They only show the reruns now at 11:00 and 12:00 PM!
I want this on dvd
Richie didn't get any applause at all in his clip or when he appeared. Poor Richie. You fans should be ashamed.
Because they mentioned him by name in the Romano intro then he said who he was when he appeared briefly.
+Trevor Cutler It's fake applause. All of the applause and laughing are tracks. There is no audience.
+Jim Feesl Thats whats missing ! I knew that there was something that was different from the old show and thats it ! thanks
Jim Feesl if it's fake applause then the producers hate him, because it is silent there.
Trevor Cutler I agree, he should have had applause. The fake applause ruined the show they should have had a live audience like they did on the original
this was over ten years ago and everyone here is still alive....do i smell another reunion???
+Lucy G That would be great, but sadly Mary Tyler Moore's health has not been good.
+UsfanlovesMinho and Rose Marie is very old , 93 and in a wheel chair
RIP Mary.
This is crazy! I love it!
I LOVE these guys....
I loved this show. Such fantastic memories. MTM was such an incredible natural beauty, it's a shame she decided to have "work" done.

Awww he still has the moves💖💖💖😍😍😍
Have you seen his wife?? Hommina hommina ... !!

Two seconds after appearing and Dick's into his first visual gag.

has turned into his brother
Not during the intro, but, Rob mentions seeing Alan at Mel Cooley's funeral.
