## “Everybody Loves Raymond” Cast Hints at Future Reunions, Forego Reboot or Spinoff Plans
The cast of “Everybody Loves Raymond” convened for a 30th-anniversary reunion special, sparking fan speculation about a potential reboot or spinoff. However, participants indicate further reunions are more likely than extending the beloved sitcom’s universe with new episodes or derivative series. The special, airing november 24th on CBS and Paramount+, marks the first gathering of the principal cast in nearly three decades.
While a full-fledged return to the series isn’t currently in the cards, the ease and enjoyment the cast derives from these gatherings suggest future specials are a distinct possibility. The decision to prioritize reunions over a reboot or spinoff reflects a desire to honor the original series’ legacy and maintain the positive dynamic among the actors, rather than risk diluting the show’s established appeal.This approach is increasingly common as legacy television properties navigate the current entertainment landscape.
Hosted by Ray Romano and Phil Rosenthal, the reunion special features Brad Garrett, Patricia Heaton, Monica Horan, Madylin Sweeten, and Sullivan Sweeten. The special also includes a tribute to the late Peter Boyle and the Sawyer and Robert Sweeten.
“In 5-10 years, if we’re all still around, sure, why not revisit some of the things,” Rosenthal stated, indicating openness to future reunions. “I’m fine if people wont to see that. It’s very easy for us to do because we love doing it.We love being together.”
The “Everybody Loves raymond: 30th Anniversary Reunion” airs from 8 to 9:30 p.m.on CBS and is available for streaming on paramount+. additional photos from the reunion can be viewed here.
