FOX Reunites The Bundys, Mulder & Scully, & More For 25th Anniversary

FOX is getting the gang back together for their 25th Anniversary Special in April.

One could argue that FOX premiered in 1986 with Joan Rivers’ Late Show, but for the sake of the anniversary, they’re celebrating the date of their primetime premiere, which happened on April 5, 1987.

Nice to see some big names included but here’s the big question: Will we see the casts of Duet, Boys Will Be Boys, Women In Prison, Totally Hidden Video, Open House or other early FOX shows? Johnny Depp, are you going to be there? Guess we’ll find out on April 22. Here’s the official press release.
