Ok, here's a new one I hadn't heard about until it showed up on my TiVo.

The Link to more info

This premiers on Sunday, January 5, 2003 @ 9/8C on The WB

The info:
Oak Park River Forest Class of 1992


The popular girl. The jock. The nerd. The class clown. The bully. The misfit. When 17 former classmates from the Oak Park/River Forest, Illinois Class of 1992 are reunited for a two-week stay on the exotic island of Maui, each not knowing who else was invited, it quickly becomes apparent that everyone still has something to prove.

Rekindling rivalries and romances, each episode will test who these people have become and what their classmates think of them now, giving them one last chance at redemption or revenge.

* 17 Former Classmates * 14 Days on an Island * 11 Lingering Crushes * 6 Old Scores to Settle
* 5 Amazing Transformations * 3 New Loves * 2 Knock-outs * 1 Marriage Proposal

Created by executive producer Mike Fleiss ("The Bachelor"), High School Reunion is produced by Next Entertainment in association with Telepictures Productions.

That kinda sounds interesting to me. I have quite often wondered about all of us here at the TVHC and which category we would be in. In high school I just blended in...always the sweet, quiet girl. I got along with everybody, the cool kids, nerds, popular, jocks, and geeks. I wanted everyone to like me. I am still very much like that now.

My 10 yr reunion was a blast and I could see some of those things happening if we had of all stayed together for 14 days! I just went to my 20 yr reunion and it wasn't nearly as fun, I think cuz most of us are married with kids now, at the 10 yr we were all under 30 and a lot of us still wild and single!!
I would have to tape this show cuz it will be on opposite Alias(which is the best show on tv!)

I think I'll watch.. I didn't go to my 10 year reunion, but I gather the story there was that two of the students (both quite popular and good student types) got together there and by the 10 year reunion were married with baby :) and several advanced degrees. I really haven't identified too much with my high school self.

Me neither, Seamonkey... I can't think of anyone from high school I would want to see.

Funny, before she passed away, my mom was helping to plan her 50th reunion..she was sooooo excited about it. After my dad was gone and I was grown, she moved back to the town she went to school in and she picked right up where she left off.

It looks interesting, but it's running against a brand-spanking-new Alias! Too bad Santa didn't have a TiVo for me...

That's what I was thinking Jhezzie(hope to see you in the ALias thread tomarrow!)

Hey.. where's the comments?? I wanted to see if it was worth my time tuning in...Shoot.

I was going to watch and tape Alias in case I missed something.. Maybe I'll watch this show instead. I'd hate to miss the first one and then find out I really missed something good from you guys..LOL

I graduated 43 years ago, and I wish someone would give our class a chance for this kind of reunion! We have had several reuions, and they have all been wonderful. Those of us still around here get together several times a year - the annual chili supper at my house is the end of this month. We will probably have about 25 here -

Any thoughts?

I thought it was okay. A little on the boring side, maybe.

Nicole (Tall Girl) is crazy. I'm not sure what's worse - thinking a guy who barely knows her would propose in a week and a half, or thinking that Dan (The Player) is that appealing to begin with. Maybe he was better looking in high school (based on the picture, I think he was), but his personality...blech.

I like Ben (The Nerd). I'm sort of torn on Natasha (Popular Girl). She seemed nice enough on the date with Ben, but pursuing Dan? What *is* it about that guy?

Don't really have much of an opinion on the other classmates. Oh, except for The Bully. He's still a jerk.

It was alot boring to me. I found my mind drifting and not really paying attention. :(

I got really caught up in this one. Muse I think both the joker and the bully are jerks. I agree there is something likable about Ben the nerd.

Why would a 28 think that someone would propose to her in 14 days?? I didn't get that one. I didn't like how the player kissed her on the date(Tall girl, can't remember her name) and then in the car told her quite brutally not that it is still early in the reunion" What a bleeping-BLEEP.

Lightweight and boring..

If you missed it, it repeats Thursday.

Car.. if it didn't put you to sleep tonight, it will when you see it, I'm guessing.

i watched ten minutes and decided that it wasn't for me. But i'll probably tape the repeat show and watch it at another time. Oz was playing in the same time slot.

For some reason I liked it. I think it's the classic detox from all the regular reality shows on hiatus right now so I'm allowing this one :)

Anyway, my thoughts...

How sad is the tall girl at 28 still carrying a torch for the has been player? She looked sad but he looked like classic dirt. It was pathetic watching him ask her to stroke his ego by baiting her to tell him why she picked him for the date and how she fealt about him. Sure enough she gushes, he hoovers her mouth and then what does he do to her? Tells her that if someone gives HIM a card she should understand that he's gonna "have some fun" ... Notice he never mentioned the idea that someone could give HER a card! He's not even a good player! That man is a JOKE! p.s... Just what the hell does she see in him physically? The dude is a dough boy! Can we all say... MEGGA LOSER!!!! I think I dislike him the most! This is a good thing. He will be fun to rag on!

Am I the only one that thought Ben is probably too damn good for the former "popular" girl? The guy obviously has class and needs to let go of this crush! I like Ben! Now as for her.. Does that girl act like she is 19? Perhaps her and the player are made for each other after all. She's oblivious and the player is dilusional.

This was really the only stuff they gave to us this week with the subtle hint of a possible confrontation between the class bully and the dude that keeps glaring at him. Now I would love to hear at least one of them say to the class clown that he's just not funny.

Oh well, I'll give it another shot. Looks interesting.

I peeked in during commercials in Alias. I saw two people lurking in a pool. Not talking. Then the girl asked the guy out.
When I came back, she was all worked up about something and he was trying to nicely tell her to back off, that they were going to be there for 2 weeks, it was fun, there will be fun with other people, blah, blah, blah...did she dig him in high school?

I watched a little and got bored. (Doesn't take much for that with me). Went back and watched
the Osbournes re-runs.

Jhezzie.. the girl was shown announcing to cameras over and over that she had stalked that guy in HS and planned to be engaged to him before leaving the reunion.

She was one of two people to get what the producers called a "hall pass" which allowed her to invite someone to a "romantic dinner and walk on the beach".. and when you saw them lurking in the pool, she was trying to get over worrying about rejection and finally did invite him..

The dinner looked to be ok, they walked on the beach (she was walking so awkwardly I thought she was wearing stiletto heels in the sand, but no.. she was barefoot).. they kissed, she told him she was totally into him and you heard him in the car..
