It was one of the most watched show of its time, peddling nostalgia and great family themes. Fans were excited when news of an official boxed set DVD that was set to be released, and now there's even news of a Wonder Years reunion!
Set on October 20, at exactly 8:15 pm, the Wonder Years stars Fred Savage (Kevin Arnold), Danica McKellar (Winnie Cooper), and Josh Saviano (Paul Pfeiffer) will be teaming up again to chat about their famous TV show. The venue will be at 92Y, but if you can't make it to the big Wonder Years reunion, it will also be available on livestreaming.
Earlier in July this year, the cast also came together after 20 long years to be guest stars on Good Morning America, to promote the DVD of their show. The show, which aired from 1988 to 1933 in ABC, was an Emmy award winner that held very good memories for its entire cast.
"We were so little and so young," Savage relates. "It was such a big part of our life. It was half our life at that time, you know?"
Savage's character Kevin Arnold, was the focus of the show, and it revolved around his ravails as a teenager navigating his way through life in the 1960s. It was often bittersweet, with plenty of feel good vibes and lots of humor. Arnold and McKellar, who played his love interest, Winnie, practically grew up in front of fans' eyes in front of the camera. And one of the things that they experienced right in front of everybody, was being each other's first kiss. The Wonder Years reunion on Good Morning America discussed this particular rite of passage.
"The one good thing about getting your first kiss on camera is that you know for sure it's going to happen," McKellar shared.
"It was terrifying. It was terrifying," Savage revealed. "We were both really scared and nervous and didn't know what was gonna happen or if we were gonna do it right. All that stuff was very real/ And I think that all those things that were kind of happening on the show-it all grew out of something very real that was going on between us or in our lives."
