An Eight is Enough Wedding intro

[salvidar75]

Sad seeing Lany o grady and knowing she s dead

[Jlady43]

willie's mullet was a mess

[EsmeraldaWyatt]

When I first saw Dianne Kay, I thought it was Reba! I never saw this reunion (loved the first one) and glad I didn't - wouldn't want to see anyone but Betty Buckley playing Abby!

[TVDude78]

ROTFL!!!.....What a cheesey opening. Man that was one skanky mullet Willie Aames was sporting. That cell phone probably only allowed 3 full minutes of call time before it drained the battery. It's nice that Adam Rich got out of jail and or rehab just in time this reunion. I grew up during this time and looking back, man were some of the styles bad.

[skynetvideo]

Would have been funny if Willie Aames got out of that car with Scott Baio... lol. No clue why they didn't keep the original theme though. Update the theme music for the movie if you have to. Don't change it to something totally different. That was a mistake.

[lemurianchick]

LOL- love Willie Ames' mullet: business in the front and party in the back. ROFL!

I Believe This Was "An Eight Is Enough Wedding" Video Open From October 22, 1989.

[somewhatlongdong]

The bowling pin sized cell phone is the best.

[TheJerseyBear732]

the Bradford girls were all lovely.

[disantmelissa]

Diane Kay's hair style and dark color look awful. Blonde suits her much better. Why did she have dark hair here? Is dark brown her natural color or did she just want to go dark? And Susan as a blonde? She looked awful too. She was so much prettier with red hair. At least if she was going to dye it blonde she shouldnt have dyed it platinum. None of the cast looked good in this movie. Connie probably looked the best of anybody and David without a doubt looked the best of the guys.

[mutinlupa]

what's worse? Tommy's mullet or Dick Van Patten's dyed perma combover?

[2nd2nun1]

Tommy's mullet. By far.

[lildoe72]

it was the end of the eighties what do you expect?

[chocolatbee]

that dudes mullet and cell phone were ridiculous!

[knicksfan89]

originally aired on the night of game 2 of the 1989 world series

[Aeolis7]

Gotta love Willie Aames' mullet!

[yman173]

The 2nd reunion wasnt nearly as good as the first, but how can anyone say Dianne Kay looked hideous?? It was the late 80s...she looked like anyone else did then. Willie Aames looked like a punk, though.

[somewhatlongdong]

while rewatching this intro, i'm reminded that there was no talent in the cast of this program

[Mitsy1212]

With Betty Buckley, it wasn't a real reunion show.

[2nicks]

My complaint about the reunion movies was the absent Betty Buckley (I know difficult to work with) but I still missed the original Abby...and the second movie had that awful theme music...Why not the original music? I didn't hate either movie but the first reunion movie was the better of the two! Plus they used the original music. I didn't like Mary Frann as Abby but I did like Sandy Faison as Abby:-)

[somewhatlongdong]

to whom are you registering your complaint?

[2nicks]

Just voicing my opinion that's all:-)

[DanIN72]

mary frann must have been too busy lol

[kfag101]

dianne kay looks hideous!

[ericelectric]

wow 89 was not kind to this cast! Willy's mullet and dianne kay? not great.

[fightermanizdebest]

can you tell me whay happened to betty buckley?

[sexymama1966]

probably went back to broadway.

[kbirdusa]

Betty Buckley (or her representatives) were difficult when negotiating to do the first reunion in 1987...so much so that the production company walked away from the table and hired Mary Frann. For this second reunion, they never even approached Buckley to do it.

[lemurianchick]

@fightermanizdebest : Um...maybe she didn't want to star in a cheezy reunion movie? I heard she was a Broadway star. LOL- gee, it's a real mystery she'd turn this down...

[83survivor]

1989....the year where multi-colors, BMWs, tie-dye tee-shirts, mullets, yuppies, the bumper stickers that read "Die Yuppie scum", huge-ass cell phones, etc. were all the rage back then. It was really a transitional year where materialism was in full force during the GWB Sr. era.

[trevor40]

This shows why the 80s blew goats!!!!!

[jupitr2]

That cell phone looks like something Tommy got from the Army-Navy store, the mullet does too!

LOL

[ElJefeNLA]

I hated that they didn't use the Season 4 version of theme or at least remixed it, but that was 18 years ago and i'm over it now.

[83survivor]

They showed this movie on TVLand not too long ago. I remember it back in 1989. Willie Aames' mullet was a laugh a minute. It was like a porn star's mullet from the late 80s. Around this time, he was still on the syndicated Charles In Charge show and I believe this is where Willie's friendship with Scott begins to fizzle a bit.

[la214la]

I loved this movie when I was a kid!

[obsidiantech]

I forgot how sugar coatingly gay this show was.

[QBCNetwork]

In 1987, NBC had the first Eight Is enough movie opposite The World Series on ABC. Willie Aames hit a home run! In the 1989 sequel (again opposite the World Series), it simply struck out!

I was disappointed that Tommy Bradford ditched his music career to be a manager. Reuben Kincaid, he isn't!

I'm glad that Houston pre-empted some of the movie due to Hurricane Jerry threatening the Gulf of Mexico.

[TylerActs86]

Well if you didn't know Sandy Faison is the woman who originated "Grace Farrell" in "Annie" on Broadway

[brickmanonj]

And how FAKE is that mullet?

[bingbong35]

God that's an awful mullet-tops Billy Ray Cyrus'.

[Plum65]

What hideous music! The show's original theme is so much better. Couldn't they have used some variation of it?

[dublinkitty]

OMG! Now THAT's a MULLET Willie!!!

[oz615]

What about that Cell phone!!!

[trebellecosi]

Thanks for sharing!
