For the last few months, I’ve found comfort in ensemble sitcoms about groups of friends in their 20s and 30s, now that I am unable to ensemble IRL with my groups of friends in their 20s and 30s. New Girl, Community, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, etc. aren’t substitutes for human contact, but they do a good job of reminding me of the pleasures of gathering, gossiping, sitting in comfortable silence—all things Zoom doesn’t quite capture. The best of these ensemble sitcoms, in my humble and correct opinion, is Happy Endings, a short-lived ABC masterpiece I’ve rewatched on Hulu about 700 times. And allegedly, we’re finally getting some sort of reunion.
Variety spoke to former Happy Endings star Casey Wilson, who confirmed the former showrunners were putting together some sort of pandemic charity special a la Parks and Recreation, whose recent reunion show raised $2.8 million for covid-19 relief .
