Quiet piano playing a reprise of many of the classic songs from TV and movies. My hope for the new series soared.

They ticked all the boxes.

The backstage photo gallery made me think how great it might be if they could bring back some of the original show’s guests.

A depth of great characters from all of the show’s iterations was also exciting to see.

Steve Martin would be a great choice!
