Niles Crane and there I said it.
I don't blame Jennette McCurdy one bit for not wanting to return to television. She'd been through enough as it is, and I'm glad the reboot respected her decision.
Me neither, after her ordeal with Dan Schneider and her mother, she's entitled to her own happiness. I hope that she's doing better emotionally now.
I was glad because very often if one star remains the holdout they often get the "aw come on man don't ruin our fun and think of the hundreds of jobs being created that won't happen unless you sign on" blackmail routine. So glad they respected her decision not to return and proceeded without her.
it's a revival not a reboot
Poor kid. Although she's always been pretty, she grew up to be gorgeous. If her mom was still alive and in control, I shudder to think that her mother would have used her looks to make things even worse.
It’s not a reboot .
I don’t blame Jennette McCurdy for not coming back as it would have been like opening an old wound. While Miranda, Nathan, and Jerry would have been there for her, she experienced too much back then. Also if I may say, I think she’s one of the most tragic Nickelodeon stars. If you really think about it there was no safe haven for her. Being on set was a nightmare and after reading her book being home wasn’t any better
Agreed and it’s harder to rewatch the original iCarly from 2007 or Sam and Cat or any show created by that horrible Dan Schneider upon knowing what Jennette went through. I even have her book and reading it was an emotional rollercoaster and made me feel even more sorry for her and I still feel sorry for her. Heck, she doesn’t even want to be called Sam Puckett or be compared to Sam Puckett because that’s not who she really is and if you saw her in public and say that fill in the blank character to her face, she’ll walk away from you and you’re not getting an autograph or a selfie with her. I like Jennette as a book author better than an actress and she should be free to choose her career without anybody getting in her way.
@@pbsfundingaddict790I can’t watch iCarly thanks to Dirty Dan.
You know you’re the worst when people would rather watch the rebooted version of your show instead of your own original version.
Chevy Chase didn’t refuse to come back; he was fired and was thus not allowed to come back.
Yeah that was some vital info they left out. Also, they killed off his character so I don't know how he'd be involved anyway?
I Thought Chevy Chase & Your Not Quit!
They also killed off the character.
Beside community didn't actually have a reboot just a original show.
I thought he was frustrated with how the writers were writing Pierce and that eventually he (Pierce) will call Troy and Shirley the N-Word.
Back when Frasier first came out, I was too young to appreciate it. Decades pass and my grandma was dying. What she found comfort in was Cheers and Frasier, which she would watch regularly with me. Both shows were great and have precious memories attached. I wish she could have been around for the revival.
I’m 32 and those are two of my comfort shows. Love them!
I am little bit older than you and was watching Cheers on reruns on a channel while they were still running on TV in the early '90s. I followed the show on to Frasier. I am 44.
At least they were able to get around Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker's feud by not having them be in the same room when Cattrall filmed her cameo.
Yeah
@@tiffprendergast Does it matter? Worst show ever.
Looks like they gave her the Chrissy Snow treatment.
I respect Jennette McCurdy's decision not to return to acting. What she went through made me cringe. However, it makes me happy to hear that she stays in touch with Miranda Cosgrove.
I don't blame Jennette McCurdy. She never wanted to be an actress, so I respect her opinions.
David Hyde Pierce was brilliant on Frasier. I'm still hoping for an occasional cameo on the reboot.
As a fan of Mary-Kate & Ashley for almost their entire lives, and the owner of one of their biggest fan pages back in the day, I would've loved to see them in "Fuller House." However, I respect their decision not to do it. They were forced into acting at a young age, and to this day they can't even step outside or go on vacation in another country without the paparazzi following them around. They are doing great in fashion, and that's their passion. We should be happy for them. 🙂
Congratulations on your lobotomy
Yeah I don’t think either of them was particularly good at acting, singing or dancing. They are much better with fashion and business ownership. I’m glad they finally are doing what they want to.
They will never show their face after Mary-Kate got caught murdering Heath Ledger
The twins were forced out of the light when one got caught murdering Ledger. Never to be seen again.
@@ThatJew
No
I understand Jennette's decision and that she never wanted to be an actress; but I thought the only thing she liked was hanging with Miranda, Nathan, & Jerry and would come back only for them
i believe her friendship with the main iCarly cast was a silver lining from her not-great experience in Hollywood and in life overall...
I doubt she would want to work with Dan Sneider, or anyone who was loyal to him and/or complacent to his actions, ever again.
@@michaelmonthey5974But look on the bright side! At least, the revival had the “same sex” concept that the other 2 shows in the group do.
Absolute respect for her wanting to be happier and take care of herself. I’m glad the show was respectful to her decision and didn’t take pot-shots at her
Well, just because Jennette was good friends with Miranda, didn’t mean she liked being on iCarly. Acting is a hobby, not an obligation. Acting is also dangerous because you would get little to no safety or salvation due to hidden predators looking for the innocent to do something wrong just to make a buck off it. Jennette’s much better as a book author than an actress and wants her acting career left in the past and that’s something we should all respect.
I'd like to think that Jenette McCurdy made more money on her book than what Nickelodeon was willing to pay for the hush money of 300,000 dollars to keep quiet. Can anyone confirm this ?
All I can find on the internet is that it was a 7-figure deal. So she definitely did. Good for her!
I definitely concur
She came out and said she wasn’t gonna take the money and she never did; she never did take the money
Funny, she phrased it exactly that way when she addressed the hush money
Although I was a little sorry that Jennette McCurdy wasn't on the !Carly reboot. I respect the reason why she didn't do it. And I wish her well in everything she does in life going forward.
After everything Jennette's been through, no one can blame her for refusing to return to iCarly
Jane Leeves strangely didn't come back to Frasier's reboot either, considering how much she loved being part of the show
I can definitely understand why Jeannette passed on returning to the role on Sam on the iCarly reboot, given her past experiences and her not wanting to be reminded of those experiences.
It'd probably be the same if there was a reboot of Sam & Kat
You forgot “that 90s show”. I heard Danny masterson didn’t appear due to a “scheduling conflict” of some kind.
😂😂😂😂
Ashton and Mila wrote character letters to try to get him untied up with what he was busy doing
Jennette McCurdy’s tragic story is the reason why T.V. networks should make sure actors are enthusiastic and passionate about acting in order to avoid toxic controversies like this. Jennette’s story hurt Miranda and everyone around her.
Agreed, I can’t help but feel sorry for Jennette McCurdy upon receiving a hardcover of her 2022 book, I’m Glad My Mom Died. That book was an emotional rollercoaster and I give kudos to Jennette for rightfully expressing the pain of the trauma she was forced to endure until her narcissistic mother went to hell in 2013. Also, she made it abundantly clear that her career as an actress was meant to be left in the past and a warning in advance, if you unexpectedly see her in public and call her Sam Puckett, she’ll turn and walk away from you and you’re not getting an autograph from her or a selfie with her. Acting is a hobby, not an obligation. Acting is also dangerous and you’d get little to no safety or salvation due to hidden predators looking for the innocent to do something wrong so they can make a buck off it. It’s bad enough that Jennette was abused by her narcissistic mother and harassed by the horrible Dan Schneider, who should be in jail by now and she shouldn’t have to go through this nightmare again. She was an innocent frog struggling to survive two snakes and we must respect her decision to quit acting and move on with her life as a book author and that’s that.
Every time I see Chad Michael Murray all I can think of is Will Ferrell as Chad Michael Michael in "Blades of Glory". 😂
I wish we got to see Sam in the iCarly revival series since she was my favorite, but oh well.
Tori Spelling was in a few episodes of the 2008 iteration of 90210.
Right!
I do understand Jennette mcurdys reasons to not return but it would’ve been nice to Sam one more time and to see her story wrap nicely
I'm surprised that Tina Louise, who portrayed Ginger on the Gilligan's Island TV series, isn't on this list. Once the series was over, she distanced herself from the series, and refused to participate in any reunions. Russell Johnson, the actor who played the Professor, went so far to say that she detested the series. To date, she is the last surviving regular cast member of that series.
Eventually she was on a reunion show. Distinctly recall it and it was right before Bob Denver passed.
Mojo caters to younger folks, so they usually avoid pre 1980's items.
From what I understand of Tina Louise she was salty because she thought she should have been the star of that show and gotten top billing.
As a huge Twin Peaks fan, I was quite disappointed Michael Ontkean didn't come back. Yes his ''brother'' did a fairly good job of playing the ''straight cop'' (who didn't go through any of the previous events of the Twin Peaks cannon and therefore appropriately acted distant from the previous story we're accustomed to while showing that same ''small town warmth'' towards Twin Peaks current citizens)... Sheriff Harry S.Truman, you were missed and I wish you the very best in retirement - thank you for the memories.
I feel like it was such a huge mistake replacing the original Saved By The Bell cast
Me too
to be fair they graduated and it would have been really odd a bunch off adults still hanging around Bayside.
Eve Plumb......Jan Brady , was the one I remember the most for snubbing reunions
She made it to a TV Land reunion but when they did both the Brady Brides and a variety hour she refused to participate.
@@alanvallazza9781 Eve Plumb did "Brady Brides" and the "Brady Christmas" TV movie, also the 1990 "Bradys" 1 hour "drama".
Didn't Susan Olsen skip out on the first one as well?
@@HariSeldon913 actually Maureen,Eve and Susan missed out at least one reunion project.
@@1talldaddy On the flipside, Eve did a cameo in "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka" with the Brady theme playing behind her.
To be fair to the actor who portrayed him, Tristan's part in the Gilmore Girls revival was so small I hadn't acctually noticed it was a different person.
😢😢😢9:00, Sadly, we all expected this sooner or later
There's a difference between "refusing" to return than to decline due to other obligations
Sam best character of icarly
Don’t forget Spencer. 😂
@@sherricolli7875 fact with his ultimate comedy
I agree including Spencer😅
OA I guess I can’t blame Jennette McCurdy for not returning to the reboot of iCarly, if she wanted to write a book about the passing of her Mother I’m sure my Aunt Holly would read it but not me. Still I also wonder how she feels about the series Between getting cancelled. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Very very great epic list I like it a lot very very great job mis mojo one of my absolute favorite list ever 😊❤
hopefully Niles does eventually return
Yes. Never say never.
To me, it's Kim Cattral. Happy sunday, Samantha. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.
TV reunions in general are mostly a cash grab and more like a bunch of bored old people trying to recreate the past! I respect Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, they’ve moved on and are doing other things than just acting! Even one of the actors who played Leslie and Ann Perkin’s friend from Parks and Recreation turned down the reunion, because it was just an online covid fundraiser and called it a bogus reunion, even Chris Pratt who appeared in the reunion, would later be embarrassed by his reprisal in that reunion!
At least the "iCarly" reboot respected Jennette and Noah's decision not to return to the reboot, unlike "Fuller House" with Mary Kate and Ashley. That collective disapproving glance directly to the camera was seriously uncalled for, and was cringy to watch.
And acknowledged what happened to Sam
I will give that reboot that credit. Janette been through so much as is.
@@blind_t2 True
What about Tina Louise in Gillian’s island ?
If these actors were treated with more respect, then they could have came back for a reunion
Chevy Chase didn't refuse to come back. He wasn't invited. Dan Harmon and the entire cast don't want to ever work with him again.
Yeah that seems to happens with any project involving Chevy Chase.
Kim Cattral was very mature in her approach
It may not count because it never aired, but worth a mention…
There was supposed to be a Disney+ revival of Lizzie McGuire a couple of years ago. It got scrapped because Hilary Duff and Disney disagreed on its direction and they filmed 2 eps. before production stopped.
The parents, brother and Gordo were back but Lalaine was not a part of it. She seems to want to distant herself from Lizzie McGuire.
Disney didn’t want her back because she was addicted to crack
Adam Lamberg (Gordo) stopped acting prior to production of the revival and its cancellation.
Tina Louise / Gilligan's Island.
I love when she says someone was replaced by another actor. Well, that's great, because I would have hated to see him replaced by a couch.Or a race horse
There was no reason for Chad Michael Murray to be replaced on Gilmore Girls. Since the reunion episode had to do with graduates of the school returning, and he wasn't a graduate. Last he was seen, he was pulled out to go to military school.
Shelley Morrison - Will & Grace
I think I heard she retired from acting due to health issues.
She was sick and died in December 2019.
Kim did the right thing. And Just Like That is awful. And I wish Niles would come back to Frasier, his son is not cutting it.
Honestly I don't blame Jennette for not being part of the iCarly reboot. Her new career as an author and director is much better for her!
Yes agreed
I never wanted to be in TV shows or movies i'm glad I made the right choice
Kat Graham never going back to any of the Vampire Diary Franchise shows. And good for her!!
Sadly, they completely missed the point with the iCarly reboot, the show was BOTH of them. Without either, the show should've never moved on to filming.
I almost hate to say , " and just like that" is working. The show is GREAT and even with kim gone , it WORKS
i think the clips of mk and ashley saying "im not sure if its memories or old footage" makes me kind of sad. their reality/early developmental memories are warped. as a huge fan of the show and of them when i was a kid, seeing them step away was the best thing they did.
Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen do not show up in Fuller House what up with that?
They were more focused on their fashion line.
I think they were pushed into the business by their parents and once they were old enough to have a say in what they wanted, they decided that they did not want to act anymore and opted for a career in fashion. I also can’t remember which of the twins suffered with an eating disorder which clearly shows that their time acting and being in the spotlight was not an overall good experience. Like Jeanette McCurdy I respect their decision, but I really would have liked to see both McCurdy and The Olsen Twins reprise their roles.
@@michelleweintraub945 Mary-Kate had the eating disorder, and yes they intentionally got out of the business. In fact, Ashley never did any acting as an adult. Mary-Kate did a couple of things.
They completely gave up acting after several sitcoms they did failed and they got tired of doing movies. There was an attempt to get Elizabeth back on but she also refused because she wants the distance herself from her childhood. Elizabeth was in a few of the straight to DVD or VHS videos that the Olsen twins did.
They have actual lives that they live., BTW Elizabth Olsen is the twin's sister and was not on "FH". She is acting in Marvel movies/TV.
After seeing a deep dive video on Mary-Kate and Ashleys life and their experience on the show Full house I understand why they don't want to come back.
Obviously I fully understand why Jennette McCurdy chose not to return but I also think about the Olsen twins that comment one of the made about not being sure if your earliest memories were actually her memories or old footage is heartbreaking these girls were involved in Hollywood from such a young age it's understandable that they would want to step away from the screen
From what I understand when the Olsen Twins declined to appear in Fuller House they called Elizabeth olsen and asked her to do it. Obviously she declined as well.
I read Jennette’s book, totally recommend it
Never heard of them before and won't be looking into watching anything by either of them.
I thought I had seen a range in Boots the other Christmas that was called zoella, and now I understand what and who that was.
And by the way guys full House may return again but with a different format then Fuller House. Dave Coulier and John Stamos are on board with it. But two things the death of Bob Saget and the personal issues with Lori Loughlin have caused them to put plans on hold. As Candace Cameron said in an interview It wasn't that long ago that the reboot wrapped up and they have to figure things out so they're not there yet. But they had such a good time on Fuller House that they want to return. As this video states there's an idea for second reboot.
Yes I bet there will be one in 10 to 15 years if not more but I bet it will happen
It seems like every time a revival or legacy sequel is announced, there’s always at least one actor who played an extremely important role who won’t return. Either because they died or ruined their career or moved on to other career opportunities or just don’t want anything to do with it.
The Netflix revival absolutely RUINED Gilmore Girls, and the lack of Chad Michael Murray had nothing to do with that.
No one misses Chevy Chase.
Bill Murray would piss on his grave.
I can see why Jeannette McCurdy did not come back in the iCarly reboot. Given how horrible Dan Schneider treated her and the other child actors.
Quinto...........do we even know if he was offered the chance to come back?
Elizabeth Olsen (MK & A's sister) offered to come in as Michelle in Fuller House but was told no.
Actually she wasn't told no and she didn't offer to be Michelle on Fuller House. Not hard to find her interview stating as much
Melissa Joan Hart did not appear in the chilling adventures of Sabrina and would like to her to appear at least once.
Noah Munck as Gibby in iCarly.
Victoria Principal declined the offer to come back for the Dallas reboot.
I would've liked to have seen the actor who played Gibby return to I Carly
Please do top 20 times my little pony friendship is magic and Equestria girls tackled serious issues, top 20 times my little pony friendship episodes, and top 30 my little pony friendship is magic and Equestria girls songs
"Made its cast into hiusehold names." Uh, Kelsey Grammer was *already* pretty famous.
I don't blame Jennette or MK&A for not wanting to come back....and the people who bashed the Olsens for doing returning because "that show made them famous" should be ashamed of themselves. Those girls don't owe anything to anybody; they explained why they wouldn't and that should be that.
I love Jeannette McCurdy
Didn’t know Gilmore girls had a reboot
Jenny McCurdy hasn't ever seen a camera she's not willing to sit in front of ever 😂
I don’t blame Jennette McCurdy’s decision. I love that vine though.
Samantha. Always was the best! But I understand that she needs peace ❤
God, I just want to give Jennette a big hug.
it sucks that jenntte mccurdy mother treated her so bad that she quit acting, i could understand her not wanting to play sam again, but would of liked to see her still do acting in bigger roles
After that horrible fever dream that was called a second season, absolutely nothing could "breathe life" back into Heroes. DOA.
*#SixSeasonsAndAMovie**!!!!!*
I don't care about Chevy Chase, as long as the others are in the Community movie. 🤗
Really that's number one, what about George Clooney not wanting to do a ER reunion
I don’t blame Jennette McCurdy for refusing to return to acting including but not limited to the iCarly revival from 2021. She made it abundantly clear that her career as an actress was meant to be left in the past and a warning in advance, if you unexpectedly see her in public and call her Sam Puckett, she’ll turn and walk away from you and you’re not getting an autograph from her or a selfie with her. Acting is a hobby, not an obligation. Acting is also dangerous and you’d get little to no safety or salvation due to hidden predators looking for the innocent to do something wrong so they can make a buck off it. It’s bad enough that Jennette was abused by her narcissistic mother and harassed by the horrible Dan Schneider, who should be in jail by now and she shouldn’t have to go through this nightmare again. She was an innocent frog struggling to survive two snakes and we must respect her decision to quit acting and move on with her life as a book author and that’s that.
Tina Louise, "Gilligan's Island," but she wasn't missed.
I was 100% expecting Shannen Doherthy, but KIM CATRALL as number one!?!?!? She did say she wouldn't be back for the new series... But she did come back, if only for one scene. So I don't know what she's doing in this video....
Really? Commending the work of Anton Narinskiy? For standing off in the distance and not saying a word? 🤣🤣🤣
I don't blame them
There were several
shows I would have like to in the reboot Frasier, Pinky and the Brain, King of the Hill, and Futurama but I was never interested in subscribing to a stream to see them
Tina Louise-Gilligan's Island
to me if I had to see one of these
celebrities return as there roles
it would be Jennette Mccurdy
like iCarly and Victorious were both shows I had a great love/hate relationship with and when they released the spinoff show Sam and Cat staring the 2 great actors in the shows Jennette McCurdy and Ariana Grande I kind of felt like hating the shows more
and now that they did a reboot of the show iCarly and don’t have Jennette McCurdy I just feel like hating the show completely and same thing if they were to do a reboot of Victorious we all know there’s just no way Ariana Grande will return and so yeah why not just not talk about anymore like the 2 celebrities
but yeah got to say if they were to do a reboot of Victorious and Ariana Grande did really that would be too surprising especially when think about the fact she ended up getting her hair ruined when the role so it too obvious she won’t return if they did do a reboot

How would they do that? They both would still play the same character?
Miss all you
I wished Samantha would come back and do something outrageous, like suing Carrie for all of her Big money for a breach of contract or something.😂
Samantha wouldn’t do that.
@@nmv33 they have built 2 seasons of AJLT on the notion of Samantha being offended by Carrie and hurt by her. A scorn Samantha is capable of many things - like spreading flyers with Richard's cheating face all over Manhattann, just to make herself feel better. So I'm thinking it is not that far fetched.
They AppWare'd to have made up with the cameo scene, so no.
If it wasn't for a certain person Fuller house wouldn't have gotten canceled😢
James brolin who rose to fame in marcus welby didnt do the reunon movie cause he was tied up in his new series HOTEL
Hotel was one of the most successful shows in television history. It aired on ABC for five seasons from 1983 to 1988 with James Brolin,
Connie Sellecca Tesh, Nathan Cook among others for Spelling Television, a Paramount/Viacom Company. At this point, he's more focused
on Hotel because that's where he wanted it to be - but several offers which he turned down were both Marcus Welby reunion TV movies
from 1984 to 1988 with Robert Young for MCA Television under Seagram since Fall 1977. Instead, he moved on to all-new projects.
I only came here expecting to see Maddie and Mackenzie Ziegler not being at the Dance Moms reunion...
I don’t blame Jennette at all.
Right on
I applaud Jennette McCurdy for setting the way for child actors being abused on set and how some of their parents are toxic as well. I also applaud her for stepping away from acting to heal. While I do miss her on screen, I know she’s successful in other areas
