The Barones Are Back! ‘Everybody Loves Raymond’ Cast Reunites For Anniversary Special See How The Cast Looks After 30 Years
The cast of Everybody Loves Raymond is coming together once again to celebrate the show’s 30th anniversary. CBS released new photos of the reunion, giving fans a first look at the beloved stars back together after decades since the show’s debut in 1996.
Ray Romano, Brad Garrett, Patricia Heaton, Monica Horan, Madylin Sweeten, Sullivan Sweeten, and series creator Phil Rosenthal all appear in the new images. The pictures highlight the nostalgia and warmth that defined the sitcom about the Barone family. Sadly, some familiar faces are missing, Doris Roberts, Peter Boyle, and Sawyer Sweeten, who have all passed away since the series ended in 2005.
CBS announced that the Everybody Loves Raymond: 30th Anniversary Reunion special will air on Monday, November 24. The special will be hosted by Romano and Rosenthal, with appearances from Garrett, Heaton, Horan, and the Sweeten siblings.
In the classic series, Garrett played Robert Barone, Ray’s older brother; Heaton starred as Ray’s wife, Debra; Horan played Robert’s wife, Amy; Madylin portrayed Ray and Debra’s daughter, Ally; while Sullivan and Sawyer Sweeten played their twin sons, Michael and Geoffrey.
CBS revealed that the reunion will bring audiences back to a recreated version of the Barone family’s living room, where so many of the show’s iconic moments took place. “Twenty years since the show’s finale episode, audiences are invited back to the recreated Barone living room for an unforgettable evening with America’s favorite family,” the network said in a statement.
The event promises never-before-seen clips, behind-the-scenes stories, and “candid conversations” with the original cast. It will also pay tribute to the late Doris Roberts and Peter Boyle, who played Marie and Frank Barone. Roberts passed away in 2016 at age 90, and Boyle died in 2006 at 71.
The reunion will also honor Sawyer Sweeten, who tragically died in 2015 at the age of 19.
