The Mary Tyler Moore Reunion is a retrospective television special of the 1970-77 comedy series The Mary Tyler Moore Show which aired on CBS on May 13, 2002.
Mary Tyler Moore hosted the special in which she personally reminisces one-on-one with her former co-stars Ed Asner, Valerie Harper, Gavin MacLeod, Georgia Engel, Betty White and Cloris Leachman, as well as a special tribute to Ted Knight (who died in 1986) and also includes clips from the show's best episodes.
During the special, Mary reveals the result of an online poll at CBS.com where viewers were asked to vote for their favorite Mary Tyler Moore Show episode and the winner was: "Chuckles Bites the Dust".
The show's original theme song "Love Is All Around" used for this special is the version recorded in 1996 by Joan Jett & the Blackhearts which had previously been used for the opening sequence of the 2000 TV movie reunion Mary and Rhoda.
