    I stumble across this today.



    "Thing have changed so much in 20 years since the original series"

    WTH. Didn't CSI JUST end a couple of years ago?

    I think it started just over 20 years ago. Finale for the LV one was probably five or so years back? - Last I watched it though was probably 2010ish

    Off the top of my head, the finale would've been at least six years ago since Ted Danson has had six seasons of three different TV shows since then, 1 for CSI: Cyber, 4 for The Good Place and whatever his new show is.

    Turner & Hooch series on Disney+ is a direct sequel to the movie.... and they killed off Tom Hanks' character before the show even begins.

    No, it's a new dog too. It's a follow-up with no one from the movie actually in it.

    Wait, I was wrong, they brought back in a recurring role.... Reginald VelJohnson.

    Nah, Reginald VelJohnson is Urkel's uncle from Family Matters. The actor who died played uncle Phil on Fresh Prince. I forget his name. He was a Klingon once on ENT.

    The dog died in the movie, but he had fathered an identical puppy. but based on the timeline, this must be a granddog of the original.

    Uncle? I thought Urkel was just the whacky neighbour.

    He's also the principal in Invincible.
