Moderated by New Yorker TV critic Nancy Franklin, the panel discussion was the first time since the 2005 series wrap party that the entire cast, creator, and even narrator Ron Howard (who appeared via telephone) have been brought back together in one place.

Veteran comedic actor Jeffery Tambor was originally brought in not to play George Sr., but rather to play Tobias.
