High School Reunion originally aired three seasons on the now-defunct The WB in 2003 and 2004. TV Land announced in November 2006 that it was reviving the reality series and began production in Spring 2007.
High School Reunion's fourth season was initially scheduled to debut last August, however that never happened.
"High School Reunion provides TV Land viewers with a fascinating window into how classmates who knew each other in the 1980s have evolved over the last 20 years," said TV Land president Larry W. Jones. "By bringing together the alumni for a two-week getaway, High School Reunion allows the classmates to really experience how they have changed -- or have not changed -- since graduation."
In addition to High School Reunion, TV Land announced The Big 4-0, which will follow various people as the prepare to celebrate their fortieth birthday, will premiere April 16; She's Got the Look, which was previously announced under the title 35 and Beyond Super Model Search and is an America's Next Top Model-like reality show for women over 35-years-old, will premiere June 4; and Family Foreman, which will follow American Inventor judge George Foreman and his family, will debut July 16.
High School Reunion is a Warner Horizon and Next Entertainment production, with The Bachelor's Mike Fleiss and Lisa Levinson serving as executive producers for the six-episode series.
