Can you believe it's been 10 years since Forever first aired?! (10 years, 3 months, to be exact.)

Why in the world did Forever end?

When Forever came to an end after 1 year in May 2015, million viewers tuned in to say goodbye to Detective Jo Martinez (Alana de la Garza) and Doctor Henry Morgan (Ioan Gruffudd). And since then, they have been itching for a reunion.

Would a Forever reunion disappoint people?

Forever aired from 2014-2015 and is considered one of the most influential TV shows ever on pop culture. Although no original episodes have been shot since, it has remained a regular feature on many station's schedules. But De la Garza said she's not sure if Forever would work today. “I don't want to see old Detective Jo Martinez,” she told a journalist (De la Garza turned 48 in June). “Everyone’s going to have different vision of what the character is like, so to have that materialize is going to disappoint most people,” she added.

Still hoping for a Forever movie?

In a recent interview, MacKenzie Mauzy (who played Abigail Morgan) said she can't imagine a Forever reunion hitting the big screen. “I'd rather people go, ‘Oh, please! Please!’ than ‘I can't believe you did that. It was horrible.’”

Co-star Lorraine Toussaint (who played Lieutenant Joanna Reece) has also previously explained, “It would be terrible to do something and have it not be good,”. “It was so terrific ... If we did a Forever movie and it sucked, then it would, you know, blemish it.”

On the subject of whether there could be a Forever film, Alana de la Garza stated : “I think it's a bit of a case of ‘the book is better than the movie’.”

What about a Forever reboot?

Recasting Forever for a modern reboot. Hollywood is known for remaking remakes of films or tv series and the studios might think it would be great to bring the story back with a new set of characters.

Be it in the form of a Forever reunion, a Forever movie, or a Forever reboot, if you had to start filming today, who would you cast in what role?
