The stars of hit 1980s Fox sitcom “Married…. With Children” are reuniting in January for a live event that will serve as a benefit for the Race to Erase MS organization.
“Married… With Children” stars Ed O’Neill, Katey Sagal, Christina Applegate and David Faustino are set to gather on stage at Los Angeles’ Wiltern Theatre on Wednesday, Jan. 28, 2026, to celebrate and reminisce about their 11-season sitcom, which ran from April 1987 to June 1997, ultimately filming 259 episodes.
According to the announcement for “An Evening with The Bundys: The Married with Children Cast Reunion,” attendees “can expect never-before-heard stories, rare behind-the-scenes moments, and plenty of laughs as the Bundys relive their most outrageous and iconic memories together.” There are no plans to film the reunion, which means the only chance to see the Bundy clan gathering will be in person at the Wiltern.
Race to Erase MS, which is dedicated to the treatment and cure of Multiple Sclerosis, will receive $2 from every ticket sold. Applegate revealed in 2021 that she had been diagnosed with MS, said in May 2023 that she likely wouldn’t appear on-camera anymore due to the autoimmune disease. Last year she spoke to Good Morning America about the news.
Tickets for the reunion, which is being produced by Live Nation Concerts with Blunt Mgmt.’s Ben Brucato, begin Thursday, Oct. 30 at 10 a.m. PT at ticketmaster.com.
This isn’t the first time the “Married… With Children” family has reunited. In 2003, Fox aired a sit-down reunion and clips special that netted a whopping 19.2 million viewers and a stunning 9.8 rating with adults 18-49.
When Applegate received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2022, she was joined by Sagal, Faustino and fellow co-star Amanda Bearse. The cast has been seen together at other events over the years too.

In 2022, word came that “Married… With Children” studio Sony was prepping an animated revival of the series, with O’Neill, Sagal, Applegate and Faustino all attached to reprise their roles as the Bundy family, but there’s been no word since then on what happened to that pitch.
“Married… With Children” was one of the first shows to launch on the then-fledgling Fox network, and became an immediate hit as its raunchy jokes and storylines were a huge contrast to the stereotypical soft family comedy. The show, set in Chicago, starred O’Neill as women’s shoe salesman Al Bundy, Sagal as his wife Peggy, Applegate as not-so-bright daughter Kelly and Faustino as troublemaker son Bud.
