People

Michael J. Fox, Meredith Baxter, Michael Gross, Tina Yothers reunited for one segment of a two-part Stars in the House reunion Tuesday night. Marc Price, Scott Valentine and Brian Bonsall reunited for the second part. During their discussion, Gross remembered the show having a drama-free set. "I think I took some of how great we were together for granted," he said, according to People. "I didn't know how contrary some shows could be and how some casts quarreled the way they did. I mean, I just thought it was all perfection the way ours was and I didn't really understand that things don't always go this particularly well — that there was no controversy, not a lot of problems." Baxter went on to explain something that the cast "would do" to make guest stars feel welcome on set. "We made a point of any time we had a guest actor on — because I had been guests on shows and it's hard, it's hard to come in from outside and come into a group that's really tight and funny and they've got their own tricks and stuff and you're sitting around on the outside. And we really made a point of pulling them in and showing them craft services and just playing with them too just so they felt as ease. And I think that always worked for us."
