Growing up in England, California Dreams would always remind me of the summer holidays where there would be kids programmes on TV every Monday-Friday and California Dreams would be on at 9am. Being a pre-teen and a teen in the 90's was amazing. If I could re-live that time, I so would.
Arguably the best sitcom intro song ever. As a Cali born kid this song helped me achieve my dreams despite going through some tough dog days. "Don't wake me up if I'm dreaming."
Oh my god this reunion was so awesome and epic 😍😍😪😩😩😩I nearly cried when the whole cast came out I saw my childhood flash before my eyes. Jimmy is so awesome!!!
Michael Cade looks so much like young Tom Cruise. I love how half the cast is all “I’m marrrrried I have kids” other half is like I’VE GOT PROJECTS IM STILL WORKING IM STILL TRYING”
Jennie Kwan mostly stopped doing live-action after the show ended aside from a few guest spots and has mostly been doing voice-acting for anime since the 2000s.
I can’t explain it this show was never as good as saved by the bell but California Dreams intro is so great that it takes you back to your child just listening to it.
Amazing reunion! You guys made a lot of childhoods happy, including mine and I'm not even from the US, I am from Romania but I loved California Dreams. Along with Saved by the Bell and a few others too. A lot of laughs. Thanks everyone including writers, directors and all involved. Awesome!!
Paul Smith , The first 2 seasons where Ok, but it just seems that the cast of seasons 3-5 had better chemistry in my opinion. Also, the actors/actress that played Jake, Tony, Sly and Tiffany were more seasoned in their roles in the final 3 seasons
@@tristone4992 i enjoyed the first 2 seasons more. the last 3 seasons felt a bit too cartoony and i didnt care much for the music compared to the first two seasons.
These are the kind of things that he did when he had the Late Night show. After the switch to The Tonight Show it's all games and young axe with more style than substance. It's a shame he used all his talent to do is Impressions good comedy bits now one hour earlier and it's just an unwatchable show to the point where it's almost tragic
And here I am AGAIN, 37 years old and in tears! This was amazing!! And BITCHHHHHHHH they all still look soooo good! And WOOOOOOOOOOOO MICHAEL CADE fuckin dream boat!!
Yes. I definitely liked being in high school during the early 90s and graduating high school in 1994. Somehow, I definitely feel that being middle school in the late 80s( fall 1988 to summer 1990) and high school from ( fall 1990-to June 1994) because now middle school and high school school is definitely NOT a safe place for kids nowadays.
Out of all the songs I’ve ever heard pop songs rock songs songs from icons … this is the song that holds a deep rooted nostalgic memory for me and it brings back warm innocent feelings of my childhood
Awww. I love this. What a fun show. I have one season on DVD. I really enjoyed seeing this reunion. Thank you cast for coming together and knowing how sweet that this was for your fans. It's great that you all are doing great. Thank you Jimmy Fallon Show for putting this reunion show together.
Loved this show while growing up...and that they’re all still alive! I would have loved if this reunion was longer...but still, glad Jimmy got them to sing the theme song!
Hey Jimmy Fallon thanks bring all the cast the California dream I used to watch that show on NBC on Saturday morning I don't know what time they had the best song and that California's dreams be good Jimmy keep doing what you always do and thank you
These are the original cast of California Dreams with the exemption of Dennis Haskins who played Mr. Belding on Saved By The Bell but I am glad that he was there too.
Actually Jay Anthony Franke (Jake) and Jennie Kwan (Sam) were not one of the original cast of California Dreams, those two debuted in season 2 not season 1.
I'm really excited about the resurgence in the popularity of this great show! About 10 years ago, I was looking everywhere for CD content. There were no episodes issued for home video media, no music available except a few grainy, staticy clips on TH-cam and a MySpace page by someone who was officially involved with the music and show who had some kind of petitionto release the rights. Of course, now I'm broke and can't buy any of the seasons on DVD or buy digital copies of the music. BUT thanx to the internet, I can at least get small fixes here and there. Most importantly, I can listen to the theme song. I realize that for most people, it's a happy, sunny song. I personally have a darker interpretation of the song, but it saw me through some stuff I dont care to remember.
Damn, i used to watch this show straight after school, as my parents hadn’t got a tv then i would pass by by my friends place down the road from where i used to stay! Thanks for the memories.
Jimmy Fallon should do a Kids Incorporated reunion! The cast changed a lot, but he should get the major members, including Fergie, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Renee Sands, Martika, Rahsaan, Ryan, etc to perform one song! That would be awesome!!!
@@AlJalandhari Kelly Packard?! LOL!!! Sometimes she looks good enough to be mediocre. You should get tested for Covid because it appears you have no taste.
I've never seen this before till now. OMG! What a beautiful reunion with the cast of California Dreams. Jimmy, really gave us quite a remarkable surprise. I miss those days growing up as a teen in the 90s. Mr. Cade looks great and Super HOT.
«Good to know none of the cast of the dreams have ego's! ». I agree. Glad to see that they are basically normal people, working in music, or in movies, or being mothers and housewives or whatever. Just like millions of people. It's a pity that Aaron Jackson and Diana Uribe couldn't be there, however.

This was part of late night with Jimmy Fallon which was just so much different so much funnier so much better than anything he has done on The Tonight show with all the ridiculous stupid unfunny games. It's quite sad I was a big fan of late night but then he had to compromise for the younger viewers and it all went to hell
they all look soooooo good!! this is back when Saturday mornings were the BEST!! love the reunion..
you're welcome! This was thanks to Jay. Gonna try update this channel very soon..stay tuned..
I did not watch the show but my sister's used to watch it in the weekend :) hope i put a smile on there fabe when i share the link on facebook lol
Jay Anthony franke looks rough he's aged badly
They don't have TVs in the ghetto shut up

Being a pre-teen and a teen in the 90's was amazing. If I could re-live that time, I so would.
As long as you had satellite or cable TV being a kid in the 90s was brilliant
Haha, the same was here in Hungary! 😁
The 90’s was the best! We was the last generation to grow up pre internet and no social media nonsense.
Yes! Same!!!!
90s teen here. 90s was the best time growing up. I miss that decade so much filled with so much good memories.
They started singing the theme song and I still knew all of the words. The brain is funny that way.
I went to school with Michael Cade in NJ. We used to drive the history teacher nuts ! He acts the same way in real life lol
We could tell, thanks for conforming it though. : )
John Brex I remember those days. So long ago. Hope your doing well.
No way! He is one of my favorite actors on the show! I would love it I would met him in person
John Brex wow. We could tell. So Michael Cade is actually sly. He he
Stop lying

Those were the good old days baby
Brah. I’m sooo happy after watching this. Took me back to when I was late for saved by the bell
Michael Cade looks so much like young Tom Cruise. I love how half the cast is all “I’m marrrrried I have kids” other half is like I’VE GOT PROJECTS IM STILL WORKING IM STILL TRYING”
Jennie Kwan mostly stopped doing live-action after the show ended aside from a few guest spots and has mostly been doing voice-acting for anime since the 2000s.
I can’t believe this is 7 years old and I had no idea it Existed. This was amazing.
The fact that the audience joined in for "kinda groovy" and "good vibrations" told me the audience knows wassup
The nostalgia is real! One of my favorite childhood shows!! #CaliforniaDreamsForever ❤❤❤❤
I can’t explain it this show was never as good as saved by the bell but California Dreams intro is so great that it takes you back to your child just listening to it.
I teared up when they started singing the theme song 😢#californiadreamsforever
Me too
Just found this and I did as well
EPIC. JUST EPIC. And the fact they were willing to play the song was the cherry on top!
I loved that theme song. They still sound good. No lip syncing.
This and saved by the bell were definitely my favorites. 41 now, but still remember like it was yesterday. Saturdays!!!!!
I am 45 and I remember it like it was yesterday too.
Amazing reunion! You guys made a lot of childhoods happy, including mine and I'm not even from the US, I am from Romania but I loved California Dreams. Along with Saved by the Bell and a few others too. A lot of laughs. Thanks everyone including writers, directors and all involved. Awesome!!
That theme song takes me to a special time in my childhood. Seasons 3-5 were the best years of the show
Paul Smith , The first 2 seasons where Ok, but it just seems that the cast of seasons 3-5 had better chemistry in my opinion. Also, the actors/actress that played Jake, Tony, Sly and Tiffany were more seasoned in their roles in the final 3 seasons

@@chrishambrick892 gross?? Why gross??
Taking me back to 1993.. Everyone looks great!!
They look awesome... so much nostalgia. Just brings back so much I miss about Saturday morning/noon programming. Good times ❤
I randomly thought of the show and never knew they reunited so thank you so much for sharing this! #tearsofjoy #californiadreams
was just thinking that very thing,...surprised I hadn't seen it until tonight
Me too
They look so good! And I just realized that Michael Cade looks like Tom Cruise a bit.
Lol just posted the same comment
Memories of being in high school, 90s were the best
Yes. I definitely liked being in high school during the early 90s and graduating high school in 1994. Somehow, I definitely feel that being middle school in the late 80s( fall 1988 to summer 1990) and high school from ( fall 1990-to June 1994) because now middle school and high school school is definitely NOT a safe place for kids nowadays.
This clip put a huge smile on my face. ❤ ✌🏾
To all the characters and everyone else involved with the show.. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!! ❤🤙🏽
Loved this show!!! Bc they had more diversity with the main characters
Out of all the songs I’ve ever heard pop songs rock songs songs from icons … this is the song that holds a deep rooted nostalgic memory for me and it brings back warm innocent feelings of my childhood
That was my favorite show back in the days 😄😄
This is awesome. Loved that show as a kid. The whole cast looks great. Thank you for the wonderful memories! :)
you're welcome! Channel will be updated soon
😊
Awww. I love this. What a fun show. I have one season on DVD. I really enjoyed seeing this reunion. Thank you cast for coming together and knowing how sweet that this was for your fans. It's great that you all are doing great. Thank you Jimmy Fallon Show for putting this reunion show together.
i always had a crush on Sly .. and jake lol
Candice7 yes I did with Jake too.
Me too!!!
How did I miss this lol I still sing their theme song. Please do a Hangtime reunion
Omg !!! The theme song !!! I used to love this show I LOVE ALL OF YOUUU GUYS! Slayyyyyy
that was awesome. Seeing them sing live. They were a great cast and show.
Loved this show while growing up...and that they’re all still alive! I would have loved if this reunion was longer...but still, glad Jimmy got them to sing the theme song!
God they all still look stunning. Love this.
brent gore never ages. I can't believe that he is in his forties
They have not aged. God, this is nostalgia
I just became aware of this reunion. And I smiled through the whole dang thing.
They all aged so well!
I never thought that Ole Sly was cute in the 90's but now he's very attractive.
best part for jenny/heidi love this tears up
Recently rewatched the show. Sly was the best character. As a child I never realised that.
WOW! That was awesome! Big fan of that show.
its amazing how fantastic they all still look maybe even better than they did back then !
I remember watching this every Saturday morning after Saved by the Bell. Wishing that my school life was as easy as theirs.
Loved this show and fortunate to have the opportunity to meet Brent Gore and Diana Uribe (Lorena) in person.
They all look good!! One of my favorite shows!!!!!
That’s was the all good days of watching Saturday tv 📺 in the morning 80’s shows
Loved that show!
Wow!!! They all aged great!!!
They actually sang the song back then🥹🥹🥹 omg, I almost cried hearing them sing it now!
Grew up in 80s and 90s. The best eras when kids could be kids. Way before the rise of social media. Only good thing is we can see the reruns online.
They have all aged so well. Kelly Packard was my favorite. Although the actor who played Tony aged the best. They all still look fantastic.
Not just that but they're all just so happy and loving life! And that's just so infectious! Everybody needs a California Dreams cast in their lives!
California Dreams Love my favorite one fan Big 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖⭐️⭐️💖🏝

Jimmy Fallon should do a Kids Incorporated reunion! The cast changed a lot, but he should get the major members, including Fergie, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Renee Sands, Martika, Rahsaan, Ryan, etc to perform one song! That would be awesome!!!
Macon that would be amazing but I don’t see it happening.
Love that idea Macon! Kids Inc was one of my fave shows growing up!
Probably too many cast members to call back lol
Don’t forget Mario Lopez as well, he was one of their dancers in the show!
A City Guys Reunion would of been nice
Its been so long since this happened but I remember it like it was yesterday.
Heidi always had a great voice.
Yes she did Samantha had nothing compared to Jenny
Jennie Kwan is still really hot!
So is Kelly Packard and I'm sure Diana Uribe still is. The hottest cast of any Peter Engel show
Aka Jennifer Trinidad Fernando.
A man with taste in women. Finally!
@@AlJalandhari Diana's attractive, but Jenny Kwan has always been quite stunning. Asian women are incredibly beautiful.
@@AlJalandhari Kelly Packard?! LOL!!! Sometimes she looks good enough to be mediocre.
You should get tested for Covid because it appears you have no taste.
They all still can sing. It's Good how now how like they Got the old singing 5 Group Back. They now still can sing.
These guys rule! Great show!
wonderful to see them again love California dreams.....
Omg, I love this! Bring back the 90's, I miss it so much!!!!! Where is Aaron Jackson and Diana Uribe!?
Natalya Orlando I was thinking the same it was great to see Heidi, I was really bummed when she left the show.
I was all about this show
Jake came from Australia for 3 minutes. This should have been a longer segment!
Yea the show did them dirty. Before they even spoke Jimmy goes "we don't got a lot of time"
Loved the show, thank you guys
Thank you mr Fallon my shows I was younger make me feel like a kid again
Omggg Michael Cade!!! 🤤🤤
Sorry I missed that show.Thanks for the upload!!!
i love the california dreams theme song. Brent gore, jennie kwan, and kelly packard all still look great and sound great too
I used to watch re runs on TBS when I was little.
Sly never aged!
I've never seen this before till now. OMG! What a beautiful reunion with the cast of California Dreams. Jimmy, really gave us quite a remarkable surprise. I miss those days growing up as a teen in the 90s. Mr. Cade looks great and Super HOT.

She is so sweet how excited she is to be there.
This just made me so happy
Luved this show!!!
Sam Tipton others have uploaded the episodes so for now I'm not going to. Unless people ask me to at some stage.
I always thought Brent Gore looked just like Paul McCartney.
All the cast are pretty much their character. So great.
Maaaaaan this brought back so many memories!!!
Michael Cade is still fine!
Faith L I know right he's still got those six pack abs😍😍😙😙Slys looking pretty sexy these days.
