On 'Live With Regis and Kelly' (weekdays, syndicated), Chris Colfer of 'Glee' continues his campaign to have Julie Andrews appear on the show. Colfer has previously expressed a desire to have the actress appear in a cameo as his grandmother.

With an extraordinary career spanning five decades, Julie Andrews has had the opportunity to work with many leading men. On 'Rachael Ray' (weekdays, syndicated), Andrews dished on James Garner's prowess as a kisser, and fondly recalled the male lead in one of her most iconic movies.

The cast of 'The Sound of Music' will reunite on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' on Oct. 29.

According to Entertainment Weekly, this will be the first time the cast reunited in 45 years. Julie Andrews, Christopher Plummer and the actors who played the Von Trapp children, Duane Chase, Charmian Carr, Nicholas Hammond, Heather Menzies-Urich, Angela Cartwright, Kym Karath and Debbie Turner, will all be in attendance.

Get ready for the hills to be alive with tears, joy and last but not least, music.

As the ranking #2 fan of The Muppets here at TV Squad (Adam definitely has me beat), I'm happy to announce that season two of The Muppet Show will be available on DVD on August 7th. It's been about 2 years since season one came out on DVD and fans have been not-so-patiently waiting for more.

Season two is a 24-episode set with classic guest appearances by Bob Hope, George Burns, John Cleese, Milton Berle, Elton John, Bernadette Peters and Julie Andrews, just to name a few. The bonus material includes The Muppets Valentine Day Special, a pilot which aired two years before The Muppet Show came on air. It features Kermit and Mia Farrow, and is hosted by little-known Muppet 'Wally'.
