Reunion: Fox

Reunion

Thursdays, 9 p.m., Fox (debuts Sept. 8)

What It's About Six high-school pals, including Will Estes (left) and Sean Faris (right), are unexpectedly reunited 20 years after graduation when one of them is brutally murdered.

Scene Stealer Six Feet Under alum Mathew St. Patrick shines in his brief scenes as a cop who's unraveling the multi-decade mystery.
