Also present at the reunion were Sunshine Dizon, former actress Chantal Umali, writer Kit Langit, associate producer Neal Del Rosario, and musical scorer and batch two director Dominic Zapata, and creator and batch one director Mark Reyes.

The reunion coincided with TGIS's 23rd anniversary celebration this year.

In Michael's caption, he also mentioned some of the show's stars who weren't able to make it to the party: Bobby Andrews, Bernadette Allyson, Onemig Bondoc, Red Sternberg, Raven Villanueva, Dino Guevarra, Polo Ravales, Antoinette Taus, and Anne Curtis.

He also teased that a reunion project might be in the works.

He wrote, "WE ARE..T.G.I.S.!!! ???? Thank you @pinaypole for hosting lastnight's #TGIS23 reunion! We had soo much fun! Missing @iambobbyandrews @bernadetteallyson_e @uno_111 @redsternberg @ravenskinner1 @dinoguevarraofficial @poloravales @antoinettetaus @annecurtissmith @veroniquecorpus and the rest of the gang!! I think it's time to make a reunion tv/movie project for our tgis fans very soon! We are claiming it kaya abangan niyo! #TGIS23 #THANKGODITSSABADO #batang90s #gma #viva #tgbtg"

The all-white party, so far, was the biggest reunion of TGIS stars and staff in many years.

It was the first time that both batches joined forces for a reunion.

TGIS celebrated its 23rd anniversary last August 12.
