Fans are awaiting Martin: The Reunion with bated breath. The special is airing on BET+ on June 16, and the network has released the official trailer. The television event sees the surviving members of the beloved sitcom reuniting on the show's famous set to revisit their time on the hit series, which ran for five seasons from 1992 to 1997.

Thomas Mikal Ford, who played Tommy in the series, died in 2016; the trailer opens with a dedication to the late actor.

Several special guests are slated to appear on the reunion; including Snoop Dogg and Tommy Davidson, stars who guested during the show's original run.
