See how Raj, Dwayne Rerun, Dee and Shirley turn out about six years later. I haven't seen the series since the early 1990's, so I am pumped! Keep watching the What's Happening!! marathon all-weekend long on TV Land!! We always end with two exclamation points while talking about What's Happening!! and What's Happening Now!!
