Reunion

Reunion tracks Daniel Brennan as he attempts to stitch together a life he isn’t sure he deserves. Fresh out of prison, he finds himself straddling two different worlds: a hearing community that keeps him at arm's length and a Deaf community that remains wary after the crime he's accused of. Old friends drift away, leaving him to face the consequences of his past in isolation. The only real anchor in his days is his estranged daughter Carly, someone he hasn't spoken to since his arrest more than a decade ago. As he grapples with guilt, trust, and the hard work of rebuilding, memories resurface, testing whether forgiveness is possible and whether family ties can weather long separations. The show keeps its focus tight, letting breathless silences carry weight.

Directed by Luke Snellin and created by William Mager, Reunion is a 2025 original drama about a man reentering life after prison. It foregrounds the struggle to belong across divided communities and a fragile bond with his daughter Carly. The series emphasizes tense conversations, the costs of miscommunication, and the slow pace of healing as Daniel confronts past choices and the consequences they bear on others.

Reception has been mixed so far, with a 6.625 out of 10 average based on eight votes. Viewers debate pacing and tone, while the show leans into reintegration, guilt, and the strain of reclaiming family ties in a world that weighs judgment.

As of now Reunion has not received major awards or nominations. Its early visibility rests on the performances and its portrait of a man wrestling with consequences of his past. The ensemble cast has drawn attention for its grounded, humane portrayal.

Having Rose Ayling-Ellis in the cast as Miri adds authentic Deaf representation and subtle commentary on voice and respect within communities. The show may influence conversations around reintegration and kinship by putting disability and deaf culture at the center of a tense family drama.
