In December 2021, she captioned a photo of the two of them, “This is why I stepped back in my career for a while – to raise my beautiful daughter! You don’t get those years back and I don’t regret one minute spending all my time with my baby. We were always creating anyway! Always.” The Northern Exposure cast has gotten back together a few times over the years. In 2017, Rob Morrow, Cynthia Geary, and the show’s creator Joshua Brand were interviewed by Today. Turner commented on how close they grew while filming the show in a small town in Washington. “We were away from Los Angeles. We were sheltered from Hollywood, and I think that gave us sort of a bond and naïveté and we weren’t jaded,” she said. “We just had a wonderful sort of bond from the very beginning.” In 2020—the year Northern Exposure marked its 30th anniversary—most cast members reunited for Vulture Festival. Turner, Morrow, Geary, Barry Corbin, and John Corbett all attended the virtual event. In 2018, it had been reported that the show was going to have a revival series, but it hasn’t yet come to pass.
