Flash Forward

I used to love this show. I thought Becca was the coolest character on television, and Tucker reminded me of my best friend. The story line has been done a thousand times, but it was fun. Tucker and Becca grew up next door to each other and were best friends since infancy. Their relationship was sweet and everyone should have a best friend like that. Of course, the material covered was far from ground-breaking, but my sisters and I loved it as kids, and that was the point. Disney Channel always provides nice after-school type shows for pre-teens, and this show was no exception. This was a great show for tweens and, I will admit, I would probably watch the reruns today...

When I was about the same age as the characters in the show, I watched "Flash Forward"... and loved it. It was real. The characters really feel like people at your own school, people you might be friends with. Or at least people you'd like to be friends with.

Even though it was in general a lot lighter and frothier than actual middle school, there was enough realism to make it convincing. Jewel Staite is absolutely incredible and continues to fascinate and amaze with her talent.

The stories were fun, and some of the dialogue was really incredible, particularly for what is considered a 'youth' show. I hope someday there are more young shows of this caliber.

Now if I can just get this on DVD!

In Canada, where I live, we only started getting "flash forward" last year on the Family channel. The first time I saw the show, I remember making fun of my sister and her friend for watching something like that. Now, I never miss an episode, even if I have to tape it. And I like it because, one day they show the old episodes and the next they show the newer ones.

Flash Forward was,for me,one of the best written and performed teen shows ever.Now I am 39,and did not come across the show till 1998 and by that time it was long out of production.I can only recall one or two episodes that were just ok but otherwise this was fantastic!Jewel,Ben, Asia and Theo were so great and played the roles like you know people like them.The supporting cast was just as great,there are so many to name,but they were wonderful. The guest part Caterina Scrosone had as "Darby" was,in a word,perfect.Why it was just one episode,we will never know.She was the perfect sidekick for Tucker.Disney has tried many shows since then,but had they kept this fine show in production,we could have had Flash Foward the movie rather than Lizzie McGuire.

Well I remember when Disney aired a marathon of the show back in '96 and my little sister and I watched every one of them and especially loved "Dog Day After Lunch." As usual, the show went on hiatus so the re-runs bored us and I lost touch up until around the time it got cancelled. LUCKILY, they re-aired the episodes in syndication and i got recorded every single one of them on tape....my favorite episode was on a tape that broke, though. When becca, max, and christine get locked out of becca's house... Anyway, I watch the episodes whenever I have time and they're still hilarious! I'de quote a few lines but, of course, i'd come off weird...er :-) Great show. Ben Foster's on Six Feet Under and I last saw Becca (Jewel) on the debut episode of Huff on Showtime. Havne't seen anyone else, though...but then again they were mostly Canadian so they're probably being shown on a few more things up there...
