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...
Yep. I was flipping through the channels when I caught a sight of Flash Forward. I watched it for a couple of seconds and bam! I was hooked. I started to watch it everyday and it turned out to be a really cool show. It was funny and entertaining, and I was disappointed to see it canceled. Oh well, some of the actors are really making names for themselves now...
The summary says it all, folks. Some of the episodes are amazing, while others are so-so. A few are garbage. Nearly every episode, however, is played beautifully. Ben Foster and Jewel Stait fit perfectly into their roles, and they have the personality to pull off monologues directly to the camera, á la Ferris Bueller and Malcolm In The Middle.
If you see an episode (I believe that they are still played occasionally on the Disney Channel) I highly recommend watching it.

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.
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!
