Our latest episode looks at the history and making of the Early Edition (https://web.archive.org/web/20061031125154/http://www.jumptheshark.com/e/earlyedition.htm) TV series (https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/71112-early-edition-general-discussion/), and how a simple idea about tomorrow’s newspaper became one of CBS’s strangest 90s hits (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_Edition).
What started as a clever pitch about one bloke getting the next day’s news quickly turned into a Saturday night drama (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Series/EarlyEdition) with a magic newspaper, a ginger cat, and a lead character trying to stop disasters before they happened.
With early ratings success, cast changes, shifting narration, crossovers, cancellations, fan campaigns, delayed DVD releases, and a reboot that never made it past the pilot stage, Early Edition (https://web.archive.org/web/20140405134454/http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/topic/3113853-early-edition/?view=getnewpost) had a much stranger run than people remember.
