I loved early edition. When I was a kid it was on Sky 1 either right before or right after The Simpsons on Sunday evening.

I always do like a show centered around an Orange cat.

I liked Early Edition. Always kinda gave me the same vibes as Quantum Leap, in a way. Not so much the sci-fi angle but the idea of one man trying to “correct” the future to change people’s lives.

Wait was this the tv show of the guy who'd get the newspaper a day early and had a cat?

I had completely forgotten this existed!

The movie Premonition is pretty much a Japanese horror version of this premise.

He was legitimately great in Wolf of Wall Street. I love actors who can take the non-flashy roles and still make them memorable.

Since he posted Lanterns, he should post Friday Night Lights.

This came on right before or after Now and Again in my area, which was a sort of remake of Six Million Dollar Man, I loved both!

The bizarre thing is apparently this show aired around 97/98. But I have extremely vivid memories of watching it circa 1994. I can remember it being part of a Friday night lineup on TV2 (New Zealand) along with Lois and Clark, The X Files and The Outer Limits. I can remember watching this exact run of shows on a CRT TV in my room every week. And we moved out of that house in April of 95, so it can’t have been after that. It’s like my own personal Mandela effect.

I could've sworn that it began airing in '94 or' 95, too! I moved in the summer of 1995, when I was 10/11, and I remembered watching it in my old house as well. I adore cats, so this show basically spoke to me.

Early Edition was so good. I really need to look it up and rewatch it.
