Television - Reunion

own worst enemy · 06-26-2005, 08:34 PM

Reunion - Thursdays @ 9 on Fox, this fall.

Quote:

Part character drama and part mystery, REUNION marks a groundbreaking concept in series television as it chronicles the lives of a group of six friends over the course of 20 years – all in just one season. From the hopes and dreams of 18-year-olds to the realities that irrevocably mark those lives two decades later, REUNION ’s stories are of love and loss, marriage and death, triumph and scandal. WILL (Will Estes, “U-571,” “American Dreams”) longs to leave his small town behind. Aided by an athletic scholarship, he will be the first in his family to go to college. CRAIG (Sean Faris, “Life As We Know It”), handsome and privileged, looks forward to the Ivy League with his girlfriend, SAMANTHA (Alexa Davalos, “The Chronicles of Riddick”), whose ambition is surpassed only by her looks and intelligence. The beautiful and sensual JENNA (Amanda Righetti, THE O.C.) dreams of becoming an actress; behind his cynicism, AARON (Dave Annable, “Little Black Book”) dreams that his relationship with Jenna will go beyond friendship. CARLA (Chyler Leigh, “Not Another Teen Movie”), innocent and quirky, must choose between loyalty to her father and staying near her best friends. REUNION opens in 2005 at the funeral of one of the friends, whose death is being investigated by DETECTIVE MARJORINO (Mathew St. Patrick, “Six Feet Under”). Before the identity of the deceased is revealed, we’re transported back to 1986, as the group is celebrating their high school graduation. The pilot episode follows all six through the summer of 1986, and we witness the formative events that alter their dreams and desires forever. Episode two finds the group a full year later, in 1987; episode three tells the story of a seminal event in 1988, and so on – culminating in the season finale at the friends’ 20th high school reunion. REUNION also will build toward answering two important questions raised in episode one: Which of the friends is dead? And how did that death occur?

i'm really excited about this show. but it's in a terrible time slot and will be clobbered by CSI.

own worst enemy · 06-26-2005, 08:56 PM

See ... I like the whole concept, but I feel like it's too advanced for Fox.

SassMouth · 06-26-2005, 09:25 PM

yes from the people that brought you "who wants to marry a midget" to this show

who knows, it sounds really cool, so lets keep our fingers crossed that it does well.

own worst enemy · 06-26-2005, 09:30 PM

Then again ... the whole idea of every episode being a year ... I don't know. That is not going to be easy to adjust to. And I mean, does it just end after S1?

SassMouth · 06-26-2005, 09:54 PM

i guess so..and what about the person who dies? when do we find out who it is? so many questions

isn't going to be expensive going to a different year every eppie, i mean they have to wear clothing that fits with the time period and cars and music also will change dramtically from one show to the next.

own worst enemy · 06-26-2005, 09:58 PM

Yeah ... that's what I'm worried about.

SassMouth · 06-26-2005, 10:02 PM

you made an avie change

very nice. we will just have to wait and see how it's all going to fit together. have you seen any sort of video or ads for it yet? or is it to early?

own worst enemy · 06-26-2005, 10:08 PM

I saw an ad on Fox, during a rerun of 'The O.C.' ... and it seems cool, but the concept doesn't seem like one Fox will stand behind. Plus, I can't see the show having a future.

It seems like Desperate Housewives and Veronica Mars had an impact with the new TV season.

SassMouth · 06-26-2005, 10:18 PM

someones having trouble deciding what avie to use

i'm going to keep my eyes peeled for any sort of ad on FOX

SassMouth · 06-26-2005, 10:25 PM

off to bed. Night

own worst enemy · 06-26-2005, 10:34 PM

Night.

Nah, I'm sticking with this one.

mysocalledlife · 06-27-2005, 01:30 AM

i'm very excited about this one, great concept and great cast, can't wait to see it.

SassMouth · 06-27-2005, 10:37 AM

Mr. Brightside: i like that one too

*Stacy* · 06-27-2005, 11:18 AM

I think this show looks pretty interesting and will be checking it out. I don't watch CSI, so its got my vote.
