Anyone with any interest in films or life - WATCH AND ENJOY
1 August 2009
All the other comments have said everything I wanted to say about this seminal piece of work.

I only watched it yesterday and have already forced two other people to watch it and they also loved it and thanked me for the nudge. I'm dying to see it again already. Best film I've seen in a long time. Wish I'd discovered it 2 years ago! I'd love to work on a film with Peter Howitt, with him in either a directing, acting or writing role, as I think the guy is amazing (if you are listening, please let me edit something for you - haha).

Not sure if this film won any awards, but if not, that is a crying shame.

I have met David Barrett, the film's editor and must congratulate him on a great job also.

WATCH THIS FILM!

I agree that it's a good show. Kind of a Quantum Leap for the Naughties. I find Livia's character intriguing. How long as she been travelling through time, has she ever used her 'gift' for personal gains? How is Dan and Livia aging differently to the rest of mankind? Will His wife grow old whilst he is still in his 40's etc? Is Elliot Langley a proper good guy? Why do they have this gift? Is the commet thing a red herring? etc, etc...

This show needs at least another series to see how it does. I'm sure with the right marketing it would get more viewers.

All in all, a quality show, that although not the best on TV, certainly very good.

This show is just SO good.

Evertything is perfect. The acting, the writing, the editing. I work as a film editor, so it takes a lot to really impress me, but since finding this little gem, I've been telling everyone to watch it.

I applaud the makers for having the guts to cover topics that it's almost impossible to see in US shows, such as religion, race, sex, US foreign policy etc etc...

I never thought I would see a prime time American show do this and do it with total sincerity.

30 Rock reminds me of The Simpsons and Futurama in it's type of satirical humour. Just very, very clever and well executed comedy.

Can't wait for season 3 and urge anyone to watch this show NOW.
