Not to mention the very similar Canadian series Being Erica. Hindsight reminds me of a feel good John Hughes film from the ‘80s mixed with 13 Going on 30 and Big. Not only that, the show has an addictive quality which makes me a little sad it’s not on Netflix to binge watch. The characters were believable and enjoyable to watch with charismatic actors stepping in to play the parts. I found the script funny and emotional with a lot of heart. However, it should make for a fun series. Should she go through with the wedding to a man she obviously still loves and give it a second chance? Or should she make a different choice? You find out what direction she takes by the end of the episode, but I won’t give it away. But here, she has a new choice to make (with the help of her once best friend Lolly – who now STILL gets to be her best friend because this is years before their quarrel). But he’s also moody and insecure, which causes them to eventually divorce years later. He’s charming, sexy and obviously very in love with her. It’s in the past we learn just how much Becca was in love with her first husband, Sean. Before you know it, Becca falls asleep on the elevator and wakes up in the past. With doubts about her own life, she bumps into a nice guy on the streets who quotes an old Buddhist proverb about accepting your life in the present. Then there’s the whole fact that she hasn’t talked to her best friend Lolly in ten years over a quarrel. In the present, she is divorced from her handsome first husband and is now marrying the nice guy she grew up with while her mother talks about her behind her back. Hindsight tells the story of Becca, who on the eve of her second wedding, travels back in time twenty years to 1995 on the morning of her first wedding. VH1’s new time traveling romantic dramedy Hindsight takes you on a fun, nostalgic trip to the ‘90s asking a simple question: What would you do if you could travel back in time and do it all over? Would you make the same choices? Or would you make different ones creating a whole new path for your life? In short, what makes this show a success is that besides being very entertaining with fun pop culture throwbacks is that it makes you look at your own life wondering “what if?” ![]() THE SETUP: Becca goes back in time 20 years to 1995 to the morning of her first wedding. ![]() ![]() THE CAST: Laura Ramsey, Sarah Goldberg, Craig Horner, John Patrick Amedori
