Flash Forward starring Ben Foster and Jewel Staite (of Firefly/Serenity/Stargate: Atlantis fame)
"Flash Forward" was a U.S./Canadian co-production that aired on both ABC/The Disney Channel in the mid-‘90s.  It has a cult following and lasted for 26 1/2 episodes.  With the recent news of you acquiring "Blossom" (also from Disney) and Shout! Factory's outstanding treatment of one season wonders, I would love to see you tackle this one.  It also had an unusually large recurring cast and production crew behind it.  In addition to Jewel Staite, there are two other people who would go on to the "Stargate" franchise: Amanda Tapping had a hilarious recurring role as "Miss Yansouni" and writer Robert C. Cooper, who wrote my favorite episode of the entire series, "Presents". (I would love an audio commentary by Robert, Ben, Jewel, and director Ron Oliver, who appears in this episode as "Mike Miller").
I hope this Disney property is a possibility for you.  And I can't wait when "Sports Night" finally arrives in the mail.  Thank you again Shout! Factory for revisiting it.

Don't know what happened to the font there... sorry about that Shout! Factory.

"Flash Forward" was a U.S./Canadian co-production that aired on both ABC/The Disney Channel in the mid-‘90s.  It has a cult following and lasted for 26 half-hour episodes.  With the recent news of you acquiring "Blossom" (also from Disney) and Shout! Factory's outstanding treatment of one season wonders, I would love to see you tackle this one.  It also had an unusually large recurring cast and production crew behind it.  In addition to Jewel Staite, there are two other people who would go on to the "Stargate" franchise: Amanda Tapping had a hilarious recurring role as "Miss Yansouni" and writer Robert C. Cooper, who wrote my favorite episode of the entire series, "Presents".

I agree, "Flash Forward" is worth investigating.
