Leap Years

This show has one of the more original premise attached to it, five friends and their relationship over 15 years, only it is presented to us as a series of flash forwards and flashbacks from 1993 to 2001 to 2008. The show itself is somewhat weak in that the characters are generally stereotypes (the whiny rich Jewish guy, the diva who becomes a victim of her ego and greed, the arty gay guy, the poor kid who makes good only to become what he used to despise) but the actors do a fairly good job of fleshing them out. The plots can be a tad confusing if you are just catching an episode with all the jumps forward and back, but once you catch a couple of episodes things become clear.
