Time of Your Life was a wonderful Party of Five spin-off, that followed Sarah Reeves Merrin ( played by Jennifer Love Hewitt), who left her long-time boyfriend Bailey in San Francisco to search for her birth father in New York. There, she moved into her mother's old apartment and met new friends. Romy (Jennifer Garner) her actress rommate, Cecilia (Pauley Perrette) her landlord, Mag (Jonathon Schaech) the guy who works in the music store across the street and her sometimes boyfriend, Joss (Gina Ravera) her co-worker at a bar and Mag's "friend with benefits", and J.B (Diego Serrano) the man that lives in the building across from theirs and Romy's sometimes boyfriend. Sarah decided to stay in New York and tried to start her new life there. Jennifer Love Hewitt won the 2000 People's Choice Award for best female performer in new television series for her role in Time of Your Life.moreless
This is just a fabulous show that had a female lead without having super strength i.e.: Wonder Woman, Xena and Buffy that lead us into her feelings of finding her father in the big apple trying to fill in the wholes she has left open. I loved Sarah Reeves because she was funny, smart, elegant and just that she never tried to follow the trends that was around her and that's one thing I loved about her. When it was finally canceled by FOX I was truly upset to see this great series go I know if it was brought back now I would say it would do better than it did back in 1999 because I think people back than didn't really have an open feeling about these things but now due to The OC I think it would have a huge chance of surviving in the ratings.moreless
