'''''Early Edition''''' is an American [[Fantasy television|fantasy]] [[comedy-drama]] television series that aired on [[CBS]] from September 28, 1996, to May 27, 2000. Set in Chicago, Illinois, it follows the adventures of a man who mysteriously receives each ''[[Chicago Sun-Times]]'' newspaper the day before it is actually published, and who uses this knowledge to prevent terrible events every day. Created by Ian Abrams, Patrick Q. Page, and Vik Rubenfeld, the series starred actor [[Kyle Chandler]] as Gary Hobson, and it featured many real Chicago locations over the course of the series' run.

The show was canceled on May 27, 2000, after 90 episodes were made, and it began airing in syndication on [[Freeform (TV channel)#Fox Family (1998–2001)|Fox Family Channel]] that same month. Fan conventions about the show were held for multiple years. [[CBS Home Entertainment]] released the first two seasons on the DVD format in the United States in 2008 and 2009.

== Plot summary ==
The show chronicles the life of Gary Hobson, a resident of Chicago, Illinois, who mysteriously receives the ''[[Chicago Sun-Times]]'' newspaper a day in advance, effectively giving him knowledge of the potential future. His newspaper is delivered by a mysteriously unknown entity at least once each day, and is accompanied by a ginger [[tabby cat]], with the first copy arriving every morning at 6:30&nbsp;a.m., no matter what his physical location is. Armed with knowledge of the future, he then tries to prevent tragedies described in "tomorrow's" ''Sun-Times'' from occurring, thus changing the story text and headlines in the newspaper to reflect the outcome of his actions. Often, Gary does not wish to be saddled with the responsibility of performing these deeds. The paper presents him with many [[Dilemma|moral dilemmas]] where he must choose between helping different people in need of assistance.

[[File:Early Edition.jpg|thumb|left|The leading cast: [[Kyle Chandler]], [[Shanésia Davis-Williams]] and [[Fisher Stevens]]]]
The first season begins by showing Gary coming home from his job as a stockbroker, only to be thrown out of the house (and later divorced) for no apparent reason by his wife Marsha. Upon taking up residence in the Blackstone Hotel, Gary begins receiving a copy of the ''Chicago Sun-Times'', accompanied by "The Cat", every morning. Slowly, Gary realizes the paper's contents reflect events that are to happen during that day, and confers with his co-workers and friends Chuck Fishman (a former fellow stockbroker) and Marissa Clark (the blind former receptionist at the brokerage). After deciding to use his knowledge of the future only for "good," Gary is soon consumed by trying to prevent tragedies and help people, leading him to quit his job. During the season, Chuck consistently tries to use "The Paper" to make money, while Gary develops a precarious relationship with police Detective Marion Zeke Crumb. By the season's end, Gary has begun to uncover some of the mystery surrounding the paper, including confirmation that a man named Lucius Snow received the paper from the cat before him.

Season two continues Gary's adventures with the paper and his friends. Detective Crumb sometimes joins Gary, Chuck, and Marissa after retiring from the police force. Gary is working part-time at McGinty's as a bartender. Despite being closer to the paper, Crumb does not want to know how Gary gets his so-called "hunches," and never learns of the paper. At the end of season two, Chuck (Fisher Stevens) leaves the show as a regular character, leading to some major changes in season three. 

Within the course of the series, Gary discovers that a few other people share his gift of receiving a prophetic newspaper. The only people who know about his gift besides Chuck and Marissa are his parents, Meredith Carson, and Erica and Henry Paget, a single mother and her son (Gary gives Erica a job at McGinty's); several times he begins to tell a few people, such as his attorney, and various police officers (Episode 407/408, "Fatal Edition"), but ultimately changes his mind. On some occasions, he is given the ability to wake up in another time (such as in the early 20th century) to change the past. People who encounter Gary often strongly suspect (or know) that he has a secret, but do not know what it is, e.g. Crumb.
During the course of the series, it is never clearly stated where the paper comes from. In one episode, Gary meets the group of people apparently responsible for giving him (as well as others) the Paper. Nothing much is revealed about them except that they have some sort of supernatural abilities, such as being able to mysteriously appear at any location.

In season four, episode 20, "Time" (the [[series finale]] that aired a few episodes early), it is briefly explained why Gary started receiving the paper. Apparently, he was given the responsibility by Lucius Snow (the man who received the ''Chicago Sun-Times'' before Gary), after Snow saved Gary's life when Gary was a child. The responsibility is represented by a pocketknife imprinted with the initials of the person next to receive the paper (Lucius gave Gary the red [[Swiss Army knife]]). The initials mysteriously change every time the current person decides on a new person to receive the responsibility. At the end of the same episode, Gary passes on the same pocketknife to a young girl named Lindsey Romick who had just lost her grandfather, and it is implied that Lindsey will begin receiving the paper when Gary is no longer able to carry on the responsibilities.

=== Supporting characters ===
Chuck was a [[foil (literature)|foil]] to Gary, being a somewhat cynical, wisecracking realist in contrast to Gary's growing idealism. In early episodes, Chuck seeks to parlay the advance knowledge provided by the newspaper into windfall profits (e.g., sports betting and stock-market '[[insider trading]]'). Over time, however, he begins to take a role in helping and backing up Gary as a problem-solver.

Marissa often was the voice of reasonable conscience, balancing Gary's earnest idealism against Chuck's skeptical realism. Chuck also did the [[voice over]] narration at the opening and closing scenes of the episodes in season one, but this role would diminish during season two, save for a few episodes. Instead a standard line was used during opening credits, and a closing narration remained in a few episodes, but as season three progressed there was no narration for either the opening or closing scenes, and the episodes "Walk Don't Run" and "Deadline" had fictional ''Chicago Sun-Times'' columnist Molly Greene do the closing narration as part of her column.

Stevens's departure from the show after two seasons changed the dynamic of the show. The device of his voice-over narration was shifted to at first Gary and then Marissa in season three. This was eventually done away with, the theme music was changed, and there began a revolving door of foils for Gary, including Patrick Quinn ([[Billie Worley]]) and Erica Paget ([[Kristy Swanson]]). The latter had a romantic subplot with Gary. Stevens made several guest appearances on the show after leaving, and several of the characters stayed (such as the hard-boiled detective Crumb, and Gary's bartender Patrick).

===Guest stars===
During the series' run, ''Early Edition'' also featured many notable guest stars from television, feature films, and other entertainment industries.

Notable TV actors who appeared include [[Anna Chlumsky]], [[Fyvush Finkel]], [[Felicity Huffman]], [[Ken Jenkins]], [[Jane Krakowski]], [[Laura Leighton]], [[Robert Duncan McNeil]], [[Cynthia Nixon]], [[Pauley Perrette]], [[Robert Picardo]] and [[Michael Shannon]].

[[Academy Award]] winner [[Louis Gossett, Jr]] had a major role in the season two episode "The Medal".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0568478|title="Early Edition" The Medal (1996)|access-date=2010-06-16|publisher=Internet Movie Database}}</ref>

Former ''[[Chicago Sun-Times]]'' publisher [[David Radler]] appeared several times as the publisher of the ''Sun-Times'', the newspaper that was delivered to Gary, while movie reviewer [[Roger Ebert]] made a cameo as himself. Other cameos include [[Tara Lipinski]], [[Coolio]], [[Tone Loc]], [[Dick Butkus]], [[Pat O'Brien (television)|Pat O'Brien]], and [[Martina McBride]].

There was a season two cross-over with ''[[Chicago Hope]]'' with [[Héctor Elizondo]], [[Jayne Brook]] and [[Rocky Carroll]] playing their characters from that show. Also during season three, CBS used an ''Early Edition'' episode as a promotional vehicle for the network's ''[[Martial Law (TV series)|Martial Law]]'' TV series starring martial arts expert [[Sammo Hung]].  In the fourth and final season, professional wrestlers [[Tommy Dreamer]] and [[New Jack]] guest starred in the episode "Mel Schwartz, Bounty Hunter". A season two episode ended with a colorized clip of [[Rod Serling]] informing viewers they had just watched a tale from ''[[The Twilight Zone (1959 TV series)|The Twilight Zone]]''.

==Production==

===Conception===
The origin of ''Early Edition'' stems from a collaborative idea between writers Vik Rubenfeld and Pat Page.<ref name="creation">{{cite web |url=http://geocities.com/eeextraedition/sept98/features.htm  |title=Creating Early Edition |access-date=2008-03-25 |last=Rubenfeld |first=Vik |date=1998-09-25 |publisher=Extra Edition |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20091026183517/http://geocities.com/eeextraedition/sept98/features.htm |archive-date = 2009-10-26}}</ref> After meeting each other while playing volleyball in [[Manhattan Beach, California]], the pair began discussing ideas for feature films.<ref name="creation"/> While talking on the phone one day, they each contributed key parts for the idea of ''Early Edition''. Rubenfeld believed the idea was more suited to television than a feature film, noting that, "it was a really unique way to put a character in physical jeopardy each week."<ref name="creation"/> The duo proceeded to write a document that described the show's characters and setting, and treatments for the first twelve episodes (a document known as a show's "[[Bible (writing)|bible]]" in the TV industry).<ref name="creation"/> In the process they also created a detailed treatment for the [[pilot episode]], which entitled them to "Story By" credit when the Pilot later aired.

Despite their idea, Rubenfeld and Page still faced the daunting task of finding a way to get the show on network television with limited television production and writing experience between them. Rubenfeld decided to pitch the show to Ian Abrams, who he knew through a group called the [[Professional Authors Group Enterprise]] (PAGE).<ref name="creation"/> Over lunch at RJ's restaurant in Los Angeles, Rubenfeld and Page pitched the idea of "a guy who gets tomorrow's newspaper today."<ref name="creation"/><ref name="abrams">{{cite web |url=http://geocities.com/eelfestnews/page3  |title=Ian Abrams: Co-Creator for Early Edition |access-date=2008-03-05 |year=2001 |publisher=EELFEST News |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20091027004215/http://geocities.com/eelfestnews/page3 |archive-date = 2009-10-27}}</ref> With Abrams's help, they decided to try to convince Tristar to pick up the show, and went about adding a few ground rules for the story, such as having the paper always accompanied by a mysterious cat.<ref name="abrams"/> In an effort to rouse Tristar's interest in the show during their pitch meeting scheduled for August 24, 1995, Abrams had a mock newspaper created with the headline "Let's just let it end. [[O. J. Simpson]] confesses he is guilty of homicide."<ref name="abrams"/> The catch to the mock newspaper was that it was dated the next day, August 25, 1995. After presenting the fake newspaper during the pitch meeting, a very lively conversation ensued, until someone realized the paper was dated the following day. ''Early Edition'' was green-lighted not long after.

Since its debut, the plot of ''Early Edition'' has been compared to other intellectual properties with similar themes. In particular, the 1944 feature film ''[[It Happened Tomorrow]]'' centered upon a newspaper reporter who received a newspaper a day in advance.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0036962/ |title=It Happened Tomorrow (1944) |access-date=2008-05-21 |publisher=Internet Movie Database}}</ref> However, ''Early Edition''{{'}}s creators claim that ''Early Edition'' is in no way based on this film.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://earlydues.usanethosting.com/ee/faq/eefaq2.htm#2dot7 |title=Is "Early Edition" based on that old movie about a newspaper? |access-date=2008-05-21 |date=2000-12-03 |publisher=EarlyDues' Early Edition}}</ref>

===Filming locations===
The series was filmed in Chicago and many nearby towns in Illinois and Indiana, with interior sets filmed on the Early Edition Sound Stage at Studio City in [[Chicago]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://earlydues.usanethosting.com/ee/faq/eefaq2.htm#2dot3 |title=Where is it filmed or set? |access-date=2008-03-24 |date=2000-12-03 |publisher=EarlyDues' Early Edition}}</ref> Many famous Chicago locations are seen throughout the series, such as [[Navy Pier]] in the season three episode "Play it Again, Sammo." The building used for exterior shots of McGinty's bar, a location of central importance to the series, was formerly used by the [[Chicago Fire Department]], and is located at the northeast corner of the intersection of Franklin Street and West Illinois Street in downtown Chicago.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://earlydues.usanethosting.com/ee/faq/eefaq2.htm#2dot19 |title=What and where is McGinty's?  |access-date=2008-03-24 |date=2000-12-03 |publisher=EarlyDues' Early Edition}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&q=228+W+Illinois+Street,+Chicago,+IL&sll=41.891099,-87.633358&sspn=0.001513,0.002511&layer=c&ie=UTF8&cbll=41.890763,-87.635391&cbp=1,11.075365584055646,,0,-4.347954778453811&ll=41.891075,-87.635627&spn=0.001513,0.002511&z=19 |title=290 W Illinois St |access-date=2008-03-24   |publisher=Google Maps}}</ref>  Additionally, Hobson lived in the [[Blackstone Hotel]] during the show's first season.<ref name=GPswsbeaGm>{{cite web|url=http://www.nearwestgazette.com/Archive/2008/0308/News0308e.htm |title=Grant Park street wall, surrounding buildings examined at GPAC meeting |access-date=2008-04-07 |publisher=nearwestgazette.com |author=Carlton, Hayley |url-status=usurped |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080621000519/http://www.nearwestgazette.com/Archive/2008/0308/News0308e.htm |archive-date=2008-06-21 }}</ref>

===Music===
In the opening credits of each episode, the credit for composing ''Early Edition's'' title theme music is given to [[W.G. Walden|W.G. Snuffy Walden]], who later wrote the theme song to another hit TV show starring Kyle Chandler, ''[[Friday Night Lights (TV series)|Friday Night Lights]]''.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://earlydues.usanethosting.com/ee/faq/eefaq8.htm#8dot1 |title=Who composes the theme music used on Early Edition? |access-date=2008-05-21 |date=2002-07-21 |publisher=EarlyDues' Early Edition}}</ref> During ''Early Edition's'' original broadcast run in the United States, an edited version of the song "Time Has Come Today" by [[The Chambers Brothers]] was used during a revamped opening title sequence from episode 403 until the series' conclusion.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://earlydues.usanethosting.com/ee/faq/eefaq8.htm#8dot3 |title=What's with the new theme music? |access-date=2008-05-21 |date=2002-07-21 |publisher=EarlyDues' Early Edition}}</ref>

== Broadcast history ==
