@@CamyNolasco so was I! It was a miracle I got to see the show at all, my parents went out for dinner so I got to watch whatever I wanted. By some miracle, I was flipping stations right when it started. I didn’t move a muscle the entire time it was on. My 9 year old self sobbed right along with Jesse while she shoved chocolate cake in her mouth and I even cried myself to sleep when it was over. The absolute worst thing about seeing it was that none of my friends had. There was so much I was desperate to discuss but had no one to talk about it with. Since they hadn’t seen it they just didn’t get it. It was the first time my 9 year old heart really felt broken. Over 20 years ago, while standing in line at a Walgreens next to a bargain bin of dvds, I was just flipping through to kill time and all the sudden there the movie was. It was like, the skies opened up and angels started singing. My heart was racing with excitement -I canceled my plans and sped straight home to watch it for the first time since that night so long ago. I never thought I’d see it again and the rush of euphoria was incredible. I was 9 all over again for an hour and a half (or so), lol, I just had to give my 3 year one of her bday presents early so she’d be distracted and content as well. I moved 3 years ago and it got lost in the move… I’m still kind of pissed about that.

This movie aired on my 13th birthday n that day I got to choose what to watch on TV n of course I chose Rex Smith. My first crush. He became what I would choose as my type of ideal sexy man for the rest of my life. Blue eyed blond men with long hair. It's nice to watch Sooner or Later at 54 n still get those feelings you did at 13. He still makes my heart flutter. Thank you Rex Smith .. for reminding us what innocent love feels like.

i was 11 years old and watched as they were filming at cross county shopping center, yonkers, ny, in front of gimbels, which became sears, then macy's currently. i was also present when they filmed the scene when rex and the chick were driving down a street. you see a big church at the end. that was my parish st. john the baptist church on yonkers ave and my elementary school right next door. i was on my bike following that car as they filmed. they also filmed at my local park, tibbett's brook park. i was so starstruck at the time. nice memory of my youth and neighborhood.
