Does anyone remember this show off DK?? This was always my second favorite to Endurance. For anyone who doesn't know what it is it's basically the show Lost except with an all teenage cast (and one adult). The kids are going on a school trip in the South Pacific for research but their plane ends up crashing on a deserted island way off course. For anyone interested or for anyone who remembers this show, just YouTube Flight 29 Down Season 1! I binge watched and watched all three seasons in under a week xD
Does anyone else remember this show? Who were you favorite characters? No spoilers about the characters or the show here please, just some discussion! Don't want to give the ending away if some people haven't seen it yet. I guess it was a book too?? I should try to find it!

Oh my geez, Endurance and F29D were my LIFE! I have Flight 29 Down on DVD and I literally rewatch it once or twice a year. It honestly only gets better as you get older, because you can properly appreciate the characters and all the relationship/character development and gaah. I have such a deep well of love in my heart for Taylor, Jackson and Eric. They are so amazing and interesting in different ways. <3 Also, this is the only show that can for some reason crack me up at every, like, 2 sentences. It's the funniest show ever to me and idk why (oh and also, there's a whole series of books based off of the show  although I don't recommend the prequel because it's fairly inaccurate to how things are portrayed. :/ and the rest of them tend to stray from what happens in the show, but I enjoyed them!) |

Yeah the books are a nice read but a bit different from the show. But OMG F29D was literally my second love (after Endurance)!!! You don't understand how much I loved that show... I wrote so many fanfics about it as a 12 year old HAHAHHAHA. I'd actually have to say Taylor was my favorite. Like kwdrewfan said, she was just such a complex character that at times you wanted to hate but at times you couldn't help but love. I really appreciate the writing of the show too. Like the plots were so well laid out and everything. It was such a fantastic show.

Now...if the characters of Lost had done what Flight 29 Down had done at the series finale...hmmm...
Then again, it's my understanding that the characters on Lost had died in their crash and hadn't come to terms.

I almost forgot about it so I'm so happy I rewatched them!!! Such a good show.
I always loved Jackson, Taylor, and Lex. But the second time around I really gained a lot of respect for Daley. She really has a lot of rewarding moments in the last season and is the true reason why they all were rescued literally minutes before the typhoon. Such a good show. Definitely didn't cry or anything like that :')

Seriously, as annoying as Daley could be I gained a lot of respect for her, too. It's just her personality that rubs everyone the wrong way, but she's trying. She's genuinely trying so hard to keep everyone alive and healthy and together and omg I can't talk about the ending of season 2. I get so emotional it's ridiculous.
