Who's "Kerry"?


* NakedPeopleAreFunny: Tucker can't seem to keep his clothes on. In the first episode, a bully shoves him out of the locker room and into the hallway while he's wearing a ModestyTowel. At that moment, the bell rings and students (including Kerry) file out of the classrooms. The towel drops and everyone laughs at him. The fact that he was holding a basketball at the time leads to jokes about Tucker's "basketballs". Another episode had him sneaking around the school in his underwear. A struggle with one of the teachers leads to the underwear being torn off and he streaks through the halls to the computer lab where his friends are. Another one of his teachers catches up with him and he ends up getting photographed by the yearbook photographer.

For the Creator/{{ABC}} series with the same name, go over to ''Series/FlashForward2009'' (though this one ''did'' air on ABC saturday mornings in the 1996-97 season as a preview-run, as Disney had just acquired ABC). No real relation to the [[FlashForward trope of the same name]].
