FlashForward
« on: September 26, 2009, 10:12:02 AM »


FlashForward @ IMDb
FlashForward @ Wikipedia

So far, this day has been like every other day. But suddenly everyone all over the world blacks out. At the exact same moment, for the exact same time: 2 minutes, 17 seconds. But they didn't simply black out, all (OK, most of them) caught a glipmse of the future, they saw themselves six months from now, on April 29th, 2010. And when they wake up again the world lays in chaos. Cars have crashed into each other, helicopters and planes have crashed, patients died on the operating table.
And the big questions are: What has happened, will it happen again and will it come true what people saw.

I'm hooked. I just watched the first episode and I really liked the premise, especially because of that last event in the episode. This could be a really great mystery show, if done right. Let's see if they do it right.

I fancy watching it, but worry it's another Lost, which I gave up on as soon as it looked to me like they were going to over-extend it...

I missed this one too.  I think I saw that the episode is online ..so I may try to catch it that way.  It does sound very interesting.

That's what I wonder about, are they gonna do this right ?.  I hope they don't turn this into a 100% Sci-Fi thing and completely put aside the human side of people having seen 6 months into the future.

I watched this last night online.
Very good show...definitely an interesting idea.  I do wonder how things will be handled...if it will be done well or just throw more of the blackouts/flashes of the future in to extend things further.
