Flash Forward

**Kilhart** · 2009-11-13 00:48

I found the plot of the original book to be a lot more intriguing than this drawn out bullshit.

It's getting very annoying seeing how blindly the characters will follow their flashforward and how dumbfounded they are when they realize things can be changed.

The scene near the end when Benford came home to his wife was terrible. Seemed way too confident that he changed his future. Then again, most of their scenes together suck.

Yeah the first two episodes of this show really interested me but after that last one.. I done with this show.

Just started reading the book this morning. Pretty good so far. Interesting to see the character similarities between the book and the show.

I'm still confused where the army girl came from. I kept thinking the guy was hallucinating and thinking he was seeing her til he showed the cop the cell picture. I know she said she was hiding, but she just showed up out of nowhere and made me think I missed something last week.

That's what I was thinking, had to go back and watch the episode before to see if there was something to preface her random arrival.

Production on hold. Guess this is what happens when you deviate away from the actual meat of the plot and concentrate too much on boring subplots (dad and the daughter in the army)

I think they got the message in the form of dropping ratings. This is supposedly a planned production stop to work on the writing of the show.

I am honestly getting tired of ABC this season. They keep unveiling new 1 hr sci-fi-ish dramas as huge, amazing and "ABC Studios" productions. So far they canned their first show(defying gravity), flash forward might be slipping meanwhile ABC is putting all it's efforts into V now.

But, I just learned a few days ago that Scrubs is coming back again(I just assumed it was cancelled). After being re-tooled every other episode last season, now the originals are gone so it will surely repeat the process this year.

The network and the producers have said from the onset that this is a one season show. They had no plans when they started of continuing past just the one season, so unless they change their minds amid shaky ratings, the show will have a definite end.

Previews for this episode today looked good. Please don't disappoint me

**Insanecyclone** · 2009-12-03 21:03

Most of the originals will be back actually, just in more secondary roles. I agree though that it probably won't do well.

As far as FlashForward, it looks like I have 3 months to catch up. With this show I think killing the spring repeats and just doing all new episodes like they're doing will help see it through to the end.

**Tomiko** · 2009-12-11 10:24

Just finished reading the book. Loved the detail in the ending. Hate the show now cause of 1 major part (of the show) I can't see them explaining: Why Charlie (Dominick) didn't black out. After reading the reasoning for the blackout in the book, I don't see any way for them to explain it.

I'll probably still watch the show since there's not much else I watch, but I won't care if I miss it anymore.

**Norellicus** · 2009-12-11 10:51

Er, do we know for sure Dominic didn't black out?

I don't recall him ever mentioning it, just that he knows about it/designed it/whatever

**Null** · 2009-12-11 11:42

He saw a flash forward so I doubt it was him.

**Tomiko** · 2009-12-11 15:45

Well, whoever it was then in the stadium.

**Null** · 2009-12-11 16:44

Btw, I love how he is always referred to as Charlie.

I liked it a lot.

I had all but given up on the show since the first half of the season was horrible imo, but the new episode made me interested again.

**Lyn** · 2010-03-19 21:11

Oh poo, I missed it.

WHATEVA, V COMES BACK ON THE 30TH BITCHES!
