I LOVE THIS SHOW, PERIOD!
Big fan from the UK here … and i agree, definately a good thing that it’ll be a continuous showing from March.
The story hopefully as promised be a bit more fast paced, with more sci-fi – but then again, the balance so far is okay.
C’mon Flashforward – you can do it!
Boo Hiss! I quite liked this show… I am HUGE fan of LOST, and this helped fill the void until their new season begins. We weren’t counted either (DVR). Probably won’t be around in March–my interest will be “Lost” by then! Guess I will just read the book…
Typical ABC train wreck, just like “Defying Gravity”, and the ‘hiatus’ (or rather “hate us”) that they’ve ruined “V” with. Some dweeb at corporate must take sadistic delight in ‘keeping fans in suspense’, but it doesnt work. When Flash Forward comes back they will be lucky to have 6 million viewers, and it will plummet after that; it simply wont be back for any ‘Season 2′. I thought it was the best dramatic series on network television, but stopping for three months for no good reason shows total disrespect for the fans; and “V” is in the same boat. After ABC trashed its integrity by cancelling “Defying Gravity” in the middle of the season, a lot of us were ready to block ABC on our cable lineups, but FF and V inspired us to give ‘the meatball network’ a second chance. Well, after getting FF for three months, we can see how well they respect the fans. Goodbye, ABC; thanks for the Flush Forward…
I am horrified that this show is taking leave and being criticized so harshly. Let me be clear. I DO NOT watch TV. anything else I’ve seen is brain dead drivel, it is not worth my time. I can’t watch anything without feeling like I should be doing something, and most times am walking about catching snips of it. Flashforward has me mesmorized. I am on the edge of my seat each week for the next episode. I think of all of the layers and pieces inbetween. I don’t WANT obvious, I don’t WANT fast resolution. I would watch TV if it were like this. Let the rest of the people watch their idiot sitcoms and reality shows…give the rest of us SOMETHING.
Great show. The last 2 eps were the 2 best. Show is getting better and better, as any sci-fi mystery show should. I wish it was on every week, instead of this big break. Hope A-N-T-I-C-I-P-A-T-I-O-N is worth the wait and doesn’t kill the show.
Loved the show at the start, couldn’t wait till the next week. Then it started – just like most of the good ones go – Half an hour spent on repeating past shows to bring you up to speed, then 20 min’s of commericals and only about 10 of the thing you were waiting for all week – bummer. now with this break! It’s broke for me, I’ll find something else to watch.
Here’s the bad news for FlashForward: I like it. That’s the kiss of death for any TV series. I want to apologize to all involved. But, in line with other shows I liked, such as Journeyman and Nine, this one is doomed. At least I got to see a real closure on the Fugitive. I think that was the last time.
I do not watch TV, but just bumped into this show on Boxee (which I was just testing out) and I have to say, It completely got me hooked. I actually watched all 10 episodes in the last two days and am going to make this the one show I watch come March…
Strange, but I thought this series was supposed to be in almost “real-time”. To me, that was part of the appeal. For example, when it was around Halloween, it was Halloween on the show. I take it that the original idea was that the “Flashforward” date of April 29th 2010 is when the 2nd series would have reached some sort of conclusion? Now that the second season will be completely out of synch, that surely is a warnming sign that this show might not make it – if it begins in March it will end mid-June and the “Flashforward” date of April 29th will be on Episode 6? I’m wondering if only 6 episodes will air……..
The fact that this has not been mentioned AT ALL in this interview pretty much confirms that ABC have changed tack with this show due to low ratings. I will stick with it though, I think it is still a good show.
Reading the second answer in the interview again, I’m thinking that Season 2 could still be ending on the Flashforward day of April 29th 2010 – especially if the ratings don’t recover (so just 6 or 7 episodes).
if they didnt take so long to air it again id still be interested me n ma dad loved it but its a load of crap taking this long to air it again they will lose so many interested people after that they should have just tried another channel…
Flash Forward is brilliant. So is LOST. I think people who expect every second to be to their liking do not understand how well these are written. I love every minute, every second of each of these dramas. If anyone can write any better out there get on with it and stop criticising such wonderful dramas.
why cant we all just love lost v and flashforward theyre just an hour long its not hard to watch all three
