What was what? Are you talking about the thing in the sky? I'm thinking spaceship perhaps. I've watched all the episodes and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. I just want to know how this show will go on after they reach their Flash Forwards in April 2010. B-) |

I was thinking spaceship too, but wasn't sure. Good question Gate, about reaching their flash forwards. Hope the "ol Gate curse" doesn't get them before April so we can find out. :scared: |

What did everyone think of last week's ending scene? I thought the choice of music and the editing/camera angles were fantastic! |

I agree, really impressive. I just hate it ended with the bang and now we have to wait. I really like the show, I hope it stays good. |

I am now only one behind, I was gone a week and needed to catch up on my two fav's first(mad Men and SOA). Have to say I am liking this a fair amount, especially for somone who loathes time travel, and gave up on Lost due to it. To me this is a look into the future, but not really time travel. Also, why does everyone seem to be convinced that these futures are really what will happen and not perhaps a hallucination, or just a dream? Another thing, the vast majority of us, depending on the time of the day, would be doing the same boring shit we do every day, ie, exercising, hosework, real work, watching TV, tending to families, etc. So, why is is everyone seems to have some "exciting' issue happening in 6 months? Putting all that aside, I like the cast and the writing for the most part. As far as the cast, I like "Penny" far more than "Juliet" (in V) as an actor. I always hated "Charlie" so to see him be a creep in this one is not much of a leap. So the kid's dad had something to do with the balckout, will be interesting to see how this pays out. |

Good drama moments...good character moments....so that's a plus. I do like time travel/SF so for me this is a little simplistic--at least so far. As long as the character stories are good I won't mind that at all. But if they get plot heavy they better be ready to do some serious expository analysis. The whole debate over fate VS free will playing out...the recent episode with the dude committing suicide to avoid hurting the woman in the future suggests we have free will. Unless they tackle the idea of inertia in timelines and that some scientists posit the timestream has the tendency to revert to a set pattern even when herculean efforts are made to change it. Then again, given FF's basic look at the issue this may never even come up. Krystal, I guess the writers could throw in that the ff was a hallucination, but then they'd have to explain how they were shared in such detail that a project like Mosaic can trace connections from vision to vision. What I'm really anticipating is how they are going to address things at the end of S1. Another FF? I'll be disappointed if the who show is going to take five years to analyze 6 months. Lost has that market cornered. I'd rather FF stay close to *realtime* passage. |

That's the quandry with this type of show. I think they need to keep heading for the 6 month flashback date and see what occurs. If they have another blackout or something, that will suck. it's kinda like Damages, where the first season was superb and the next did not keep up that same pace. |

Only skimming since I'm behind (and still not sure I'm committed to watching it all), but they've said that they WILL get to the six-months-later mark by season's end. 'THEN what?' is the big question. |

I really am enjoying the last episode and loved that we now have the mystery of 'free will' playing into the story. I still can't figure out how they will do another season once they reach their flash forward. That will be tricky. |

What has me intrigued is the girl who is supposed to be dead, but her father saw her alive in his flash forward. The scenes from next week show her sitting in his kitchen and talking to him, but it's probably a dream. Since they exhumed her body and identified the remains as being hers I'm curious to see how the flash forward worked. Was he dead too and saw her in the afterlife? Did the flash forward occur during a hallucination or dream? |

We finally saw 110 yesterday. To be honest, I don't care about the whole mystery that much as I expect them to strech it for ages, so I'll just wait for it. What I like about it are the characters and their relationships. So, Dem and his fiancee. I liek ehr a lot, I'm still suspicious of him, but the whole wedding / funeral arch just broke my heart. Mark / Olivia - love them together and individually, not sure about the whole trinagle with Simcoe, but I'm curious to see it played out. Bruce (or how the young doctor is called) and his future Japanaese girlfriend (it was 109, I think) - sweet. I do hope these two will find each other. Anyway, back to the msytery - I don't trust Demetri and the FBI boss. Lame - the whole Mark kills Dem, though I can believe Mark's going to kill him I don't buy this "Mark's gun killed him, he's the killer" premise. Haven't they seen at least one eppy of any CSI? Or any other crime show? - Simcoe - so he goes on the tv, admits (against his bosses / co-workers wishes) to probably causing the blackout and thinks no one is going to go after him? No bodyguards? Again people - Sopranos, X-files, 24 anyone? All the FBI or police stuff seems often lame on that show. I don't mind these "mistakes" on soaps or shows like DH or B&S, but this is supposed to be something different. I still love it though. We had this FF Revealed show on TV here and I watched it yesterday and it was so cute. They made fan of all the British actors there and SW said she kept waiting for immigration to show up while shooting :) |

I'm surprised how calm I am about waiting for the show. I do like it and want to see more, but I'm not that desperate for new eppys like when ti comes to Glee, for example. |

I just read that, too... preemptive because Fox is having Idol run on 3/4 and 3/11... |

Supposedly some *tinkering* going on behind the scenes. They're trying to avoid calling it a re-tooling, but I've read there might be some major changes in cast, direction, style... |

Tell me about it. It took as more than month to watch the last eppy. We had no idea what had happened before. We were watching it and were like "wait, what happened with him before" or "does she know about it". For example, I cannot remember the status of Olivia and Mark, they fought, right? So are they together or apart? And I love Olivia and Mark. I think it's easier with Glee, as you don't have to remember that much, but with shows like FF, the break is killing them. |

Good question? I lost interest in FF already. I don't think this show will last very much longer. I still am eager to see V though. |

FF - 3/18, 2 hours (recap special on 3/16) V - 3/30 I only watched the first two of Flash Forward... had meant to watch more, but there was too much else to watch, and my interest wasn't THAT high... I don't see a future in it. I watched the first four of V, and will stick with it through the eight more coming... it's not great, but it's kinda fun, easy to watch... |

I was only watching as it was on at 7pm here so that's is when I am making dinner and it is on but not really watched closely. I would be surprised if it gets renewed. |

Did anyone catch the new Fast Forward this week? I had it on my DVR and watched it when my soaps weren't on cause of the basketball games. While I was done with this show I have to admit that this episode rocked. It was 10 times better than the past episodes. It was fast paced, didn't concentrate on a failing marriage, and had more of the cast front and center. It's too bad ABC waited 5 months to air a new epi and up against NAACP! Idiots! I really don't see it getting renenewd as the ratings tanked hard this week :( |
