We also had the opportunity to check out the pilot episode of Flash Forward. It was cool. They had us in a huge room with a bunch of T.V.s set up so you had a feel like you were sitting at home. It wasn’t set up like the panels at Comic-Con but still pretty cool. We sat through the whole episode and let me tell you, it was AWESOME! It has alot of the things that LOST fans would like: conspiracy, immediate chaos just like the LOST pilot, intriguing characters, a good initial set up so it sucks you in immediately. We left already talking about who is involved with who and what we think will happen next. Flash Forward, without giving away too much of what you already might have seen in the trailer, is set in the L.A. area. In it, the whole world blacks out for exactly 2 minutes 17 seconds (numbers again, LOST fans!). While the world blacks out, people have visions into the their futures in those 2 minutes they are blacked out. Meanwhile, the world goes on and there is mass chaos when everyone awakens because people were blacked out and couldn’t prevent it. Things like airplane crashes, to surgeries gone bad because surgeons were blacked out, to the gardner passing out while mowing the lawn and countless car crashes. It is a very interesting premise and I hope it doesn’t go the way of Fringe, which face it. It had potential, but sucked after the pilot. Flash Forward stars Joseph Fiennes, John Cho, Dominic Monaghan, and Sonya Walger, the last two LOST alumni aka Charlie and Penny. Sneak peek courtesy of Hulu.
