Dick's notion of "pre-crime." It's not clear if this theme will ever get explored as fully as it should since this series has a habit of merely dipping its toe into the waters of metaphysical debate, but in "<a class="autolink" href="http://tv.ign.com/objects/000/000630.html">Black Swan</a>" we get a glimpse into the interesting world of "pre-medicine." It's not as exciting as "pre-crime," but at least the show's doctors, <a class="autolink" href="http://stars.ign.com/objects/033/033444.html">Olivia</a> (<a class="autolink" href="http://stars.ign.com/objects/963/963551.html">Sonya Walger</a>) and Bryce (Zachary Knighton), take the time to sort of hash out their reasonings a bit more than our FBI pals. It doesn't make for the most scintillating of TV, since we're not really invested in their characters (or their patient Ned, for that matter), and most of the debate happens during long, boring walks down hospital corridors. But at least I felt like the show was attempting to dig into one of the hundreds of philosophical topics that it's unleashed in just three episodes.<br /><br />Olivia refuses to treat Ned (Keir O'Donnell) based on the clues given in his flash vision because she stubbornly doesn't want to believe that these future visions are something that can be taken as fact. Bryce, however, is all about the saving and healing power of the flash visions. This loft stance actually helped fill in his character a bit more and make him a touch more appealing. Listen, everyone on this show still takes very ham-fisted "time outs" to talk in heightened tones about the ideas of hope and destiny - but if they actually decide to turn Bryce into a pioneering practitioner of "pre-medicine" then he could actually become interesting.<br /><br />According to the episode opener, we're now only 14 days out from the black out. So everyone just ignore the dead crow graph. Maybe it was projecting future crow deaths. Like those crow graphs are apt to do. I have to say, I really liked the opening sequence in this one – with the bus driving into the lake set to Bjork's "It's Oh So Quiet." It's the most artistic thing that this show's done so far (well, that's worked anyway) and it gave the scene a great, detached feel. I think <i>FlashForward</i> could benefit from a more objective approach to this story. I feel like the fact that they try to hyper-personalize everything takes away from the story's ambition. The fact that we don't care about a lot of these characters, and aren't invested in their well-being, tends to make a lot of the scenes fall flat.<br /><br /><!-- start image div --><div class="imageInlineCenter" style="width: 460px;" align="center"><img src="http://tvmedia.ign.com/tv/image/article/103/1035768/black-swan-20091016110314904-000.jpg" border="0" align="center" height="307" width="460" /><div class="inlineImageCredit" style="width: 460px;"> - ABC</div><div class="inlineImageCaption" style="width: 460px;">Noh (Cho) and Benford (Fiennes) chillin' in Indio, yo.</div></div><!--- end image div -->I would like to comment on <a class="autolink" href="http://stars.ign.com/objects/918/918081.html">John Cho</a> however. He's a very charismatic actor and he really does his best to make Agent Noh's actions believable and relatable. I'd much prefer to watch him that Agent Benford (<a class="autolink" href="http://stars.ign.com/objects/912/912029.html">Joseph Fiennes</a>) – even though neither of them, 14 days out now, can figure out the easiest and simplest of solutions to their flash vision dilemmas. Why doesn't Noh just quit the FBI? There are big plays that these guys could make that could greatly effect a more agreeable outcome. Even Olivia thinks that transferring Lloyd's (<a class="autolink" href="http://stars.ign.com/objects/915/915615.html">Jack Davenport</a>) son to a different ward will prevent her from inter-acting with him. But it's just like throwing a boomerang,and the son winds up back in her care. She's going to have to leave. If she wants things to change, then she's going to have to be the one who changes. Same with Noh. They have the ability to remove themselves, possibly, from their fate, but so far they're choosing not to.<br /><br />Which brings us to the paradox. The future visions that the people are seeing of themselves are of <i>themselves having been through the black-out</i>. It's of versions of themselves who have seen their <i>FlashForward</i> visions of themselves being right where they are in the <i>FlashForward</i> vision. And yet they're still re-enacting the scene in the same way that they must have seen it before. Meaning Benford's <i>future self</i> must have known that he was going to end up right there, going over clues, drinking and about to be shot. And yet, he was there anyway. It means that Olivia's <i>future self</i> must have also already seen herself walking out and saying hello to Lloyd, but she's still doing it. It never ends actually. They're seeing future visions of themselves who've seen future visions of themselves. It's hard to believe that knowing the future won't change the outcome, especially when the knowledge is of you being in a specific place, doing a specific thing and feeling a specific way.<br /><br />As far as the rest of "Black Swan" goes…Wedeck (<a class="autolink" href="http://stars.ign.com/objects/915/915556.html">Courtney B. Vance</a>) is still wondering why anyone wants to do anything. "You want to go to Somalia?" Why doesn't the director understand the very investigation that he himself started? He started it based on Benford's flash vision. Noh even questioned his logic about it. Nicole (Peyton List) is back, but I find myself not really caring. She saw herself being drowned. If it turns out that it's just her getting baptized by the priest, I'll s*** in my hat.<br /><br />The blonde terrorist lady, Alda (Rachel Roberts), is back and giving "heady," vague answers to dumb FBI question in an attempt to make this show seem cultivated and egghead-ish. For no reason she tells Benford about the Black Swan theory, and then she shares a needless parable of a young boy with a candle. Then she compared Benford to the young boy in the dark when <i>really</i> he was the old man asking questions to the young boy and she was the young boy, sitting there, handing out pithy philosophical nonsense.<br /><br />And finally, we caught a glimpse of <i><a class="autolink" href="http://tv.ign.com/objects/821/821880.html">Lost</a></i>'s <a class="autolink" href="http://stars.ign.com/objects/914/914843.html">Dominic Monaghan</a>, entering in as…someone; someone who calls Lloyd and reveals that they might have been behind the black-out. Either that or they were behind <i>Battlefield Earth</i>. I'm not sure. He only made reference to a "giant disaster."<br /><br />SOURCE: <a href="http://tv.ign.com/articles/103/1035768p1.html">IGN</a><br /><!-- ign_inc_ratingsbox_tv.jsp -->

Interview - TV Guide<blockquote><p>If you thought <em><a href="http://www.tvguide.com/tvshows/lost/100272">Lost</a> </em>was a tricky show filled with twists and turns, <em><a href="http://www.tvguide.com/tvshows/flashforward/297514">FlashForward</a> </em>has a few mind games of its own to play. TVGuide.com sat down with a star from both ABC shows.</p> <p>One of the many issues <em>FlashForward </em>raises is whether or not you can change the future. <a href="http://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/sonya-walger/190947">Sonya Walger</a>'s character, Olivia, finds herself struggling to make sure the glimpse she saw in her flash doesn't come true, because it would mean the end of her marriage to Mark (<a href="http://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/joseph-fiennes/158848">Joseph Fiennes</a>).</p> <p><a href="http://www.tvguide.com/News/FlashForward-Picked-Season-1010789.aspx"><em>FlashForward</em> picked up for full season</a></p> <p>What does the rest of Olivia's flash forward reveal? Can her marriage survive these circumstances? Walger discusses that and more. First, let's get the major <em>Lost </em>question out of the way ...</p> <p><strong>TVGuide.com: All right, when are you returning to <em>Lost</em>?<br />Sonya Walger: </strong>No idea. Not a clue. I don't even know <em>if</em> I'm in the last season.</p> <p><strong>TVGuide.com: Do you think Penny should die in the end?<br />Walger: </strong>Are you saying in a sacrificial way, Penny needs to die? I hope not because Penny's so great. There would be mass outcry, but you know what, they killed off Charlie, so anything can happen. I feel like her dad should be the one to bite it. I am not kidding.</p> <p><strong>TVGuide.com: Were you nervous about joining another mythology-heavy show?<br />Walger: </strong>No, not at all. It's funny, I didn't even think of <em>Lost </em>when I read that script. It sounds bizarre or naïve, but I really didn't. I read the script and I was so excited by the writing and by this character, by this woman who is complicated and says 'I hate you' to her husband when she means 'I love you.' She's a professional and a surgeon and a mother. I didn't see any similarities to <em>Lost</em>. I honestly still don't. I see them as big shows that have one big exciting event, the catalyst that gets it all going with an ensemble cast. I see that, but after that they just part ways. There isn't a mythology to <em>FlashForward </em>in the same way. There's not codes to decipher ... There's not islands moving and polar bears and smoke monsters, that's not in our show ... yet anyway.</p> <p><a href="http://video.tvguide.com/Shows/FlashForward">Watch full episodes of <em>FlashForward</em></a><em></em></p> <p><strong>TVGuide.com: Did you ever work with </strong><a href="http://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/dominic-monaghan/189836">Dominic Monaghan</a><strong> on <em>Lost</em>?<br />Walger: </strong>This is the joke of me being a part of <em>Lost</em>, I haven't met three-quarters of that cast. I'm not kidding. I would be as star-struck as you would be if I met <a href="http://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/matthew-fox/190540">Matthew Fox</a>. I actually only met Dominic on a photo shoot for <em>FlashForward</em> — that was the first time we met. He comes into play in quite a significant way in this show. I can't really tell you anymore than that. He's a good part of it.</p> <p><strong>TVGuide.com: We haven't seen all of Olivia's flash-forward. What can you tease about what we haven't seen?<br />Walger: </strong>In the flash-forward, the bit that you have seen is that Lloyd [<a href="http://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/jack-davenport/154875">Jack Davenport</a>] gets up from the bed and gets a text message from someone. The person he gets a text message from is very, very unexpected.</p> <p><strong>TVGuide.com: Can Mark and Olivia's marriage survive this flash-forward?<br />Walger: </strong>Who knows? I think it's completely fascinating that just the ghost of this might be what undoes their marriage, or it might be what strengthens them and keeps them together. It might be the tension of it alone [that] drives Mark to drink. It's such an interesting idea that just the threat of something might be what leads you towards it. It may well be that they get to a breaking point and then say, 'No, this isn't happening to us. We're going to make this work.'</p> <p><a href="http://www.tvguide.com/News/Lost-Walger-Married-1010083.aspx"><em>Lost</em> and <em>FlashForward</em> star Sonya Walger weds</a><strong></strong></p> <p><strong>TVGuide.com: Do you have any personal belief in fate?<br />Walger: </strong>I don't really. The word fate doesn't really mean much to me in some ways. I think we make our own. Minute by minute you decide who you are and who you're likely to be. You make the choices hour by hour, just in the present. I don't believe there's some roadmap laid out that we're headed towards.</p> <p><strong>TVGuide.com: Give us a nice tease for what's coming up for Olivia.<br />Walger: </strong>She's going to be forced quite soon to deal with whether or not you can change the future. She keeps being reminded — evidence keeps being presented all around her — that you can't change it. Every time she thinks she's seen the last of Lloyd and that she's managed to avoid it, he keeps coming back.</p> <p>Do you think <em>FlashForward</em> has more twists than <em>Lost</em>?</p><p>SOURCE : <a href="http://www.tvguide.com/News/Lets-FlashForward-Lost-1010887.aspx">TV GUIDE</a><br /></p></blockquote>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2308603227286164774.post-25931087922800341852009-10-15T08:29:00.001-07:002009-10-15T08:29:55.314-07:00Tv Guide - Love Triangle Heats Up<blockquote><span class="indent">FlashForward's tense Mark/Lloyd/Olivia love triangle will come to a head on the Oct. 22 episode when third-wheel Lloyd (Jack Davenport) knocks on the door of married couple Mark (Joseph Fiennes) and Olivia (Sonja Walker), who saw a future glimpse of herself and Lloyd together as a couple.<br /><br />“Mark’s not pleased to see Lloyd,” teases Jack, whose character arrives with the autistic son (Dylan) Olivia has been treating at the hospital. From his own flash forward, Dylan will immediately recognize both the house and Mark and Olivia’s daughter, and feels an instant connection.<br /><br />“It’s a weird territory,” adds Joseph. “Lloyd and Mark can’t condemn each other at this stage for what hasn’t yet happened. Plus, you risk possibly manifesting the (infidelity) outcome as a self-fulfilling prophecy.”<br /><br /><span class="sourcelink">Source: </span><a class="sourcelink" href="http://www.tvguidemagazine.com/kecks-exclusives/flashforwards-love-triangle-heats-up-2807.html">TV Guide Magazine</a></span></blockquote>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2308603227286164774.post-2123859196764866572009-10-15T08:27:00.000-07:002009-10-15T08:28:50.947-07:00New Promo Video<center><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="http://player.longtailvideo.com/player.swf" wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="never" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="file=http://ll.media.abc.com/video/mp4/644x362/FLF_0451FLF19015_Excitement_Promo_HD720p_3648abd5-bd8b-4f09-93d0-84c2d7bc0ab8_2463207.mp4&logo=http://i657.photobucket.com/albums/uu298/futuretalent/mosaicy.png&image=http://i657.photobucket.com/albums/uu298/futuretalent/mosvideback.png&stretching=exactfit&" height="360" width="480"></embed></center>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2308603227286164774.post-69898571570300278332009-10-14T13:56:00.000-07:002009-10-14T14:01:01.449-07:00FlashForward mystery: Was that a spaceship? - SciFi Wire<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://scifiwire.com/assets_c/2009/10/flashForward_cloud_ship-thumb-550x304-26132.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 550px; height: 304px;" src="http://scifiwire.com/assets_c/2009/10/flashForward_cloud_ship-thumb-550x304-26132.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><blockquote><center><br /></center> <!-- /Primary Media Source ENDS --> <p>Now that everyone has had time to catch up on the latest episode of ABC's <i>FlashForward</i> and debate what they saw, we figure it's time to take a closer look at the ending in Somalia where ... something .... appeared in the sky.</p> <p>The scene takes place in an area where a whole bunch of people suffered a blackout similar to the flash-forward, but this one happened back in 1991. A small shepherd boy watches a bunch of flying crows suddenly die and plummet to the ground, crests a hill, and sees bodies all over the ground, followed by something with the appearance of a cloud that looks sort of maybe like a ship.</p> <p>To figure out what it might be, we eavesdropped on the fan debate over on <a href="http://abc.go.com/shows/flash-forward" target="outside">ABC's site</a> and have pulled together the list of possibilities so far:</p> <a name="more"></a> <!-- Secondary Media Source BEGINS --> <div class="MediaResource"> </div> <!-- /Secondary Media Source ENDS --> <b>Some kind of ship:</b> The cloud is a ship, human or otherwise. Or it's the trail from a ship. This alleged ship emitted something or dropped some kind of bomb or otherwise did something that killed that crows. It may even be a Nazi ship, since the whole episode dealt with that cagey old Nazi in prison. Although these are all interesting theories, consensus from the audience is that the cloud isn't a ship, mostly because that would seem too obvious.<br /><br /><b>A nuclear explosion:</b> The cloud came from a nuclear, or nuclear-like, explosion. True, some kind of explosive something-or-other (or emissions from an explosion ... see EMP below) may well have caused the crows to die in Somalia, but we also know crows later die around the world, and no explosions are reported. This one seems unlikely too.<br /><br /><b>An EMP pulse or solar flare:</b> These theories come up regularly but are shot down pretty quickly, since theywere ruled out by the characters themselves in the pilot. We guess it's still possible, and the first episode was throwing out a bit of misdirection, but it's not very dramatic or satisfying.<br /><br /><b>Discharge from the tower:</b> The cloud-ship-thing is seen hovering over a strange tower, but could it have actually come <i>from</i> the tower? The theory here is that there may be some sort of plant or hidden complex underground housing ... er, something ... that caused the crows to die and the people to pass out. Or that the tower itself is emitting waves of something. Consensus seems to be the tower was just in the shot to give perspective, though. <p><b>It's a Higgs boson:</b> In case you didn't know (we had to look it up), a Higgs boson is "a massive scalar elementary particle predicted to exist by the Standard Model in particle physics." Assuming the particle could be the size and shape of a cloud (doubtful!), this would certainly tie in to Rob Sawyer's book <i>Flashforward</i>, on which the show is based. No one lends this theory much credence, though, because the show seems to be taking pains not to repeat what happened in the book.</p> <p><b>The inevitable <i>Lost</i> comparison:</b> It's been noted by many that this "cloud" could be smoke, which is eerily similar to <i>Lost</i>'s "smoke monster." Deliberate? Probably. Meaningful? Doubtful. There was no clankity-clank sound, after all.<br /><br /><b>The cloud is shaped like a crow:</b> There is no actual theory here, but some viewers have noted that the cloud is vaguely shaped like a crow and a lot of crows die. We're including it just so we don't look foolish if there really is something to it.<br /><br /><b>Cloaked Goa'uld Death Glider:</b> The cloud does bear a passing resemblance to the Goa'uld fighters from <i>Stargate SG-1</i>, but unless Richard Dean Anderson shows up as a guest star, we're going to have to say no.<br /><br /><span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline;"><a href="http://scifiwire.com/assets_c/2009/10/Stargate_Death_glider_2-26137.php" onclick="window.open('http://scifiwire.com/assets_c/2009/10/Stargate_Death_glider_2-26137.php','popup','width=550,height=309,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false"><img src="http://scifiwire.com/assets_c/2009/10/Stargate_Death_glider_2-thumb-330x185-26137.jpg" alt="Stargate_Death_glider_2.jpg" class="mt-image-center" style="margin: 0pt auto 20px; text-align: center; display: block;" height="185" width="330" /></a></span><br /><br /><b>Our best guess: None of the above.</b> The cloud will almost surely turn out to be some kind of red herring, like most of the "clues" we've gotten so far. Or it's a nuclear crow ship that activates the tower, which in turn creates a Higgs boson solar flare on the island from <i>Lost</i>, where MacGyver is living in retirement.</p> <!-- Tertiary Media Source BEGINS --> <div class="MediaResource"> </div> <!-- /Tertiary Media Source ENDS -->SOURCE: <a href="http://scifiwire.com/2009/10/new-flashforward-mystery.php#more">SciFiWire</a><br /><div class="CommentsBreak"><br /></div></blockquote>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2308603227286164774.post-57740048847048684462009-10-13T10:29:00.000-07:002009-10-16T09:07:19.605-07:00Music from the show<table border="0" width="620"> <tbody><tr> <td style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);" width="340"><table border="0" width="620"><tbody><tr><td style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);" width="340"><strong>Episode 104: "Black Swan"</strong></td> <td colspan="2">First aired: October 15, 2009</td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>Bjork</strong>, "It's Oh So Quiet"</td> <td><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001OB7F98" target="_blank"><br /></a></td> <td><a href="http://abc.go.com/watch/flashforward/235637"><br /></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3">A bus plunges into the lake.</td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="340"><strong>Original Parliament</strong>, "Atomic Dog"</td> <td width="100"><br /></td> <td width="160"><a href="http://abc.go.com/watch/flashforward/235637"><br /></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3">Ned walks into a club.</td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="340"><strong>IKO</strong>, "Look What You've Done To Me"</td> <td width="100"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002SZ8AM0" target="_blank"><br /></a></td> <td width="160"><a href="http://abc.go.com/watch/flashforward/235637"><br /></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3">Lloyd visits his old home at the Simcoe Residence</td></tr></tbody></table><strong><br /><br /><br />Episode 103: "137 Sekunden"</strong></td> <td colspan="2"><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></td></tr><tr><td><br /></td> <td><br /></td> <td><br /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>KC and the Sunshine Band</strong>, "Boogie Shoes"</td> <td><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000S5C078" target="_blank"><br /></a></td> <td><a href="http://abc.go.com/watch/flashforward/235637"><br /></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"><br /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><br /></td> <td><br /></td> <td><br /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="340"><strong>Smashing Pumpkins</strong>, "To Sheila"</td> <td width="100"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000TENLGW" target="_blank"><br /></a></td> <td width="160"><a href="http://abc.go.com/watch/flashforward/235637"><br /></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"><br /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><br /></td> <td><br /></td> <td><br /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="340"><strong>Jeff Buckley</strong>, "Lover You Should've Come Over"</td> <td width="100"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00136JPB0" target="_blank"><br /></a></td> <td width="160"><br /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"><br /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><br /></td> <td><br /></td> <td><br /></td> </tr></tbody></table><br /><table border="0" width="620"> <tbody><tr> <td style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);" width="340"><strong>Episode 102: "White to Play"</strong></td> <td colspan="2">First aired: October 1, 2009</td> </tr> <tr> <td><br /></td> <td><br /></td> <td><br /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="340"><strong>Nick Drake</strong>, "Place To Be"</td> <td width="100"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000W1W9EW" target="_blank"><br /></a></td> <td width="160"><a href="http://abc.go.com/watch/flashforward/235637"><br /></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3">Mark places the burnt doll crime scene photo on his board.

Union spoke with Movieline about working with Cho and the plight of her character, who’s “flashforward” of April 29, 2010 seems to conflict with what we <em>think</em> we understand about Demetri. <p>The 36-year-old star of <em>Bring It On</em> and <em>Love & Basketball</em> confessed that Zoey’s psychic vision of April 29, 2010 has Demetri in it, which means that he might be misinterpreting his ominous-seeming “flashforward.”</p> <p>“I have a ‘flashforward’ that’s a little different than his, as he doesn’t have one, and I’m insisting that he was in mine,” Union explained. “But I believe that we are getting married. I think that’s what I see.”</p> <p>She quickly added, “The [producers] are Fort Knox-y. If you say something, they’ll track you down!” </p> <p>She adds that Zoey is a particularly exciting character to play because she’s “a really smart character who is not in-your-face or a know-it-all.” Amid all the speculative science spouted by <i>FlashForward’s</i> characters thus far, Zoey’s career as an defense attorney may add street-smarts and levity to the show.</p> <p>“I’d like to think she’s a little more realistic than the over-the-top, sort of fictionalized — how fictionalized characters are drawn. Like, she can’t have it all! She can’t be smart, and have a dude, and have good credit, or you know, whatever. She’s actually pretty balanced, normal, and highly functioning, which is rare for me to play, as she’s not completely neurotic.”</p> <p>As for her TV husband, she says finally meeting Cho in person — after knowing him from the cheetah rides of <em>Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle</em> — proved refreshing.</p> <p>“I pretty much knew him from <em>American Pie</em> and <em>Harold & Kumar</em>,” she said. “He’s so smart, so funny, so in love with his wife and baby. It’s actually really endearing. People usually come to work and they complain, and he comes to work and just gushes. It’s a nice little surprise.”</p><p>Source: <a href="http://www.movieline.com/2009/10/gabrielle-union-confesses-her-characters-vision-on-flashforward.php">MovieLine</a><br

Cho<blockquote><p>John Cho is dedicated to his new ABC series, "FlashForward." </p><p>The 37-year-old actor, known for playing stoner Harold in the "Harold & Kumar" movies, was up at 6:30 a.m. Thursday to kick off a day of phone interviews in support of the thriller, which airs at 7 p.m. Thursdays. </p><p>"I'm nude and in bed," he joked when I mentioned the early hour. "What are you wearing?" </p> <div id="more" class="entry-content more"> <p>Cho, who starred as Lt. Sulu in this year's hit reboot of "Star Trek," plays FBI agent Demetri Noh in "FlashForward." Noh and his partner are investigating the circumstances that caused everyone on Earth to black out for 2 minutes and 17 seconds and have visions of what they will be doing six months in the future. </p><p>Cho wouldn't give away anything about what the future holds for his character, but he did promise exciting things from the series. (And by the way, I was fully clothed.) </p><p>Don't miss the interview below, or a video sneak peek of this week's episode. Spoilers ahead? I don't think so--unless you aren't caught up with "FlashForward." </p><p> <span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline;"></span></p> <p><strong>Congrats. You scored goo numbers with the premiere. Are you surprised at the show's success and at the fans and all the buzz?</strong><br />You know, in a way I always expect everything I'm in to bomb. You're always kind of taken aback by success, I think. We allowed ourselves to celebrate a little bit and we breathed a little sigh of relief, but I feel like it's weeks 2, 3 and 4 that are really critical to us. To their credit, ABC publicity put together a great publicity campaign and we felt like people knew about it. I think the expectations were there to draw in a lot of first-time eyeballs. I think we have a strong show so I hope those people return in the coming weeks. I think that's the big test. </p><p><strong>ABC did a good job of publicizing the show, but not giving anything away.</strong><br />It's hard to keep a secret these days. </p><p><strong>You've had that experience already with "Star Trek," didn't you?</strong><br />Yeah, these last two projects I've been involved with have been high-level security, which is frustrating or annoying on a personal level because they're the only two projects I've done that people know about and ask about. Usually they're like, "What are you working on?" And I'm like, "Oh, it's a comedy about guys getting a burger," and I don't have to go any further because they're really disinterested. So, ironically, finally when people are interested I can't say anything. </p><p><strong>Tell me about Demetri. Is it weird to be the only character who doesn't flash forward?</strong><br />Yes it is. It's a little bit of a cast-wide guessing game, we're always trying to figure out what's going to happen to people. </p><p><strong>So you don't know?</strong><br />No. </p><p><strong>Would you tell me if you did?</strong><br />No. </p><p><strong>What would Harold do in this situation?</strong><br />He would panic, I think. He would panic and start constructing a bunker. </p><p><strong>And would he smoke up?</strong><br />Oh, is that where you're going? That's very clever of you. </p><p><embed name="PaperVideoTest" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="http://chicagotribune.vid.trb.com/player/PaperVideoTest.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" play="true" loop="true" scale="showall" wmode="transparent" devicefont="false" bgcolor="#ffffff" menu="true" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" flashvars="&titleAvailable=true&playerAvailable=true&searchAvailable=false&shareFlag=N&singleURL=http://chicagotribune.vidcms.trb.com/alfresco/service/edge/content/f72ff0cd-d86a-45f8-8c37-8f494ebc2db1&propName=chicagotribune.com&hostURL=http://www.chicagotribune.com&swfPath=http://chicagotribune.vid.trb.com/player/&omAccount=tribglobaldev" salign="l" align="middle" height="450" width="570"></embed><a class="rhsxfdvmzocdxsmezhst" href="http://chicagotribune.vid.trb.com/player/PaperVideoTest.swf"></a> </p> <p><strong>Hey I try. So, in Thursday's episode, Demetri and Mark (Joseph Fiennes) go to Utah to interview a suspect. Is it that guy we saw in the video in Episode 1? Can you say? </strong><br />I cannot say, and how dare you ask. [Pause.] It's going to be good. How's that? </p><p><strong>That's great. Thanks.</strong><br />Let me assure you of this: My experience reading the scripts mirrors watching episodes, really, because I don't know where the show's going [either]. There's a lot of excitement internally for us reading each script. I've been satisfied with how great the scripts are, but what's been a surprise is how much they're revealing in each episode. It really advances the end game. Each episode has kind of a bombshell every week. I've been surprised at how much they're giving away this early. </p><p><strong>The flash-forward date is 10 p.m. April 29, 2010. If the series goes on to multiple seasons, will it show the longest six months ever?</strong><br />We're going to switch formats and become a four-camera sitcom after April 29. It's going to be a comedy about two roommates in New York [and] one's messy. The writers, particularly creator David Goyer and the showrunner Marc Guggenheim, have a master plan that's very thorough. My understanding is that they pitched to ABC the first three seasons. They are very confident that if they get there they can accordion out accordingly.<br /></p><p>Source: <a href="http://www.chicagonow.com/blogs/show-patrol/2009/09/john-cho-sees-future-with-flashforward.html">Chicago Now</a><br /></p> </div></blockquote>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2308603227286164774.post-33425450663338787792009-09-29T11:21:00.000-07:002009-09-29T11:23:12.702-07:00Episode 1.01 Recap - TV Overmind<blockquote>Isn't it refreshing to see a pilot episode not titled "Pilot"? I was pleasantly surprised when <em>FlashForward</em>'s first episode had a more creative and enigmatic title than "Pilot," unlike other shows in its vein, like <em>Fringe</em> and <em>Lost</em>. Of course, the title is the least interesting part of the episode. <p>I'd actually had the privelege of seeing the episode a few weeks ago, so tonight's airing was more of a rerun, but was no less exciting — it's one of the fastest-paced hours of television I've seen. And that's a good thing.</p> <p>The episode starts off with Mark Benford awakening in an overturned car. There's the sound of shattering glass in the background, and he's got a nasty cut on his head. It's a surprisingly quiet environment for the scene of a car crash. He shimmies out of his seat in the car, sliding out the shattered rear windshield of the car. There's a body lying on the curb as he comes out, cementing the fact that we won't be dealing with a happy scene.</p> <p>As he gets to his feet and walks around, there's Oceanic 815-reminiscent chaos surrounding him. People are screaming and running around, cradling dead loved ones and clutching at wounds. "Demetri!" cries out Benford, though he can't find who he's calling for — just a man covered in flames flailing about.</p> <p>As the flaming man falls, we're treated to a pretty cool title sequence before being whisked away to four hours before, at the beginning of what looks to be "another beautiful day," according to the radio announcer. The sun rises over suburbia, and Mark Benford opens up his gun safe. Inside, in addition to his sidearm, is a note that says "You're a crappy husband. I hate you." Glancing over at his wife, Benford chuckles before grabbing his holster and badge.</p> <p>He then goes over to sit down beside his wife, who is still asleep, on the bed. "I hate you too," he whispers, and they both chuckle. She reminds him about the garage door, but he's playfully "already forgotten," and instead goes to make breakfast for their daughter, Charlie, who is watching cartoons happily.</p> <p>Benford leaves his house through the broken garage door, greeting the neighborhood cleaning crew as he goes. As he's walking out, Nicole, the Benford's babysitter, shows up in a Volkswagon. Benford asks her if she'll be able to stay an extra hour so that Olivia can work the late shift. She doesn't mind — she's got "studying" to do anyway.</p> <p>A little while later, Olivia has woken up, and calls Bryce Varley, her co-worker. She leaves him a voicemail expressing her concern and annoyance at his failure to show up at rounds the previous day. And she has appropriate reason to worry, as a forlorn Bryce is actually out on a pier overlooking the Pacific. He looks over the ocean for a moment, watching some surfers. After placing his wallet and cell phone on the railing, he reaches into his satchel and pulls out a gun.</p> <p>Meanwhile, Benford is attending an Alcoholic's Anonymous meeting. A man, Aaron Stark, is speaking to the circle. His daughter Tracy, who fought in Afghanistan, was killed in the war, and her remains, only identifiable through DNA, were brought back to the U.S., which prompted him to become an alcoholic. After the meeting, Benford chastises Stark for his lack of social skills; Stark has been procrastinating on calling Amanda, a girl recommended to him by Benford, who he has refused to call. Stark argues that he's Benford's sponsor, and should be riding him, not the other way around. Stark cracks, agreeing to call Amanda, even though "nurses freak him out."</p> <p>Nicole is with a guy in the Benford's living room, and they're not doing any studying at all while Charlie is upstairs taking a nap. She thinks she hears Charlie upstairs, and tells the boy that he'll have to leave as soon as they're finished.</p> <p>Meanwhile, Benford and his FBI partner Demetri are surveying a mysterious woman, who is meeting with suspected terrorists. While snapping pictures, Demetri complains to Mark about the song his fiance has chosen for their wedding, "Islands in the Stream," which he believes is very corny. Benford realizes that he can't remember what he and Olivia danced to at their wedding.</p> <p>Aaron looks at a picture of his daughter before climbing up to repair a power line, while Olivia discusses her daughter with a fellow surgeon before an operation.</p> <p>Benford and Demetri, meanwhile, shadow their suspects by car, conferring with Stan Wedeck and Janis Hawk back at headquarters. As Benford and Demetri tail the suspects, they're suddenly discovered. The suspects speed off with the FBI in pursuit, narrowly dodging cars. Well, <em>some</em> cars. Others aren't so lucky.</p> <p>As everything builds to a head — Olivia goes into surgery, Aaron climbs the power pole, Bryce brings the gun to his head, Nicole and her boyfriend romance, and Mark and Demetri continue their pursuit — Mark is suddenly thrown into a different time.</p> <p>What follows is one of the trippiest sequences ever. Mark finds himself standing in an office, surveying a bulletin board covered with photographs and notecards. Among the words he sees: Mosaic. He's drinking from a flask, and he quickly scribbles on a calendar notecard, "Who else knows?," noticing a friendship bracelet on his wrist. Red lasers shine in the distance, and Benford prepares himself, cocking his weapon and hiding as two masked men weilding guns enter his office. One of the men has three stars tattooed on his arm. As Benford watches the two from his hiding place, he is suddenly thrust back into the present, in the overturned car where we found him in the pilot.</p> <p>He stumbles out, and searches for Demetri among the chaos. He's approached by a worried Asian man, who is pointing frantically to a gas tanker, which soon explodes. Benford, in the aftermath of the explosion, jumps atop a car and discovers that the disaster is all around him — the entire freeway has fallen victim to this crash. Even buildings burn with black smoke as a result of crashed aircraft.</p> <p>Benford soon finds Demetri, who is disoriented but okay. They rescue a woman from a burning car, and Benford tells Demetri to call the office and see what happened.</p> <p>Bryce, meanwhile, wakes up with a bump on his head. Everyone around him on the pier has passed out as well, and he heroically goes to rescue some beached surfers, all thoughts of suicide gone.</p> <p>Nicole goes to check on Charlie, who tells Nicole that she had a bad dream, and also drops the title of the episode when she reveals she dreamt that there were "no more good days."</p> <p>Mark finds himself unable to call Olivia, and assists Demetri in the arrest of the mysterious blonde terrorist. Demetri questions the woman, but she denies any responsibility for the blackout. A crowd of people, witnessing the event, begins to surround Mark and Demetri, asking what happened. Benford doesn't know, but a man tells him that he heard on his radio that the event happened in San Diego as well. Demetri convinces Benford to go after Olivia on foot, and he does so in a painful-to-watch slow-motion running scene.</p> <p>As he walks through the streets among looters and a strange kangaroo, he stops to watch a news report in the window of a nearby "Voltage City," which confirms that the flashforward happened everywhere, which is repeated to us by a viewer. Jeez, we got it already.</p> <p>While watching, Benford gets a call from Olivia, confirming that she's okay, and that Nicole said Charlie was okay. Original author of <em>Flashforward </em>Robert J. Sawyer can be seen walking behind her, trying to make a call as well. Olivia is overwhelmed with patients, so she can't talk very long, and hangs up on Mark.</p> <p>The patient she hung up on Mark for is a young, eight-year-old boy, who had been hit by a car during the flash. She reassures the still-conscious boy as he's wheeled away, and he tells her "I know, Olivia." She looks in shock at the boy as he is wheeled away. She takes him into trauma and is able to narrowly save his life with Bryce's help, though she reminds him he's not off the hook for his absence the previous day.</p> <p>At FBI headquarters, Benford talks with Wedeck about the blackout. Wedeck tells him that the FBI is still gathering intel. As the two walk, they are joined by an FBI agent played by <em>Family Guy</em> creator Seth MacFarlane. He tells them that NASA has not found anything regarding the cause, and Wedeck sarcastically wonders if the Pope has chimed into the discussion.</p> <p>Wedeck calls the FBI into a board meeting in order to "wrap their heads around" the blackout. As death toll statistics are discussed, it's mentioned that even the vice president was killed when Air Force Two went down. However, Mark is more concerned with what the flashes were, as opposed to their impact. He tells of his vision, and everyone else agrees that they had similar visions. They come to the conclusion that their consciousness moved forward in time. Benford shares the date in which his flashforward took place, April 29, 2010, and everyone agrees that this was the same date theirs took place in as well.</p> <p>Demetri soon returns with the blonde suspect. She insists that she's not responsible for the blackout, and Demetri reminds her that she was still planning on killing thousands of people. As Demetri and Mark catch up, an agent runs up, saying that he has a way to confirm that the flashforwards correlate: to call the Scotland Yard agent Fiona Banks whom he saw in his flash. They do so, and the details match up perfectly, leaving no doubt that the flashforwards are actually a glimpse into the future.</p> <p>A television reporter tells the world that human brains being scanned during the blackout showed active engagement throughout the two minutes, seventeen seconds, which were consistent with a waking experience. The reporters tell that all the visions are seeming to corroborate, like a "grand Mosaic" is being filled in. Mark takes notice to this, because Mosaic was the name of the project he was working on in the future.</p> <p>He tells Wedeck about this, and Wedeck asks them what they saw. Demetri saw nothing, he says; he simply blacked out. Demetri is more concerned with the blonde suspect than the events of the flashforward. Janis was going for a prenatal sonogram. Wedeck was in a "meeting," (he was using the bathroom) and "just happened to glance down" at the newspaper's sports page, giving him both the date.</p> <p>Demetri suggests compiling all the stories together, and Janis thinks to create a website to do so. Mark thinks this is what he was doing in his flashforward, and Wedeck agrees to set up an inter-agency task force, which Mark, Demetri, and Janis will run. Demetri is skeptical, but Wedeck tells them to do it anyway.</p> <p>That night, Demetri and Mark work on setting up the bulletin board Mark was looking at in his vision. Mark has Demetri write down names and items he remembers on yellow notecards, including "D. Gibbons," "Baby doll photograph," "Blue Hand," and "Frienship bracelet."Mark remembers the men coming to kill him, and sketches the three stars in one of the men's tattoo, placing them up on the board. He wants Janis to compile a list of all the D. Gibbons in the world. Demetri, meanwhile, is worried that his lack of a vision means that he'll be dead.</p> <p>Mark returns home, and speaks briefly to Nicole, who wants some reassurance. She thinks God caused the blackout, as punishment.</p> <p>Olivia, back at the hosptial, is tending to the young boy, whose mother died in the blackout and whose father is Stanford professor Lloyd Simcoe, who they have been unable to locate. Bryce reveals to Olivia about his suicide attempt, but assures her that those thoughts are gone from his mind now, because his vision convinced him that he'd be still alive, and happy. Olivia reveals her vision wasn't so good — it depicted the end of her marriage.</p> <p>Mark talks to Aaron about the flashforward, and reveals that he was drinking again. He knows Olivia would have left him if he'd relapsed, and he worries about this. Aaron tells him not to relapse. Aaron reveals that his vision showed him finding Tracy in some sort of desert tent. He has mixed feelings about the whole experience, but wants his vision to come true, even though Mark doesn't want his own to.</p> <p>Mark repairs the garage door as Olivia comes home, because it was a "slow day." The two go up to visit Charlie before going to bed themselves. As they lie in bed, Mark shares his flashforward with Olivia, though he leaves out the part about himself drinking. Olivia is very reluctant to reveal her vision, but Mark insists multiple times, until she tells him that she saw herself with another man, who she didn't even know. She then leaves the bedroom.</p> <p>Mark goes outside to sit on the swingset, and Charlie follows him out, telling him she had a bad dream. As the two sit together, she gives him a friendship bracelet, which he later will be wearing in his dream. She puts the bracelet on his wrist, and he stares up into the night sky, afraid of the inevitability that looms before him.</p> <p>Meanwhile, Demetri is back at the office, talking to his fiance. He agrees to dance to "Islands in the Stream." Their conversation is interupted by Janis, who wants to show Demetri something. He gets up to go and look, and she shows him security camera footage from around the world at the time of the blackout. They all show the same thing, except for one tape of a baseball game. Janis zooms in to reveal everyone passing out, except for one man, who stands and exits the stadium, looking around as he does so.</p> <p>"Who is he?" Janis asks. "And why is he still awake?"</p><p>Source: <a href="http://www.tvovermind.com/flash-forward-tv-news/recap-flashforward-1-01-no-more-good-days/10104">TV Overmind</a><br /></p></blockquote>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2308603227286164774.post-49671543175585743292009-09-29T10:00:00.000-07:002009-09-29T10:01:29.910-07:00Behind the scenes with Joseph Fiennes<center><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="http://player.longtailvideo.com/player.swf" wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="never" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="file=http://ll.media.abc.com/video/mp4/644x362/FLF_102_WeeklyShow_Publicity_WeeklyShow_HD720p_78bca6a0-221c-4043-aab5-520d52e1f41d_2421112.mp4&logo=http://i657.photobucket.com/albums/uu298/futuretalent/mosaicy.png&image=http://i657.photobucket.com/albums/uu298/futuretalent/mosvideback.png&stretching=exactfit&" height="360" width="480"></embed></center>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2308603227286164774.post-848244512742910312009-09-28T20:47:00.000-07:002009-09-28T20:51:31.255-07:00Sprint Customers Get Exclusive Content<blockquote></blockquote><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://a.abc.com/m/images/shows/flash-forward/generic/flf_header_flashAhead_01.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 624px; height: 251px;" src="http://a.abc.com/m/images/shows/flash-forward/generic/flf_header_flashAhead_01.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><blockquote>The <i>FlashForward</i> event that shook the world goes from global to mobile with Flash Ahead sponsored by Sprint.

Vance and Christine Woods Interview<blockquote><span class="indent">As Director of the Los Angeles Field Office of the FBI, Courtney B. Vance has a role of authority as Stanford Wedeck on the new hit ABC drama series Flash Forward. In charge of the team investigating the cause behind the black-out that gave everyone in the world a two minute and 17 second glimpse into their future, Wedeck helps FBI Agent Mark Benford (played by Joseph Fiennes) start the Mosaic, in order to connect everyone's flash-forwards together.<br />During a set visit to their soundstages at Disney Studios, co-stars Courtney B. Vance and Christine Woods, who plays FBI Agent Janis Hawk, talked about what drew them to Flash Forward.<br /><br />Q: After the flash-forward date of 29th of April happens, do you have any idea what will happen?<br /><br />Christine: Honestly, I don't know.<br /><br />Q: Are you trying to guess what's going to happen after that date?<br /><br />Courtney: The way that it's structured, they can go anywhere. So, I'm at peace with my not knowing anything.<br /><br />Christine: I speculate on the grand scheme, "What caused this? Why did this happen?" But, I really mostly want to find out about Bryce (Zachary Knighton), or what happens to another person.<br /><br />Courtney: Yeah, what is Simon (Dominic Monaghan) about? What is Lloyd (Jack Davenport) doing here? There's a little clandestine meeting going on.<br /><br />Christine: And, I want to know how everybody knows each other.<br /><br />Courtney: Yeah, is this General Hospital? Did everyone meet at the hospital? Why are we at the hospital all the time?<br /><br /><a href="http://www.iesb.net/extensions/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=7538:set-visit-interview-courtney-b-vance-and-christine-woods-flash-forward&catid=44:interviews&Itemid=172">Full Interview Here</a><br /><br /><span class="sourcelink">Source: </span><a class="sourcelink" href="http://www.iesb.net/extensions/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=7538:set-visit-interview-courtney-b-vance-and-christine-woods-flash-forward&catid=44:interviews&Itemid=172">IESB</a></span></blockquote>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
