can every body stop goin spoiler tag crazy.. On a mobile browser you cant remove them so it kind of make's site not worth visiting.

rachie below was me - probably should post with the same name as i post on the threaded boards for the sake of consistency. likely no one cares, but... ;)

also wanted to say that the casting is EXCELLENT. so far i'm really loving the cast. there's great chemistry between sonya walger and joseph fiennes. it wasn't hard to see her as olivia, instead of having her stuck in my head as penny.

Very intrigued by the show so far. I've been out of town, and just watched the pilot today. Excited for the next episode! High hopes! Hard to imagine there will be another show that I'll be so in love with and obsess over like Lost, but I'm excited about this show all the same.

PaulG223, your question is not a spoiler, so no need to font, but thanks for practicing.

My thinking is that the first few things he put on the board in the pilot, the first things he remembered, he is now going to try and verify. If he can verify some of them, they stay on, and if not, they may come off, or change. As new things either get remembered and verified, or end up there as a follow up to a lead that pans out, they will be put on the board or enhanced in somewhere. No good cop is going to have a board that full of stuff that can not be corroborated, but that does not mean the board may not look different by the time we get to April.

So i have a question

If Mark is reconstructing his bulletin board based on what he saw in his flashforward wouldn't that mean the only reason they are on the bulletin board is because he saw them in the flashforward. In turn, the only reason they are in the flash forward is because he put them there on that basis. Does this mean none of whats on the board (that he remembered in this episode that is) is valid

Also, i want to be in this show. Although i can't act lol

yo okay so here's what i've got: Oceanic 815 sign in background. (LOST) could kangaroo possibly symbolize Australia? and on April 29, 1971, the US did nuclear weapons testing in Nevada. i looked at part of the summary for the book FlashForward was based on (FlashForward by Robert J. Sawyer) and it said "Tests were done..." hmmm??? btw: DOT2318 could just be a number. Department of Transportation number 2318 (23 and 8 are LOST numbers...) I'm a LOST fanatic btw.

I am sitting in my friends dorm room and her
and i are holding hands watching a movie, and
then we kiss.

bruno "dood" i noticed that too you got me thinking so a bit of a look around & Dot 2318 is math to bridge sub space a kind of time travel ! Best i could do at short notice anyone else come up with anything better please help..

sorry i was just splurting info out as i was watching it for the second time.. Red panda's are also known as fire foxes..! The street sign was a strange one just wanted to see if any one else had seen it.. Cant wait till next episode just hope the polished finish lasts and their is not a wild goose chase.. Anyone else see any clue's ?

Great Show Thanks for another night in front of the tele!

Well.... I want to know what DOT2318 means!! :D

dood, are you asking questions or making statements, I can't determine?

ped xing yellow street plate around kangaroo bit pedestrian crossing but in
U.S. ?

red panda's are firefoxes

Aletheian: I was going to guess lens flare on that one, since it seems like the characters would have commented on something odd in the sky along with everything else! Plus, they're very in these days. :)

FlashForward premieres TONIGHT in the UK at 9pm on Channel Five!!!

I am pimping it to everyone I know. :)

Just wondering if anyone noticed the
two lights in the sky off the
pier that were seen just before the
doctor came to. Was that just lense flare or
something significant?

I am certainly looking forward to April 29, 2010.

.

Look forward to posting.

Really enjoyed the first episode. A number of unanswered questions, and thoughts/theories already starting to bubble up.

Found this site after spotting the Red Panda name on the side of the bus early on in the episode, with the words "Better Tomorrow" boldly shown!

Love the show. I've turned about 15 people on to Flash Forward and if it gets cancelled I will stop watching and new shows on television. Crap shows stay on forever and ones that make people think this show get screwed.

Good luck and thanks for great entertainment. Keep up the good work.

I found this show fascinating. I'm very, very excited.

Awesome show ,can't wait to see more

So glad that I was paying attention while watching the premiere, and found this site. Wonder if there will be any websites that are, like, companion pieces, like the Oceanic website was on LOST? You know, that provide more information, more red herrings, and are a tangential part of the mythology?

And, yes, I know this is NOT LOST, but that's the closest touchstone I could come up with. For obvious reasons!!

Great show, going to be as addictive as
LOST!!

on April 29, 1971, the U.S. did some Testings on Nuclear Weapons in Nevada. Hope i can help find the cause of this World-Wide disaster, and put Suspect Zero to Justice.

Hi all, I'm new here...hopefully I'll be able to contribute to some intelligent conversations here and am happy to have found this community...

wow, i love this show! Did anybody else see the oceanic sign in the background, that sad "Never been a crash?"

Hola Tid, long time no read in these parts.


As for the Billboard, yup, saw it, everyone pointed to it during the Paley screening. As for the Perfect Record thing, I seem to remember at comic con an ad for Oceanic that said the same thing. So, I'm thinking that maybe the explosion to destroy the Swan Station in 1977 did actually change the future and maybe flight 815 didn't crash, giving Oceanic a perfect record.

Did any one else see the Oceanic billboard during the steakout scene?
At the top of the billboard it says "Perfect Safety Record" which I thought was pretty funny.

Your show is awesome!

Red Panda?

Flash Foward lived up the hype, I'm looking forward to it.

What does this all mean i was looking through the flash forward to see if I could find info and I find this.

Just wanna join the fun...

why was that man at a Detroit tigers game? doesnt he have anything better to do? like a Phillies game!

The kangaroo?

names of the first 8 episodes
1 No More Good Days"
2 "White to Play"
3 "137 Sekunden"
4 "Black Swan"
5 "Give Me Some Truth"
6 "Scary Monsters and Super Creeps"
7"The Gift
" 8 "Rules of the Game

I know the big question is "if you could see a flash of your future, would you embrace it or try to stop it, and if you stopped it, how might that affect other people" but what's got me thinking now is 'are these flashes of the future taking into account the viewer having seen their future, or is it pure?' In other words, does the very act of having seen the flashes change what happens, influence it, cause it, or are the visions of a future that has not been affected by the past where people have seen their futures?

Right now, the entire population of the world has seen a flash of their future. Some will love it, and some will want to run and hide from it or change it. Won't the future for each person change if just one or two people alter their own futures? If a person saw something horrific and the committed suicide in order to avoid it, they won't be there to experience that horrific moment, which would then ripple out ot others. Conversely, if someone sees something wonderful, but rather unexpected, will they have to do something to make that future happen, or is it just going to happen regardless of their actions.


eeeps, I guess I'm getting into the whole 'cause and effect' debate here. Maybe I'll go find a theory page on the TB to discuss this in more details.

Truther...omg, that's an amazing observation, gives me chills... and guess what, check this: ***OH WHOA...ok, above here there are pictures of featured items for this show/site...and lookee what one of them is...a book on you-know-who, I don't feel like naming him!***

**later note - I no longer see what I referred to in my spoiler font...but it was there...maybe there's a "view all" funtion, but I can't see it - darn! :)**

Luzi - mine, too - it blew my mind too. And I like the music, both score and soundtrack, a whole lot. Ack, I forgot to look, is this Giacchino once more, or someone else...I'll have to check - LOL


Hi Jinx! :D

Blew my Mind. Gonna be an epic series, though I don't understand everyone's hatred toward the music score, personally I find it quite riveting and intense

Significance of April 29 (or 30th in Europe)...?

April 30th 1945 is the day that Hitler committed suicide. Seeing as we know they eventually talk to a former Nazi about something maybe this has some significance.

Just a thought.

Has anyone else found any clues to the "encrypted file" on www.truthhack.com? I tried "gibbons" (a name from Bedfords flashforward) and unlocked one piece. Been scouring the Mosaic site with no more results.

The future is past and coming again.

Oh my gosh...Quinton I'm so embarrassed - I corrected my misspelling in my posts today! Now that I think on it, your name not changing color in my posts shoulda been a huge clue, ya think? :D So sorry...

Hi there!
I really enjoyed the first episode and can't wait to see what comes next. I'm not going to speculate....yet. I am, however, going to say that as a 5 year LOST addict, there can be little comparison between these two shows since they are two very different stories.
I admit to thinking a few things were like LOST, but only for a few minutes and they were more visual and, I expect, placed purposely.
Love the kangaroo! What's up with the guy in his undies in the middle of the street?

*squeeeee and SQUEAK!!* Hi Quinton - LOL!! I dug it to China, dude!! :D

Merry Happy ChrismaKwanzaakah!! ;) Pretty soon it really WILL be that time...oy.

Thanks everyone! It's like Christmas morning around here today. Or all eight days of Hannukah rolled into one!

So happy ya'll dug it.

Great Show

Great pilot. Hope it doesn't get too cheesy.

Hey y'all adorable Pandaroos, HOW SICK IS THIS BRILLIANT SHOW, huh??!!!! Yeah, I think it's time for an OMGWTFPANDABEAR (Or Kangaroo as one of you said - LOL - what the HELL is up with that 'Roo, dudes? :D )

Kudos ALL AROUND on a great premiere - not a weak link anywhere in the performance chain, EVERYONE was SO engaging from moment one, amazing pace, LOTS to feel, LOTS of people I'm so looking forward to hanging out with every Thursday night, a truly fascinating mystery to solve...DEAL ME IN for the duration, guys, I LIKE THIS!! :D

Strictly because of physics, anatomy and the architecture of the heart, noooo, I'm sorry, this cannot take the place of or inFRINGE (HAHA, didja see how I just did that!!) on the place LOST has in my heart, but what I'm saying is...there's now a special place in my ticker for this show, man...absolutely. I heart you, too, FlashForward!!

And yep, let's get the "comparison" over with - except for the Oceanic poster, this show ain't paralleling LOST. After the first few minutes (and I'll get to that in a sec) it diverged completely. I say after the first few minutes because the first few minutes were INCREDIBLY like LOST. Joseph Fiennes waking up to chaos and wreckage and screams and the way he surveyed the wreckage - the way we were slowly showed how huge it was, the explosion...ya with me? :) But from then on, you knew you weren't on the Island anymore, right?

David and Marc, you really did it this time, busters, I'm a little fish on your hook - all the success in the world to you and all your creative team.

All the crew making it look, sound and feel so wonderful - thank you!

All ye storytellers (read: CAST)...freakin' BRILLIANT!!

Sonya and John, who we've been blessed to see here already - you blow me away. And Zach, HI!! What a tremendous job you did - a fabulous episode mini-arc for your character, eh? :)

BRAVO and thank you very much!!
Karen

OMG - this is so cool - hi all you 'Lagelings I've missed much and not seen in ages! Carencey, Hallie, Jinx, hey Kailin!, Cheriberrybomb, BrerMatt, Hatori Hanzo - wow, the Old Guard is present - LOL! :D And Quinton , hello, I saw you sneak by the Board - LOL!! And I so DID enjoy, immensely.

Taking a break from vampires for a a little scifi. I was hooked from the moment I saw the firstlook on Hulu and- this is weird- there were consequences for the time blip. So sick of shows were something similar happens and everyone wakes up and toddles along like nothing is wrong. Can't wait to see how this unfolds!

oceanic X 2 in10 mins.

Okay, I'm definitely on board, that was a great opening statement.

The comparisons to LOST are obviously going to come thick and fast from fans and critics alike, but aside from the obvious OMGINTENSEMYSTERY?!?! elements, this show felt completely different to me, and very exciting.. in it's own, different way.

Despite obvious parallels to "Guys... where are we?!", I thought that "Who the hell is that.... and why are they awake?!" was pretty much the perfect ending to the Pilot. I found myself wondering during the final act what they could possibly leave us with as a convincing "must-watch-next-week" cliffhanger, and yup, they kinda knocked it outta the park. Sweet.

Also? I thought the extended promo after the episode was pretty awesome.... the GOOD kind of spoilers, hahahaha!


Do we have an offical tally of how many Red Panda appearences there were? I remember one, but will definitely be rewatching at some point. :)

Okay, just one disappointment: it was over WAY TOO FAST!! Come on, I wanna see ep 2 NOW! Is the DVD set available yet? :-) I guess I'll have to settle for analyzing the recording, plus the rewatch tomorrow night. The rest of the ep was just as great as the first bit I saw at Comic Con. Thanks for the awesome work - bring it on!

Also Hi to Hijinx, Carencey, Cheribomb, BrerMatt, OldManFan and any other old friends from the Fuselage! Been a While, but I'm happy to see you all on here.

That was Mad Brilliant! Glad I rewatched the FlashForward scene and saw Red Panda on the board.
Can't wait until Next Week.
Also, Hi Yukailin!

The live chat event on ABC.com just wrapped.

More Demetri theories:

Maybe he's passed
out/unconscious for some reason or
another?

Maybe he's in a coma

And this is going to be a weird one, but
Maybe the visions were "given" to
everyone, and he was just left out either
because if he had that information he would
know too much, or maybe he has an ability,
unlike other people, to change the futures
witnessed in the flashforwards.

eppy was awesome. it was great to see the
second half of it...only saw the first half at
Comic Con.

looking forward to the next eppy. :D

hijinx: yup, I rarely get the interesting subtle stuff on the first try.

BrerMatt: brainstorming...maybe he was blindfolded? IDK, everyone else was also able to describe their state of mind.

test

Well, I'm hooked!

Howdy y'all! I just wanted to stop by and say that I hope you all enjoyed the show. I am stuck at work so I am hoping that my DVR is working properly tonight. :) I did manage to see a screener of the first episode thanks to a reviewer friend and I really enjoyed it.

Hijinx: preview spoiler yeah, I thought maybe it was him just based on timing and half a face, but it seemed pretty clear from the preview.

Random observation: April 29, 2010 is a Thursday? interesting. :)

haha, so I don't really need the asterisks on the light background. I'm just in the habit of using them!

I wonder how long until the bulletin
board is reconstructed online with all the clues
that have yet to be fully revealed...

Any speculation on why Demetri saw
nothing, other than the obvious?

Carencey THAT is a fabulous linkie!

Itching to watch. sigh.

BrerMatt: Because he's in love. :D

Also, on the other thing - ***It might be, just might be, that I have a good eye for flasks. Especially shiny flasks.***

*Waves hello to PapaChocolate - didn't mean to ignore new posters!*

test post.

I didn't notice the drinking until he
mentioned it himself.

Where are all the new fans?

ETA: It's always Pick on Picard Day when Shatner is in town.

(Why is he climbing a mountain?)

BrerMatt: **Maybe just because he didn't see the whole thing? The word red was covered up, right? and he either didn't remember that he was drinking or chose not to mention that, either. Or never mind, he just mentioned it. :)

And yeah, saw that double lens flare off the dock. Pretty. :) ***

Also, did you see the Dragon*Con TV lens flare bumper?

Hi, everyone!

What an excellent show!

Here's some spoiler-fonted goodness: OMGWTFKANGAROO!

Oh and why does he only recall Mosaic and not Red Panda Resources? After all,
we all know it's important!

I saw what you saw too, Caren. I also so lots of Star Trek-like lens flares. Of course, Fringe has them too.
2009 is the Year of the Lens Flare.

Kudos to the creative team, actors and crew!

ETA: Also, Hijinx, I was sorry to hear about the thing you blogged about. Hopefully, everything will be not
bad. *hugs*

No, but I was thinking of the newbies. LOL :D

***Impressive that so many of them could corroborate the date...I swear, I can go nearly the whole day without knowing what day it is sometimes.***

back to my regular color. :)

***Spotted the Oceanic billboard, hehe! and kudos to the effects people on the various explosions. great opening so far. ***

ETA: aaaand*** we see one reason that surgical masks are good in real life! although they are a pain if you want to understand an actor's dialogue. :)***

hijinx what is your definition of Easter Eggs?

I like the show so far. It's very exciting. :-)

grrrrr, not watching yet due to working. I HATE working Thursday nights!

Fusebunnies - ok, I'm here and I'm watching. It would be nice if you would visit The Fuse every once in a while. You know who you are.

OMF

Enjoy everyone! And we'll see in the future!

Hi Zach! Nice to see you around here! I am very excited for tonight's ep. Can't wait to see what everyone has been working on so diligently!

hattori Long time no see!
dia? is that you? YAY!!

So juiced. Mosaic project is going
to be bizonkers.

SO excited for tonight! I can't believe it's finally here! You had me at the first commercial (May?) and my decision to attend your panel at Comic Con was the best decision of the Con for me! WOW! And now, it's finally time. WOO HOO! Good luck, can't wait to talk about it after.

hi guys.....this is Zach Knighton here (Bryce
from FF).....so excited for tonight. hope all of
you will be watching and thanks for all the
support and excitement for the show!
talk soon.......z

WOOHOO

I'm so excited, that I just can't hide it. I'm about to lose control and I think I like it!

And hello Yukailin, Dia and Hijinx!!!

*doink*

Okay, I don't get it. I know I'm new here, and I have seen the promo info and all, but I still don't quite understand. Everyone simultaneously time travels six months into the future for 2 minutes 17 seconds, then they come back to normal space time and a lot of them die? Am I missing something here, or am I being punked? What's the point? Alien invasion, mad scientist experiment, or Big 'S' flying around the globe again? Help me out here, please...

This could happen to the world. Global destruction in many ways, shape, or form, that we live in today. From what "FlashForward" showed.

Looking forward to "FlashForward"

I'm going to test the spoiler font function so that newbies can see what it looks like, cause there will be lots of it on this page tomorrow night.

this spoiler is just a test

::this is a test::

When you see the blank space, put your cursor on the start point, left click and drag across the whole space to reveal what's written underneath.

Also, when you choose to write a spoiler and font it, give a heads up of what type of spoiler it might be. I said the above was just a test, so those trying to avoid spoilers know it's actually safe to look at it if they are really interested in my spelling or grammar or some such. Tomorrow, nearly all the spoilers will be about the show currently airing, but at the end of the episode, there will be a preview for the next week, if you decide to mention the preview, spoiler font it and preface it with 'this is next week's preview' so that folks not wanting to be spoiled can choose to look or not.

*high fives Diablita*

It's been fun watching the mods figure out how their purty colors aren't quite the same on this board.

HATTORIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII *tacklehugs*

Partyman... your nearly invisible rofl

hi yukailin

hi to those who know me.. and hi to those who
don't lol

Saw a commercial of this show this week, just in time for the premiere! Hopefully this hooks me like Lost did.

Ready to Go!!!

Greetings Hattori, now is a great time to play around on the TB, once the show kicks in, it may just get a wee bit crazy around here.

Whoa, this has been up since July and I just found out about it today. Man, no one tells me anything.

Well, I haven't been this excited about a premier since the other one!

and hello again to all who know me and just hello to all who don't

*doink*

cool!

So excited for the show

Now Mod Partyman, while secret Ninja assault mode does sound cool, I'd rather be able to SEE you when you drop your words of wisdom, or nonsense, or whatever.


q, yes, that went over quite well at the Paley screening of the pilot. Lots of giggles and snorts and pointing at the screen, to be sure.

*snickersnort* First 17 minutes
Oceanic billboard *giggle*

oooh look at all the pretty colors!

Just a week, I think I can hold out. sigh

You have 2 Minutes and 17 seconds to check out the newest (and GREATEST) Fan podcast for Flash Forward at www.FlashForcast.com

First seventeen minutes up on the ABC website for those who can't wait a week!

Aww, Carencey, you look all Cranberry now, how loverly.

Saw the pilot last night, you all are going to love it. Make sure to look at stuff in the background cause there are some cool Easter Eggs visible.

:( expensive dance class conflicts with both FF and Fringe's initial airings, alas. (Nah, not cheating on y'all with another show, just real life!) I should be able to get through it before the West Coast airing though, DVR permitting.

The pink is actually the same that I use on the Fuselage and Fringe Division, it just doesn't contrast with the gray very well. Have some darker pinks in mind that shouldn't be confused with hijinx's grapey font, but have to see which VIPs are using what already.

Oi, why so Pink, Carencey? Me thinks you need more oomph to your color on this board, to be sure.


As to the question regarding timeslots, I also asked over on the VIP thread and here is what DSGoyer had to say "The show is airing on Thursdays AND Fridays. Thursdays at 8:00, then again on Friday, at 10:00, I believe. But it's "home" is Thursday nights."

So, that should resolve things. As to moderating, you may end up having to visit both days, cause you know there will be Thursday peeps and Friday peeps bumping into each other here.


I get to see the pilot tonight, along with SamG, at the Paley Center Fall Pilot Preview event for ABC. Squeeeeee!!!!!!!!

Was in New York last week and was thrilled to see so many Yellow Taxis with Flash Foward signs on them!

Dumb question alert: I know the show starts on Sept. 24, a Thursday, and the TV Guide new season schedule shows it airing on Thursdays, but someone just told me the thought the show was moving to Fridays after premiering. So, can this be true, or is it misinformation?

*splort* That is brilliant, Kailin - and HAAAAAAAAAAAAPPY BIIIIIIIIIIIIRTHDAY!!!!! :D

Heehee, my Flash Forward had me hangin' out with my Brother - and an old High School friend - great, but not as cool as Middle Earth, man! :D

Bwuhahahahahaha, That's too funny. And mine is so full of Lord of the Rings stuff, including me hanging with a rather scruffy looking Orc. I guess I'm going back to Middle earth soon if this is a true look at the future. ;-)

HOLEY CRAP, QUINTON!!! Ok, that was one of the more freaky things - LOL!! I love how it puts stuff into even the little details - ya gotta look close and NOT BLINK. It knoooooooooooows me...wooooooo... :D

Just a heads up - ABC Inner Circle will screen the pilot of FlashForward this Sunday September 13th at 7pm TO 9:30 PM. You have to join, but they just ask you questions about the show. Will you watch again, will you recommend it etc.

Great site. Awesome to see the trailers on TV, and I am glad that I picked up the hidden URL while watching WipeOut last night. Not sure how closely you watched what your competition (Heros) did with their viral marketing, but I hope that you can keep it more interesting. The wiki and other tools that evolved when the other show first started had me spending hours getting psyched for the following weeks episode. I have been playing with computers for over 30 years both and home and at work and I really feel like some of these social networking tools are even more impactful than email was when it first came out. It all spreads in a FLASH (Pun intended).

Thanks to ABC, and especially the writers. How about a link to the book?

cant wait! CANT WAIT! cant wait for Flash Forward. i hope the premiere was a global event like the actual flashforward.

and it'll be sublime to see joseph feinnes every week

Quick question for John:

It states in the super-special official ABC.com
biography for your character that Demetri Noh
has a hard time saying no to karaoke. Does this
indicate a possibility of you singing?

Ooooops, and HI to you too, John (Cho), you're AWESOME and I can't wait to see you in Flash Forward! Sorry, didn't scroll down enough at first - LOL!

Take care!
Karen

Indeed - many thanks, Quinton! :) And oh my gosh - Sonya, thanks a million for coming by and I/we sure hope that's the first of many times...I know, it really IS weird and seems all void-ish, but yep, we REALLY ARE HERE! :D

Abrazos,
Karen

Thanks for the head's up Quinton!

Welcome Sonya! Thanks for stopping by. Really enjoyed you on LOST and excited to see you on FF!

Caught the preview on iTunes, and yes, I can see how the pilot is going to like one of the biggest events TV has ever attempted. Not since Lost decided to crash a plane on a beach have I seen a pilot that put so much action and effects into it's debut.

What are the complete list of titles for Flashforward and do you have teasers - log lines that you will post, if so when will they be made available? Like will you have something ready for the next 3-4 episodes on this site soon? I would love to get the titles and teasers... you only list the pilot, but, other titles are out on the net - like, White to Play, 137 Sekunden, and Black Swan. Still there are no one liner teasers for these, and I thought this site might be a great access point for that time of information.

Thanks,
Gail

Yes, Sonya, we are out here. And that's Ok if you don't know what Lost Labs has in store for Penny, it would be boring if we knew everything before it happened. I look forward to seeing you at the Paley Fall preview and then the premiere of Flash Forward a week later.

I'm very excited about the Metro Bus Adventure. It looks AWESOME!

Sonya Walger: Great to see you drop by!

I have absolutely loved your work on Lost and am growing more excited by the day for Flash Forward.

I am very glad that the airdate is fast approaching, the wait is killing me!

You have 2 Minutes and 17 seconds to check out the newest (and GREATEST) Fan podcast for Flash Forward at www.FlashForcast.com

Can't wait till the show starts!

Yes, Quinton, she really won one of the 4 Heroes Nissan Cubes. But my sister has Down Syndrome and no drivers license, so it took NBC legal and Nissan several weeks to decide if she was truly eligible, and they just told me Thursday night that she was. So, once we fill out and turn in the affidavit of eligibility and the W-9, we will be able to pick up the car.

So yes, contests like that really do work as they are supposed to. Now I just need her to pick my lotto numbers.

Check out my sister's comic con souvenir, or rather possible souvenir. It could look a little differently once we pick it up.

hi floks just new and checking in

vika, welcome to these boards, this show looks like it's going to be amazing.

I'm not sure if you have been around the Fuselage or anything, but if not, you may want to check out the site FAQ, especially regarding Spoiler Fonting and when to use it. A perfect example would be the information you just posted about character interactions in episodes that have not yet aired. Hopefully a Moderator will come along and spoiler font that for you, unless you set up a password and are able to edit the post yourself.

Again, the FAQ can help you figure out what I'm talking about here. That doesn't take away the fact that I am looking forward to seeing the same intelligent handling of this situation as you are. It just needs to be spoiler fonted is all.


Spoiler font alert to Hijinx, partyman, halfrek, carencey, etc.

Dudes, Im so excited about this show. I have mad love for Robert J Sawyer and I cant wait to see how this is fleshed out for TV.

I found out that Gabrielle Union and John Cho's characters will be a couple on FForward a couple of days ago, and I was so excited for that! Props to the writers, producers, actors etc for giving an interracial couple (of a less commonn pairing too!) visibility on mainstream tv. I have faith that the issue of an interracial relationship will be handled intelligently!

And I have a (completely unrelated) question for John:

I read a bio of you the other day, and it said you acted in the Singapore Repertory Theatre's production of Hamlet in 1997. As I was born in Singapore I'm interested to know if this is true!

hijinx--

We'll try ;-).

Yay, a mini explosion of chitter chatter, woohoo.

John, looks like you are going to fit in nicely around here, awesome. I loved the bit I saw at comic con and can't wait to see you and the others really flesh out their characters.


OMG, a Monte sighting, I don't believe it. The consummate lurker posting here, on this board. I just may faint. ;-)

Off to the TB then back to work.

So excited to hear from you, John! Be sure to
stop by more!

John:

per your "Seacrest Out" comment, PLEASE confirm that one of the unexpected benefits of the Flash Forward event is that there no longer is any reason to watch American Idol, since we all already will know the winner, and hence Ryan will henceforth have to rely solely on E! interviews with cast members of Star Trek if he hopes to garner ratings... ;)

J/K -- nice to see you make an appearance.

Looking forward to this!

So here I am doing a little online catchup on my day off, and I see that we have had a certain Mr John Cho drop by (flash by?) for a visit! Wahey!!!!

Jhon Cho: I am genuinely excited to see what you will bring to the mix in this show. Judging from the (limited!) info we have had so far it seems to be a great role to apply your versatility to. Glad to hear you are enjoying it so far., and thanks for stopping by. Don't be a stranger!

hijinx and q: *waves* Every time I visit this board I cann't help but wonder if a Giant Red Panda of doom will be appearing in my future at some point.


FF is now officially at the top of my must-see list of New US Shows. Which is quite a compliment, as I will be having to downsize the list this season due to the recession. ;)

I am liking the Mosiac website so far (though the background music is a little unsettling after a while, spoooooky). People I know are on there talking about their flashwords, it really is a small world!

oh hijinx you read my mind.
*giggle*

Hello John so glad you are here! Can't wait to hear more of your experiences.

ooh more episode titles would be lovely Quinton! Oh David Goyer....(in my best pleasant singsongy voice possible)

Just got myself a ticket to the Paley Center's Fall Pilot Preview event for ABC, which will include Flashforward. Wahooooooo!!!!!!!

I know that David Goyer confirmed that he and Sonya Walger will be attending, and hopefully they will screen the entire pilot, rather than just partial. You never know, they always do screenings and then a panel discussion.

This is confusing.

R.I.P. Eunice Kennedy Shriver, the only Kennedy I ever met. Having founded Special Olympics, something my sister has participated in most of her life, this is really sad.

I am living vicariously (via Twitter) through
the TV critics at the TCA ABC FlashForward
screening right now, and the feedback is very
positive!

"two thumbs up to Flash Forward pilot"
"I am on-board for "FlashForward."
"damn it's a great pilot!"
"thumbs up to Flash Forward pilot"

And so on. SWEET. And congrats!

That. Was. Awesome!!!!

Oh Quinton to be a fly on the wall of THAT office. ;)

I swear, that is one of the most brilliant 'sorry I can't be there' videos I've ever seen at comic con or any other convention.

*snicker* THAT was brilliant. Thanks hijinx for posting it.
Bahahahahah...

I haven't seen anything or read the book, just what I've gleaned on this page so far... scanned the threaded... I'll just keep checking in...

In the worst thing to be doing during the Flash,
someone asked if animals also flashforward.

I would like to ask that we see a Flash Forward
from the POV of a yellow lab. Named Vincent.

Please and thank you. :)

I'll second that WOOT, Quinton!! Excellent, EXCELLENT exposure with that buidingboard (I LIKE that term a LOT), YAY!!!

Thanks so much, 'Jinx for posting it, and wooooohoooo Marc for sending it to ya! :D

I saw some amazing clips at Comic Con (Lost, Doctor Who - "I am The Master!") but Flash Forward was the biggest best surprise. I will be glued to the screen when the full pilot airs, after having told everyone I know to be watching as well. THANKS by the way for telling us that every flash has an actual story, and that you DO know the ending - I've been spreading that news as well!

QPeeples, whereabouts on Sunset? I'll be up at the Arclight tomorrow, so I might try to scope it out if it's nearby.

For those in L.A. a huge building billboard on Sunset Blvd. Woot!

Gotta say, I'm looking forward to this show so much. I was at the panel at Comic Con and it looks pretty awesome!

Those are some pretty colors hijinx and karri!

Hi JO! Curious to see if your story gets picked up heehee!

Hello Seth, Quinton & everyone behind the scenes!

After being blown away by the FlashForward scenes that you unveiled at Comic-Con, I am even more intrigued by the possible character connections and Easter Eggs. I was very impressed by the cast chemistry both on the panel and in the press room (especially John Cho & Joseph Fiennes), and look forward to watching that interaction on screen. Of course, the addition of Dominic Monaghan is a tremendous bonus, as well as Gabrielle Union. I am also a big fan of Sonya Walger, and thought her Comic-Con video was hysterical.

Will Alex Kingston play a recurring character, or Shohreh Aghdashloo?

As for recording my personal FlashForward video at the Mosaic Task Force booth...what a fascinating and fantastic interactive experience! It will probably be obvious that I watch far too much television, because I feel as though my story consisted of vignettes from various sci-fi series', inadvertently pasted together in a three minute ramble. :)

I look forward to reading the posts here and on the threaded board - thank you for letting us in on the ground floor!

So happy to see this show coming on. Loved Sawyer's book and realize the series will be different (that always happens when adapting a novel for anything), but what a fantastic idea for a show.

Seth-Nice ta "meet" you, and good luck with
the show. I'm definitely looking forward to it.
It's an intriguing premise, and also a show
loaded with on and off screen talent.

To answer your question, I'm very interested
in how this show sets up its
mystery/mythology and carries it through
from episode to episode. It certainly seems
like every show of this type has to meet the
challenge of how much to reveal and how
much to hold back. It's certainly a fine line
between raising the audience's curiosity and
frustrating them.

I saw the message boards up the other day, didn't occur to me that the linear board would also be up.

Hello to my fellow Lostkateers from the Fuse, and hello to the early bird VIPs who have all jumped in with both feet. This is going to be fun, being able to talk shop a bit before the show starts so you all have a real feel for what our reactions mean in the general scheme of things.


I was also at comic con and was so glad I made it to your panel. The first two acts looked great. Since I live in LA and the show is set here, I can't tell you how creepy cool it was to see some of that action in locations I know. In fact, I think I'll be the first to pull out some spoiler font and ask a more specific question.

::So, with the big car wreck on the overpass over the 110 freeway in Downtown, and the reveal that there were wrecks all up and down the 110, all the side streets, etc, did you CGI all of that, or did you get to close down the freeway for a day to film some of that stuff? ::

Oh, and I loved Sonya's video greeting of the comic con crowd, that was truly a classic comic con video.

I'm sorry I never made it to the booth, I didn't actually know where it was.

Book really ROCKED!! I listened to it on my MP3 and loved it. Should make a super show..

Seth, good to see you on here! You ask a great question...

I think for me, I just want another great quality show to watch, and this is one that has a really interesting concept as the previews have shown, so I'm looking forward to seeing how the premise of the show will be executed in the episodes. I'm also looking forward to meeting a new set of characters. As you know, we all become very attached to the characters we like. By the looks of it you have some great actors on the show which I'm sure will bring out lots of emotions in people, and that is just awesome. :D

Hey there, Seth, thanks and happy to meet you! I agree with Starrox that I'm just anxiously awaiting more exposure to the show, but I guess my answer is that I can't wait to meet the characters - I'm a people person! People and their reactions in the face of circumstances that take them way out of their personal "boxes" - now that's good drama in the making, right?

If you're proud of it, that's the best sign - we'll be proud of it too, I'm sure. Your viewers are/will be a bunch ready to be challenged - you'll pull it off, never fear!

Difficult question, Seth! I think for me, it's still the whole concept as such at this point. But that might obviously change once I've actually seen more than just those short trailers! So please ask me again in two (gah!) months... ;-)

Damn right y'are, Hijinx! :D Oh man...giiiirl, I hope to do lots more than just check things out, you know moi! ;)

Hi!!! Had to come say hey and that it's SOOOOOOOOOOO exciting looking forward to Flash Foward, and I CAN'T WAIT to start watchin' and interactin'! :D My GOODNESS, and it's wonderful to see all ye creators here, thank you!

Thanks for the annouce on the 'Lage, Hijinx...wow, YOUR birthday and you give US the present - you're the best and have a very happy one!

Ooooh...shiny!

Welcome, Marc and Seth. It's awesome that
you all are getting involved!

A question for our soon-to-be-in-color
VIPs, to start more balls rolling... What one
thing about the show are you most looking
forward to?

And, Lysh, I was totally thinking
omgwtfpandabear! and then I see you wrote
it!

Brought to you in association with "Is it 2004 again?":

OMGWTFPANDABEAR!

JOpinionated Loved all your stories from SDCC. Really appreciated your booth interview "What did you see" as well. Made me really wish I was there despite the crowds!

Welcome Seth! Have fun looking around. Quite a friendly bunch. :)

This is very cool - I can't wait to follow along and contribute when possible!

The FlashForward footage that I saw at Comic-Con was incredibly compelling and beautifully shot; I am in for the long run (which is 21 years, if you ask Courtney B. Vance). Easily the best new series footage I've seen since the Lost pilot in 2004. Thank you so much for sharing it with us!

Hey guys! Just testing this new LB... Welcome Marc! It'll be great to pick your brain now and again ;)I already picked David's brain in his forum :D

Maybe this time I'll get the hang of the LB *lol*

I get the same feeling Starrox!! Surr!! It has been so long.
BrerMatt : you are quick on the spoiler font!

Welcome Marc,Quinton and David!! Prepare to be pounced when those colors arrive. Lurkers come out of the shadows to ask questions. Which I am sure hijinx has already informed you. Glad to see you here gents. We appreciate the interaction!

Evil, you guys are evil! *g*
But anyway - welcome to the board, Marc!

I am so excited about this show! But let it be
said that I hope Demetri's vision doesn't come
true/mean what I think it means.

Welcome, Quinton and David! Thank you for the
sponsorship.

I'm looking forward to the interaction on what
promises to be a great show!

FlashFORWARD? More like FlashBACK!

*trips back to 2004*

New board, mostly familiar names... Is it 2004 again? *g*

BrerMatt *LOL!*

wow... haven't done that in ages.

I have an IMPORTANT announcement about
FlashForward:

*I'm the first to post in spoiler font
here!!*

That is all.

Hmmm... This is new... ;)

speaker I saw those tat sleeves too! wicked cool.

sorka, hijinx a good book to check out, eh?

I am so looking forward to this new series since the book was a great read.

@hijinx - hey, coat tails are REALLY comfortable!

Plus, I've been working on my upper-body strength so I'm pretty sure I can hang on the whole way this time ;)

DUDE! David Goyer has tat sleeves! That's wicked awesome!

This is oddly... familiar...

Come to the Threaded Board

oooohh... pretty!

Please, Please tell us about Comic Con. I can't wait till September.

Amazing Comic Con panel! THANK YOU! I've informed my husband that we must get a giant screen HD tv before the premiere!

Yay! Looking forward to getting all the dirt here. Ridiculously jealous of the folks who were at CCon
