The season premiere of ABC’s new program, “Flash Forward” was decent. When I watch any television show, I have to feel connected to the characters; even if the show is new. Sometimes instant connections don’t form but it helps me determine if I like the show and if I want to continue watching. So far from what I’ve seen of “Flash Forward” I will probably tune in again but I am hesitant. I patiently await the estimated ratings for this show. However, this show has to prove itself to viewers other than the notion of waiting to the season finale to understand why people are blacking out and seeing the future.
I am not sure if this show can have a future beyond April 29, 2010 at 10:00PM (that is the apparent doomsday for the entire world). I am so intrigued to find out how billions of people blacked out and had visions of the future. Anyway, I look for longevity in a show ( as I hope most people do) but it seems all shows are made to be canceled nowadays.
I am going to continue watching the show because I want to know how the FlashForward’s occurred and what is going to happen. This show is definitely different than any other show I ever watched. There is uncertainty that is attractive and it will draw audiences back I can guarantee but I still fail to see the future.
I am a bit perturbed that there is a suicidal doctor on the show but whatever floats the writers boats! The acting was okay for most of the characters. I am not seeing Emmy worthy material just yet but Emmy’s don’t mean much in my world. What needs improvement? The special FX are horrible…maybe I am being a bit kind but the FX needs a makeover. It looks like a baby edited the show…so easy a baby can do it.
There are definitely areas the show needs improvement, such as: special FX, acting, storyline cohesion, insight into the lifes of all characters and why they saw what will happen. I am most intrigued with the person who was left standing when the world fell down. This is sort of scary given all the terrorist threats lately.
Maybe there is a Pinky and the Brain scheme, world denomination. Or maybe an alien has invaded earth and looking to kill off all humans and resettle the earth with other aliens. There possibilities are endless and that is what is going to keep me watching the show this season. But what about next season?
