FlashForward fans plan to fall over and act unconscious

Blastr — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 14:00:00 +0000

FlashForward's fiercest fans are not giving up on their favorite show. Not only are they shipping 20,000 friendship bracelets—similar to the one Joseph Fiennes' character, Mark Benford, was given by his daughter on the series—to ABC Entertainment chairman Steve McPherson, but three days from now they're planning to stage a blackout of their own.

According to Variety, fans of the show will assemble in front of ABC network and affilate offices in New York, L.A., Chicago, Detroit and Atlanta on June 10 and for 2 minutes and 17 seconds are going to pretend to be passed out—just like the 2-minute-17-second blackouts on FlashForward.

5 reasons why FlashForward deserved to fail

Blastr — Sat, 29 May 2010 14:00:00 +0000

In the end, we didn't need a flash-forward to see it coming, and I'm not talking about how the finale went down. ABC's FlashForward started off all filled with our hope and expectations—and to the tune of 12.5 million viewers watching. However, fewer than 5 million people tuned in for the final episode, "Future Shock." In many ways it was a very sad ending for the series.

Did you catch last night's episode of FlashForward? If so, you must have felt pretty lonely. The series ratings fell to a new low, and we don't have to leap ahead 2 minutes and 17 seconds to see what that could mean.

FlashForward’s future isn’t what you thought it would be

Blastr — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 16:57:01 +0000

The characters on ABC's FlashForward are getting increasingly tense as the big blackout date (the date almost everyone on the planet saw in a future vision when they blacked out for 2 minutes and 17 seconds) approaches. That date, April 29, just happens to be a Thursday, the same day that the series airs. It all seemed like karma to the producers ... until they realized that the show's April 29 vision date wouldn't quite be able to match up to the real April 29.

FlashForward’s stars: Why we need a second season

Blastr — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 14:00:00 +0000

The ratings for FlashForward's return on March 18 don't bode well for the show lasting past this season. We're still with it, and we hope more viewers catch on. Even if they resolve the mysteries of the blackout by the end of this year, there is so much potential for more story that we want them to do it all over again.

The stars and creators of FlashForward gave us more reason to be excited past April 29 when they presented a panel at The Paley Center for Media's PaleyFest2010 on March 11. Season one is moving toward April 29, where the characters will find out if they could change their future or not.
