One of the visions of the future involves a wife seeing a glimpse of her future lover ? a man her husband walks past unknowing in a hospital corridor. In addition to the FBI agents played by Joseph Fiennes and John Cho, there's their boss, Stanford Wedick (Courtney B. Vance). And Fiennes' wife (Sonya Walger) is a surgeon. She saves a series regular who was injured in an attack that resulted from the FBI investigation.

We will get quick answers to some questions early on, and it's not the sort of show where you'll be lost if you don't watch every episode. But devoted fans will be rewarded with more easter eggs and stuff. All of the questions raised in the pilot will be answered by the end of the season. The show is planned for five seasons but could go longer and shorter. Not only do the producers know how it ends, they also know how the penultimate season ends.USA Todayb>]

Sonya Walger describes her character: Olivia is a strong, complicated woman who's a working mother. She's a trauma surgeon and a loving wife. She's devoted to her work and trying to make time for her kid. Olivia's plate is full long before the flash forward happens I think.b>

Thanks to AICN for collating these snippets

Time Magazine says:

? I wish more attention had been paid to fleshing out the characters and generally bringing a fresher voice to the dialogue. (Someday, I want someone to bring a cool high-concept like this to a producer like Jason Katims, who can play it out realistically through rounded characters, as he did on Roswell.) ? Do I Want to Watch Another Episode? Absolutely. But please work on making these folks as appealing conscious as they are unconsciouUSA Today says:

From its unsettling opening image to its startling final shot, FlashForward could be the best network movie you'll see this year. Now let's hope it's an equally good series. ? may not keep you hooked for years or even months, but chances are good tonight's episode will bring you back next wThe New York Times says:s:

? begins in such a spirit of bracing suspense that I am challenged to recall another pilot that lured me so quickly into addiction. ? has the sobriety and charge of the best, early days of ?24? but builds its tension more gracefully and feels reluctant to be get subsumed by its own philosophizing. And like ?Battlestar Galactica,? its has a presumed message that is humanistic and uplifting: No single messiah can save us; it takes a village to save the world.

Dang, I didn't know it started tonight. I'll have to catch up over the weekend.

Encore tomorrow at 8, but I have to watch Smallville Season Prem...

I am sure the story is nice, but hate the directing style so far.

So, anyone want to discuss the Plot?

    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      By MacDaddyAz · Posted

      It does invite Linux because MS should have been improving their products all along these years instead chose to ignore the users now this year they’re making all of these improvements to their products where as Linux doesn’t have this kind of problems in fact it has gotten so good I can even play Windows games in Steam that I no longer ever needed Windows to carry on with my life, unlike you still use Windows and chose to try beat down down those who don't use Windows because they love their LG TV. (Surprisingly I actually own a 55” LED LG TV and it has been going strong for almost 14 years, longer than any Sony TV”)

      As much as I love owning my own hardware, it's hard to argue with the value. I'm not a huge gamer, I'd actually be interested in a cheaper plan with limited monthly hours, or even a pay-by-the-hour plan.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By leonsk29 · Posted

      Well, they (LibreOffice/The Document Foundation) are bitchy and whiny, yes, but they're right, at least this time. It doesn't make sense to market something as "free and open source to thwart dependency on foreign companies' software" but at the same time, using the formats of said companies (Microsoft) by default. That way, you are changing nothing, essentially, you're just using another UI. We all know that users just use the defaults and almost never change them. I'm not saying they should drop other formats altogether, but they shouldn't default to the thing they're trying to run away from in the first place. If you're gonna do something, just go all the way in, don't stop in the middle, IMO. Otherwise, shut up and move along.
