Positively Positive Review – Flashforward: No More Good Days

Joseph Fiennes in an apocolyptic LA in ABC’s “Flashforward”.
This review is going to be shorter than normal, not because I disliked this show, but because it’s so new to me I don’t have a lot to say yet. Once I get more into it (which I’m sure I will, judging by the first episode), I’m bound to have more to say about the characters, the plot, etc.
For now I’ll just say that I really enjoyed the premiere episode. I’m a sucker for anything that shows an apocalyptic future and this delivered. When I first heard the premise, I didn’t think it sounded that exciting. Intriguing, yes. Exciting? Not so much.
Well I was proven wrong in just the first few minutes. I had never realized the impact that could be made by every person on the planet losing consciousness at once. People died, planes plummeted, cars crashed, helicopters slammed into buildings. In a word, it was awesome! It was also very eerie seeing LA in the midst of all that destruction.
The characters are all still new to me, but I am definitely quite interested in a few. The man who saw nothing when he was unconscious, the woman who sees herself with another man, the man who sees himself working to solve the mystery of what happened. I can’t wait to see where they go with this and I for one am pretty much hooked already.
Overall a nice addition to ABC’s lineup and as a possible successor to the soon to be gone Lost, it’s got my attention
