This is a great show. I started watching it when I was home with Swine Flu and it definitely hooked me.

Yeah, I wasn't really impressed with it at first, but the last few episodes have been great.

I was so excited for this show, started this thread, but then quit on it after the 3rd episode. I thought the acting was canned, the writing was terrible, and the plot, while interesting and what got me looking forward to it in the first place, was being rushed. I thought it flat out sucked.

Has it improved? Should I go back to it?

^^^Yeah, it's been pretty good. A lot less "tension" surrounding Dem & Bedford's flashes now, so the "I have to keep this a secret from my wife/fiancée or she'll leave me!" drama is mostly gone. It's also really interesting to see how the characters have finally decided to approach/act on what they see in the future.

Commodore Norrington is really annoying me, though. He better get interesting in a hurry, because right now that is the worst part of the show for me.

I wouldn't. I quit watching after they revealed the one girl as a lesbian. The acting and writing are some of the worst I've seen in a while. Just before I quit watching I was thinking to myself, that Heroes seems like a fantastic show compared to this. And that was it.

Production suspended.

Another good show gone to waste due to bad ratings.

i heard it's only temporarily suspended and will be starting again soon, it will have a break, but they said they planned it that it could be the case, nothing is settled yet. apparently its only a 6 day production break.

Flash Forward resumes production on Monday according to a spokesman.

Series Finale was on tonight. Thought it was good episode until the ending part, didn't really close the story off, actually left me wondering for a series finale?

Needed one more season at least, going to miss it.. i know it had its down moments, but i actually enjoyed this series more than a lot of other out there.

Agreed.

Oh well. It will soon be forgotten with the likes of Space above and Beyond, and Invasion... Well those are the only two shows I've watched that only lasted one season.

I'm really disappointed that it was cancelled. I think I'm just going to quit getting into TV dramas. The two really good ones I've gotten into got cancelled, while so much crap gets left on there. Have to make room for "CSI: Omaha," "Generic Hospital Show 17," and "Really Cool Lawyers."

There are good shows out there that don't get canceled, you should just stop watching crappy programs.

Even when the show started - I wondered how it could sustain itself. What happens after the first season? Do they keep doing it over and over again? Honest question - not trying to ruin the thread.

While I enjoyed it - I also wondered this.

Maybe it died off when it should have.

Regardless, it was decent, it ended, and it's not coming back. That's enough of a reason to be a little disappointed.

They had a five year story arc set up, that was supposed to be kicked off by the season finale.
