I know someo of you are watching Flash Forward. I was about to give up on it as a Lost clone, but watched it last night because there was nothing else on.

Click to reveal..
Ok the show threw me for a loop last night. I kept thinking when he was at the edge of the building that he would survive it so he could be in London like he saw in his flash forward. When he jumped, until I saw him at the bottom, I was wondering how they were going to make him survive. Ok so he's dead now so it tells them that the future isn't carved in stone and things can change. It gave all those people who are stressed about things coming true, some hope. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing for the show. It did create some more interest for me in the show because now we know it's not all predetermined

Yep, love the show!

I personally think a theme that will emerge is the part of chaos theory stating "butterfly flaps wing leading to storm in Asia"... meaning small changes from the path that lead to the envisioned future, will lead to a much different future for many if not all people. Behavior is already changing due to the visions, so its almost inevitable the future wont be as advertised...just like where is the hovercars and jetpacks I was promised as a kid?!?!?!? LOL!

When I first started watching it, I figured that the flash forwards were just snapshots and didn't mean what they thought. Just like the FBI agents wife with cheating on her husband with one of the bad guys. My thought was that she wasn't sleeping with the guy, but there was something wrong with the little boy and she was taking care of him as a Dr. at her house and the feelings she felt were of admiration and respect because of how he was handling his son.

Last nights episode just threw everything up in the air. The Flash Forwards (like they said in the Terminator) are one possible future, but not necessarily carved in stone. It gave me more interest in the show because of that holy #%&*$# moment last night.

Over the last few years I've watched less and less network TV, but this show has me hooked. If any of you haven't been watching it, you can go to ABC's website and view the full episodes there.

This is one GREAT show!

I agree with the rest of you. Last night's episode really threw me for a loop. The old debate of whether or not the future is fixed or fluid could make for some wild plot twists.
