What episode

I haven't seen this show in years but I really loved it. There's a scene from an episode that's been stuck in my head but I can't seem to find it . If I remember correctly it was at the end of the episode and it's a shootout in a parking garage . I remember Stanford being particularly cool and everyone being pretty he happy at the end. If you could tell me the episode, if greatly appreciate it.

I had a flashforward? Want to find people like me who have experienced similar things

To start this off believe me or don’t I don’t care this has/is happened/happening to me and I don’t know what to do about it nobody believes me. I just want to talk to other people who have experienced this. I’m 16 years old. Over the course of the last Couple years I’ve had flashes like flashbacks of things I’ve never seen before or things that don’t exist on this planet this will happen around a couple times a month but it does sometimes happen multiple times in a day sometimes.I understand what the mood/vibe of the situation is sometimes it’s guilt, extreme sadness, anger, frightened just huge extreme emotions. If I had to try and explain exactly what happens sometimes when I blink instead of seeing black, I see like a flashback of something I’ve never seen or can’t explain and I never really thought anything of it intel yesterday night. One of the times I saw a flash I was at the Cincinnati Zoo on a trip and I saw someone and blinked and saw a flashback (I don’t really know what to call it) and the emotion that came attached with it was a overwhelming since of dejavu like I had seen that a million times and it kinda freaked me out a little bit. it’s extremely random and if you were to try and tell someone about it they would just think your crazy so you have to keep it to yourself and I’m sick of it. And then the same one the next day at cedar point. But reason I brought this particular instance up is because, yesterday 2 of my friends invited me to the fair Cason and Jesse and Cason greeted me at the gate and we rode a ride together and then I saw Jesse went to go say hi Cason saw his group of friends left and left. so I hung out with Jesse and we hung out the whole time together we got in line then the ride closed because it started raining and there were harsh winds so they closed it before we got on it. But we they housed everyone in a big building so they didn’t leave so me and Jesse left the building and went back with his family and they were sitting in a barn with a set of bleachers and we sat and talked for 45 minutes ish. Then they opened up some rides we rode one then the rain picked back up so we had to go back for another 30 - hour and we saw Caleb Max and Tristan so they sat with us and just talked which was honestly the best part I really enjoyed just talking with Jesse. The rain slows back down but still raining we ride 2 more rides me Jesse max Caleb Tristan and some friends of friends then I left my bag so I went to go get it I’m like 15 seconds behind. I walk for 5 seconds realize where is Jesse? And then turn around don’t see him and turn back then start to keep walking again. Then I think I hear my name so I look back again and boom like when I’m like 90% done turning around I see what I saw a month ago twice at cedar point and the zoo. So I had not a flashback but a flash forward. like there were different colored lights but they were all the same exact color everything was the exact same and I get the dejavu feeling again but like 3 times as intense which I would have thought to been impossible. And I had to make a decision right then and there go see what I thought called my name I didn’t see Jesse or just catch up with max Caleb and Tristan. I caught up with them because I didn’t want to be by myself if I didn’t find him. We meet back up after I ride a ride with them and then me Jesse and 4 other people ride a ride called sub zero then he says let’s go to the green wheel after this. once we get off I go to the green wheel and he calls me where am I at and I tell him green wheel and so he comes running over and I see him running like 1000 feet felt like a movie. We ride it and then he has to go and so I walk with him tell he gets to his car and tell him goodbye. Sorry for the long story but this is the first time I’ve actually seen a flash forward in real life. it’s all I can think about and I just want to talk to someone else who has experienced something like this because I hope I’m not the only one. If you haven’t experienced this please please please please don’t try and lie and say you have had a similar experience and make it up. this really has happened to me I’m 16 male I want to talk to people who have seriously experienced something like this.

Finally got to watch FF

I remember when this came out in 2010 in australia. I was hooked after the first ep and then the time slot got later every week and after about 6 eps it just vanished until I stumbled across it on Disney last week… I just finished watching the last ep and now I’m devastated there’s not a season 2. wtf were they thinking when they cancelled it! So many questions left unanswered. Would be awesome if one of the streaming services would continue it, don’t like the chances though.

Just watched for the first time

I remember when the show first premiered, I watched a few episodes but I was never really into following any shows for 22 weeks lol. There are a lot of shows now I'm watching that I just didn't have the intention span to continue for that long.

But I'm glad I finally did watch it via Disney. Defintely one of the best sci-fi shows out there and probably one of the more original premises though there are some questions felt in terms of the big picture that weren't answered, unless I missed it somewhere.

That said I think this show would have done very well broken down into shorter seasons and with streaming. Every episode was fast-paced and packed with details and revelations. But i think it's a lot to follow over 22 episodes if you didn't have the luxury of streaming back to back. So I can see why the rating fell off.

I wish there were a lot more where these came from. But oh well.

ChatGPT's season 2 plot

Season 2 would pick up where the first season left off, with the characters still grappling with the fallout of the global blackout and the visions of their own futures that they experienced. As they try to make sense of what they saw, they begin to realize that their actions in the present can have a profound impact on the future they saw.

Meanwhile, a new threat emerges as a group of scientists and government officials reveal that they have been secretly working on a technology that can manipulate people's future visions. They believe that this power can be used to prevent disasters and ensure a better future for humanity, but their methods are controversial and their motives unclear.

As the characters investigate this new threat, they discover that their own visions may have been manipulated or altered, raising questions about the nature of free will and the ethics of using this kind of technology.

Throughout the season, the characters grapple with these questions and with their own personal struggles. Relationships are strained as they try to reconcile their visions of the future with the reality of their present lives. And as they race to uncover the truth about the new threat, they must also confront the possibility that their own actions could inadvertently bring about the very disasters they saw in their visions.

Ultimately, the season would build towards a climactic finale, in which the characters must make difficult choices about their own futures and the fate of the world. Along the way, they will be forced to confront their deepest fears and their greatest hopes, as they strive to create a better future for themselves and for all of humanity.

Anyone else revisiting the show on Disney+?

I haven't watched the show since the series finale in May 2010. I remember being so annoyed that FF was cancelled and V got renewed which would also end up being cancelled a year later anyway. 2010 was a weird year for network tv. So many networks trying and failing to recreate the magic of Lost. The FF finale was such a gut punch for fans who followed and supported the show. It pissed me off so much that I haven't watched an ABC show since. I just can't trust them to see a show through anymore. Maybe Season 2 could have been great maybe it could have saved the show maybe it would have still been cancelled a year later like V was well never know but damn it, it still deserved an ending.

Why was FlashForward got Cancel?

I don't get it, why it never got another season for? Near the end of the season, it only got 7.1 million viewers and so was cancelled, but shows like Batwoman got around 740k near the end of the season but yet it got another season. So why would some shows which have fewer views and people don't like, have a second season, but yet those who have views in the millions and people DO like get cancelled.

Autism and savants

I loved this show but if it was done today it would probably be criticised for giving the impression that all people with autism are also savants. In reality fewer than one in ten have some level of savant ability (admittedly more than I thought). The scenes at the psychiatric hospital implied that a lot of the patients were savants.

Anyway, sorry I needed to get that off my chest :) Great show and sucks that it was cancelled. I wish Netflix, Hulu or someone would give it a fresh crack.

Disney+'s Star catalogue contains FlashForward

Can't confirm for US viewers but here in the UK we have Flashforward on a streaming service for the first time (I believe) since 2010. Disney+ has just added it!

So much for 'no more good days'...

Wouldn't mind seeing HBO have a go at adapting the book

Like many of you I loved the one season ABC gave us but even then I feel like it was very dumbed down. The book asks some big questions but the show was made much more main stream in attempt to attract the Lost audience who were looking for the next big show. I feel like if anyone gave a revival/reboot another go. HBO could do it and give it the budget it deserves.

Would have been a perfect contender for a Netflix revival.

Been watching this for the 1st time since I caught the 1st episode in 2009. Amazed!

What a show! Originally, I caught the 1at couple episodes on TV but wasn't able to stick with it every week, so I never watched beyond the start of the story. As a fan of suspenseful sci-fi stuff, I'm eating this one up now! I found it after Googling NYC blackout stuff this weekend. I have just 2 episodes left now and can't wait to see what happens. I may read the book afterwards. This show, like other shows that involve time travel and related things, really got me pondering about our reality and experiences. Like what would we do if we got a glimpse of our future? From what I understand, the book has the glimpse be if a time 21.5 years in the future & was set in 2009. I would imagine that had the show used this timeframe, many more people would've saw nothing in their blackout as 21.5 years is so far in the future compared to just 6 months. Solving the mystery probably would've taken way longer or even been impossible due to the timeframe and not being able to connect the pieces over such a long timeframe. Mosaic would've needed to be open for at least the years which assumes people even knew it was that far in the future. Remember we right now don't usually have calendars & clocks on our walls anymore due to smartphones displaying the date & time, usually without the year. I sometimes wonder if our dreams may be a window into either the future or a parallel reality where things happened differently.

If you want something that's kind of similar...

The Manifest gave me the same vibe as Flashforward and it's still just getting started! It's on NBC, check it out!

Just posting to say I miss this show. It probably won't ever get revived but I'm gonna pop my disc in one of these days and rematch it for the third or fourth time.

Shame it got cancelled. We should start another change petition. And least you can do is tell your friends to watch it, both so they experience it and hell, maybe enough people will get interested to get a remake/continuation.

The end is near

I just saw the episode where Demetri gets rescued by Marc. When they saw the streamline of events it all ended up on one specific date... 16th December 2016. The end.
