1. i like it

great premise, but I have no idea how they plan on running multiple seasons on this one event.

I just saw the Seth Mcfarlene (sp?) from Family Guy, cool!

13. Quite good. Reminds me a bit of "lost"

The first 15 min were so convoluted, and so many characters, that I intend to watch it again, either tomorrow or online.

18. Why Flash Forward will ROCK like LOST...

On the show LOST, the Losties and the viewing audience was given no clues. Nothing. the viewers along with the characters had to do their best to glean any info from even the most ridiculous event or item.

On FLASH FORWARD, we have the opposite. We are given a wealth of clues but none of them make sense. We the viewers now have to try and piece together what everyone saw and try and glean a conclusion from what we have been given so far.

TIVO is your friend. There was so much information on the first show that all of it made no sense.

Isn't it great!!! LOL

19. Right. Watched it again this evening and realized some things (spoiler)

that did not catch on Thursday.

Two questions: is the father of the boy who was rushed to the ER the same one whom "Olivia" (aka "Penny") sees in her flash forward?

What happened to the boyfriend of the baby sitter? He did not just get up and ran away when he woke up, now, did he?

25. I am not sure whether he was aware of this at the time

The boy recognized her, called her "Olivia," but she said that she had no idea who that new man was. Obviously, next week, once they meet it will be different.

Same with the woman detective who had a flash forward that she is pregnant but today does not even have a boy friend.

And I think that this is the attraction of this program: they have flash forward and for many there are people whom they have yet to meet, if at all.

26. right when the father heard the Dr's name, they flashed forward to the living room scene. I

assumed he recognized her name and was recalling his flashforward...but I could be wrong.
