FlashForward (2009) Rewatch

FlashForward

2009-10 - 1 Season - 22 Episodes

(Warning - Unresolved cliffhanger)

(Description from Wikipedia)

FlashForward is constructed around a high concept narrative where a mysterious event has caused nearly everyone on the planet to simultaneously lose consciousness for 137 seconds, during which time people see what appears to be a vision of their own life approximately six months in the future: a global “flashforward”. A team of Los Angeles FBI agents, led by Stanford Wedeck (Vance) and spearheaded by Mark Benford (Fiennes) and his partner Demetri Noh (Cho), begin the process of determining what happened, why, and whether it will happen again. Benford contributes a unique perspective on the investigation; in his flashforward, he saw the results of six months of investigation that he had done on the flashforward event, and he and his team use those clues to recreate the investigation.

Gotta say I really, really like this short-lived series.
In spite of it being cancelled after the season’s cliffhanger finale,
I have watched this at least 4 times.

So now, for my 5th viewing -FlashForward.
