This premier tonight, anybody else see it?
I thought it was very good show, it reminds me of the first episode of Lost, funny thing is two actors from Lost are there. Penny plays the main character's wife and Charlie will be appearing later in the show.
It plays again tomorrow I recommend checking it out.

I'm hooked already, I really want to see how this plays out and who was behind it all. Some of the imagery in the premiere episode was actually kind of frightening :eek.
My only reservation about the show is how long they can sustain it. But for now, I'm definitely along for the ride. So I seem to have a nifty double feature for Thursday nights, Flash Forward and then Fringe. Double the geekiness, double the fun! :D

Saw it, loved it. I'm hooked too. The preview of the season looked like its going to rock pretty hard, and I'm so happy that Dominic Monhahan (spelling?) is back on my TV.
The images of the city after the black out was pretty intense. And seeing that guy walking around in the stadium almost gave me chills. Woohoo! Can't wait til next week. :)

I really like it so far. Already a ton of questions are out there and you can see a few storylines already intersecting. Its 6 months away so I could imagine they could drag this out for a few years as long as they keep it fresh.

Seeing Jack Davenport on the small screen was cool, too. It was hard to recognize him from his turn in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. :)

His voice is very recognizable, though. :)

So Charlie from lost is the bad guy. That is a major shock.

I've been enjoying the show a lot, I'm still finding it to be really intriguing. And yeah, seeing that Dominic Monaghan is playing a baddie was pretty cool (although I never really did like Charlie on Lost all the much). Plus Commodore Norrington--uh, Lloyd Simcoe was apparently connected to the blackout? Do tell! :)

Please use spoiler tags, this is exactly the kind of thing they're there for since here in the UK, we're only three episodes in.

Actually the forum rule is after a TV episode has aired on the east coast of the US spoiler tags are not required.

So far the show is sputtering somewhat, I think, not keeping the momentum of the pilot episode. But I'm still watching, because I'm still curious to see how this all plays out. I just wish Joseph Fiennes' character wasn't such a dour sourpuss :grumble.
Even though it's been sputtering, I thought the final few minutes of last night's episode with Al's decision to commit suicide to change the future and save Celia was pretty powerful.

Yeah that was a major shock shows the future can be changed .

I LOVED this episode. Showing someone we care about finally trying to do something to change what they saw, and succeeding, was fantastic. And sad.
I thought it was good, and exactly what the show needs to do. So now we know that what happened happens isn't going to rule everyone's actions. And I like that it finally snapped Mark out of his 'mad at Olivia for something she hasn't done' funk, making him see that it isn't inevitable after all.

Just thought I'd drag this thread up and say that there's nothing worse than seeing a show start out with such promise and then devolve into crap so quickly. I almost can't stand this show anymore. But I think there's only 2 or 3 episodes left, so I'm going to hang in there until the bloody end just to see where it goes.
Rumor has it it's going to be canceled, and it won't break my heart if that happens.

I haven't watched this at all, and I'm not really finding myself inclined to... the people I know who have seen it didn't rate it highly at all.

It started out great, but I eventually got bored with it and stopped watching it.
