Re: Anybody watching Flash Forward??
said by lotusracer  :... As far as can he change his future, exactly... can anybody? Should anybody? The question that made this show interesting to me, before I even saw the first episode.

Could also be that knowing about his death leads to the change in his choices that actually cause his death.

The core mystery is interesting (I think it was some kind of time machine/nuclear physics experiment), but stretching it to a whole season (or more) is way too long and they're filling the time with too much bad-disaster-movie-drama-filler. Both of the first two episodes have had me bored way too much. I'm going to stop bothering with it soon and just wait for the ending (if there is one).

I really like the premise... whether or not they pulled it off is another story... I'll be watching this for sure though.

Its certainly a watchable show... but it was made clear that this would be the show to replace Lost, so don't expect it to be over for a while.
Also expect it to get quite far fetched like lost did. Once you get past the obvious, it gets weird. |

"Reefer Madness"
Lecturer:
Creeping like a communist, it's knocking at our doors
Turning all our children into hooligans and whores
Voraciously devouring the way things are today
Savagely deflowering the good ol' U.S.A.
It's Reefer Madness, Reefer Madness
(Reefer Madness, Reefer Madness)
Oh so mad!
See the kids! Precious kids!
Yes, their heads are on the chopping block
and someone's got to dare to take a stand
Can't ignore any more, it could be your son or daughter
With a deadly stick of reefer in their hand!
They're heading straight for
Reefer Madness! Reefer Madness! Reefer Madness! Reefer Madness!
Save our kids!
Stealthy as a socialist, it slithers up our shores
Turning all our children into hooligans and whores!
This smoking bowl of evil bears the choking stench of sin!
It burrows like a weevil under tender Christian skin!
This...
Reefer Madness! Reefer Madness! Reefer Madness! Reefer Madness!
Oh so mad!

She said he got shot in the chest.. maybe he starts wearing a vest?
Maybe he is lying about not having a flash, maybe he is lying about blacking out. He could be one of the awake people.

Kumar is currently working for the People of the United States [Meaning Obama appointed him to an office]. Hence Kumar was killed off on House.

Now that you mentioned it, I remember that my first reaction was asking why Noh (John Cho) did not try to wake his trapped partner Mark Benford (Joseph Fiennes) and get him out of the overturned pursuit car...instead, he was around elsewhere. |

He was awake. If he wasn't, he was dazed & confused when he came to, not thinking about JF.

said by Snakeoil :Walter is a crack pot on Fringe... I about tripped when he licked a "red" gem stone last week. We knew it was hardened blood, but he didn't as of yet. "Hmm tastes salty"... He is great. I look at walter as the Denny Crane of Fringe. LOL!! That's true. He is sort of like Denny Craine.

If it were me, I would disappear a few days before my projected death and stay isolated for a few days afterwards. Completely off the grid. No phone, no internet, no nothing. That would be my best hope to avoid the possible murder.
