A smartass remark from the female FBI agent assigned to the case, while crossing a corridor inside the prison:
- This place is full of ghosts. Wasn't it here where Sophie Scholl and all the rest of the White Rose nazi resistence group were executed?
The german liaison officer (performed by german film actor Thomas Kreutschmann) isn't pleased with the comment and says:
- If i am not mistaken, your country nearly irradicated its indigenous indian people and practiced legislated slavery for over 250 years?
Ralph Fiennes' young brother Joseph, FBI agent in charge of the blackout investigation, waters down the agitation:
- We also gave the world Britney Spears.
OK, so I'm irrevocably hooked on Flashforward. Somehow the series started airing more than a month ago and i resisted it without more than a shoulder nudge, but yesterday I ate almost three episodes in a row. It's like an overblown episode from The Twilight Zone, and the dice are still falling where they may.
Everybody in the world blacked out at the same time for a little over two minutes and saw where they were going to be in exactely six months. For some, this was a good thing, for others raised distrust about their own future. Some people didn't flashforward and they will be presumably dead at that point. And at least two people didn't black out. They were walking around while everybody else was on the floor.
I wanna know where this is going.
Based or inspired by Robert J. Sawyer's sci-fi's book Flashforward, this is the baby of David S. Goyer and Brennon Braga, and ABC's executive producer Marc Guggenheim saying it can run seven seasons, even though the events flashforwarded are coming to place inside the first season itself (six months). They say it's going to be bigger than Lost, I think it'll simply be different. At least Flashforward is filled to the brink with flashbacks like Lost.
