Sci-fi fans are a diehard group of people. Sometimes a show of solidarity works (hot sauce to save Roswell and nuts to save Jericho are the two big ones that come to mind), but other times it doesn't. It's also important to throw your support behind a show that's actually worth it, and personally I don't think Flash Forward is. It started off well enough, but quickly took a turn for the worst and ended up getting so bad I couldn't stand to watch it anymore.

I do have to give it to the show's fans for being pretty creative. I think the friendships bracelets are kind of cheesy, but having fans stage a mass blackout and falling down is actually quite cool.

Here's hoping the event works for the fans, but as for me I could care less about the return of the show. I just want to see the video of everyone falling down.

It was reported earlier this week, so it's not surprising to see the official word finally come from NBC regarding the fact that Chuck has been renewed. Hip hip hoo-frakking-ray!

In regards to more surprising news, ABC has officially ordered a second season of V, which reportedly being 13-episodes right now. The show hasn't been terrible in terms of ratings or content, but it hasn't been exactly stellar either.

As for news that was just a matter of time coming, ABC also officially announced that Flash Forward has been cancelled. It's about time!

I'm glad I got of this ship while the getting was still good, because I'm safe and snug in a life raft watching this monstrosity sink faster than the Titanic. Ever since the show's return from hiatus, it was easy to see where this show was going, as it was just one crappy plot development after another. The series hit its all-time record low this past week, when it pulled in only a "1.3 rating/4 share among adults 18-49 and 4.7 million viewers overall."

I wouldn't be surprised if the final episode(s) are ever shown on ABC.

If I didn't feel compelled to provide as much sci-fi/fantasy coverage as I can on this site, I do think this would've been the last episode you ever see reviewed on this site. I've seen some reviews that have praised this episode as "FINALLY" being back on track, but I have to wonder why they've suddenly becoming so forgiving. For the first time since the show has been back, it feels exactly like what the show is: a show in which the writers have had to grasp at straws and throw darts at story points after the original helmers fled the sinking boat. Watching Flash Forward is like watching someone trying to save the Titanic by scooping out water one bucket full at a time.

I absolutely loathed last week's episode and wasn't looking forward to watching this week's at all, but luckily it wasn't as bad. I don't think the show will ever be great, but at least it was tolerable this week. The sad thing is that tolerable isn't going to be enough to keep this show around for very long.

I find myself struggling to produce a review of Flash Forward this week. I was going to write a review and post it up on Friday, but when it came time to sit in front of the computer and do so, I didn't want to bother. As it turns out, waiting a few days didn't help the matter, because now I find myself lost and unable to hardly remember anything about this episode. I'd be surprised if this show lasts the whole season.

When Flash Forward returned last week, I think I had a flash forward in which I was no longer reviewing this show? Why do you ask? Because it seems that if last week's ratings - the lowest yet for the freshmen series - are any indicator, it looks like people either forgot about the show or quit caring. I think fans will be lucky if the show gets through a full season.

"The two-hour "FlashForward" (6.6 million viewers, 1.9 preliminary adults 18-49 rating) was down 10% from its last original episode back in December. If the show continues to perform at this level, the ABC drama's next blackout might be the show winking off the air."

Watching the return of Flash Forward this week was like playing a game of Russian Roulette. You spin the chamber, pull the trigger, and something interesting happens. You spin the chamber, pull the trigger, and then suddenly your mind is blown. The problem with this week's episode is that it filled the chamber up with so many mind-blowing rounds, it was too much to take and ultimately ended in a tangled, though somewhat entertaining, mess.

Jessika Borsiczky - Flash Forward's executive producer - revealed that when the first of 12 new episodes begins this week, "the creators promise a different show: faster, more answers, more action and more character." Borsiczky also revealed that several things will be answered before the season is done.

- Will learn if the future is true
- Who is behind the flashforwards
- What caused the blackout
- Who is Suspect Zero
- Does Olivia wind up with Lloyd
- Does Bryce find Keiko

While on the set talking about Flash Forward, Walger revealed that she will be returning to Lost this final season.

"I have been back, and I will be going back," Walger said during a press day for "FlashForward," which stars both her and Monaghan. She also noted that she'll appear in the series finale on May 23. "It's so nice to go back to -- I really have such a fondness for Penny and that whole storyline," Walger said. "I'm delighted and honored, honestly, that they wanted to tie it up and have me come back and finish it out.

Sonya Walger - who fans know best as Penny on Lost - revealed that James Callis (Apollo from Battlestar Galactica) will be joining the cast as a mysterious stranger. So what's so special about this guy? It seems that he's had multiple flashforwards before.

Despite being a sinking ship, Jessika Borsiczky and writer-producers Lisa Zwerling have just been hired as the new showrunners for Flash Forward. Of interest is Borsiczky, who is actually David Goyer's wife, who just left the show.

In other Flash Forward news, the 25-episode season has now been shortened down to 22 episodes.

You better get your Flash Forward fix while you can when the show returns, because with yet another showrunner is leaving - this time co-creator David Goyer; it looks like all the mice are abandoning ship before it all sinks and goes down. There's always a chance that this "could" be a good sign, but more than likely, don't expect Flash Forward to make it past a first season.

Flash Forward and V - two shows ABC hopes can grow to replace Lost after its final season - haven't met the greatest of successes yet. They haven't done terrible, but they haven't been as successful as the network was hoping for either. Still, despite growing problems, ABC isn't ready to give up on the two shows yet. The network has talked with the creators, know what their game plans are moving on from here, and they believe they've got some great stuff lined up from them.

ABC just announced that Flash Forward will be pushed back to March 18 - a delay of two weeks. The big news regarding this delay is that now the show's April 29th end-game date (in the show - the future everyone sees) might not actually air on April 29th our time. No reports as to why the decision to delay it another two weeks.
