It's a shame if they cancel this show after just one season. It has a lot of potential on long run. Clever and interesting story with ability to last for at least 3 seasons, fine characters and acting (with one exception - although I highly appreciate Joseph Fiennes, I just can't figure out what happened to his acting skills here, he's so artificial, unconvincing and sometimes annoying with his face expressions?!) Not the best show on the Earth (there's no best show on the Earth if you ask me;) but better than many more that last for years. They should give this one better chance, I'm still confused about really big break at the end of 2009, I don't think it did this show any good. Overall 8.5 and I really hope they'll change their mind and let us enjoy at least season 2
I really liked the show and actually I thought it could be a replacement for LOST... I think FlashForward had a great storyline and it could become one of those famous TV shows if people had supported it a little... when I found out that it is canceled I was shocked and surprised to see such a perfect show canceled. I am really frustrated. I just want to say that I am really sorry for American audience who are only interested in black and white... Little Gray makes thing interesting and adventurous... How come you like TV shows like GLEE, ONE TREE HILL which have very boring and lame story line but not TV shows such as FlashForward which got a little mystery in it... I hope you change this attitude and be little more supportive of these shows which lots of efforts and time are spent... U SHOULD BE ASHAMED ....
I wasn't expecting much from it at the beginning, but it turned out to be great. Good story, enough mystery to keep you interested, good performances.
Joseph Fiennes, John Cho and Dominic Monaghan have done a great job, with natural and good emotional acting. It was a pleasure to watch them every second.
One of the best, original shows I've ever watched.
I'm so sorry that ABC killed it after 22 episodes. After Kyle XY, a very promising show is again canceled. I'm glad I watched it, but I wanted more...

What did I just watched. Ok. Its 2010 cgi and storytelling and look/feel is old as well. But come on. This should have had a season 2. Maybe a reboot can help with all the streamers these days. Or just a season 2 with a new cast. We can handle it. But it was a pleasure to watch this for the first time. Even it was 12 years later.
Put simply, this show is/was on point. It was gripping and intriguing, full stop. Yeah, sure, there was an episode here, and maybe there, where one can come down on the acting/plot if they REALLY wanted to; but apart from that, this show is fantastic.
I watched it back in 2011, and I decided to watch it again now, because I was telling a friend about it... I loved it now, as much as I did back then.
I'm posting this now, trying to do my bit in the encouragement of it's return. This show DESERVES a 2nd season, without question. Well done David S. Goyer and Co.
