Flash Forward was a great concept and a good show, certainly worth watching. "V" is another story and it is a shame the network tried to promote both at the same time instead of giving Flash Forward the support it needed.

I mean, I'm aware of both shows returning as I am an avid Lost fan and they promoted the show plenty during last week's season premiere. I'm just not interested in going back. Flashforward had a mildly interesting start but I quickly gave up and as I understand it there's been little reason to go back. V has just been an insult to anyone who had fond memories of the original miniseries, or anyone who can think beyond empty sloganeering for that matter. What a waste of Lost vets like Sony Walger, Dominic Monaghan, and (most of all) Elizabeth Mitchell. Mitchell left Lost for that?? Anyhow, while I doubt Flashforward can regain its footing, losing both Goyer and Guggenheim can only help. Other than the two Nolan Bat-movies, which Goyer's only had a hand in writing, he hasn't done anything else that's good. Seeing his name attached to the Magneto and ill-advised "Supermax" projects tells me those films need to be scrapped. I'm surprised that Guggenheim actually got another TV gig after that turkey called "Eli Stone" got shitcanned. I know Guggenheim's on the GL movie project too... I can only hope that's better than anything else of his I've seen or read. True enough, Robb, though if either show were actually any good I might’ve gone back.

Well, maybe putting them both on hiatus until late March has made viewers not want to go near the damn tent? “ABC has had a hard time promoting both FlashForward and its other tentpole genre title, V.”
