Flash Forward's First 18 Minutes Up On Hulu - September 17, 2009

Flash Forward. Lots of hype on this show that is about to premiere. I’ve been following the hype of it since the networks released their schedules back in May. ABC is definitely hoping that this will be their next huge hit to replace Lost once it is gone. Well, it does have ties to Lost including two actors from the show. If you are fans of either Charlie or Penny on Lost, you’ll be happy to know that Dominic Monaghan and Sonya Walger will be appearing on Flash Forward. However, I read in Entertainment Weekly that it will be a bit before we see Dominic on there. I really enjoyed the article that they had in this week’s TV fall preview issue about the show. It got me even more interested in checking out the premiere of it. If you aren’t familiar with it, the basic idea of the show is that everyone blacks out world wide for two minutes and seventeen seconds. In that time period, everyone sees a glimpse of their future. Was what they saw a good thing? Bad thing? Confusing? People see themselves dating other people. Some see their dreams coming true. Some see things that make absolutely no sense. Some see really bad things. Then, everyone is trying to figure out what happened in that 2:17 while everyone was blacked out. It definitely sounds really interesting. The show premieres next Thursday, September 24 at 7pm central time on ABC. I’m very excited about this as ABC has put up the first eighteen minutes of the premiere on Hulu to view. I wish more networks would do sneak peek kind of stuff like this. There are several shows that I have gotten hooked on lately due to sneak previews that I might not have checked out normally, I have checked the Flash Forward sneak peek out and liked what I saw.
