FlashForward: "Countdown" 5/20/10 - Grading & Discussion

[Aragorn]

Spoiler: 1x20: "Countdown"

While Mark interrogates Hellinger about the next Blackout, Janis and Simon secretly approach Demetri and ask for his help in stopping the coming event. Meanwhile, Aaron discovers why Jericho wants Tracy dead, and Nicole must make a fateful decision in her relationship with Bryce.

What are the odds that this season will end satisfactorily enough to act as a series finale? I always felt this show should've been a mini-series anyway.

Unfortunately, I believe the finale was filmed before the decision was made to cancel the show, so I strongly suspect we'll get a major cliff-hanger next week that won't be resolved, unless ABC decides to do a TV or DVD movie just to wrap it up.

That aside, I'm still looking forward to the final two eps.

 

[Procutus]

It's showtime, folks!

 

[Procutus]

Considering that this is 'D-Day', Mark seems fairly in control. Assuming that he hasn't taken a drink in all this time, I find it slightly hard to believe that he's going to be hitting the bottle in just a few hours.

 

[Procutus]

I'm sure he'll come later.

 

[Procutus]

Oh no, Sulu's going to spill the beans about knocking up the lesbian double-agent!

 

[Procutus]

Okay, I'm talking to myself here. Where are the all the FF regulars?

 

[Procutus]

Aaron's going bad-ass again.

 

[Trippy]

You knew he wouldn't 'live' happily ever after!

 

[Procutus]

You knew he wouldn't 'live' happily ever after!

You mean Dem? Yeah, greatly suspected it wasn't going to work out with Zoe.


Good to see you, BTW!

Actually, I was thinking that when the next blackout occurs, Dem has a FF and see himself sitting on the bridge of the Enterprise, eating White Castles with Kumar.

 

[Procutus]

Hey Trippy, are you feeling 'fringey' yet? I'm psyched.

 

[Procutus]

This guy is really starting to irritate me. I hope that Mark does rough him up.

 

[Procutus]

Okay, Mark's losing it.

Funny thing is, I have the feeling that the course of the day just changed with that little incident. Not sure how, just a gut feeling.

 

[Procutus]

Another damn vampire show? I've lost track of how many are on the air now.

 

[Procutus]

Damn, I actually thought for a moment that he was going to throw the flask in the trash.

 

[Tom]

Wierd.. I talking about the show not the fact Procutus is talking to himself. LOL

 

[Procutus]

Wierd.. I talking about the show not the fact Procutus is talking to himself. LOL

That's okay Tom, my wife thinks it's weird that I'm sitting here talking to myself.




Good to see you, are you ready for the Wally Bishop Show?

 

[Procutus]

Okay things are definitely changed if Tracy's really dead.

Not to mention that Janice doesn't look like she's going to have an ultrasound anytime soon.

But Mark IS drinking.
