So, are the guys in the weird masks the surviving members of the Triad?

Obviously a German skeleton is displaying the number three.

Oh shit... this has to be awkward.
 
Re: FlashForward: "Scary Monsters and Super Creeps" 10/29 - Grade/Disc

This looks almost like execution-style murders.
 
Re: FlashForward: "Scary Monsters and Super Creeps" 10/29 - Grade/Disc

Ok, did the show flashback tiwce to the girl thelling the kid "It's your house too."
 
Re: FlashForward: "Scary Monsters and Super Creeps" 10/29 - Grade/Disc

Probably because they didn't think we heard it clear enough the first time since the first was to show something else from Dylan's POV and the girl's line was background muffled.

I am getting very tired of shows ending with music the way they do it now.

It's still dumb to flashback to it twice in the same episode, minutes apart none the less, not to mention flashingback in the first place considering people watching the show know this already.

It's a good show but they need to stop treating the audience like a bunch of idiots.
 
Re: FlashForward: "Scary Monsters and Super Creeps" 10/29 - Grade/Disc

Okay, they're involved. I get it!
 
Re: FlashForward: "Scary Monsters and Super Creeps" 10/29 - Grade/Disc

20 million dead. Is that the first time we've heard that figure tossed out? I can't remember.
 
Re: FlashForward: "Scary Monsters and Super Creeps" 10/29 - Grade/Disc

I voted 'Average'. Not a bad ep, but I was really hoping for a bit more. Let's hope that next week's lives up to the hype they just pushed on us.
 
Re: FlashForward: "Scary Monsters and Super Creeps" 10/29 - Grade/Disc

I was enjoying this episode, up until the last ten minutes or so. Millions are dead, nations are on edge... I know, let's throw some dishes and then have a long, sappy musical interlude. Ugh. Mark is such a prissy little bitch. At least Olivia is trying to work through it, instead of just throwing tantrums. Since he's the lead there's no point hoping he'll be killed off, but I do hope he'll spend more time at work, where he's at least competent, and less time at home, where he's downright risible.

Looks like they're still refusing to outright contradict a flashforward by giving Janis some wiggle room with her damaged uterus. I figured that would happen at the end of the last episode, and again when she went back under the knife, but I'm mildly annoyed that they pulled back instead of going all the way. Meanwhile, the kidnap theory is out--the kids are hanging around the household, not looking particularly upset, and have either been there a while or Charlie's been told they're moving in permanently. It does make me wonder about Charlie's previous ominous hints about her flashforward--'no more good days', 'D. Gibbons is a bad man', etc, since nothing seemed amiss in the parts we did see and, where Simcoe was already on the couch when his son passed by, there can't be much more than a minute left to their vision.

I must say, when I first noticed that it was a Jewish cemetary, I thought they were going to try and link it back to that Kabbalah nonsense from a few episodes back. Glad that turned out to just be a coincidence.

And what's up with that guy on the bus? "I will end you." Nothing like death threats to spice up a trip on the old public transit system. Hope the driver called the cops.

Fictitiously yours, Trent Roman

These publicity photos are so weird half the characters look different. I'm shocked ABC is putting the show up against the World Series.
It seems that no network is willing to concede Thursday night after repeats all week everything is first run across the dial tonight.
 
Re: FlashForward: "Scary Monsters and Super Creeps" 10/29 - Grade/Disc

If the show wanted to be ballsy and make it a tragedy, they could end on a bad note (including Mark's death) and all of it happens because he followed his flash forward to the letter, thus making it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Then his brother, played by Ralph Fiennes, can avenge him in season two. :p
