Will Flash Forward Make a Good Series?

May 14, 2009 6:39:34.800

Spotted in SCI FI Wire:

The show, based on Robert J. Sawyer's novel, deals with what happens when everyone on Earth briefly falls unconscious at the same time for 2 minutes and 17 seconds. During those moments, people see what happens to their lives six months in the future.

I liked the book a lot, and have always thought that it would make a good movie, or perhaps a short miniseries. I'm just not sure about the story's staying power over a 20+ episode season...

Jim, it's a sci-fi show. There's no reason to think that it will last an entire season. (On Fox, there'd be no reason to bet on more than 10 episodes.)
