Associated Content Published May 14, 2010 by: Robert Dougherty Flashforward cancelled rumors were quite persistent all spring. The Flashforward cancelled outcome looked likely, given the free falling ratings ever since its premiere. However, since it was doing better overseas, some thought it had a good shot to return and cause more blackouts. But in America, the [...]

As the season progresses, I think Flash Forward is getting better and better. So we now know that the anti-blackout ring is a Quantum Entanglement Device; Janice is working for the FBI, CIA and a secret group; Olivia is the key to the puzzle; Frost used autistic savants in his flash forward experiments since they [...]
Flash Forward: Quantum Entanglement Device (QED) SPOILER ALERT!

Wow! What a shocker. Janis Hawk is a double mole. And, me thinks, will become impregnated by Simon. But that is not my topic of the night. We seem to have misinterpreted what QED means, so I will blog a bit on Quantum Entanglement. Quantum-mechanical phenomena such as quantum teleportation, the EPR paradox, or quantum [...]

In last Thursday’s episode of Flash Forward titled “Better Angels,” Mark shows Stan the Hydra Monster picture that would eventually end up on his Mosaic wall. The Hydra, as portrayed by 18th century French writer, Pierre Boaistuau, had seven heads and was eventually killed by Hercules. Mark then segues the conversation into D. Gibbons who he now identifies [...]

Perhaps Uncle Teddy got off easy. For two weeks in a row, FlashForward had their lowest ratings ever. Now I need to point out that they are going against the NCAA Basketball Tournaments in their time slot. You would have thought the network programmers would have been proactive and waited another month before bringing it [...]

By Lynette Rice, Entertainment Weekly March 2, 2010 3:28 p.m. EST (Entertainment Weekly) — Sci-fi dramas like ABC’s “FlashForward” may have a tough time attracting new viewers when it returns with originals on March 18. The freshman drama lost 43 percent of its viewers last fall while the network’s “V” was down 35 percent over [...]

Many-worlds is an interpretation of quantum mechanics that asserts the objective reality of the wavefunction, but denies the reality of wavefunction collapse. It is also known as MWI, the relative state formulation, theory of the universal wavefunction, parallel universes, many-universes interpretation or just many worlds. The original relative state formulation is due to Hugh Everett [...]

I have gotten a bit behind with my write-ups on Flash Forward since I have been out of town. I visited the Walt Disney Family Museum in the Presidio in San Francisco on Friday and will be blogging about that over the next few days. Jeff “Doc” Jensen of Entertainment Weekly has some theories about Flash [...]

While I take a couple of days to digest episode 8 “Rules of the Game” of Flash Forward, I leave you with an explanation of what QED is. While sniping back and forth during their poker game, Lloyd and Simon threw this acronym at each other. QED Q.E.D. is an abbreviation of the Latin phrase [...]
