Review:I described the series as intense and gripping. I got hooked after watching it on it's first two episodes. The series was co-created for television by Brannon Braga known for his work on Star Trek TV franchise. The "black out experience" reminds me of the rapture described in the Left Behind book series and was just as tragic and chaotic. I can relate to the characters' struggles. Almost each character is bothered by their individual "flashforward" experience. What's really interesting here is that everyone who experienced the flashforward is now like a "prophet". Each has their own vision. Most are shocking, some consider it a blessing or gift. All we have to do is wait for April 29 and all will be revealed.
