Racialicious "FlashForward" S01E07 roundtable
The folks at Racialicious with another installment of their weekly FlashForward roundtable. I link because I still need my Agent Al fix, and you know they went heavy on the sad short life of our beloved Mr. Gough. Last week's episode was kind of a bridge to this week's, which I'll comment on soon. Yes, I was still decompressing from "the jump" and was also disappointed that his death was treated so casually. No funeral, memorial, dirty rice cookout tribute? Then again, such nonchalance was expected as business returned to normal so quickly despite the deaths of 20 million people during the blackout. Way to go, FBI. They are either super efficient or don't know what the hell they're doing. Anyway, I'm still holding out for some pseudo-science wrinkle in time or some alternate reality that will allow Al to be resurrected, but...maybe I wish for too much. Lee Thompson Young's departure might be forgiven if they replace him with another good looking not-so-Caucasian male of similar build. Just saying.
