Is anyone going to watch this on Monday night? Has anyone seen it already in the US? I can't work out if it looks good or crap.

So much letching potential in one programme though, Im gutted.

I cant choose in first betweeb Mark and Dimitri and then Llloyd and then probably Simon because hes much 'dirtier' than he was in Lost and I think he'd be quitea good rub
Maybe I'll have to do Mark and Dimitri ....together

Sorry was I off topiuc there, yes they obviously thought they were going to do another series, I want to know where that woman was taking Janice during the blackout, and was that her and dimitri's little boy in the flash forward. Wonder if Mark survived?

I think Mark and Olivia split up because, he lied to her about what he saw in his flashforward, some stranger sent her the text telling her what mark was doing. Also he became to wrapped up in the case.

Don't understand why he started to drink. Think it was the whole you can't stop fate.

What I really don't understand is why dem went and got Janis pregnant??? Why didn't he just go and get his wife to be pregnant, at least he was supposed to love her? "oh I'm supposed to get pregnant in Ethiopia" "ok, I'll sleep with you, even though I'm engaged to be married"? whatever!

I thought that it was Simon´s text with Lloyd´s "signature"-something about a wave that was the "lightbulb" moment.

Yup the Keiko & Bryce thing

Have to admit I´d choose Lloyd over Mark-hell, I´d choose Simon over Mark!!

Mark and Olivia seemed to split up because they saw it in the flashforward and made it happen, as did the Bryce and keiko stupid romance. I thought Lloyd had to be at Olivia's because Dylan wrote the formula on her mirror. I had no clue what was going on or why, but I've read the book and the blackouts were a side effect of trying to find the Higgs Bosun. When they do it again, they don't cause a blackout, but they do find the Higgs Bosun, but nobody cares. I want them to end it properly though- I want a second series!

"I think the kangaroo did it."-
now you´re being silly!- the dog must have helped because obviously the kangaroo couldn´t have done it alone!

Yup, still don´t get it either.

Why did people give in to what they saw?

Why did Mark & Olivia split up?
Why did he start to drink?
Lloyd didn´t have to be at Olivia´s (imo) as the text from Simon he could have received anywhere.
What´s going to happen to Janis?
What happened to Mark-actually, scrap that, I don´t care as he was such a twät!

So, cräp, cräp, cräp!

I've watched it all and am none the wiser.

Now I'm just irritated.

I think the kangaroo did it.

That's what I dont get diddl. Why did they have to go through all of that, the whole bombing of the fbi building just in order to have a new blackout. I don't understand the reason for the blackouts. Am I being particularly dense [bangs head on keyboard emoticon]

diddl · 01/06/2010 12:14

So was it the trying to prevent the blackout that caused it?

There were lots of bits that were slightly different though. Janice was told her baby was a boy last night. I think people did things slightly different deliberately.

I am hoping some network picks it up and makes another series that ending left so many questions.

Incredibly disappointed. I hate series that run in to each other with no finalisations. It was such a stupid crappy ending I'm not surprised it's been axed. It was really good up until the last 2 minutes though.

Wondering if another network will pick it up. Clearly they are saying, we can axe the whole cast and pick up with a new one with the now grown up Charlie as lead character. Also, wasn't that guy in the toilet supposed to have a newspaper in his hand?

Guess they wanted to string it out (like lost) but got axed

so tried to cram it all into one hour

Still not sure how that invention can make the world black out

what comes around eh. So ending is the beginning

why aren't animals affected? Dog was walking in airport

and what is it with that bloody kangeroo?

Is he dead?

Will there be a series 2 or forever axed?

so have you watched the last epsiode. I am so NOT impressed. Clearly written with another series in mind leaving only questions and no answers or did I miss something?

I hate it when networks do this. At least finish a show properly.

I enjoyed it.
It seems that in trying to avoid their "flashforward" they are making it happen.

Ie the policeman who killed himself-the flashforward he tried to prevent still happened.

I feel that Penny from Lost (Mark Benford's wife) is a bit of a fast worker...
