think different people saw different dates. At least that is what I gathered from the flash clips.

Probably true.

This show had a cool premise. They really hurt themselves by making it so slow after the premier episode. I was also suprised this got cancelled because they did a ton of marketing for this show before it aired.

I really wish they would have gotten one more season to wrap it up because I think the overall main story would have been great. I read a summary about the book it was bases off of and the rest of the story had great potential.

I also think the reason he didn't have a flash forward the first time is because he was wearing the ring.


Great point! I didnt think of this.

Finally got around to watching this one. Not bad for a season finale.

The show did get better toward the end, although, like others have said, there did see to be some unnecessary story lines. Maybe they would have meant more in season two, we'll never know now.

having another blackout to end the season right after they cleared up all the mess from the first flash forward was about the most predictable thing ever IMO

True. Really, what else do they have to explain. We know how the blackouts were caused and who did it. So, we know the who and how, all that's left is the why.

Not a terrible way to go out after getting axed.

Would have been nice to see all of the main characters flash forwards and not just Charlie's (or what was happening to the triple agent), would have been a nice way to wrap it up.

Good premise, terrible execution,

But it did leave us with Mark Benford, one of TV's great unintentionally funny characters.

"BECAUSE I WAS LOADED!!" is now a staple in my random quote repetoire. And I don't care if no one else gets it.

I, for one, am happy this show is over.

The run towards the helicopter was awesome. But I was asking during that whole scene: why is that chopper just hovering there? What is he going to do, pull an Arnold and jump into the chopper? Great stuff.

Also Benford's wife has to go down as the single most unlikeable protagonist in TV history. I was hoping for her to eat a bullet every episode.
