Just watched last week’s season premier of FlashForward and it wasn’t too bad, very interesting premise and just like the premier of the show it is being compared to most, LOST, one needs to suspend their grasp on reality to buy into the carnage of the opening scenes. But like TDTVS, I think if given a chance this may be an interesting show.
Before watching FlashForward we watched the contents of the red envelope on the coffee table, The Jane Austen Book Club. I’m a guy and I have never read a Jane Austen book and I think that may have helped in my enjoyment of the movie. I’m pretty sure this was classified as a “chick flick” when it first came out and I would have never even thought of dropping it in the rental if not for the recommendation of a fellow MMC member. Why did I trust her suggestion? Because she likes a good action flick as well as the next guy, that’s why. I so bought into this movie that I didn’t even recognize Emily Blunt and I saw what I thought to be an actual familial resemblance between Amy Brenneman and LOST’s Maggie Grace who played a mother and daughter.

I missed Flash Forward premier, my son says I should watch it online before watching the show this weekend.
Have you seen Defying Gravity? I have enjoyed it, but it seems pretty light. Also, it didn’t come on this w/end, makes me wonder if it will last…
We finally broke down and cancelled Netflix, more on that later.

I watched about 3 episodes of Defying Gravity, but for whatever reason, may have been to soap opera-ish ascpects, couldn’t get into it.
