	Author	Review
United States	Tim Goodman SFGATE	"If you like big-screen-level thrills and complicated plot structures, you'll opt-in to 'FlashForward'. And you'll be rewarded. Here's hoping it stays strong and compelling"	POS
United States	Paige Wiser Chicago Sun-Times	"On the basis of one episode, it's hard to say whether it will live up to its promise. But there is promise"	POS
United States	Ken Tucker Entertainment Weekly	"The show combines sci-fi-ish conspiracy suspense with excellent prime-time-soap drama. And (...) a good sense of humor humanizes this grand puzzle"	POS
United States	Brian Lowry Variety	"It's an intriguing, mind-bending concept that's mostly well executed"	POS
United States	Maureen Ryan Chicago Tribune	"Assuming 'FlashForward' can tone down a tendency toward pomposity and create a mythology and characters worth following, it may well be a worthy addition to the roster of sci-fi tinged TV programs"	POS
United States	Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times	"It's a decent but not brilliant beginning"	NEU
United States	James Poniewozik Time	"Like many of ABC's post-Lost attempts at serials, this one has a great premise with tremendous potential, but I wish more attention had been paid to fleshing out the characters and generally bringing a fresher voice to the dialogue"	NEU
United States	Tom Shales The Washington Post	"It seems to share a perhaps fatal flaw of that now-canceled show, which is that the premise becomes so byzantine and the complications so arcane that eventually people just give up on trying to make sense of the darn thing"	NEU
