FlashForward Pictures 1

FlashForward Pictures 2

The FlashForward FBI team mull over the bodies left over after the last episode (and some weird blue hand things).

FlashForward Pictures 3

Funny little skeleton hand points the way for Mark Benford (Joseph Fiennes) to go to some parties where people who didn’t see anything in their FlashForwards are engaging in some pretty strange things.

FlashForward Pictures 4

Lloyd Simcoe (Jack Davenport) puts in a very small appearance in this episode, but I’m pretty proud to see the amount of British actors and actresses in this TV show.

FlashForward Pictures 5

We take a little flashback (see what I did there lol) to Iraq which starts one of the twists.

FlashForward Pictures 6

Ok not an interesting picture at all but this does show how not to possition your LCD and plasma television above a fireplace. It looks cool but its far too high and will give you some serious neck strain.

FlashForward Pictures 7

Ok twist number two and this for me is the big one, Al Gough played by Lee Thompson Young saw that somehow he killed the mother of twins in his FlashForward. He’s pretty cut up about it so heads to the roof!

FlashForward Pictures 8

He gets on the roof and the other FBI agents try to make him get down. He claims that if he kills himself then it proves they can change what they saw in the FlashForward and even those who saw nothing would still be able to live, Mark Benford might be able not to start drinking and his wife might not jump into bed with Jack Davenport’s character. Now I didn’t think they would let him die.

FlashForward Pictures 9

I was very wrong! This is a major twist as everything we’ve seen so far has been the FlashForwards coming true.

Stargate Universe Pictures 1

The Stargate does make a very welcome return to our television screens, this is the first world visited so far (yes just a desert).

Stargate Universe Pictures 2

Robert Carlyle comes to the small screen for Stargate Universe and brings some good acting with him, fat guy in the background is about the only initially likeable member of the whole show.

Stargate Universe Pictures 3

Trying to mix lots of human emotions into a Science Fiction tv show will either work or fail (time will tell)!

Stargate Universe Pictures 4

Oh yes earth and all the old faces from Stargate SG1 keep making appearances in Stargate Universe (SGU) and here’s Jack. Why didn’t they just bring Stargate SG1 back?

Stargate Universe Pictures 5

You can’t really see it in this picture but I’m guessing not all lifeforms in Stargate Universe will be as expected.

Stargate Universe Pictures 6

Oh yes more annoying arguing to fill the gaps, the black guy on the right is the worse and more annoying character in the whole of Stargate Universe, I just hope they develop him in some interesting way or it’ll get tedious.

Stargate Universe Pictures 7

Stargate Universes producers must have liked Lost as they’ve copid the continual flashbacks to each persons pasts. Again I hope this doesn;t get annoying.

Stargate Universe Pictures 8

Fat Guy saves the day la la la.

Stargate Universe Pictures 9

Here we go again Stargate Lost In Space moves on to where ever the ship wants to go next. Will they find a way back to earth? Who cares!

Stargate Universe Pictures 10

Some more unhappy people, talk about the past, sad music, potential romantic story to develop, end show.

Life On Mars - TV Show Information

Life on Mars got its title from an old David Bowie song and was a huge hit with viewers on BBC One and with TV critics. It was actually originally proposed as an idea to Channel 4 by John Yorker, but after senior management told him “it was going to be silly” he rejoined the BBC who commissioned the show. The show only lasted 2 series (both are now on BBC DVD) with a total of 16 episodes with the producers and writers saying they didn’t want to drag the show out as it would lose its impact. Life on Mars won both BAFTA and International Emmy awards and is now shown in North America and Europe, ABC in the USA have also brought the rights to remake the show, but both leading actors Philip Glenster and John Simm declined the opportunity to star in the American remake.

After the end of Life on Mars BBC executives confirmed that they were looking into producing a spin off of the TV show which is now known as Ashes to Ashes (another David Bowie song title). The show is similar that the main character wakes up in the past but this time in the 1980′s. The highly popular DCI Gene Hunt will again be in the show and will probably be just as politically incorrect as in Life on Mars. The main character will be called Alex Drake a female police officer played by Keeley Hawes and will be broadcast this year (2008).
