When an ordinary day turns out to be not so ordinary. When everyone global wide, blacks out and sees a glimpse into their own futures, it immediately turns the world upside down. Details teach us about each character and what may be their future on the series. Some may want their futures to come true, while others will do what ever it takes to prevent it. It looks more like a movie then a TV series, I personally give this two thumbs up. With clues to help solve the mystery of the black out and weather it would ever happen again. The end of this first episode gives you a surprising twist.

I saw a Great new TV series, with an epic beginning. From the start it got me hooked like the first season of Lost managed to do. I don't know if anyone else noticed the scene where Special Agents Mark Benford and Demetri Noh are staking out the unidentified woman and two men when the scene turns to face just on the Character Demetri the billboard is an ad for Oceanic Airlines. Any Lost fans know this is the airline that carried the flight 815. I thought this was interesting and thought of a couple meanings this could be; 1. The show is trying to make a statement that this will keep you thinking and wondering like a mystery. 2. They are fans of Lost and want to grab their cult like followers.
As the show continued, I picked out anything that could have been symbolic or of importance. There was so many in my opinion, it was fun to do this the second time I watched episode 1. There was quite a few things that had me baffled, from the kangaroo running the streets of a metropolitan area after the blackout and why was Demetri and Mark separated afterwards as well. Where was Demetri? Why didn't he have a Flash Forward? What about the FBI agent and the Scotland Yard liaison, Fiona Banks recall the same Flash Forward regarding the Ruthford case. Does the Ruthford case have anything to do with this? or is this a random case? Not including the other clues or Mosaics that were played out in this episode. I guess the only way to answer all these questions is to continue watching. Look out for Episode 2 Recaps and Mosaics.
