    I hope this will live up to the hype that was generated so far.

    I don't exactly have high hopes for this series though; I can't exactly see how far the story can progress without steering too far off from the title's original premise

    Nice of them to keep Sawyer involved. (The writer, I mean. Not the from LOST.)

    Flash forward six months: this show is canceled faster then "The Nine."

    Just got back from seeing it. I went in a skeptic and came out quite happy. The entire movie is a homage to the past while subtly preparing it for a new generation of viewers.


    You'd be silly not seeing it.

    Ah, so the commercial for Flash Forward "what did you see" is asking you about your vision, not about the scene with the kids in the school.


    That's kind of a bummer.

    And here I was hoping he'd try to do a George Takei imitation. He's almost as fun to do as William Shatner!

    You didn't ask Chekhov the real question: "How well do you scream"

    Chekov... optimistic? In a morbid sort of way, I guess... he's very jumpy and springy and all, but he's also always saying "oh we're going to die" and "there's no way we're living through this one cap'n". Not like the characters are particularly big parts though, as long as they get the essentials i'll be satisfied.

    @thevarrior: Well, it's particularly a Russian sort of optimism. And they cast a guy from Petersberg, who might be more Russian than Koenig was. So I hope it works.

    "They all had a very specific kind of walk, and a very, very specific kind of smile and a very specific look. There's a very natural optimism about him [Chekov] and I just thought it was really important to capture that."


    That is one of the best things about Chekhov, though I'm not sure it's 'optimism.'

    Oh, see, from the title, I thought you meant they were asking Sulu. Not Harold from the Harold and Kumar movies.

    Doesn't matter. Any excuse to bring up the subject of Kobe Lobster is a good thing. Plus his character was amusing...for how long he lasted.

    @Kishi: To be accurate, though, I do not recognize him as Captain Davenport- he is forever Coupling's Steve, the stammering, defender of the artistic merits of Lesbian Spank Inferno.
