Flashforward (2009)

When every person on Earth suddenly blacks out for approximately 2 minutes and 17 seconds and awakens with a vivid glimpse of life six months ahead, the world is thrown into chaos. Flashforward follows an elite FBI task force assembled to uncover what caused the global blackout, determine whether the visions are fixed fate or avoidable events, and prevent any looming disasters the glimpses might reveal. Watching Flashforward, you’ll experience a blend of high-stakes procedural investigation and intimate character drama. Episodes alternate between tense, puzzle-solving suspense — as agents chase leads, decode scientific clues and confront shadowy forces — and deeply personal stories as characters wrestle with the consequences of what they saw: shattered relationships, moral dilemmas, desperate attempts to change outcomes, and the haunting question of whether knowing the future helps or dooms you. The series mixes sci-fi speculation with emotional realism and conspiracy thriller beats. Expect twists, ethical conflicts, and shifting alliances as the mystery unfolds and time counts down to the future everyone once saw. Flashforward is a thought-provoking, fast-paced ride about fate, free will and the price of seeing tomorrow today.
