The new ABC television series “Flash Forward,” which premiered this week, has the promise of a great premise: For some reason, everybody in the world blacks out for two and a half minutes. Planes fall from the sky, cars crash, people drop where they stand, some cracking their skulls from hitting their heads on the pavement. During the time they are unconscious, they get a vision of their futures six months hence. Then everybody wakes up, and it’s chaos. Do they keep on their current path toward destiny, or can/should they change their futures?
