FlashForward (new lost)

The pilot was written by David S. Goyer (who also directed) and Brannon Braga, from Robert J Sawyer's novel, with Goyer and Braga executive producing alongside Jessika Borsiczky Goyer, Vince Gerardis, and Ralph Vicinanza.[2] FlashForward originally was developed at HBO, which sold its option because it thought the show would be a better fit for a broadcast network. After purchasing the series and ordering a pilot ABC picked up FlashForward for thirteen episodes[3] in May 2009. On October 12, 2009, ABC picked up the series for a full 22 episode season. Later the same day it was announced ABC had ordered a further 3 episodes for a 25 episode first season. Main Characters * FBI Special Agent Mark Benford (Joseph Fiennes).
