I think that if FF had produced some webisodes similar to Heroes where we saw insight into more characters (perhaps something like "FlashForwards from around the world") or if the mosaic sight included extra content like the profiles of actual show characters then fans might have formed a stronger connection with the characters, the fictional world, and the show itselfUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07825392506237081264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1940790881916661130.post-80848855793096577632010-11-17T07:00:43.677-08:002010-11-17T07:00:43.677-08:00I watched FF for the first time last night and enj...I watched FF for the first time last night and enjoyed it. My main qualm, as the article also mentions, was that I didn't care for the characters. They weren't immediately relatable or likable. I think their relatability has to do with the way we are introduced to them and to so many of them so quickly. By the time the FF device arrives, their character development appears to be for the mere sake of aiding a narrative gimmick. I think the gimmickyness of the FFs expose the debate of destiny v free will too much, in a way that Lost refuses to do so until much later on in the series. It's almost as if FF took Lost's mysteriousness and cut away all the supposedly extraneous crafting of character. And that was a big mistake that probably had a big role in getting the show canceled. But, as I said before, I enjoyed watching the show yesterday, but just not enough to pine for its continuation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
