The primary basis for an FBI investigation on a worldwide supernatural phenomena? A public website where civilians post their experiences. Don't remember parts of your blackout? Just take a drug, you'll remember it all.
Discrepancies include:
- Simon being inducted into the FBI
- Mark being given a second chance, even with therapy
- Is the occurrence of the FlashForwards a factor in the future one sees? The window washer saw himself as a successful speaker, which he only began to pursue solely because he saw himself as such. Mark's primary leads on the case are from his future cork board collage.
- Concerning the last point, as further inquiry: Bryce doesn't commit suicide because he sees a happy future. Yet he doesn't pull the trigger because he sees this fate. This leads me to believe the FlashForwards' future(s; Simon brings up that each is only a possible future, and each person could foresee a separate, individual future) are reliant on the FlashForwards themselves. However...
- ...I may not be thinking this through clearly enough, but I believe this presents a paradox. Maybe I shouldn't think too hard about FlashForward in general. I watch it more as a comedy. It's just another installment in my Thusday comedy night.
I noticed while watching the credits that Paul Rabwin works on FF. Interesting. It's a step down.
