There's a new thriller-sci-fi show out called 'Flashforward' where everyone gets to see a glimpse of the world 6 months in the future. (It's spooky, kind of like 'Lost'). Anyway, in the main character's view into the future, he sees himself trying to figure out who's behind all of it, and the following shot appears:
That's right, Jd-. I know you're the evil mastermind. You and your Red Panda cult!

I saw this episode too (the premiere episode)...
What did you think of it?
I thought it was rather boring, however the cliffhanger in the end made up for a lot.

I dunno. It was okay, but seemed a bit too set up and Hollywood-ish for my tastes. It's an elaborate plot based on overt foreshadowing, but all the mystery boils down to one simple question: Can they change what they saw? I'm not sure I want to wade through umpteen episodes to find out. I'd rather just wait and see the season finale to find out what really happens on that day.
This plot idea was already used throughout the first season of Heroes, and it was done much better too. "Save the cheerleader, save the world" is slightly more riveting than "Can I avoid an alcoholic relapse".
It was also annoying that they put an absolutely unnecessary sex scene in just to give viewers some eye candy to stay interested... *sigh* Don't get me wrong, I'm not against sex scenes, but just like everything else, they should be plot relevant. [/rant]
So, anyway, I hope that answers your question.

Yeah, the sex scene..come on, way to stereotype Americans even more
As a Lost fan, I was recommended this series...I mean I wasn't that impressed, however I'll watch some more episodes before I can give a fairly-balanced review.
