FlashForward: The Gift

Al! You did it Al, too bad we barely knew you (I didn't even know your name until you were about to jump).  Al you changed the course of the series and your death was truly a gift to the viewers of this series as well as the characters.  You have opened FlashForward to a brand new world of possibilities, great job.

The Blue Hand cult turned out to be a bit more interesting than I expected.  Quite honestly any single episode of television that includes Battlestar Galactica actors tends to be better than the episodes that precede it.  Here's hoping we see more of the high school teacher turned German fatalist!

Why do all episodes of television entitled "The Gift" have people leaping off tall buildings to their inevitable doom (Spoiler: Buffy Season 5 finale)?

I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed this episode and it seems that FlashForward is on a general upward tick in quality.  It was disappointing that Simon did not get much of a role this episode and the fact that they are still ignoring the Somalia lead is criminal.
