I’ve added screen captures of Dominic’s appearance on the season finale of “Lost” appropriately titled, The End. I personally felt like it was a great ending to a fantastic series. I was really nice to see Charlie back on the screen. Head over to the gallery for the latest additions.

Fans of ABC’s “FlashForward” will be staging organized blackouts in major cities around the world on June 10th in hopes of seeing a future for the canceled show. The blackouts will resemble the fictional global blackout seen in the freshman drama where people collectively lost consciousness and saw a glimpse of their future lives.
The effort is organized by “Save FlashForward” with this mission statement:
“On October 6, 2009, the whole world blacked out for 2 minutes and 17 seconds, at the start of what promised to be ABC’s new hit show, FlashForward. In May, ABC canceled it, but still aired the explosive cliffhanger finale leaving fans begging for more. On June 10th, there will be another blackout, this time to change fate.”
Blackouts will be staged in front of ABC offices in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, and will occur in other major cities including Detroit, Ontario, London, and Dublin, Ireland. Visit www.preventtheblackout.com for details on the event in the city closest to you.
This fan effort punctuates the campaign to get the show based on the novel by Robert J. Sawyer renewed. Fans have sent ABC President, Stephen McPherson “FlashForward” themed objects, including calendars with the date of the flashforward and second global blackout (April 29th) circled and friendship bracelets like the one Charlie Benford gave her father, FBI Agent Mark Benford, head of the Mosaic Task Force investigating the global blackout.
Fan tactics like those of “Jericho” fans sending peanuts to CBS execs and “Chuck” fans descending on series advertiser, Subway, to get the attention of NBC have succeeded in achieving a second season for the shows. A second season of “FlashForward” would be an interesting juggle for several of the main cast as Joseph Fiennes (to star in “Camelot”), Christine Woods (to star in “Perfect Couples”), Zachary Knighton (to star in “Happy Endings”), and Ryan Wynott (to star in “The Cape”) are already signed onto other projects.

Dominic Monaghan, who played the ill-fated but fan-beloved bassist Charlie Pace on ABC’s Lost, confirmed that he’s talked with series co-creator Damon Lindelof about returning for the show’s sixth and final season, which kicks off in early 2010.
“Sure, we’ve talked,” Monaghan said in an exclusive interview while on the set of his new ABC series, FlashForward, on the Disney studio lot in Burbank, Calif., on Monday. “I’m friends enough with Damon that we just hang out.”
Monaghan said that rumors about his reappearance were stoked because observers may have misconstrued his relationship with Lindelof. “I think a lot of times recently there’s been talk of us hanging out, and ‘Why would they be hanging out other than talking about Lost?’” he said, adding: “We had breakfast one time, and I think that was the reason why a lot of these Lost rumors started.”
Still, Monaghan said, “I’m sure they would be keen to bring back certain characters this season.”
Charlie died heroically in the third-season episode “Through the Looking Glass.” Since then, he’s appeared a couple of times as a hallucination of Hurley (Jorge Garcia).
We updated the gallery yesterday afternoon with a poster and some promo photos from Flash Forward. Click here to view them all.
Without eliminating the part that explains the phenomena happening to people in the entire world for 2 minutes and 17 seconds, the new promo of “FlashForward” gives the actual mass blackout occurring at a sport stadium. Toward the end of the promo, something peculiar is captured in the cctv video while people pass out.
A new sci-fi series airing on ABC, “FlashForward” tells the mysterious happening that caused people to see few months ahead of their life. Following the global event, people start dying one by one while operating man-controlled vehicles like cars and aircraft. The series stars Joseph Fiennes as Mark Benford, John Cho as Demetri Noh, Sonya Walger as Olivia Benford, Dominic Monaghan as Simon and more.
ABC is going full throttle in promoting this show by creating a unique campaign that has bizarre codes on printed ads. The black-and-white codes can be held up to a webcam and the computer screen turns into a 3D ad featuring photos from the show. Each of the photos will extend to clips when clicked.
“Once you watch all the videos, it’s a 10-minute experience,” Darren Schillace, ABC Entertainment advertising/marketing exec explained. “In the normal world, you’d never spend 10 minutes with a print ad.” Ads can be found on tech-oriented publications such as Wired, Popular Mechanics and some gaming magazines. The downloaded version can be obtained at JoinTheMosaic.com.
