| Plot Summary of Flash Forward |
|---|
"In Flash Forward, an experiment in the CERN facility goes awry. Humanity is taken several decades into the future for a few minutes, and is then brought back. But, while they were gone, the world continued. Cars crashed, people died, and disaster struck everyone indiscriminately. People are given a whole new way of looking at things, and many can't handle it. What will happen the day that they saw themselves in the future? "
