FlashForward Shuts Down: FlashForwardQL.jpgJust a month after sacking showrunner Marc Guggenheim, ABC is halting production on its freshman sci-fi series, FlashForward. The show has been picked up for a full season order but hit a ratings low last week. ABC sources allege that the break was budgeted in production schedules. Meanwhile, ABC’s other rookie series, Cougar Town, is already back in production after shutting down briefly last week so star Courteney Cox could deal with a “family matter.” [EW]

Oh no! Now I'll never know what happens to all the characters I totally don't give a shit about.

Didn't anyone see this in their fast forward? This sucks ABC! Sell it to CBS so they can have another hit and I can save DVR space.
