Why Robert J. Sawyer praises Flash Forward TV adaptation

SF author Robert J. Sawyer praised the producers of Flash Forward, an ABC sci-fi pilot drama based on Sawyer's 1999 novel, for being thorough as they adapted his work, changing things along the way, and added that he'll be penning an episode himself.

"I had a wonderful meeting in Los Angeles with [executive producers] David Goyer, Brannon Braga and Jessika Goyer early on in 2007, where we talked about what should be retained, what should be dropped, what should be changed," Sawyer said in an exclusive telephone interview with SCI FI Wire. "The plan is for the series to run five years of 22 episodes. And Brannon and David and, to a much lesser extent, I as a consultant have brainstormed all the myriad ways that the story will be developed."
