Of course, for the CW the real reason for the gap is ratings. They get a spike in ratings for December and then another one in January, which translates into advertising dollars. Show me the money. $$$$
Even when I didn't like the flashbacks anymore, they usually served to comment on the story in the present in some way. Just like the flashbacks in KUNG FU and LOST. I don't see how the flash forwards relate to the present in any material way. Maybe I'm not smart enough to figure out the relationship--but then TV shows don't usually expect the audience to be smart and the association should be obvious. I just don't get it. All I see is a pause in the story I'm interested in following for something that doesn't matter.
The flash forwards feel too much like they're trying to make a spinoff in my opinion (which, obviously, they are).
