M arc Guggenheim was the first showrunner to depart ABC's "FlashForward," but he wasn't the last, as David Goyer - the show's co-creator and most recent showrunner - has also abandoned the post. While he'll still be "involved" with the series, an unidentified talent will take over the hands-on job. "As my feature projects have started ramping up again, I felt I was being pulled in too many directions," Goyer said in a statement. [1]

Things haven't been going as planned for FlashForward, ABC's Lost- replacement sci-fi drama that debuted last fall. The series still has five episodes to shoot of its remaining 23-episode season order, and it's not yet known who will be replacing Goyer. Goyer, who scripted the Blade films (and killed the franchise by directing Blade Trinity), also contributed to both Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. [2]
