Anybody Else Watching Lost?

[Moose]

From the previews, and the pedigre of the wirters/producers, I had a feeling that this was going to be a good TV show...damn, was I wrong - it's the best thing to be on TV since the first season of 6 Feet Under!

I won't go on about it unless someone else has been checking it out, but I am dying to see what anyelse else who has caught the first two episodes of it thinks.

[Kirkus]

Absolutely loved the first episode.

Wathching the 2nd right now. (PST)

I'm also looking forward to "Desparate Housewives".

****************************
2nd episode just ended. It's about time an original, quality, and fun series was on TV. I'm lovin' it!

[Moose]

Kirkus:
Do you think a) it wasn't a polar bear, or b) they aren't in the South Pacific.
My jaw dropped when you found out which one was "the prisoner".
The character development has been almost perfect thusfar. Tell you just enough, and leave you hungry for a whole lot more.
I'm completely hooked.

[Kirkus]

I'm hooked too. I haven't been this excited about TV series in years. My wife guessed who the prisoner was (she's good at that). And didn't you find it interested how adept she was at disassembling the gun? I think she was faking the not knowing how.

I hadn't given much thought to the polar bear being a real polar bear... now you have me wondering :)

I also thought the Iraqi soldier being in the Rebulican Guard a was nice touch. Kinda gave me the chills.

Good stuff!

[Moose]

Billy, the "one hit wonder" being a heroin addict (or appearing that way) also leads to an interesting plot twist when his baggie runs dry.
Yeah, the Iraqi Republic Guard is a very interesting twist for American television
What's the deal with the Koreans?
and that looped message was just eerie...but a CLASSIC episode ender

[shtexas]

I thought there would be nothing much to watch on tv this year and along comes "Lost". A truly original spin on an old idea. But, I am not surprised as JJ Abrams created it. He was behind "Felicity", which had 4 terrific seasons (I'm kind of glad it didn't wear out its welcome.) He is also behind "Alias", which was great when it started, but I lost interest.

As far as the show: I love the fact there are two non-english speaking characters on tv. I love everyone having a secret. I love "The Lost World" twist, if that is even the twist. I love not knowing what to expect next.

"Desperate Housewives" is also good. I would follow Marcia Cross anywhere on tv. I even watched a few episodes of "Everwood" (!) last year because I heard she was going to be in it. "Melrose Place" was at its best when she was on it.

[Moose]

funny how each one of us tuned into Desperate Housewives for a different person.
This week's episode did not disappoint - anyone else expected something SERIOUS between Gabrielle's husband and her boy toy to happen in the next few weeks. That scene at the end, when she was draped all over her husband's body and the gardener just stared them down was classic - but so was the scene when the three bratty kids all put their seatbelts on as they fled the women's house.

As for Lost, shtexas, ABSOLUTELY my new favorite TV show. Yeah the Koreans are an incredible twist. Can you imagine what they must have gone through selling that concept to ABC - "well, two of the main characters speak absolutely no English". I'm a little teed, because I have to go to Chicago tomorrow for business til Saturday, and it is gonna keep me from seeing this weeks ep til I get home (hooray for TIVO!).

[shtexas]

(Moose, don't read further until you see it on tivo, although I will keep it short and be general)

____________________________________________

Last night's episode of "Lost" was terrific. The whole back-story on Locke (Terry O'Quinn) was a jaw dropping surprise. :o

[Kirkus]

I know! Never could have seen that coming!! I swear the hour goes by way to fast.

[Moose]

Like that warning would stop me - thanks for not giving too much away. I"ll be watching it later on - but Locke is definitely a man with quasi-sinister traits

[Moose]

Not sure if anyone is West Coast, so I won't say anything more...but very revelatory. Look for an old TV favorite.
And the previews for next week...serious shit is about to drop.

I think "Lost" is about the best thing to happen to television in years. I didn't know if they would have the storytelling ability to hold this show together after the pilot...but I think it is just getting better.

[Moose]

I read a spolier for this weeks episode. Watch out for one of the Koreans!

[Moose]

If you're West Coast, skip this message til you see it tonight.











Damn, I think I would have stayed for the flower, too. I am such an f-ing sucker for sentiment.

[Sebastien447]

We watched Lost for the first time last night and we're a bit ... lost :/

But it looks like a qualtity program, just need to catch up on some of the missed character development.

But I did think the whole argument about whether to go to the caves or not was a bit ridiculous. Everyone should just go to the caves and take turns, in pairs, on watch at the beach! Duh.

[meadfish]

I wanted to watch this week's episode so luckily Kirkus let me watch his tape of last week's episode so I wouldn't be totally "Lost"
Seems like a good show, we'll have to see if they start using aliens and cyborgs to boost ratings ;D

[Kirkus]

I liked the idea that the Korean Woman chose love. Did anyone else see it that way?

I also think those who decided to stay on the beach should have to walk into the forest and get their own water. (No forest dwellers taking water to the beach-people.)

One thing I don't understand? How did the black guy get the watch? Was the Korean woman's father on the same flight?

[meadfish]

Well it turns out, MacGyver was on the island a year previously and made the watch out of tinfoil, dental floss, and a rusty nail. The Korean guy was later quoted as saying.. "My Bad" ;D

[Kirkus]

LMAO... you freak.

[Moose]

I liked the idea that the Korean Woman chose love. Did anyone else see it that way?
Love, or perhaps protection, Kirkus. From the backstory, sounds like she was under her fathers protection until she married, then her husbands. Tying in on my theory on the watch....



One thing I don't understand? How did the black guy get the watch? Was the Korean woman's father on the same flight?
Either the father was on the plane (unlikely, though, since he was not shown at the airport), or, my theory, the husband killed the father, and the watch was about that type of "honor". Remember, they were not in Korea when flying, they were leaving from Sydney. And sun stayed, because she was also fearful of him.

Could be a completely misplaced theory, but it is mine.

[meadfish]

I know I should have asked a long time ago... but I feel "Lost" because I never saw the first 4 episodes. Does anyone have any of them? Preferably the Pilot which I believe was 2 episodes? I would be willing to pay for a tape and shipping if someone would send them to me ;D

[Sebastien447]

I felt the same way ... I couldn't get into it because I felt as though I just didn't know the characters. I mean ... it was like trying to read an Amy Tan novel.

I think it might end up dooming the show ... not enough viewers can get into the plot if they haven't seen the beginning

[Kirkus]

You can catch up at the website:
http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index.html

I'm absolutely obsessed with it. Every week it gets better.

Desperate Housewives is another big favorite around our house.

God bless Tivo!

[meadfish]

Now is our chance!! I have been trying to watch Lost and get caught up.. and next wednesday they are showing the first two episodes back to back!! YAY!!

[Moose]

You can catch up at the website:
http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index.html

I'm absolutely obsessed with it. Every week it gets better.!
Best new TV show in ages. I think it was gotten better as they have gone through the back stories, and the plot keeps twisting. I am totally hooked, and can't wait for the 1st season DVD - they will probably have it out quick, like Abrams did with "Alias"




Desperate Housewives is another big favorite around our house.

The only other show I have been going out of my way to watch, or getting on TIVO. Your girl Felicity has been great, Kirkus, she is real fun to watch...though I am hoping she has some more showdowns with Sharon Lawrence.
The only thing bothering me about DH is Gabriella...they are turning her into a real bitch.

[Sebastien447]

The first two episodes of Lost are being shown right now ... this is what I've been waiting for

[meadfish]

Yep, You are an hour ahead of me.. I am waiting for 8:00 to watch them too ;D

[Kirkus]

I'm torn between which is my favorite of new shows, "Lost" or "Desperate Housewives". I love 'em both!

You're right about Gabriella, Moose. I find it disturbing that I don't condemn her affair with a high school boy. That's how likable she is.

I'll be curious to see what Sebers thinks about Lost.

[Sebastien447]

I'll be curious to see what Sebers thinks about Lost.

It's just not meant to be for me with this show! I received an important phone call right after it started ... so I saw the very beginning of the first episode and the end of the second. I can tell it's a great show (and I'm afraid I'm just not a Tivo kinda guy).

Enjoy the show ... I won't be commenting due to being "lost!"

[Sebastien447]

I have it Tivo'd. I'll put it on video for you if you want. Seriously.

Thanks kirki, but I've always had a philosophy about TV. I don't record anything. If I miss a show, I miss it. It's just not that important.

Tennis is the only thing I ever record.

[Moose]

Tennis is the only thing I ever record.


then you should go back and look at how JHH cheated Kim in that 3rd set at the 2004 AO. ;)

just kidding, buddy!

[Sebastien447]

then you should go back and look at how JHH cheated Kim in that 3rd set at the 2004 AO. Â*;)

just kidding, buddy!


How do you cheat with lines persons and a chair umpire in control of the match. A lot of players work the officials.

It's all part of the art of tennis war! 8)

[meadfish]

They are showing episodes 3 & 4 back to back tomorrow (weds the 22nd) and they will probably say "Previously on Lost" to catch you up. I went to ABC.com and read the episodes I missed, but it was great seeing them! The very beginning when the man gets sucked into the turbine!! :o

Can't wait til tomorrow... then I'll be all caught up ;D

[Moose]

Amen...FINALLY new episodes. I had to race home from Chicago to see last night's episode.

What is the deal with Kate? They made her even more interesting by telling more about her...seems like every time they deal with one of Kate's mysteries, they create three more. Gotta give the writers credit for that.

And what's up with Boone, hanging with Locke all day, with the axe.

Shannon sounded great singing "Beyond The Sea" though, didn't see...first thing she did that gave me a reason to think that she shouldn't be the first one fed to the Beast.

[meadfish]

What is the deal with Kate? They made her even more interesting by telling more about her...

Hmmm... after the scene of her in the black thong, everything else I heard was "blah blah blah" ;D

[shtexas]

With Kate getting another great flashback, Jack having had more than one flashback now, and castmembers like Boone and Shannon having none yet, I realized last night that this show could go on for a long time.

And what the hell are Locke and Boone digging up?

[Moose]

they haven't even hit on a huge number of the cast's backstories yet - Boone and Shannon (though the "Lost" discussion board says that one is next week, and it is a doozy!), Sun, Hurley (can't wait for that one - I wonder if he was skinny before the crash?), Michael and Walt.

I am amazed also by the fact that the ratings for "Lost" have grown as the season progressed. You would think that an episodic drama which requires almost weekly viewing would drop from its initial high ratings, maybe reach a plateau and settle in. But according to zap2it.com (a great site for entertainment news, if you are not familiar with it), this past Wednesday's show was the highest rated of the entire season.

[shtexas]

Yes, I read zap2it all the time.

I think people that missed the first few episodes were given a chance over the Holidays to catch them and that helped increase viewership this week. It also didn't hurt that ABC was promoting the hell out of the return of "Alias". That show's first hour actually held on to 85% of Lost's audience. The second hour "Alias" dropped a bit.

[Kirkus]

Amen...FINALLY new episodes. I had to race home from Chicago to see last night's episode.

What is the deal with Kate? They made her even more interesting by telling more about her...seems like every time they deal with one of Kate's mysteries, they create three more. Gotta give the writers credit for that.

And what's up with Boone, hanging with Locke all day, with the axe.

Shannon sounded great singing "Beyond The Sea" though, didn't see...first thing she did that gave me a reason to think that she shouldn't be the first one fed to the Beast.




Finally! 4 days later and I finally saw the latest episode (God blesst TiVO)

I knew Kate was a bad girl, but didn't realilze she was THAT bad. I still like her. It bugged me a little that she had the silver case originally and gave it to Sawyer. Then spent the next half of the show trying to get it back. Why didn't she just keep it?

I figure Boone and Locke are gonna try and hack their way into whatever that was they found in the ground... before Christmas.

Great show... right next to Housewives on my list of must see TV.

*BTW, as I type this there's a Carnival Cruise commercial on with "Beyond the Sea" playing in the background. Today had a theme and no one told me.

[meadfish]

I knew Kate was a bad girl, but didn't realilze she was THAT bad.

I think it will unfold that Kate isn't bad, she will end up having a reason that forced her to hire robbers and hit the bank. Maybe after they sell us on that, she will turn out to be bad after all ;)

[shtexas]

Another interesting episode tonight.

Did anyone watch "Alias" right after? I swear that in the first scene, a party, one of the songs they played in the background sounded like Charlie's Driveshaft (was that the name of the group?) song from "Lost". Since they are both JJ Abrams shows, I wouldn't put it past them.

[Moose]

finally got to see last weeks' "Lost" yesterday. I thought I disliked Shannon before, but whoa....

and I have a feeling that some kind of bond is gonna form between Kate and Jin.

How did Locke know that BOone would have the thoughts he did?

[Moose]

anyone else think a penguin will be making an appearance on an upcoming episode?

[Moose]

New episodes starting next week...AT LAST.

Read some spoilers this week...SOMEBODY is really pissed, which is gonna throw an interesting twist into things.

And JJ Abrams says one of the 14 will definitely not be around for Season 2.

[Sebastien447]

I've seen about a third of the episodes, and I don't know many of the names, but I have to ask this since I'm not sure if I missed the episode or not ...

What in HELL were that guy and the girl running away from when they hid in that little bamboo fortress thingy? Do we know what it was yet?

[meadfish]

There was one episode where the little boy was being attacked by the polar bear, then another episode was the brother and sister being attacked by the "Unknown Beast". It turns out that was a hallucination though, from a drug that Locke put on him ::)

[Moose]

What in HELL were that guy and the girl running away from when they hid in that little bamboo fortress thingy? Do we know what it was yet?

Locke's the only one of them that has actually encountered "the beast"...that was revealed in the third or fourth episode. And Locke hasn't told anyone that he has seen it.

[Moose]

another killer episode...enjoy it, West Coasties!

and after you do, I have a question about the Koreans.

[shtexas]

Speaking of the Koreans, I think he suspects that she understands exactly what is going on. Hell, maybe he speaks english too.

[Moose]

yeah, shtexas...I think he is developing suspicions about her.

Anyway, my question...it's safe now I think, most people should have seen the episode by now.

What's up with his interest in Claire and her baby. Jin's never shown any interest in anyone on the island, outside of Sun. But it seemed he was very interested in Claire and the baby all of a sudden.

[Moose]

That is interesting. I'm thinking Jin speaks and understands english also, but wants an excuse to stay uninvolved with the others. I hope they eventually show what Herley's life is all about. That guy just kills me.

K:
I read somewhere that Hurley's backstory is going to feature prominently into one of the final episodes of the season. I think they are making him the "heart" of Lost. He was a trip delivering the eulogy at the funeral for the guy killed by Ethan last week.

[Moose]

Damn, Sawyer - you got taken!

[meadfish]

I thought this episode was just so-so. I did like the twist of Sawyer drinking with Jack's dad. Did anyone else find it odd that Sawyer and Kate kept drinking from the little bottles, but they never ran out? Sure maybe he had more than one, but they never showed him open any more, and never hand her any more. I was watching the level in the bottle and it was more full on the fourth drink than the second drink etc! Call me silly, but I always notice stuff like that ::)

I do too and I did notice that last night ... and did you ever notice in the Pulp Fiction $5 shake scene at Jack Rabbit Slim's ... she just drinks and drinks on that shake and it's always filled to the brim!

sorry to interrupt the "Lost" thread with such silliness :P

[Moose]

Well, as long as it has been interupted, I loved the dance scene between Uma and John T in "Pulp Fiction", and I can't wait to see "Be Cool" just to see the two of them dance again.

Back to "Lost"..

[meadfish]

One last "Pulp" note... I have never seen the movie! I saw it was on late last night and I Tivo'd it.. gonna watch it this weekend ;)

[Sebastien447]

watch the milkshake fishy [smiley=39.gif] [smiley=39.gif] [smiley=39.gif]


OK, now back to Lost ...

[shtexas]

I have watched Pulp Fiction about 24 times now. It is the most influential movie of the 90's.

Back to "Lost"?

[Moose]

whatever you do, do not miss the last 5 minutes of "Lost" tonight. One jaw-dropper, and one "oh, damn" moment.

This episode was a total keeper.

Now, back to "Pulp Fiction"

[meadfish]

Ok... when Jin went to see the Ambassador, and his little girl was watching TV, was that not Hurley on the TV?? It sure looked like him! Any speculation as to where that storyline is going??

[Moose]

Yo Fish:
That was definitely Hurley on the TV.So yes, you have to wonder what that meant, an English speaking man on Korean television.

I was wondering at first why the sound on my TV was so bad at the end of the episode, particularly since I really like Rufus Wainwright's music.

[Moose]

Hugo's back story...I kept expecting it to be a fantasy, rather than a backstory. A little too out there, I was a bit disappointed.

But if someone sees this post, and watches it on the West Coast, can you tell me if that was the fusilage in the very last scene?

[shtexas]

That's the object that Locke and Boone have been secretly unearthing. Whatever it is has the numbers on it. It must predate the French woman and her party.

[Moose]

thanks, shtx and koko. I just couldn't figure out what it was with the numbers on it.

At least we now have an answer as to why the Korean girl was watching Hurley on the TV in last weeks episode.

[meadfish]

I liked this episode.. just watched it on Tivo [smiley=overhead_clap.gif]

I also read about it at abc.com where you can read a text version of each episode. When Hurley was talking to his accountant, he said "You own a box company in Tustin" and the website said (why does that sound familiar?) ??? I don't remember any other reference to that in a previous episode, does anyone else?

[Moose]

Fish:
I only recalled this lat night as I was watching.
Hurley owns a box company.
Locke is an account collection agent for a box company.

[shtexas]

I read somewhere that there have been hints since the start that Hurley was rich (it would be fun to see all the episodes again to catch them), and that they planned everything right through to the season finale.

[Moose]

shtexas:
Given "Lost's" pedigree, I have little doubt that Season 1 wil surface on DVD next fall. I'm looking forward to viewing everything without commercial, in order to see how clever they were at dropping hints along the way.

[Moose]

finally, a new episode tonight.
Locke is suddenly more creepy and more sympathetic.

[shtexas]

So, is Boone going to be the character that dies? They said someone is dying and it will not happen in the season finale, but before. Or are they going to surprise us and go with a really big character, like Jack or Locke or Sawyer?

We still have not seen the exact reason Locke ended up paralyzed. It's funny, in this episode we saw Locke get hit by a car, and I thought aha! that's it. No. Then he said he was going hunting. I thought aha! he gets injured hunting. No. Then, the operation. I thought aha! that's it. No. Then, he leaves his Dad's house driving like a maniac, but the last scene of the flashback was him stopped at the side of the road. So, we still don't know. Never mind trying to figure out why he is having trouble with his legs now on the island. Wild stuff.

[Moose]

I was so certain that something was going to go wrong in the operation...but apparently the only thing that went wrong was his father deserting him.

And why did the drug smuggling priests have a map of Nigeria?

And who did Boone make contact with on the radio?

[Lone-star]

::) I just heard on the radio that American Idol is pitching it's finale against the season finale of Lost. Thank heavens for tivo! [smiley=overhead_clap.gif]

[Moose]

:'(





now that that is out of the way, would someone please tell me if they got married or not?

[shtexas]

I imagine my mother is very upset. She keeps repeating he has the most beautiful eyes she has ever seen. Too bad.

I guess they got married, even with the odd vows. Now, we need to find out what happened after that.

I hear when the season finale gets here, it is going to be huge. They are going to answer some questions, pose new ones and leave us with a big cliffhanger to chew on all summer. I hope it is as good as it sounds.

"Watch with Kristin" which I sometimes read over on yahoo tv had tonight partially right. She said the death would be a huge character (and by huge, she didn't mean heavy) and that Jack would not deliver Claire's baby. So, I guess she assumed that meant Jack died. Not quite. I think I should stop reading those kind of spoilers.

[Moose]

shtexas:
After a few weeks of trying to track down every spoiler on the Web, I finally abandoned the effort a couple of weeks back. I was finding the episodes less than satisfying when I knew what was going on beforehand.

Your mom was dead on about the eyes...don't know if they are contacts or not, but they are piercing.

The death is going to be the big story in EW in next weeks issue. The NY Post had an article this morning...the writers said this was the character that had to die to set up a piece of the finale.

I give the writers a huge amount of credit because it seems they know exactly where they are going with the storyline. At least it appears this way.

I went back and forth earlier this season over whether Lost or Desperate Housewives was the best new show to hit TV this year. While DH remains incredibly fun, I think Lost is incredible, and hands down the best thing to hit TV in years.

[shtexas]

Just got the new issue of Entertainment Weekly. It is full of stuff about Lost. It is really about the guys only. But, it is packed full of fun facts, like who was the first actor cast for the show. Also, lessons they have learned from other shows that started similarly, like the X-Files and Twin Peaks. It's a fun read.

[shtexas]

A new episode tomorrow night! Finally!

And Locke dies!

..... yeah, right.

[Moose]

Sayid had to delay the flight for some other reason than just to be on the ill fated flight. A lot of what I have read so far about the season ender says that a lot of characters stroies are going to be intertwined prior to the flight.

Man though, the commercials really made you think that Locke was hit by the shot. Good tease, but bad execution.

Wondered why Locke admitted to Sayid that he was the one who knocked him out back earlier in the show. Seemed like there should have been something more than just saying what he did about people scrambling to get off the island.

I'm still waiting for the elderly black woman to reappear...remember her from the first tow episodes, saying that she knew her husband was still alive somewhere? She's hasn't been seen or heard from since.

[shtexas]

I read that actress is in New York and hasn't been asked to appear again since those first few episodes. I always thought they would find a few survivors from the tail of the plane and her husband would be among them. Her comment when Jack spoke with her about her husband being dead because the tail broke off in mid-air and she said they probably are thinking the same thing about us was made for a reason. Then, you have the transmission that Boone heard - "We are the survivors of Oceania Flight (whatever)". Â*Hmmm.....

In any event, the producers/creators have said we may not like finding out something they are going to tell us in the season finale. We may wish they never told us.

[Moose]

after tonight, I am amazed at how my opinion of Kate has changed so drastically from the first episode. And Sun doesn't even have a clue. Or does she- I am not sure about anything on this show anymore, with 20 episodes down.

And what is it with all the deaths in the backstories? Maybe all them are cursed, not just Hugo.

Was Ethan one of "The Others"?

[shtexas]

I agree about Kate. We are a long way from Episode 1.

Nice that the French woman will come warn them. You run, you hide, or you DIE! I'm so ready for next week.

[Moose]

everything is in place for a simply KILLER finale.
I really enjoyed the closing scenes between Jin and Sun, they seem to be softening Jin's edge a bit.

Kate becomes more evil (at least in flashbacks) with every episode.

Also thought it did a lot for Sawyer's charecter to tell Jack about drinking with his father in the bar. From Sawyer's flashback episode, you know there is a lot of family related issues.

And Hurley with Artz's name...ha. But does anyone else have the feeling Artz was introduced only so he can be taken out in the finale?

And did Danielle arrive by boat or by plane? Black Rock made me wonder.

[shtexas]

In less than 24 hours, we will have some answers, more questions, and will probably be left a bit confused all summer.

[Moose]

both satisfying and frustrating.
Though part of it really left me feeling terror.

[shtexas]

So, what did we learn about the hatch? It leads somewhere. :o

[shtexas]

Time to bring this back to the top.

New season starts September 21, 2005! I believe it's on an hour later this year.

After it is a new show called "Invasion" which starts with a hurricane (odd timing). Both my morning news critics placed Invasion in their top 5 most promising new shows.

[Moose]

Real eager for new "Lost", shtexas. My DVD set for Season 1 arrived this week, but other things occupied my time.
Michelle Rodriquez is joining the cast. She's the girl Jack saw in the airport in the finale. For some reason, I am expecting her to be in the hatch.
Have read some teasers...more of the hatch is revealed in Episode 1, but apparently Episode 3 is a biggie.
And not everyone from the raft gets back to the island.

[shtexas]

I have been trying to avoid any spoilers, but I did see the pictures of Michelle Rodriguez with Fox and Lilly. Entertainment Weekly had a spoiler alert in its fall preview issue, so I didn't read the rest.

[Moose]

I am SOOOOOOOOOOO Eager for the season 2 debut tomorrow! But they better have some answers for me.

[Moose]

some satisfaction, some new questions. Could have sworn the opening was a backstory til the camera panned away. And I have to admit, I was expecting them to find Michele Rodriguez and Rose's husband down in the hatch.

[shtexas]

some satisfaction, some new questions. Could have sworn the opening was a backstory til the camera panned away. And I have to admit, I was expecting them to find Michele Rodriguez and Rose's husband down in the hatch.

I yelled at the tv a few seconds in - "Oh my God, this is down in the hatch!" Great stuff. Interesting choice of song too! I always worry they are writing themselves into a corner because it looks like this guy has contact with the "real" world. I am very curious where this is heading. They must have a real shocker coming.

By the way, I thought "Invasion" was so-so. USA Today built it up as the greatest premiere since "Lost". It was shot beautifully, but looks like body snatcher stuff to me.

[Moose]

you picked up on it quicker than I did. I thought it was a Locke backstory, since it appeared to be older computers, and vinyl on a turntable...and Mama Cass singing. And Locke would seem to be the only one old enough to fit that scenario. Didn't see the hatch coming til the camera pan.

I didn't catch "Invasion". Not letting myself get drawn into another "you have to follow it every week to understand what is going on" type series. A friend got me hooked on Nip/Tuck over the summer, so I've set an artificial limit of 3 shows (Lost, Nip and Desperate Housewives).

Well if the season debut kicked things off on a high note, then I think episode 2 proved that Lost has become the best thing on television. Sheer suspense mixed with incredible character development and interplay. Sawyer and Michael were fantastic together.

Did anyone else think that the writers might have looked at the movie "Go" (or "Pulp Fiction") over the summertime. Thought the "re-telling" of the hatch sequence was a brilliant move on their part.

[Kirkus]

Then.... episode 3. I just don't see how it can keep getting better! But, for me at least, it does! I'm obsessed. Absolutely obsessed!

[Moose]

as good as the first three episodes of Season 2 have been, Kirkus, I think last night was the best yet of the season. Hurley is so much the heart of the entire show. And Sawyer - lately for some reason I'm completely mesmorized by his character.

And when Hurley's mom was on the phone with Jesus - how could you not laugh.

[Kirkus]

Agreed. Hugo is at the heart of the story. I've always been drawn to the Sawyer character. So many dimensions to it. I think Locke would be the obvious multi-layered character, but to me Sawyer is so much more interesting.

I feel a little let down by Desmond. It seems that his character was introduced in the first episode just to make it an "ahhhh" moment in the second. I hope that's not the case.

[Moose]

Kirkus:
I would never count on any character being gone from the show...
Look at Rose. She makes a memrable two scene appearance in the pilot, saying that she knows Bernard is alive. And then doesn't show up again the entire first season. Then she reappears in this weeks episode, bringing the (partial payoff) from her two lines last year..."I know he's alive".

[Moose]

hey, any of our new friends "Lost" fans...a few of us here are huge on the show.

Last night was possibly the best episode they have yet done, in my opinion...Mr. Eko's backstory was so well done, right down to his getting kicked off the plane and adopting the priest's identity.

The Kate/Jack/Sawyer triangle is definitely moving forward....which I think leaves open the possibility that Ana-Lucia is the next to go.

And Hurley's got a big old crush!

[Kirkus]

Agreed, Moose. During the beginning of the episode I'm thinking, "Ah man. I really liked ecko. Now? Not so much". Then, by the end, I was in love with the character again. Great writing. I'm just surprised that it keeps it's edge.

[Kirkus]

Season 2 finale... Oh - my - God.

What the hell?

Great show. I think season 2 was just as good as season 1.

Whaddya think, Moose?

[shtexas]

What got me about the episode was the whole "Planet of the Apes" connection. The music, and the way they shot it as Sayid was making his way along the rocks. But, even more was the giant foot remnant of a large statue. Wasn't the Colossus of Rhodes a wonder of the world and boats had to sail under it to enter the port? And didn't the statue inspire the Statue of Liberty? Everyone remembers the remnants of the Statue of Liberty in Planet of the Apes. Very odd.

They have to be careful as all the literary and pop culture references are going to wear thin after a while.

Otherwise, a lot to ponder over the summer. Are Locke and Eko dead? Is Desmond? Are Sawyer, Kate and Jack "the good ones" and Hurley is a bad one?

And what to say about the very end? Â*:o

[Kirkus]

Apparently I need to pay much more attention. I didn't notice any of the "Planet of the Apes" you spoke of... until you spoke of it. LOL.

Is it obvious to anyone else that Michael will turn the boat around and come back for his friends?

Did I see a "secret" signal between Kate and Jack while they were bound and gagged on the pier? A signal that Sawyer didn't know about?

And what the hell was that bright light? Did Desmond blow the bejesus out of the hatch?

[shtexas]

As far as Jack and Kate, Jack said he had a plan! But, I didn't think it involved being captured.

[Kirkus]

Aahhhhhhhhh. I assumed his plan was what he worked out with Sahid. But of course that wouldn't make any sense because that plan had them meeting at the beach. Doh!

[Moose]

I was extremely pleased with the way they wrapped Season 2. Got some answers, saw some new mysteriess set up...it did everything a season ender/cliffhanger was supposed to do.

The POTApes references went over my head completely, shtexas...that was a good pick up.

Been trying to think saince last night of common bonds between Jack, Kate and Sawyer that might have any explanation for why the three of them are the ones the Others wanted.

And is Henry Gale their actual leader, instead of "Zeke"?

Yeah, that ending packed a lot of wallop. But how about Libby showing up in another flashback...and who is "David"?

[Lone-star]

[smiley=woo_hoo.gif] Jack, Kate, and Sawyer are always involved in any plan. Every trip or expedition has had one or more of them invovled. Sahid is still out to sea somewhere and they did wind up on a beach, of sorts. I think Michael will turn the boat around and help, yet he's still a bad guy for the murders of Anna Lucia and Libby.

And Libby! She really gets around for a dead gal, from the boat provider to the hospital with Hurley, from patient to pyschologist, now there's some stretching!

Didn't think of POTA although I did think of the Colossus of Rhodes.

Lots to consider over the summer ::)

We're not finished with season 2 here yet, but... MICHAEL KILLED ANA LUCIA?! How did that happen ?

[Kirkus]

He shot her to help Henry escape. He also shot and killed Libby at the same time.

I became "lost on Lost" long ago. But I overheard a conversation the other day between two people who've been watching all along ...

does anybody have a clue about what's going on in that show?

EW this week has some news that came from ComicCon. And I got word from somebody that was there.

They've allready said that Season 3 is going to be split up, 6 new episodes, thaen a 13 week break, then the final 16 episodes. All shown back to back with no repeats.

Apparantely, the first 6-7 episode arc is going to play like a mini-series, focusing on the Others, and their holding Jack, Kate and Sawyer. Some backstories on the Others, and a "full explanation" of their how and why. JJ Abrams wrote and directed the 3rd season opener, and will also wirte and direct episode 7, which will be the beginning of the second part of the season. I know a little more, but in the interest of not spoiling surprises, I won't post it.

My degree of caution in posting what I know here (and at TOB) was done with you specifically in mind, shtx.

[Darcy]

Thanks for the update. Well, I guess if I know in advance about the 13 week break I'll handle it better, and no repeats in between episodes will be greatly appreciated.

I love this show, but I was frustrated by how much effort it takes to understand (?) what's going on with it due to the slow revelations. It did get better at revealing more toward the end of the season, but I'm not sure this household can stay interested for another whole season of mysteries.

[cphsrsh]

A lost man's question about "lost". I saw the episode yesterday where Jack's wife (Julie Bowen...HOT!) tells him she's leaving him... huh?! The man saved your damn life miss pretty, the least you can do is stick around...

My question: does she come back?

Julie Bowen is so hot she even managed to look pretty with her face crushed. Â* :o

To answer your question neka, in Season2 Episode 1, after Jack catches up with Desmond who is trying to escape from the island, Desmond realizes that Jack is the guy he met while running up-and-down in the stadium. (I forgot what that was called) As Desmond mentions the patient that Jack operated on, Jack breaks down and says "I married her!" Then, Desmond replies "Ah.. You're not married anymore, eh?"

So, the answer is no. Sarah doesn't come back for Jack and leaves him. Unless they get together after Jack gets off the island, they aren't together right now.

* Also, note when Ana-Lucia and Jack first meet at the Sydney Airport. Ana asks "No ring because you're not married? Or because [you don't like it]?" We can conclude that Jack is indeed alone at this point. I hope this helps. :)

[blackgirltennis]

LOST fanatic here as well! Anyone else shocked the show didn't get an Emmy nod after winning last year. At least Desmond got on for best guest actor. Mr. Eko should have been nominatd for best supporting actor as well.

BGT:

shtexas and I were both furious that Mr. Eko wasn't nominated. He was as good a character, and as well acted a role, as there was on TV this year.

[cphsrsh]

Although I'm a very huge Lost fan, I was generally more impressed and obsessed about Season 1 than Season 2. I thought in the second season, things sort of bogged down and there were too many episodes where new mysteries were thrust upon viewers and not enough answers. I know that sounds vague, but the that was my overall impression.

Like blackgirltennis and Moose mentioned, Mr. Eko did a fantastic job. I remember seeing him in "Mummy Returns" and it's pretty cool to see how far he's come. I think the Lost Cast a whole should win the Best Ensemble each year.

The second season was loads better. If you miss any episodes, you can got to watchlost.com. You have to have 15 posts in the forum to download the episodes, but it's worth it. Very high quality and all of the episodes.

[Moose]

I think Season 2 suffered a little from the schedule of JJ Abrams....he was off shooting MI3, involved with launching a few new shows, and while he may be able to explain a vision to the Lost team, I think Season 1 showed what happens when he is active.

That's not to say Season 2 was less stellar, because there is nothing on TV as good as "Lost". I just think it went in a different direction. It was more suspenseful in many ways, but I felt that it wasn't clicking on all cylinders when it came to the relationships between the characters...and that is Abram's biggest strength, I always felt.

Can't wait to see what happens now that he is more involved, directing a number of episdoes for Season 3, so I'm sure he's more active in the script and direction of the show.

Season 2 DVD Box Set comes out September 5. I allready have my pre-order in on Amazon. While I have seen every episode at least twice (I tape it each week while I watch it), the DVDs a must have. There were a few times during Season 2 that I went back to Season 1 episodes to see something. And, among the bonus features on Season 2 is a special "Best Of Sawyer".

[cphsrsh]

I just found some videos on Youtube that are presumably promos of "Lost" that ran on ABC.

thanks for those, cp. Had seen all but one over the last couple weeks, as ABC has been revving up the promo machine for Season 3.

I don't think I've ever had such an infatuation over a TV show that one month before the season premiere, I've been so geared up, trying to find any hints of whats to come.

and after seeing some more pics of late, as well as the promos, I'm more certain than ever that, right now, Evangeline Lily is the best looking woman on television.

[shtexas]

When does the season start anyway?

According to the offical website, the Season 3 Premiere is Oct. 4th (Wednesday) @ 9/8c.

You're welcome, Moose.

Unlike you, I tend to stay away from hints about the new season. I think they can help me prepare for the bizarre stuff that may happen this season, but I like to be surprised. :o I remember reading Harry Potter 6 already knowing that Dumbledore was going to die, and it totally sucked the life out of the story.

Unfortunately, I haven't seen enough television to know other beautiful women out there, but Evangeline Lily is certainly one very fine young lady.

A couple of other TV women that I think are gorgeous:

Peta Wilson - from "La Femme Nikita"

Lauren Ambrose - from "Six Feet Under" (my redhead thing, but she also was part of a scene in the first season of "Six Feet Under" that was without a doubt one of my 3 favorite all time moments in television history).

Marg Helgenberger - though I'm not a fan of CSI, I loved her on "China Beach"

I hope you're wrong bgt, that the baby is not Jun's!

[Moose]

1 more day til the Season 3 premiere...I am so way excited! Especially because I just read the beginning of a CNN/Entertainment Weekly review, and it says the first five minutes of the debut are pure genius.

[Moose]

...that was one phenomenal first couple of minutes. Talk about tying up storylines very well. So the bookclub was meeting at the same time the crash initially occurred.

I tohught things might be taking on a "Stepford Wives" type scenario with Kate being cleaned up, put in the dress and all. And Sawyer getting the fish bisquit was really well done...and the killer line of the episode was when he was told "the bears did it in two hours".

I'm only troubled by how far down they are taking Jack. I understand that the storyline has his character painted as someone who always needs to control things and win, so its logical that they have him where it is at...but this has been going on since sometime middle last season, as they have charted his descent. At some point, I think they need to make him a hero.

Anyone else's impressions?

and did anyone catch "The Nine" - I tohught the debut was outstanding.

[shtexas]

Lost was a big yawn for me after the first five minutes. Hope they are setting up something good because I am not sure I like the direction they are heading with Jack, Kate and Sawyer. Maybe the rest of the cast being in next week's episode will help.

The Nine was depressing as hell for the first 55 minutes. The last five were ok. So, we are going to learn very, very slowly through flashbacks what happened in those 52 hours in the bank. Sounds a little too much like the show before it.

shtx:
one of the things I really liked was how, in the opening, we were shown the crash from a 3rd perspective. I though that was brilliant.

and remember last season, the 1st ep was devoted to inside the hatch, leaving us hanging on the fate of Sawyer, Jin and Michael....there were so many open storylines after the season 2 cliffhanger that need to unfold.

I felt a sense of unease throughout the show last night, which I think is why I enjoyed it so much. Good TV stirs up emotions, and I was on edge for most of the show. Like I said, my big problem (and it is a "bigger" big problem than just last nights show) is how they are tearing down Jack, who I very much care for as a character. Feel like they are having him bottom out....this could lead to something major, or destroy the good will he has built up. I trust the staff of Lost enough to beleive that there is a huge redemption coming, but they have disappointed me in the past.

[cphsrsh]

The season 3 premiere was below my expectations. It had its moments, yes, but the personally it was a bit dragging and boring.

My main question (and it is a very simple, if not stupid one) is how big is this freaking island?

But some of my favorite flashbacks always feature Jack and his ex-wife and I really loved the ones in the last episode.

Moose, that quote about the bears was hilarious.

Anyways, I'm hoping for greater things in the next episode. Go LOST!

[Moose]

Moose, that quote about the bears was hilarious.



CP:
do you read Zap2it.com? Last year, I got props for "Quote of the Week" when I nominated "anyone got a ruler" (Kate said it when Sawyer and Jack were playing poker). It ended up being Quote of the Year.

I allready sent in "it only took the bears two hours".

[Darcy]

I enjoyed the first episode a lot, but I sure hope we get more details soon. Am I right that "Juliette" is Desmond's girlfriend in the flashbacks? Could be that I saw her in another flashback...

Still enjoying it, but my patience can only stretch so long! :P

[blackgirltennis]

I always though that was Desmond's girlfriend. I hope he comes back because I like him. :) I'm wondering if Michael and Walt are really gone, or if they'll show up washed up on another side of the island. I doubt that the ones in hatch are dead, just injured, maybe even like Boone, which would suck.

[lynnlovestennis]

That's funny... I saw a discussion just like this one on Juliette a few hours ago. The answer was that it's not Desmond's gf, she just looks like her.

My questions about the season premiere, fwiw:

-- Wassup with the kid in the cage across from Sawyer? Is he a plant by the Others to observe Sawyer??

-- Why is Jack inside and getting real food while Sawyer's outside barely getting anything and having to struggle for fish cookies? (Not that I'm a Sawyer fan mind you, but it's a little inhospitable, even for captors ::))


-- Where the hell are they getting their books for the book club? They have cd's too. Amazon.com delivers to the mystery islands?

-- How bizarre is it that the Others have a nice little suburban compound and spend their days arguing over book club selections? Are they stranded on a harsh tropical island or living in Bezerkely?




Ok, I'm done.

Desmond is a regular cast member now. I mean, after the season finale, he pretty much has to be a regular now. But, they might not get back to the storyline behind those last few moments of the season finale until next season! Ugh!

[Moose]

If the preview for next week reveals anything, it would seem that the episode is going to focus, at least in part, on Sayid, Jin and Sun...there were trailers of the sailboat, and of Ben (Henry Gale) saying he wants that boat.

The first six episodes in the story arc have been said to be focused on two items...love, and The Others. So it may be a while til we see whats going on with Desmond, Locke and Eko.

And yeah, I meant to say earlier...Juliet is NOT Penny, as others have pointed out.

No telling who the other guy is in the bear cages....but I think there is a purpose to isolating Kate and Sawyer in primitive surroundings...and I think that purpose is going to be primal. And how fitting that two murderers are in cages...while Jack is not.

[lynnlovestennis]

Interesting theory.

Sometimes I wonder if the viewers are more enlightened than the writers. Or if they're better at deduction and inference anyway. ;)

Every eppy that I watch of that show I'm reminded that it was only supposed to be like an MOW or something. I just hope they don't Twin Peaks out on us. That would really be a bummer. Twice bitten...right?



Btw, the cd that Juliette plays was mistakenly filed in a jewel case for the Talking Heads "Speaking in Tongues". Wouldn't it have been more appropos if they used "Stop Making Sense"?

Hmmmm....

[Moose]

another well done episode, as we see part 2 of the opening trilogy (and will finally, next week, get to what happened when the hatch blew).

How complicated is Sun and Jin's marriage? The whole thing is built on lies and deception, yet you sense they really do love each other.

I was not expecting Jae Lee's thud on Jin's car at all. But remember, we didn't see him jump (could someone's father have been following Jin?). Great shot with the pearls in his hand.

And now Sun has possibly murdered someone...everyone either is, or has become a killer.

[lynnlovestennis]

Just had a chance to watch the eppy now....

First of all, why the f did Sun leave the boat parked at the dock? And why did Jin and Sayid let her do that without back-up? So much for "military" training.... ::)

Secondly, as a Bostonian, I have to say that I was jumping out of my chair and screaming when they brought up the Sox winning the WS and they cannot lose with writing like: "No, really... they did! They were down 3 games to none against the Yankees...." 8-)


Can't wait until next week!

okay, so is Locke, or Mr. Eko essential to saving Jack, Kate and Sawyer? That's my question from the sweat lodge experience. And did Desmond have, or acquire, a 6th sense post-implsion.

I do have to go back and view some of my first season DVD's, however. Seeing Henry/Benjamin as the screener at the airport made my jaw drop a bit.

Two new survivors also were introduced at the end.

Real good episode, in my opinion.

[cphsrsh]

I don't know about you guys, but the last 2 episodes were below expectations for me.

Maybe it's the slow pacing or the lack of real suspense that was in full throttle during the first two seasons. But the flashbacks were brilliant as usual and (surprise, surprise) we are left with more questions to ponder about.

Anyways, I saw the promo for the next episode and I have a feeling that's not going to be for the faint of heart.

[shtexas]

I thought Ben/Henry told Jack last week he had never been off the island? Now, in this bizarre hallucination/flashback, there he was!

[Kirkus]

I was a big of fan of "Lost" during season one. Last season I LOST some interest in it. And following the start of this season, I'm pretty much over it.

I understand it's popularity and interest to others. But I'm tired of the questions/answers ratio. There's just too much jumping around now to keep me interested from week to week.

[lynnlovestennis]

Erm, it seems like you guys are putting way too much into the hallucination at the airport. It was simply that: a hallucination. Do you also recall Hurley working at the counter? No, we know he was late for the flight. Give that up.

I'm a little po'd at the way that they dumped the two new characters, Nikki and Paolo in at the end. (You know... Nikki and Paolo...they've been there all along, right? ::)) I knew they were coming, so I wasn't surprised, but that just seemed disrespectful to viewers.

Best line goes to Charlie:


When I used to get high, I watched a lot of nature shows on the Beeb. Polar bears are known for their intelligence. They're like the Einstein's of the bear world.


How very "Dude Where's My Car?" of them. :P

My favorite examination this week has to do with Geronimo Jackson. Check out the Wiki entry in the Lostpedia (http://lostpedia.com/wiki/Geronimo_Jackson) for cool details. :-*

[Moose]

here's the good and the bad IMHO....

the bad - I'm starting to get a little frustrated with the pace at which things are advancing. I'm sure there is a good reason for the pacing, but....

the good - any ep that spends that much time focused on Sawyer is a great thing. I figured he was in some form of cahoots with the warden from jump.

the bad - everything you knew about Sawyer up to this point made him giving the reward to Clementine seem slightly implausible.

the good - it's nice to see some feelings on Sawyer's part. The guy is totally smitten with Kate, and clearly wants her protected. And I think I am in an ever shrinking camp that still really likes Kate's character.

the bad - the Others keep preaching about how they are the good guys, but they can be brutal

the good - Henry Gale/Ben Linus is just an outstanding character

the bad - stop intriducing new people, with little explanation of how they are going to advance things

the good - 2 Islands! Freaking unreal

[shtexas]

Personally, as interesting as some individual episodes are, I am losing patience when more questions are raised each week, and essentially the old ones are never solved. I remember the creators saying very clearly early on that they were not going to do this to the audience. Ok - we found out there are two islands. Fine. Now, we know why they had to get the boat away from Sayid/Jin/Sun. But, what else is solved?

And I agree that the others are not good at all. If we go by the fact Sawyer and Kate were bad on the outside, then maybe they are trying to reform them. But, Jack?

And truthfully, every episode where Jack is isolated from the rest of the core cast is not doing them any favors. It's just not that interesting.

I see why Criminal Minds is starting to beat Lost in the time slot.

We need some resolution. Just some. I also don't understand how they can have introduced that last minute of last season, and then not deal with it at all. My understanding is they will get back to that NEXT SEASON. Give me a break!

[Kirkus]

I'm finding the 2nd island a little unbelievable. As much exporation as the original cast did on "their" island leads me to believe they would have seen the "other" island at some point.

[lynnlovestennis]

Mmmm. I dunno about that. Sayid never did finish his total exploration of the island, and for all intents and purposes, it looks pretty huge. If you think about the notion that they keep reiterating "several days walk" to where ever they need to go to, and ya gotta imagine the thing is pretty darn big. ;)

Overall, kind of a boring eppy that did give us some interesting plot reveals as dialogue asides. One is that the Others seem to have a sub, which might explain why they were able to give up the boat to Michael, and how they managed to sneak attack Sun on the sailboat so easily. The second is that someone has a big fat tumor on their spine, and whoa... they seemed to have a Heckle 'n Jeckle watching spinal surgeon in their midst.

The question is, who's the patient? :-?

[Moose]

The question is, who's the patient? Â*:-?

Jack commented that it was a 40 year old male. Odd that they said Sawyer's age (35, close enough to 40) in the same ep. Henry/Ben's the other obvious possibility.

[shtexas]

From the coming attractions, looks to be Ben. But, they could have played with the us a little regarding who was saying what to whom.

[lynnlovestennis]

I don't think it's either of them. I'm guessing it's an Other we haven't seen yet. Remember when Sawyer/James was strapped down on the table and the fat dude was telling Ben, "I don't know why we're doing this while he's turning purple and Colleen's in critical condition...."?

That was actually the thing that tipped me that they were playing with Sawyer's mind.

I think they need Jack for this mystery patient, that's why they're going through all this. It's also clear that they were taking blood samples for a reason. Whoever it is really is sick.

Can someone explain to me what a "Fall Season Finale" is?

[shtexas]

Can someone explain to me what a "Fall Season Finale" is?

It means they are not showing repeats this year. So, they are grouping the season in parts. All original episodes, a break for another new series, then back to all original episodes of Lost.

[TennisAnyone74]

I miss talking/hearing about "Lost", so I'm glad I found it here.

That being said, I MUST point this out, then I'll say no more: What is with the GENOCIDE (of sorts) that the writers of LOST are practicing? I am ANGRY about Mr. Eko. First, Walt is taken. Then, Michael is turned evil, Walt is found, and they both leave the island. Now, Eko is gone. Rose - well, I don't think we'll hear from her again. And now they bring two new young people into the cast. And where is the black "other" lady who seemed to be some sort of leader. Ggrrr! >:( Come on LOST! What's REALLY going on?

TA

[lynnlovestennis]

What's really going on is that the show's writers seem to "accidentally" write off anyone who's had a run in with the police. And they're so ridiculously full of themselves that they think their viewers are idiots.

Your point is valid, and you might note that with the exit of Mr Eko it appears that there are no more POC on the show. They'll suddenly determine that Paolo is hispanic as soon as they get clobbered for this I'm sure. Speaking of which, the insertion of the two new characters is as sloppy as all get out. It's like they accidentally dropped Gilligan and Mary Ann into the cast of Prison Break. Add to this that with the removal of Eko, there is only Bernard left from the tail section. WTF? We'll never see him or Rose again. Kreest, they didn't even explain what happened to Jin and Sun -- all of a sudden Sayid was just... there. Hmmm.

Add to this the most pivotal scene of the show, where they were in the Pearl. There they awkwardly use the new female character to explain a vital plot point my houseplant could identify (gee, these tv's are monitoring the other stations?) and that they didn't bother to explain why Desmond wasn't interested in the Pearl Video (recall: he only spent 3 years being monitored and this is all new to him) are just insulting.

I did kind of like Juliette and the Subterranean Homesick Slideshow though. I was waiting for her to drop the cards and walk away.

This show is jumping the shark and needs the writers to be smashed by the black smoke monster or their ratings will continue to slide.

[Darcy]

I'm about done with this show. Â*Eko was one of my faves and I said I would be pissed off if they killed him off and I am. Â*Not only did they kill him off, but the killing seemed like a punishment to him! Â*Brutal, and undeserved for this character.

I hadn't heard that the actor portraying Eko had any run-ins with the law, but I don't care either. Â*I was pissed off when they got rid of Ana Lucia too.

Grrrr...the writers....[smiley=bat.gif]

It seems when they brought all those tail people in for season 2, they already knew the beginning, middle and end of each of their story lines. Like, let's add some characters for a year plus a few episodes. The only one that still bothers me is Hurley's girlfriend (her name escapes me at the moment) because there was clearly more to that story in the flashbacks. I assume she will be a guest star in some episodes to resolve that eventually. Libby...that's her name.

They always had a problem with Walt because the kid was going to grow. So, I always knew that story was going to have to be resolved.

I agree about the awkwardness of the "new" character figuring out they should look at the other tvs. It was poorly written and therefore poorly acted. How is an actor supposed to make that scene not seem stilted?

I also liked Juliet's scene with Jack. At least that was something they can build on.

[Martini4me]

I thought Sayeed DID walk all the way around the island, so I was wondering why he didn't know there was another one.

But this season of Lost is really annoying me. First, we have Charlie back at the main camp, with no questions/explanations of "what happened?" Desmond is somehow comfortably settled in with the castaways. And now Sayeed is just there, with no explanation of how he got back. It's almost like they're only showing us every other episode.

Plus, with the castaways so divided, it took them three episodes to even get to the main camp this season (where we missed any effects/question on the aftermath of the hatch's explosion). And now we haven't seen Jin and Sun in the last two episodes!

Thanks for this. Â*It sure seems minor, and is it just me, or does the long list of arrests of "Lost" stars seem like an unlikely coincidence? Â*Hmm...Hawaii police targeting them, or what?

Still bummed about Eko's demise...his character was a fascinating one, and wth are we supposed to glean from the appearance of his brother and his death? Â*Bad, bad writing, unless they are going to flesh this out later on somehow...

I'm finished with "Lost". Mr Eko's demise just made it easy for me not to watch it anymore. AAA is one of the best actors out there, period. I've read all the damage control about him not wanting to commit to the show for the long haul, blah, blah, blah. The conflict between him and Locke was shaping up to be one of the all time best on network television. Instead we lose Eko and get Barbie(she of the perfect eyebrows after how many days on the island?) and Ken.
Later Lost.

I'm disappointed in the show of late, but I am not ready to throw in the towel just yet. One more episode before they take a break anyway. Better be a good one.

[lynnlovestennis]

Since I've been driver of the "Lost Hate Train" after last week's disappointing eppy, I should point out that according to the clips I just watched, the season finale cliffhanger is gonna actually be a good one. Let's hope they can revive when they come back in the winter.

I hate to go back on my word but you're not the only one saying that next weeks "Fall Finale" is going to be a good one. If I watch it it had better be. LOL.

[Moose]

okay...that was the high level of qulaity that made "Lost" the water cooler show it has been in the past. Don't know about anyone else, but I thought last night's ep was as good as it gets.

I had a feeling that when Jack got out of his pen, it was going to result in him seeing the cameras on Kate and Sawyer (which, thank God, I am glad finally happened. You don't exist under these conditions for a couple months without hooking up). And I knew Jack would do the surgery. The nicking of Ben's kidney, and the resultant action, was not what I was expecting, however.

And Jack finally got an opportunity to crack his descent into milquetoast-ism. Damn glad. I'm apparantly one of the few remaining Jack fans, but I really want his character to stand up again...and he did. And the fact that he doesn't know about the two islands sets a perfect scenario.

I think we went out on a high note...but did I miss something - why is Ben so interested in Alex?

[Moose]

and now, my minor gripe - total waste of a backstory with Kate last night. I didn't think it revealed anything about her, or advanced the story in any way.

and one other thing - did you notice how they talked up previews of the "spring premier" running each week while this new show "DayBreaK' runs for the next 13 weeks? Like we're gonna watch this show just to catch 30 seconds glimpses of "Lost" each week.

I am not watching "DayBreak" to see snippets of action from "Lost".

I am watching "DayBreak" because, while I don't know who she is, since the very first time I saw the woman who stars with Taye Diggs in the show on the first commercial, I said "damn..that is one of the most frickin' gorgeous woman I have ever seen". Her name is Moon Bloodgood.

[Moose]

Meet Miss Moon Bloodgood.

[lynnlovestennis]

Yea it was definitely a great episode. Too bad the rest of them from this season weren't so hot. ::)

I think the backstory on Kate was really helpful. There was a very ambigous link to Sawyer thrown in there that most people may have not caught. And Sawyer's character had a very revealing softness in the whole freaky sex cage thing, which was oddly touching. He's also proven to be as smart as Jack, like when he said, "The doc ain't stupid enough to fall for [performing surgery on his captor]."

The story on Alex is intriguing and I think it will pan out to reveal something big about the Others that will eventually make a lot of sense. I already think I know what it is. I just don't know when they'll get to explaining that though, which is emblematic of all the problems they had this season: too much going on. The story is so complex it seems like they don't know what to focus on.


NO WAY am I watching that Taye Diggs show unless they have him nekkid and covered in baby oil (fave line from Ugly Betty this season). I'll stick with the Lost Spoilers blog. Those dudes got all the vids. ;)

[Darcy]

I'm not sure this episode was everything I was expecting, but it was definitely good. Oh, yeah. Kate and Sawyer were hot, and just what I was hoping for. Trouble is, now I think the idea of Jack knowing they were together and trying desperately to save them is making Jack pretty hot now, too. *ponders Kate and Jack now*

Too bad it's gone 'til February.

[shtexas]

I liked this episode and am thrilled Jack took some action.

I think Kate's backstory was necessary to show she was capable of truly loving somebody. With her criminal past and general deceptive behavior, I think it was necessary.

My problem with this part of the season is it has felt so disjointed. Everybody is separated from each other, and so many characters have been almost completely ignored (Hurley, Charlie, Jin, Sun and Claire?). Last night was no different. I hope that this was all necessary to set up the February to May part of the season. I just hope they don't take too long to bring it all back together when they return from their Winter hiatus.

Juliet is keeping me watching. She is fascinating.

[Moose]

yeah, shtexas, was about time they snapped Jack out of the cognitive Kansas the writers have left him in all season. I see him as the heart of the show (though many may disagree with that). When Jack is at his best, the show is at its best.

Last night was the first time I was really annoyed with Kate. Calling the Marshall...please. I'm glad they finally brought her and Sawyer together, and I liked the scene when Jack asked her if she was okay, and she just started crying. But I feel she's been set adrift for some time now, and the writers don't have any real purpose for her other than being 1) part of a love triangle, and 2) always needing to be saved.

Has anyone else read anything about the "twin" theory"?

[Moose]

Just read something today that said "Lost" is being moved to 10:00 p.m. ET when it returns in February. One hour later.

Interesting development for a show that was, not vey long ago, THE water cooler show on American TV. Whether it was the endless repeats during Season 2, the (many beleive) rambling storylines and frustration at loose ends, or just the fade that happens to a white hot TV show, people are tuning out. Even with the first 6 eps this season, it ws being chased hard, and finally passed in the ratings by Criminal Minds on CBS...and when it returns in February, it would have had "American Idol" battling for viewers in the same time slot.

Gotta wonder if the perception is that it has jumped the shark (I don't think so), if there is just too much frustration with the show, or if the producers, and ABC just completely mismanaged the scheduling and plot development.

I read that a couple of weeks ago. I think it is partly to get away from American Idol (good for fans of both) and partly because ABC's 10 PM shows have failed. I assume The Nine is toast?

[Ti-Amie]

"Lost" almost lost me when Boone died. Then they frelled up the Shannon/Sayid mini romance. They completely lost me when Mr Eko bit the dust.
They're not going to beat "Criminal Minds" and AI(I still have no idea why people watch that show either) so the move is a good one I guess.
I liked the Nine. I downloaded the eps on iTunes so I'll have them.

yeah, shtx, "The Nine" is done.

Remember, though, when "Lost"'s 1st season finale went head to head with AI's finale ("LosT" originally aired at 8 here on the East Coast)...and the ratings difference was minor. That's why ABC moved "Lost" to 9 last year...they knew there was room for it and AI to go head to head. And "Lost" held its own through Season 2.

But apparently Season 3 is hemmoraging viewers...its down 15% so far this year.

If Criminal Minds is beating it, I guess so. Criminal Minds is awful, and Mandy Patinkin is annoying as hell.

Now, I will hang my head in shame and admit to watching the show "Brothers & Sisters". I doubt I'll be able to show my face on this board again but I like that there are so many siblings to follow (even Calista!) and having Sally Field in there as the matriarch (she wasn't originally cast in the role) was a stroke of genius.

I'll go now. :-[

[Kirkus]

PASADENA, California (Hollywood Reporter) -- The producers of "Lost" are looking to set a precise end-date for ABC's Emmy-winning thriller, which some critics say has lost its way this season.

A time line would help the show's creative team plot out the final story arcs of the marooned plane-crash survivors, executive producer Carlton Cuse told reporters Sunday.

"It's time for us now to find an end point for this show," Cuse said during ABC's portion of the Television Critics Assn. winter press tour in Pasadena. "It's always been discussed that the show would have a beginning, middle and end."

Cuse, who executive produces with Damon Lindelof, said there seemed to be "an underlying anxiety (among fans) that ... we don't know what we're doing."

5 minutes til the first new Lost in 3 months....and all indications are, its 'a doozy. BTW, isn't doozy a fun word!

Look forward to sharing opinions iwth everyone tomorrow.

[Moose]

WOW! Don't want to say it was worth a three month wait, but that episode kicked things up a couple of notches, and was riveting.

As soon as I saw Ethan in the early moments of Juliet's flashback, I was on edge. Does anyone else get creeped out just by Ethan's presence? And that creep factor paled in comparison to Ben being awake during the surgery. And curious, anyone think it is possible that Juliet really did talk with Jack about killing Ben?

What I liked best about the episode was we finally got off the everyone's a victim of thier circumstances theme that dominated the early 6 eps. It was nice seing Jack, Kate and Sawyer finally fighting back big time. They (particularly Jack) had become far too wimpy.

The bus was brilliantly done...it was obvious that it was coming, but still had a shock value to it.

And "well, we're a little outside of Portland" was the line of the night.

Ben is Alex's father? Or is that just what they tell her? If she is Rousseau's daughter, she's been with the Others for a long time. Or does Rosseau's connection to Ben warrant further investigation?


Anyone else remember last year, when Ben was trying to persuade Jack to do the surgery innitally...when he promised him a return ticket home if he did it? That resonated when Juliet revealed what Ben said that convinced her to help Kate and Sawyer get away.

Hopefully we get back to the main island next week. And catch up with some long lost friends.

[shtexas]

My only beef with the episode is we were still stuck with Jack, Kate, Sawyer and the Others only. But, I know they had to get a few off the island so we could move on from there.

Plus, EW's description was not accurate at all. It was a good episode but far less revealing than they made it out to be. It was more a relief that they can now get back to the rest of the cast.

Just getting a chance to post about "Lost".

Moose, I can't remember exactly how it went, but when Juliet was trying to convince Jack to do the surgery, didn't she set up some kind of monitor that showed her holding "cue cards" for lack of better words, telling Jack that accidents happen during surgery, and some of the others were tired of Ben's leadership, etc.? Isn't that what Jack was referring to?

[shtexas]

Just heard this on the radio. Not really a spoiler but a Lost-nerd kinda thing.

Juliette told Jack last week how long she had been on the island. Something like 3 years, 2 months and 23 days. Well, the Lost geeks plugged that into their big Lost computer which tells them when the plane crashed, how many days the castaways have been there, do some subtraction, and the computer says she arrived on....

drumroll.....


9/11/01.

Lost time. After last week's most excellent resumption, I'm excited to see where we head now. Hopefully back to Island 1 and everyone who has been missing since last May.

[shtexas]

Since the West coast hasn't seen it yet, I'm just gonna say I think it was pretty much a WOW tonight.

My head still hurts. I won't be wearing red shoes tomorrow.

[Moose]

I was stunned...and spooked.

And everything pointed to Clare up to the very end. I was thinking..Hah! I figured that one out. Only to have Desmond deliver another twist.

I had read in an intereview with the writing team that a backstory was coming that would either make people go "Whoa", or make people say I have had enough. And last night's was that episode. I'm in the "Whoa" camp.

I went into last night praying we were going to get almost everyone back on one island, with things developing from there. It went in a completely different direction. And it was so well done, I didn't feel cheated at all with still not catching up on Sayid, Jin, Sun and everyone else.

Gotta give additional credit to the writing team for how minor detail resurfaces. We've seen that picture of Desmond and Penny now for two seasons (the one of them smiling, apparantly at a marina). Do you think they really knew last year that it would play a role in such a important scene?

and yes, Jack...red sneaks are definitely off the list.

[shtexas]

I'm sure many will complain it was a little too Final Destination-ish. But, I always loved that premise, if not the execution of those films (except I liked the first).

[shtexas]

As far as the 2/21 episode, I am sure the meaning of Jack's tattoo has been at the top of everyone's list of questions they wanted answered. ::)

[Moose]

last night's episode was EXACTLY what the doctor called for. Things have been so dark for so long, and I missed everyone on the beach. Hugo getting the microbus running put a big stupid grin on my face.

And there was one moment that reminded me of how touching the show can be. When Jin (god, I love him, can't believe how I have gone totally 180 with his character) presented Sun with the flower, it was like reliving the airport scene from Season 1, when Sun was ready to leave him. And that was only one in a large dose of touching moments...Hurley talking to Libby, the shots at the end of Jin and Sun and Charlie and Clare while Sawyer gazes at them.

Sun's hair looked very nice. I wonder where on the island she has it done.

. . . and "Lost" continues its course of black genocide on the island . . .

Thanks for bringing back Ms. Klugh and promptly killing her. >:(

yes, TA, very troubling. Though I did read in a recap this morning that there isn't any guarantee that Ms. Klugh is dead (a stretch, I know). As important as she seemed in the final episode of Season 2, it was stunning that she re-emerged, only to be killed immediately.

I'm still waiting for word on Walt and Michael. I think they are bound (doomed?) to return. Andd speaking of missing characters, where's Rose?

I'm a bit iffy on last nights show. While I am greatly appreciating the return to the main characters, and very much enjoyed how they tied Sayhid's flashback into the story last night, I am amazed at Locke's stupidity in blowing up the joint. Unless Locke really wants to remain on the island forever.

I think Rose and her husband have permanently disappeared from the island just like those two whose names I refuse to learn have magically appeared and have supposedly been there since the beginning (you know, the two substitutes for Shannon and her brother. Â*They should not have killed them off if they needed more "hot", young white people on the island - yes, I'm quite bitter about what Lost is doing right now!) Â*By the way, Sawyer's line asking the female "Who are you?" was priceless. Â*My understanding is that he was speaking that for the viewers, so the writers know my frustration!

As far as Locke, I do think he wants to stay on the island, but I think his blowing up the communications station was accidental. Â*Plus, he didn't know the station was wired with explosives. Â*On a positive note, I love Sayid, but that backstory made me cry. Â*As wonderful as he is on the island, he was one bad you-know-what off the island!

Last night was just some awesome stuff. Reminded me why I love this show so much. Clare has been so wasted as a character for so long, and she finally got a chance to shine. And came through big time. The scene at the end with her mother was beautiful. As was the scene where Charlie read the note she wrote.

I won't comment on the big reveal moment since I don't know if everyone that checks this has allready seen the episode, but it wasn't a huge surprise to me.

[Moose]

thought last night's show was freaking brilliant....though the ending absolutely left me shaking (long running fear of that, for some reason). Don't want to say much else til anyone checks in, since it was such a different type of episdoe than the norm.

I'll definitely be pulling out the Season 1 DVD this weekend. Now I am extremely curious.

From a technical standpoint, it was absolutely amazing! Otherwise, I could care less about Nikki and Paulo, although the ending was good. The only thing I felt this episode added was to bring home the point why Sun shot one of the Others when that Other said she wasn't a killer. What the Others didn't know was the Charlie/Sawyer kidnapping episode and that Sun, because of it, really thought the Others would kill her if she didn't shoot first.

[Moose]

I'm very curious as to whether we have actually seen the last of Paulo and Nikki though, shtexas...Sawyer was very clear when he said "things don't stay buried here".

And the revisiting of Sun's "abduction" has to be more than coincidental.

Techinically, you're right. Can't wait to watch the pilot again this weekend.

And did you pick up on Shannon's snide little comment to Boone? Where did that come from?

I thought there might be bigger meaning to it as the episode unfolded. Seemed like something you wouldn't use as a casual tossaway line.

Okay, I missed it. What was Shannon's snide line?

Nikki and Paulo - I hope they remain dead. I believe it was Locke, not Sawyer, who told Paulo that things don't stay buried on the island.

On other message boards, people are complaining that this was just a filler episode. I kinda agree. How did it help move the story forward? However, I must say I was creeped out by the ending. I watched it 3 times. That was good tv.

Shannon said something to the effect of "flirting with another guy, Boone" after Boone had asked Paulo if he could have the extra chair at Paulo and Nikki's table.

Oh, yeah! I remember that. It was kinda puzzling, especially since I thought Boone was supposed to be so in love with Shannon.

that is what was so odd about it, TA. They made it clear in the first season how Boone loved her. OF course, they also made it clear that Shannon could be a total B****, so it's possible she was just being snippy. But it seemed a very strange thing to say, and then totally drop - I was waiting to see if it somehow came back into the story, but it didn't.

[Moose]

some good stuff last night. WTHIGOW Locke?

And Juliet is up to no good, I believe.

The stuff with Kate and her mom was really sad. I keep going back and forth about how I feel about Kate, but that left her a bit more sympathetic in my eyes.

I enjoyed the fact a lot of the cast was involved last night. I knew there was no vote regarding Sawyer from the start. But, Hurley wasn't just playing with him. He had a purpose - they need a leader with Jack, Locke etc gone. Except Jack will be back next week, so not sure where it will all lead.

Not sure the deal with Locke. Where did the Others go? And what is Juliet up to? These actually are fascinating developments...finally!

[Moose]

okay, so what's going to happen "in a week"?

Need some help with this question. Who all knows that Sun is pregnant....Kate does, Sawyer does. I can't remember if Jack does or not. Anyone else?

Man, between how that can play in, how Desmond's preminition skills can play in, how Locke being with the Others can play in, how those last two minutes play in...with 5 eps left, they are, I feel, setting up something huge for the finale this season. After a rocky start to the year, I think they have gotten incredibly on track these last few weeks.

[shtexas]

Lost was excellent last night (last week too) and I think we are coming to a climax that will have people talking all summer.

[Martini4me]

This week's Entertainment Weekly had an update on Lost. Apparently Nikki and Paolo were supposed to be par of a longer story arc, but because viewers were so enraged at the way they were suddenly dropped in, the producers decided to cram it all into one (filler, as someone said), episode. But it was quite ingenious the way they edited them back into the premiere episode. They couldn't have re-filmed those scenes, could they?
They also said Lost wouldn't be coming back until January 2008, so they could run the whole season without repeats (a la 24). And they also said what I'd heard before, which is that the producers will set a specific end/resolution date for the show.

Last I heard, the producers wanted to end it after 5 seasons, but ABC was pushing for 6.

[Moose]

at least we know Bernard is still alive...and that he's a Phil Collins fan!

That was a gruesome opening. I kind of felt that it wasn't real, but one of Desmond's premonitions from the beginning, but thought it was cool as it all played out as the episode progressed. Loved Hurley's reaction to Jin's ghost story.

Checked during a commercial to make sure, since it was a hunch that proved correct....the version of Catch 22 they found was the Portugese word for Catch.

And I'll admit to a cheat moment. Knew there had to be something up with the picture that was on the monk's desk, since they panned to it, but I couldn't catch who it was in the picture. So I checked a board today to see who it was. If you didn't see and want to know, I'll tell you.

Anyone else think Kate would love nothing more than to go completely gonzo on Juliet? And what's the possibility of Juliet knowing this, and wanting to drive Kate to Sawyer?

Overall good, but not as great as last week. But there is something ominous coming, that's clear.

OK. That deserves an OH MY!!! :shocked:

I love Sun/Jin backstory. It's always been the most emotionally satisfying.
