Ug…this Thursday could be difficult. With all the tournament games and the fact that I may be at a bar sloppy drunk when Lost starts means I could miss it. Not to mention that my VCR doesn’t record any shows once I switched to cable last year. Hmmmm…
Stevo
you can stream lost from many sites on the internet now-a-days
Yeah Sayid is definitely confused about who is evil and who is good, but thats the genious of the show!
I loved the return of Tom and Libby to the picture! Tom is so damn cool (even if now he is gay…what was the point of that??..gives new meaning to him saying to Kate “yer not my type.”), and the way Libby was thrown off the show way back in season 2 left me with so many questions.
Only a few more weeks until it all starts up again! I’ll admit I’m surprised that they’ll be getting back to the show so quickly. I missed the last episode of last season because of March Madness so hopefully I’ll get a rerun of it.
Of course they moved it back to 10pm…thanks for nothing, ABC. Heaven forbid that your Ally McBeal ripoff, Eli Stone, doesn’t get all the exposure it needs.
Stevo
i think eli stone is on a different night now or something
yeah next thursday it comes back on right?
nice, till then new SP tonight
Actually, I looked at the listing tonight and the reruns are on THIS week. Good thing I checked the listings. It looks like it’s actually the last TWO episodes in a row tonight so check them out if you missed one like me.
Stevo
thanks for the notice!
I finally saw the last episode last night. Interesting stuff and lots of classic cases of Michael being a spineless loser as always. I think that Carl dude is dead since he never provided crap to the show but I’ll bet Rousseau survives. Looks like a CRRAAAAZY episode next week.
Stevo
^Actually I was surprised they had new episodes coming up so quickly after the last ones. And be happy…almost every other show had NO new episodes last season…at least Lost fans got eight.
Stevo
Yeah I’m F’n pumped for Thursday fo sho
Whoa. Is it next week yet? Good stuff this week (except for some stormtrooper-like accuracy). So is Widmore immortal? And from when did Ben jump to arrive in Tunisia?
Icc- once you are caught up, it’s all downhill from there. Watching in real time is the worst way to do it. The ads happen too often and waiting a week for more has been likened to heroin withdrawal.
OMFG
I forgot about this episode from last night until I saw this thread, but I have no idea how I’d forget that. Most action-packed episode ever for sure.
all I can say for now is SMOKE MONSTER!!! Cripes that was cool.
nice one last night…
Alpert shows his face again.
creepy black guy is back in the plot.
crazy shit goin down in LOST town
^Yeah, definitely a VERY interesting episode. In fact this entire season has been pretty awesome with very few “dud” episodes.
First there’s the thing with Locke’s past. Obviously he was targeted since birth by the Others to do…uh…something. The part where Richard put all those items in from of young Locke was eerily similar to how they pick the Dalai Lama…they set the old Lama’s belongings in front of a kid who was born right as the Lama died and if he picks the right things that belonged to the old Lama they assume he’s the Lama reincarnated. Perhaps it’s the same for Locke…a reincarnated version of a leader of the Others? Plus they seemed to keep wanting to drive Locke toward science but he kept going towards adventure and such so they had to get him on that plane to get him on the island.
Even stranger, a co-worker mentioned that in the episode where it showed Ben being born and his mother dying, the people who helped Ben’s father was none other than that Horace guy and the teacher from the Dharma group who eventually hired Ben’s Dad. So maybe Ben was targeted too.
As for Claire, I wonder if she’s already dead. When we saw that Kate had Aaron in the future, I assumed Claire was gonna die on the island. Then when those missionaries blew up her house, I assumed that was her death there but then Sawyer found her with only a few scratches…it seemed amazing that she survived that to me. But perhaps she DID die and like Christian she was somehow “revived” by the island but is now a part of the island itself and will do its work by being part of that cabin.
Lastly, the “move the island” thing seems to make a bit of sense as it explained that polar bear with the Dharma logo they found in the desert. Perhaps the island moves location AND time. Or maybe the island itself doesn’t move but the essence that makes that island special is what moves. That would also explain the weird landmarks and the polar bear as those were things that the island “picked up” in the last few places it’s been. Also, perhaps it explains why Ben wakes up in Tunisia and doesn’t know what time it is…the island “moved” on him and somehow left him there…I dunno…just a theory.
Only two weeks left. A one-hour episode then a two-hour episode-of-chaos after that. It’s gonna be wild.
Stevo
I hereby recind the notion that Richard Alpert ages ‘normally’. Anyone here a notary?
Yeah, I think she’s dead too but I didn’t even think of the Niles angle. I thought he might just be trying to be friendly, but I didn’t realize that. Though, wouldn’t he know for sure that she was dead? I suppose he might know and hasn’t told anyone though…
By the way, when the helicopter pilot dropped that beacon thing to Jack and his crew, was he trying to lure them to the helicopter so he could get them off the island or was he trying to tell them to avoid the beacon because that’s where the soldiers are?
And I’ll bet that scene where they show them landing on the homeland is a flash forward again…they can’t be getting off that quickly. According to the episode guide, this is Part 1 of a three-part series so things will start heating up (though both part 2 and 3 are on next week as a two-hour special).
Stevo
I’m most intrigued by the Christian Sheppard thing…
I just don’t know what to think about that character…and yeah something fishy is going on with Claire there, because there’s no way she would just suddenly be OK with Aaron being left in the jungle for Sawyer to hopefully find him.
and will Jack ever have a confrontation with his father on the island before he leaves? Maybe thats why he wants to go back to the island so badly in the future. He did see him a few times in season 1 walking into the jungle, but I think he dismissed that as hallucinations…until he started seeing him again in the future (the smoke alarm scene)…
finally, I WONDER WHATS GONNA HAPPEN WITH SAYID NOW!! and Desmond for that matter…we know he’s not an Oceanic 6 so somehow he mustve been forced back to the island, or gets killed.
I think that because Christian’s (and possibly Claire’s) dead bodies ended up on the island, the Island kind of “recruited” them to give the island’s message to those still living. We’ve seen the island use dead people (Charlie, Eko’s brother) before to deliver messages and both of their bodies were also on the island. I guess this doesn’t explain the visions of Walt but, oh well.
I really liked the drawing of young Locke last episode where he drew black smoke attacking some stick figure…that was pretty creepy.
Stevo
They’re referring to you as the “Oceanic 6.”
Hard to comment on last week’s since all it did was set up the two-hour finale. Either way, I’ll bet that device on Keamy’s arm will set off the C4 on the ship…either he has to type it in or it’ll explode if he dies. So watch someone shoot him on the island and then blow up the whole tanker as a result.
Should be lots of chaos two weeks from now…I just hope the Wings aren’t playing the same night…
