I love this show... what are your opinions people?

:D

[Duke]

I've yet to catch this show, but everyone says it's great. I'm currently working on getting the back episodes and will check it out when i do.

[Mandi-chan]

I posted a topic about this show once (I think on the GD forums), but no one had seen the show yet...
This show is amazingly good IMO, I love it to peices! It's my second favorite show next to TMNT and Firefly!

They showed a new teaser?! Damn! Knew I should have watched last night's repeat....Oh well! New eps, yay!!!!!! More Charlie!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D

[KROW]

Lost? I'm lost. What's this about?

[Mandi-chan]

It's a really good show, done by the guy that does Alias.

"From J.J. Abrams, the creator of Alias, and Damon Lindelof (Crossing Jordan) comes an action-packed adventure that will bring out the very best and the very worst in the people who are lost.Out of the blackness, the first thing Jack (Matthew Fox, Party of Five) senses is pain. Then burning sun. A Bamboo forest. Smoke. Screams. With a rush comes the horrible awareness that the plane he was on tore apart in mid-air and crashed on a Pacific island. From there it's a blur, as his doctor's instinct kicks in: people need his help.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stripped of everything, the 48 survivors scavenge what they can from the plane for their survival. Some panic. Some pin their hopes on rescue. A few find inner strength they never knew they had -- like Kate (Evangeline Lilly), who, with no medical training, suddenly finds herself suturing the doctor's wounds. Hurley (Jorge Garcia) – a man with a warm sense of humor despite the desperate situation – does his best to keep his cool as he helps those around him to survive. Charlie (Dominic Monaghan, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring trilogy) is a faded rock star who harbors a painful secret. Sayid (Naveen Andrews, The English Patient) is a Middle Eastern man who must wrestle with the racial profiling directed at him by some of his fellow survivors. Jin (Daniel Dae Kim, Spider-Man 2, 24) and Sun (Yunjin Kim) are a Korean couple whose traditions, values and language are foreign and thus causes much to get lost in the translation.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sawyer (Josh Holloway) has an air of danger surrounding him, and his intense sense of mistrust for everyone around him could prove to be fatal to his fellow castaways. Michael (Harold Perrineau, Oz) has just gained custody of his nine-year-old son, Walt (Malcolm David Kelley, Antwone Fisher, You Got Served), after the death of his ex-wife – they are a father and son who don't even know each other. Locke (Terry O'Quinn, Alias, Primal Fear) is a mysterious man who keeps to himself, and who harbors a deeper connection to the island than any of the others. And self-centered Shannon (Maggie Grace, Oliver Beene) – who actually gives herself a pedicure amid the chaos – and her estranged controlling brother, Boone (Ian Somerhalder, Smallville) – constantly bicker and must learn to get along if they are to survive.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The band of friends, family, enemies and strangers must work together against the cruel weather and harsh terrain if they want to stay alive. But the island holds many secrets, including the intense howls of the mysterious creatures stalking the jungle, which fill them all with fear. Fortunately, thanks to the calm leadership of quick-thinking Jack and level-headed Kate, they have hope. But even heroes have secrets, as the survivors will come to learn.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lost stars Matthew Fox as Jack, Evangeline Lilly as Kate, Ian Somerhalder as Boone, Dominic Monaghan as Charlie, Jorge Garcia as Hurley, Maggie Grace as Shannon, Malcolm David Kelley as Walt, Naveen Andrews as Sayid, Harold Perrineau as Michael, Josh Holloway as Sawyer, Terry O'Quinn as Locke, Daniel Dae Kim as Jin and Yunjin Kim as Sun.

[KROW]

Wow. That does sound interesting.

[Jo Dawn]

Always meant to catch this show, and I haven't yet. I need to see it from the beginning...

[cqb101]

My mom is utterly engrossed in this show(as well as 24), but I've missed so many episodes that when I try to watch it I fell lost.(Ha!) I'm waiting for the DVD.

[Duke]

Well i just saw the two part pilot and the show has serious potential. There is room for so much character development. Basically the show is about 48 survivors so there is so much backstory that can be introduced. Plus i've heard that the show has tons of plot twists which will keep my watching for now. Can't wait to watch more episodes.

[Brodie]

How could 48 people survive a plane crash?

Where did it land?

[Anarky]

SO, instead of creating a new topic, I decided to reanimate this one. There really wasn't anything happening here, except for all the lost people (Now we know why you're all here :D).

Well, thing is, the pilot aired in Germany last monday (repeated on Sunday on Pro7 if you want to catch it).

Very interesting, allthough I need to know who or what that freaking monster is. And why the heck is the window of the "tank" glowing when Locke is kneeling (I thought he was paralyzed again) on it?

[Mecha Cow]

The show has been going for a few weeks here (New episode tonight!) and I totally love it. The concept is very original and interesting and the storytelling is brilliant.

[ThirdMarioBro]

Strange show, but pretty darn original. Better than most sh*t on Network TV.

[damnhooligan]

I've only caught a few episodes of the show, but consider me hooked. Unfortunately, I tuned into the show after it had been on a couple-a weeks, but TVtome and countless spoiler threads have brought me up to date. Terry O'Quinn (Locke) is such a bad ass, and I love him for that. And Sayid... :tlove:

[Duke]

Wow I'm glad people on here are starting to get into this show. I thought about bringing the topic back up myself but since it got so little response the first time I found it rather pointless.

[Mandi-chan]

It's an amazing show, getting more and more interesting as it goes. I'm getting the dvd box set when it comes out, also it's been renewed for a second season!

[Radical Rat]

I know this thread is kinda dead, but I'm gonna resurrect it! (sorry, I'm a newbie, every thread on here is new to me!)
I love Lost, just downloaded the 1st ep of series 3 so gonna go watch that in a min!

[Mandi-chan]

Season 3 started off wonderfully (just as the previous two seasons did)!

This show is simply fantastic, I can't wait to see what the writers have in store for us!

[Peanut]

I know this thread is kinda dead, but I'm gonna resurrect it! (sorry, I'm a newbie, every thread on here is new to me!)

Just for the record, we don't allow necro-posting. Try not to bump up threads, especially when they're well over a year old.

[cqb101]

"The Red Sox won the world series."
"Now I know you're lying."



Hahahahahahaha. I loved this epsiode. Next epsiode looks to be great as well.

[Duke]

I just can't say enough about this show. I've been hooked ever since a friend of mine got me to watch a few random episodes back in season 1. The first 2 episodes of Season 3 have been great, but I'm totally looking forward to seeing what's happening back on the beach since we haven't heard from those characters since the end of season 2.

[VaughnMichael]

I really don't care what anyone else has to say...most of the people who think it's dumb have either watched one episode or haven't even given it a chance at all.
I love this freaking show...well besides the bas cgi polar bear lastnight lol.
I think lastnight was the season opening of the show and I think it was great...sadly this show cant go on much longer somethings gonna have to happen.:D

[Spitfire]

I don't watch TV at all so I've never seen this show only heard about it. You guys say it's good maybe I'll check it out. Right now I'm in the middle of checking out Samurai Champloo but when I finish that show*Still hasn't DL'd fully yet* I can rent Lost or something. But I'd rather the whole series be over before I bother with it. A show like that with a bunch of twists and crap. I don't feel like watching 20+ hours of programming and end up still not knowing the answer by the end of it.

[Duke]

I cannot believe next week's episode will be the Fall Season Finale. They only gave us 6 episodes then make us wait until Jan. to watch new ones again. Not cool, ABC, Not cool.

[Barkworm]

Wednesday's episode pissed me off. I'm sure this is somewhat connected to Akinnuoye-Agbaje getting arrested in September. No one gave a f*ck about Ana-Lucia but this... damn.

I agree with you both I'm very ticked off about them doing this...:evilgrin:

[Mandi-chan]

I heard that the guy who plays Eko wanted to leave the show, which is why he was killed off.

Pity, I liked his character (I like all the characters actually ^-^).

Oh well, it was an awesome eppie, as usual!

[Barkworm]

But it was out of character! Eko basically said that he's proud to have killed all those people. That's not him!

[Duke]

But it was out of character! Eko basically said that he's proud to have killed all those people. That's not him!I just rewatched Eko's first episode flashback, and he says basically the exact same thing to his brother. At first, I thought it seemed out of character too, but I think it was actually about him returning to who he actually was. I man who had a ton of faith in God, but wasn't sorry for what he did because he didn't have any other choice.

[Anarky]

So I'm having a terrible cold and because a friend from work gave me the DVDs of season two, I decided to watch it again. I've seen the first couple of episodes of season two until I got pissed off at the show, which wasn't giving us any answers but threw in more mystery-crap. I want to know where Frosty, the friendly polar bear came from. I want to know what the bloody monster was. And damn, a cloud of black smoke so isn't a good explanation.

Anyways, I'm now at episode 19 of season two (Yes, sleeping is rather interesting when you can't really breathe) and the second half of season two is much better. I am pissed at all the mystery they're chucking in all the time. And there's holes in the logic the size of Wisconsin. I mean, who writes something on a blast door in invisible ink? And why the heck does nobody notice a freaking plane flying over an island with no other traffic? That's not mystey, that's an obvious plothole. And does it really take a guy forty days to realize that he doesn't understand a word anyone is saying?

The new characters from the other side of the island are kind of fun. Eko especially, because he's the only one with a little bit of character.

Now I must go watch on... Bernard's about to make up a brilliant plan to save everyone which will fail.

[ThirdMarioBro]

I cannot believe next week's episode will be the Fall Season Finale. They only gave us 6 episodes then make us wait until Jan. to watch new ones again. Not cool, ABC, Not cool.

It's network Television. What do you expect?

[VaughnMichael]

It's network Television. What do you expect?
quality programing ahahahahahahaahahahahah:lol: :lol: :lol:

[Barkworm]

To be fair, they're doing this to show the rest of the season in a row. Last season had way to many breaks, this is not that bad. I'm slowly losing hope for the show anyway.

[Jo Dawn]

This is a show that I always wanted to see. Unfortunately, work and life always got in the way, and I never saw it, and I can't start watching now. And I can't afford $10 just to rent the first two seasons...

Ah well, I'll eventually get to watch it. I just hope it's not too... soap opera-ish... :ohwell:

[Anarky]

It's not too soapopera-ish. Most of the time they're trying to figure out something or they discover a new mystery or something. There are romantic tensions here and there, like Sawyer and Kate who are together and not and then again...

[Jo Dawn]

There are romantic tensions here and there, like Sawyer and Kate who are together and not and then again...

Ugh, I can't stand stuff like that. Makes me angry. Decide, already!! I have no patience for that kinda stuff.

[Anarky]

Yeah, well, having a stable relationship is kind of hard when there's impending doom everywhere...

[Duke]

To be fair, they're doing this to show the rest of the season in a row.I know that but it still seems odd to me. Oh well, at least we will get like 18 episodes in a row starting in Jan, which will be awesome.

And why are you lossing hope in the show? I've enjoyed this season. Well with the exception of the loss of one of my favorite characters.

[Barkworm]

And why are you lossing hope in the show?
I think this season is lacking the "WTF?!" moments so far which made the show so good. Nothing that happened really got me hooked.

[VaughnMichael]

I think this season is lacking the "WTF?!" moments so far which made the show so good. Nothing that happened really got me hooked.
and the giant black spirit thing wasn't a wtf moment because??:o
I mean computer or not I saw that happen and was all wtf!!!

[Anarky]

I think this season is lacking the "WTF?!" moments so far which made the show so good. Nothing that happened really got me hooked. Heh, that's just what I like about this season. I mean, they're finally not throwing in some more mystery, they're starting to play out the plots they have started. And an abandoned zoo and suburbia wasn't What-the-eff-y enough for you?

[Duke]

I think this season has had a few "wtf" moments. Not nearly as many as the the previous seasons but enough to keep my satisfied. Especially, the whole thing w/ Desmond being able to predict the future since the hatch has blown uphas left me "wtf". Like anarky, I'm liking that some of the plots are starting to move forward. Plus we had the polar bears return this season and I've missed them.

[Barkworm]

The season break finale was pretty good, Matthew Fox did a brilliant job there.

[LogicDonny]

Sadly, like all good shows, Lost will be ending quite soon.

They said the show will go like up to 100 episodes or something.. So um did you guys hear about this?

[Roseangelo]

All they did was set an ending date (which to my knowledge hasn't been revealed) so that the writers can plan out when and how to reveal anything. Makes sense to me. Although, if it's true that there will be about 100 episodes, that would only go through a fourth season. I love Lost, so I'll be sad to see it go whenever that is. I get so annoyed by all the complainers about it, though, because I really love the pace and they've actually reveals a lot within the last season. I don't know how people can keep saying that they never answer any of the questions.

ya it's too bad that we love lost.. All good things must come to an end..

The dvds will be with us forever.

[ThirdMarioBro]

I see no point in buying DVD's of a show like Lost. You already know what is going to happen, so there is no mystery, which means no point of re-watching it....but that's just me.

I figured this was coming with the ratings slipping a little.

[Anarky]

That's actually a really good move on the producer's side. Would you like to watch ten subpar seasons that hope to just cling to the first seasons' name? I know I wouldn't. Look at the fifth season of Andromeda, it's painful. And I don't want that to happen to any series.

So yes, I actually think it's cool that they end the show. Of course, I'd love to see a lot more of Lost, but hey, I'd rather have an ending than ten boring seasons.

Anarky, I never saw the end of Andromeda. Can You spoil the ending?

[Anarky]

Of course I can, although it is unbearable to watch: At the end of season 4 Dylan walked into the Route of Ages. When he comes out, he's on a planet called Seefra 9 which is in reality Tarn Vedra. Only that it has been screwed up and now the people lack water and basically, life's hard. Harper's been on Seefra for about 3 years, made his living serving under a mobboss, trying to rebuild Rommie. Beka has been on Seefra for a little less time and she's flying a cargoship for another mobboss. Rhade is an alcoholic mercenary and Trance is held by Beka's boss as a sort of torturing device. Dylan arrives, recruits the crew again, who for some reason distrust him. And because Lexa Doig was pregnant at the moment, they got Doyle. Doyle's basically another avatar of the Andromeda, dressed up as a blonde bombshell with big boobs and no acting skills whatsoever. Together they save Seefra 9, reunite Tarn Verdra with the Slipstream and eternal peace follows. End
Yes, it was as dumb as it sounds.

[Mr. Snackpants]

I'm glad this series will be ending soon. Don't get me wrong, I love LOST, but I'm disappointed in how it's going downhill. It had such potential starting out. I would like 5 seasons, but 100 episodes= 4. But they really need a 5th season after wasting season 2. I don't see how they could wrap it up in a season and a half at the rate the story is currently moving. I just hope the final seasons don't let me down. I need answers.

[Mandi-chan]

I'm glad LOST will be ending soon, and that it will end on it's own without being rushed.

I hate it when shows get cancelled and either give us a half-assed ending or no ending at all! It makes me happy to know that this show will have plenty of time to wrap up nicely and end the way the writers really want to end it.

Also, it won't be too long. I don't like it when shows drag on forever with poor seasons (Stargate SGI was guilty of this for a while...the last few seasons have been great though!).

[Time Mistress]

I love Lost! I don't think the quality has slipped at all. But I'm glad they have a planned ending in mind so that all can be revealed at the writers pace not network demands based on continued renewal or cancelation. I think Abrams is playing it smart after Alias's uncertain renewals (a show I loved even more than Lost) to be sure Lost will end with the good quality it started with.

[Mr. Snackpants]

Alright wtf? Am I crazy or did last weeks preview say LOSTs 3 biggest questions would be answered this week? I mean, I didn't really believe it, but i expected some kind of answers. But what did I get? More questions. Nothing was answered for me. It just pisses me off that they say **** like that to get you excited and watch. I would say F*** this show but I have to see how it plays out. But as of right now, i've lost major interest.

[ZariusTwo]

I think Abrams is playing it smart after Alias's uncertain renewals (a show I loved even more than Lost) to be sure Lost will end with the good quality it started with.

(Snigger), yeah, just like Alias:roll:

Abrams probably has had nothing to do with this since the end of the first season, except helping out on and off, he gets the ball rolling, but he can't stick with it, as a result, the hack sinks his shows because the other writers have to work on notes he's given them that don't reveal the full picture for fear of "teh spoilerz"

Five years says a lot about the guy, that's how long the NETWORK gives a s*it, but it only takes an Abrams show two to three for the mainstream to dessert it and it becomes one of those shows "for teh myspacers"

[LogicDonny]

Holy wow.

So the tattoes on Jack Fore-arm we seen alot during the series is actually a mark. Apprently this asian women he was sleepign with, etc found out her gift is to see who people are really are.

She said Jack was going to be a great leader but then she said there will be consequences so she marked him by putting those tattoes.

[Mr. Snackpants]

I really dont see the big deal about that.

[Barkworm]

That was probably the worst Lost episode ever.

[Anarky]

I thought it was rather good. The tattoo-thing was rather silly, but at least the series is going somewhere now. I like what I've seen of S3 better than anything S2 had to offer. Of course, it would have been more awesome with extra Eko, but hey, he's dead now. And resurrection would be too much, even for this series.

[Mr. Snackpants]

That was probably the worst Lost episode ever.

I agree. Especially since the preview hyped it up and said some of the biggest questions would be revealed. It didn't answer 3 questions, it presented 3 more questions:
1) Who is this new lady?(she sure looks familar, an awful lot like the old lady from desmonds flashback)
2) Who were the people watching Jack and how/why were they asking about Anna Lucia?
3) Why the f*** am I still watching?

[LogicDonny]

Well do you ppl want to like contuine watching the show considering the show isn't up to what it was last year or the year before?

My parents actually stopped watching it after the 3rd season went off the air after showing the first 6 episodes of season 3.

Serious they seem to believe it's gotten crap and they are right to a point but I told them I will be watching it to the end.. WHy stop when the show will be ending very soon..

[Barkworm]

I'll watch till the end but I'm not sure I even care anymore.

[Mr. Snackpants]

I'll watch till the end but I'm not sure I even care any more.

Same here.

Meanwhile, every person I know here at school is oooing and aaaaing at every "twist". I should mention these people havent watched it from the beginning so they are blind.

[Anarky]

I still find the show amazingly interesting. Not for the characters per se, but for the big mystery. The plot-twist, I don't mind, they can plot-twist all they want as long as they're eventually going to tell us what the heck's up.

And I'm probably the only one who thinks that season three so far was way better than the entire season two.

[Mr. Snackpants]

I don't think season 2 was so bad...at least not as bad as this season. In season 2 the hatch was full of mystery. The hatch did get boring towards the end (Im glad it was blown up), but it was interesting for the most part. Then you had the tailies. They provided interesting backstory and interesting additional characters. I didnt like how they were are killed off, but oh well. How can you forget Henry Gale? And the finale was just as good as season 1.

I can't think of any good things to say about season 3. The main 3 characters have spent most of the season in a room/cage. There isnt as much mystery of "the others" anymore. Sure, we still dont know exactly who they are or what theyre doing, but we know who they are. The others just arent intriguing anymore.

[ZariusTwo]

The mainstream are just dying to understand LOST'S sub-text
(http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/index.php/Nothing)

[LogicDonny]

Lost just started..

Flashback to Hugo's childhood past.. talking with a guy fixing this car and he's not fat at all. So we know he wasn't all fat..

Vincent comes running out of the forst holding a bony arm with a key, Hugo chases after the dog and finds a van. Sweet! Then Hugo is like "Awesome!"

[Mr. Snackpants]

I actually kinda enjoyed this episode, even though it was basically a filler. I was glad to see Locke, Sayid, and the rest of the people at the beach again. I like Hurley a lot, so I enjoyed hi flashbacks. The whole van thing was kinda dumb, but whatever. There was some good humor too and I liked it. THe ending wasn't surprising but hopefully it leads to some good action with the "dude w/ the patch" next week.

[Mr._Mutant_Man]

This was the best episode all season. IMO the story of people trapped on an island is way more interesting than Jack and the Others, which we got for so many episodes straight. I wouldn't mind Jack being killed off or brainwashed into a villain.

[LogicDonny]

I was surprised the french woman was the mother to Alex. I sure can't wait to see the man with the eye patch and the japanese guy in the tv screen was shown in the "next time on " clip.

perhaps we will get more info on this.

[Mr. Snackpants]

Alex was all the french woman talked about when we first met her......

???

[LogicDonny]

Alex was all the french woman talked about when we first met her......

???

lol i forgot.. Lol my fault. It been a couple years since I seen the first season :lol:

Anyways, looks like this was a good episode and were finally back on the other side.. Good to see the characters I loved for the past 2 seasons. jin kicks ass and now can speak english. well not completely but small doses.

[LogicDonny]

*Warning : Spoilers*do not click link if you do not want to spoil anything

http://entertainment1.sympatico.msn.ca/TV_Guide/TVNews/Articles/060308_lost_GD


last night lost was pretty good. The man with the patch was a "other" he lied that he was part of the Darma but something was fishy and Sayid knew he was lying. We had a flash back with Sayid's past and it was really interesting.

That link provides a couple spoilers.. One that deals with Jack and Claire. I can't tell you.

[Mr._Mutant_Man]

Oh, I see where that could come from. Didn't Jack's old man have some secret regarding Australia or something?

[Barkworm]

Anyone remember the times when this show was super-exciting? I truly miss them.

[LogicDonny]

not really. it got exciting when Kate and Sawyer got back to the regular cast..

The last 2 eps were good.

[Mr. Snackpants]

Ok so after we learn that Claire is Jacks step sister (OH! SHOCK! GASP!...NOT!) I pretty much officially think this show sucks ass now.

[LogicDonny]

ya pretty much the writers have pretty much jumped the shark long ago and now are just writing stories that are just like not smart writing. I missed the great lost that happened during the first 2 saeasons..

[Roseangelo]

Ok so after we learn that Claire is Jacks step sister (OH! SHOCK! GASP!...NOT!) I pretty much officially think this show sucks ass now.

Half sister.

[LogicDonny]

Well looks like things have progress quite a bit.. The man with the eye patch.. he got fried in teh head by the sonic pulse that the group found the poles with the things on the side all over.. locke threw him to test and he got fried drooling and showing blood ouch! the other thing we got to learn more of charlie's girlfriend the one with the baby the blonde girl.. Jack's dad is the father of the blonde girl.. i can't remember her name off the back of my hand it keep slipping Finally of all things, they arrived at the Others village and of course they see Jack but he is happily playing football and the last scene was him doing a touchdown throwin the ball on the ground :lol:

[Mr. Snackpants]

Half sister.

Ooops. Yeah, half.

As for Jack now seemingly one of the others, I figured something like this would happen. I predicted the next time Kate, Sawyer, and the gang saw Jack he would be changed, like brainwashed or something. Or maybe just pretending to follow the others until he could try to escape. I didn't think Jack would be back this soon, I figured they would save something like this for the end of the season as the big cliffhanger...Ya know, "Is Jack an "other" now?"

[Roseangelo]

I saw Jack at the end of the last episode as playing the, "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em," card. But I don't think his loyalties have changed at all. The moment he catches sight of Kate, Sayid, or Locke he'll be with them.

[Mr. Snackpants]

Yeah thats what I kinda meant...he's trying to convince the others that he is one of them now. And I could see the writers trying to make us think he was somehow brainwashed and switched sides, only to find out later he was just playing them.

[LogicDonny]

Oh man, Locke was the central character around this episode.

We learned more of him and his father and we learn how Locke got into the wheelchair John's father pushed him out the 8th floor of a apartment building tower falling to the ground

the group got to talk to jack but they were captured which pretty much be obvious but we learn that Jack was going to be going into a submarine with a few others and it is a 1 way ticket out since hte communcations have been destoryed by the purple sky incident back at the end of season 2

Locke destroys the submarine leaving all stranded on the island once again

final segment is the most weirest one I was expecting.. somehow the magic box is being talked about and there this door that Locke was shown.. it was opened and inside was John's father

nuff said, I wonder if the writers will solve all the plot holes by the end of the series hopefully, this show has contuined to surprise me and make me like huuuuuuuuh!? lol

[Roseangelo]

God I love this show. :tlove:

[LogicDonny]

God I love this show. :tlove:

So did you enjoy this episode?

:ohwell: I mean they try to make so many complex stuff but they might have gone too far.

[Roseangelo]

Yeah, I liked this episode.

Everything's so convuluted; I think it's great.

"Convulted" being the Lynchian series term for "crap"

If you don't like it, that's fine. But don't speak for me.

[Mr. Snackpants]

I actually enjoyed most of this episode, mainly because it was a Locke flashback and I really like him. The ending was so-so. Will it be explained next week or the week after? Will we ever know why Lockes father is there and how he got there? Or will this just be another mystery to never be looked into? It just seems like they always stick something crazy and rediculous in towards the end to get you gasping and talking to create a buzz and then never explain themselves. I guess it works for most people, but I'm never satisfied with it.

[LogicDonny]

It seems every topic always will have 1 a**hole ruining our thread by writing dumb crap like what Zarius has.. Zarius, stop writing in here if you don't like the show, please.

dude, shut up. he can post whatever he wants about lost in this thread, positive or negative. the thread is not titled "show your love for lost", it's simply titled "lost".

[愛]

Alright, knock it off. While Zarius' comments are extreme and opinionated, as always, he does have a right to his opinion. Let's get back to the topic, shall we?

Last night's Lost was much better than the previous few. I always enjoy a Locke story. He may be my favorite character. At least the story is moving along now. Maybe it won't next episode, but I'm fine with that. I got a little sample of what's coming up.

[Barkworm]

Who else thinks that Lock's father is the guy who conned Sawyer's family (i.e. the "original" Sawyer)? That would be a pretty neat twist.

[LogicDonny]

dude, shut up. he can post whatever he wants about lost in this thread, positive or negative. the thread is not titled "show your love for lost", it's simply titled "lost".

oh ya then why is it that I get modded for saying my own opinion too?
Huh I get picked on more than you guys.

You weren't simply giving your opinion.

As for Barkworms idea....that would be neat. It would be another good way to connect everyone together, unlike Jack and Claire :x

[LogicDonny]

i meant in other topics, bro.

However, back on topic, these questions we are asking ourselves, we should wait for the writers to show it on the show itself.

The video game section...No ****, bro.

Wait for the writers to reveal the answers? So you don't think people should speculate? That's what LOST is all about.

[LogicDonny]

Haha i remember. All started back when I got the psp.. that is how everything started going down the hill.. and peanut hated me for that lol.

then I aplogize and forgave him then everything is nice but he on the other hand hates me so he gave up on being my friend.. However I will be sending a FR to everyone who on xbox live to join me.

I can't post this in the video game thread.

[Time Mistress]

Last night's Lost was much better than the previous few. I always enjoy a Locke story. He may be my favorite character. At least the story is moving along now. Maybe it won't next episode, but I'm fine with that. I got a little sample of what's coming up.

I agree. Locke just may be my fave too. We finally got a big answer about Locke's past so I'm pasified for the moment on the revealed mysteries front for a little while. I'm glad someone was finally able to have one up on Ben, though Ben speech about the sub and the surprise at the end may have swung things back in Ben's favor. I hope not. Ben is the character I so want to see put in his place by SOMEONE! The writers and actor do such a great job of making me hate him so much. He's worse to figure out that even Arvin Sloane. I'm really not sure what to make of Jack this season. Is there any hope he's the one they'll kill off so Kate can be with Sawyer?;) And neat idea Barkworm, that would be very cool.

[Mr. Snackpants]

Such a good episode. It was nice for them to finally introduce Nikki and Paulo.

As for the ending...

It was surprising and then it wasn't. I figured something was up. How would they both end up "dead" without a scratch? The answer would be poison, but I didn't how that could happen. So them becoming paralyzed from a spider didnt shock me, it was a nice twist on the story. At the end there when Mikki opned her eyes...damn that would such to "be aware when youre being burried alive. Will they live? That looked like a lot of dirt on them so unless they regained full strength all of a sudden they should be gonners. It would be great to see the reactions of everyone else if they crawled out of their grave. But I'm pretty sure they're done.

Oh and a side note: Nikki is fine! :D

[Mandi-chan]

Once again, awesome episode (as always) from LOST!

I friggin love this show, not once have I been bored with it....it's always keeping us guessing!

Unfortunatly, there are impatient people out there who fail to understand that after nearly 3 1/2 seasons and complain about it...

Oh well, their loss.

This show is fantastic!

This episode rocked

What a way to die huh, that was pretty disturbing. But they, especially Nikki, deserved it.

Next weeks looks awesome too!

[Roseangelo]

Last night's episode was like a big family reunion.

Awesome. :D

[Barkworm]

Great epsiode even though it did nothing for the overall story. Poor Nikki, she was hot...

[Mr. Snackpants]

Another great episode tonight. It's really starting to pick up after such a slow span of episodes. It's starting to get me hooked just like it did in the beginning, it's exciting.

Wow, just as soon as they convinced you juliet was a "good guy", they reveal she is not...she is still working with the others. What is the rest of the plan? Where will she meet Ben in a week? It was also cool to see the communications building in operation and the news reports of flight 815 disappearing.

[ThirdMarioBro]

^What he said.

That was a great episode.

[愛]

Was anyone as excited about the previews as I was? I was flipping out. So many good episodes coming up.

And yes, tonight was a good episode.

[LogicDonny]

ya i agree.. questions were left have been answered. some of them.. now we need more..

[ThirdMarioBro]

Yeah, I absolutely love the way those bastards can answer a couple of questions, then throw more out there. The ending completely caught me off guard.

Yeah Rhen, I was totally flipping out too. :D Anytime somebody plays Requiem for a Dream during a climactic trailer, I piss my pants. It's a requirement.

[Barkworm]

The show is getting good again. Finally! It's funny though, it seems like the number of good episodes decreases with every season. I can already see the series finale being the only good episode of the last season (or at least that's what I hope, I could't bear another "Alias"...).

[Tabularasa]

Really? I don't know if it's just me but I think Season 3 is an improvment over Season 2. We're getting a lot more anwsers and there's no pushing the button storyline that got old pretty fast. If I have complaints it's that the scheduling did mess up the season a little for me and that technically the entire cast hasn't been together since the beginning of the season 2 finale. (Locke is still with the others)

I don't know if anyone has taken a peak at the spoilers for the next 6 episodes but Omg they look amazing and this is when Lost gets really good and I'm sure they'll leave us with a huge cliffhanger....although the bad part is we'll probably have to wait until January of 08 to find out what happens next.

[LogicDonny]

the problem with lost I think is the way the writers keep bringing in more and more plots but they never get them all answered but most of them.. That is one thing I hate about a tv show.

[Tabularasa]

Well the thing with serial TV shows like Lost, 24, Prison Break, and Heroes is that you really have to be discipline to watch it. You have to watch it every episode because if you miss one, you're really going to be lost the next week. That is why I think it is so suprising Lost was as popular as it was in the beginning of season 2. It's not for everyone. But if you can sit there and watch episode after episode and not get frustrated with no anwsers, you can enjoy the show.

I always say that Lost is like a really good mystery novel. The author is not going to tell you the big anwser like who commited the murder when you're only a little over halfway through the book. That's like Lost. They are giving away some good anwsers this season, but they're not going to give away the huge anwsers people have been asking since season 1. But sooner or later they will reveal their cards....as long as it's not another Alias where they keep a lot of questions unanwsered. Anyway, you may only have to wait until Season 4 to get all your anwsers as it's rumored Season 4 will be the last season of the show.

[ZariusTwo]

If the show is axed by the fourth, it'll be because the mystery could'nt sustain itself or the series, and there being given a chance to fix the mess they began and get back on track.

[愛]

It seems to me that the only reason people are still watching is because they want to know the secrets, not more character development. They need to stop with the piling on of more secrets and start giving answers. Then maybe they can keep going past four seasons.

[Tabularasa]

I seriously doubt the show would get axed. Right now the show is still getting 13 million people watching. I do agree that people are watching more for the mystery then the characters, but I don't think most people watch tv shows for the character, they watch for the plot.

But then look at the recent Hurley episode with the VW van. It didn't really foreward the plot that much but it was mostly all about those few characters.

[LogicDonny]

Did I hear somewhere the writers were going to make 100 episodes then stop? Or like make an ending to a point without the show going stale. I might be wrong but this is what I heard.

Can anyone confirm what I mean?

[Tabularasa]

Yeah Damon has been quoted of saying that. In season 2 when Lost had like 20 million viewers, ABC wanted Lost to go longterm, but D&C only wanted it to go 5 seasons. ABC was thinking of taking the show beyond 5 seasons even if they had to take Damon and Carlton off the show. However, since Lost's ratings have dropped, I think ABC is going to let them end it. I've been hearing that after Season 4 they will do the 5th season as like a mini season-something like 10 to 15 episodes to get past 100 and then end the show.

[Ninjinister]

What characters would you like to see episodes based on? I'd like one from Vincent (just for kicks, and because he's the only one of the Michael-Walt-Vincent triad still on the island), and Martin Candle (WATCH OUT FOR SHREDDER!)

[LogicDonny]

http://entertainment1.sympatico.msn.ca/Five+people+will+die+on++Lost/TV_Guide/TVNews/Articles/070420_lost+deaths_MH.htm?isfa=1

Major shocking! 5 people are going to be killed off in May on Lost. *Gulp* this is something that I don't like about these kind of shows because I have watched the characters grow and thrive.

[Tabularasa]

I heard in season 4 we'll get a Danielle flashbacks which sounds really neat since we don't exactly know what she knows about the island

Yeah I heard about 5 people. I have my own theories on who will die. Remember it says 5 people, not 5 main characters. I think one of the 5 will be Locke's dad. Anyway, I think season 4 is going to be all about a war between the others and the losties so anyone who will not contribute to that war is probably going to be written off the show by the end of this season.

Oh and if anyone is a Jack fan you should be very worried about the finale

[LogicDonny]

ya that is something I wanted answers alot I mean have they even explored all of the island?

I still want to see that smoke monster the one that killed off Eko.

[Tabularasa]

If you saw the recent Kate episode where her and Juliet were handcuffed together (although I don't really recomend it, it was one of the worse episodes of the season imo) the monster reappears. It like flashes Juliet (like it did to Eko) and then for some reason it can't go beyond the fence. I think Damon and Calrton said in their podcast this was because the monster can't jump? Not too sure but I think we'll see it again before the season is over.

[Mr. Snackpants]

Another good episode

It's good know Juliet is entirely happy "being an other". Why is she doing whatever she is doing i she hates ben?

THe ending was creepy. So they found the dead bodies of the people on flight 815? Weird. Did the others create some kind of fake crash site or something? With fake DNA samples or something? Who knows but I am glad that girl is starting to talk.

[愛]

I jumped up at the end of the episode and said.

ALL OF THIS IS A DREAM. THE SHOW IS ENDING THIS SEASON. F*CK THIS, I'M OUTTA HERE!

[Tabularasa]

Okay I liked last night's episode even though it was Sun and she really needs to go. Anyone who saw it knows the big thing at the end but they are not in purgatory and it is not a dream

What probably happened is that after the plane crashed the others were concerned about the rescue team finding the island so they got someone from the outside to make a cheap model plane and it crashed somewhere with no survivors which would explain why no one is looking for them. And the girl was no doubt sent by Penny

[Mr. Snackpants]

Oh yeah, how could I forget...MIKHAIL!!! How did he survive? It sure looked like he was dead when he was foaming and bleeding out of every hole in his head. When he came running out of the jungle I thought "Oh that guy again". There was a commercial right after it and during the commercial I realized, "D'OH" he had already died. He talked about the island healing powers but how come no one else has came back from the dead. And why hasn't his other eye healed then?

[Ninjinister]

Last night's episode covered two things that I saw coming (the blackmailer being Jin's mother, and Jin being the father of Sun's child), but Mikhail's sudden resurrection, and the parachutist's last words of the episode were total "WtF" moments.

If Mikhail's alive, does that mean there's a chance Kelvin is too? That would rock.

Still love the total last line of the show:

Hugo: What?!

[Courk]

I feel so sorry for Desmond. He loves Pen so much, yet he's stuck on this island for 3 years for no good reason, except pushing a button for a time with someone who's basically betraying him. He finds out about the betrayal, kills (or at least thinks he kills) the guy, thinks he's killed all humanity, finds out he didn't, but caused his new friends to crash. He tried to leave, but his ship came back. On top of all this, he has to worry about keeping Charlie alive and weigh the pros and cons of saving Charlie or meeting someone who could be Pen (but isn't).

[Chastity]

Last week's episode had an awesome ending! My guess is that there are 2 planes, somebody faked the crash of the 2d one, question is if Others did that in order for the World to stop looking for the survivors or there were 2 planes from the start.
I'm sure it weren't Others who planned the main crash, considering how they were surprised.

[Courk]

I can't quite remember. Did the plane only split into 3 parts? Our losties are from the midsection, right? Then there's the tailies, and the cockpit was in the jungle. Was there a front section, too? Or is it kind of divided between the cockpit wreckage and the losties wreckage? If the front section is unaccounted for, that could have been used to stage a crash area. In the middle of the ocean, I don't think it'd be unusual to only find part of the plane.

It split right in the middle. The tail end to one side and the front to the other. The cockpit must've broke off after this, because I don't remember it splitting in 3.

[Tabularasa]

I think the cockpit broke up before or after the fuselage hit the beach. If you remember the first episode of the show features Jack, Kate, and Charlie traveling to the cockpit to get the trancever and run away from the monster that killed the pilot.

[Tabularasa]

Some of you know 5 people will die this month in Lost. This is just a rumor, not confirmed but I thought I would put it out there for all of you to ponder. Apparntly the 5 that will die are:Anthony Cooper (Locke's dad), Charlie, Sayid, Ben, and Kate. Again not confirmed so take it with a grain of salt.

[ThirdMarioBro]

I knew it. I called it three years ago.

They're all dead. I've been saying it for three years. Looks like I was right. Juliet is dead too. That dude that took her? Conned her to come to the island, had her drink poison, died. She woke up on the island. Hurley. "Death follows me dude". No kidding. They're all dude. Ben: "The submarine is an illusion to make them believe they can leave whenever they want". I win. They're dead.

I called it bitches. ;) Now I've got to go collect a few $20 bets. :D

[愛]

I think that was the best episode out of this season so far. Judging from the previews, though, it's shaping up to be quite a finale. I'm really excited for it.

Awesome episode...they are really finishing this season strong.

[LogicDonny]

4 episode remains.. I don't have any words to say about this episode but shocked at what happened. Amazing stuff.. So this is all a dream?

[Courk]

This show is so much better if large chunks of the Losties aren't separated form the rest of them. It's also so much better if it's not focusing on Jack or Kate.

Great episode.

Does anyone else think it's possible the Others purposefully crashed into Cooper's car, and then posed as paramedics, kept him drugged until he was healed and on the island, before revealing him to Locke?

That's what I assumed. When he said the paramedic smiled and stuck a needle into him, I imagined one of the other doing it. He's not dead (well he is now).

[Ninjinister]

A great episode through and through. Next week is

A flashback with Benjamin.

There is no way this one can't be creepy!

[Tabularasa]

I can't wait for next week. The Brig was soooo good and the next 3 look even better. Its episodes like these that remind me why I love this show so much.

Also if you guys haven't heard. ABC is about to make the annoucment that Lost will end after season 5. 5 seasons is exactly what the producers wanted so I'm glad to hear that. They can also start mapping out the revelations now that they know when the show is going to end. ABC will also annouce that season 4 will begin in January of 08 so they can have no repeats. Also, the show will most likley change time slots.

[Raph's Girl]

Looks like Lost is gonna end in 2009.

http://www.aintitcool.com/node/32540

[Mandi-chan]

I'm very pleased to hear that the show will have five seasons (I had heard that the folks who work on LOST and ABC had made a deal of when the season will end, but never heard what season would be the final season...now I know...:D )

This show is excellent television, and I'm thrilled to hear that we have two more seasons in store for us. I'm also glad that they'll get to go through with whatever they plan and won't have to half-ass the end of the show due to a cancellation.

[LogicDonny]

It is a shame some people I know stopped watching the show after the 3rd season ended in the first half. they just lost interested but if they kept at it they would have been pleased with what been happening for the past few weeks. I kept watching it and I am impressed. 5 seasons is a good length for a tv show.

[Mr. Snackpants]

5 seasons is a good length for a tv show.

Not really...not for all tv shows.

[Tabularasa]

For serial dramas its good. It's enough to tell the overall story, and not too long that the stories get streched out too much. For Lost, it's the perfect number.

[ZariusTwo]

Serial based shows like 24 have went longer than five seasons, and let's not doubt it, there's something bigger occuring over the arcs.

Lost is ending with five because it's not half as popular as it used to be and is holding on simply by it's fanbase, and the team have realised their shelf life has become limited and are simply trying to please the fans they have left.

Lost burned out quick, just like every JJ Abrams show before it.

[愛]

The problem with Lost is they leave way too much out in every episode, and it keeps you hungering for more. So people are only watching because they want answers, not because the plot is good.

It sucks, but oh well.

[Tabularasa]

No, if you have been following the show and what the producers wanted from the first season, they have always wanted a 5th season. 24 can go more seasons because they tell a new story each season but even now its getting old and the ratings show that and its in its 6th season. Like I said after 5 seaons, serial shows tend to go down. ABC wanted something like 6 or 7 seasons so I'm glad the producers stayed withh 5. Watch the interviews from season one-they only wanted 5 and no more.

[Courk]

Lost lost viewers because of its time slot. 10 pm is late for a show to start. People who record it aren't counted (at least not as much), so if someone doesn't stay up until 11, they might not be factored in as a viewer.

[Tabularasa]

Yeah moving it to 10 was a bad mistake. I heard next season it'll probably be on a new night away from American Idol or at 8:00. They have recently been taking in DVR ratings. So instead of 12 million a night, it's 14 million a night if you count the DVR's. But still there's no way of counting how many people download it or watch it on ABC for free-not to mention Lost is the 2nd most watched drama show in the world. (Not an opinon, but a fact. CSI Miami is the first)

Its a shame the ratings are down because personally I think this is the best season yet. We're getting some good anwsers and the last couple of episodes (especially The brig) was amazing and one of the best episodes in the series. ABC orignally wanted 7 seasons, but I'm so glad they didn't agree on that. 7 seasons would make the show stale. Its one of the reasons why I don't like 24 this season. I feel like I'm not that suprised anymore and some of the plots have been done before. How many bad days can this guy have? But still its an awesome show and Jack Bauer is the greatest, I just hope they don't drag the show out for like 10 seasons.

Anyway 5 is what they have always wanted. In fact not even 5, they said after 100 episodes they want the show to end-but still no word on how many episodes Season 5 will have. We should be hearing an annoucment around May 15th.

[ZariusTwo]

No, if you have been following the show and what the producers wanted from the first season, they have always wanted a 5th season. 24 can go more seasons because they tell a new story each season but even now its getting old and the ratings show that and its in its 6th season.

And if YOU followed 24 more closer than you claim, you'd know that the new problems that emerge in the seasons come with a lot of things unresolved and expanded on from older seasons. There's been a larger story forming since the fourth season based on a conspriacy syndicate that's been traced all the way to the Chinese.

The ratings dip in 24 came because Drive was a failiure as a lead-in, hence why that was cancelled.

Lost is'nt the second most watched show in the world either, THAT is a fact based on the lowest ratings this season has produced for the show. If it were worth watching, people would have done so despite the preemptions

[Tabularasa]

um...okay, no need to get hot and bothered with it. I never said I watched 24 closley, I do watch it, but not as much as Lost. I was just expressing my views as an average, not a hardcore watcher, but an average watcher of 24 that this season seems to be lagging. It's not a bad thing. 24 went 5 great seasons without missing a beat. It has to slow down at some point, but who knows it could come back season 7 and be the best season of the series. And yes I do understand about the problems from other seasons including the chinease, as a fan I'm just losing intrest. That's all.


The 24 ratings slip happened before Drive came on. It hasn't been in the top 20 even when Prison Break was still on before it, I beleive. I may be mistaken. It is now around like 10 million people watching. 10 million is a lot and its still getting great numbers, just not what season 5 produced.

Lost is the second most watched show in the world. Not U.S, the world. It's tied with Desperate Housewives and CSI Miami is number 1. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/5231334.stm

Also Lost is the most recorded DVR show http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117962868.html?categoryid=14&cs=1


You can have your own personal feelings that Lost is horrible and 24 is great. But understand they are not going 5 seasons just because the ratings are bad. If that was this case, the show would end with season 4. They are going 5 seasons because that's how Dameon Lindelof and JJ Abrhams (who by the way has very little to do with the show now that he's doing movies) invisoned it.

I wanna know how you can just watch 24 occasionally...j/w

[Tabularasa]

I mean I watch it and follow it, but I don't read interviews or listen to what the producers have planned, etc. like I do for Lost. Its almost impossible to miss an episode of 24 and be able to follow it.

[Mr. Snackpants]

I mean I watch it and follow it, but I don't read interviews or listen to what the producers have planned, etc. like I do for Lost. Its almost impossible to miss an episode of 24 and be able to follow it.

ooh i see. yeah thats what I was thinking, you can't be a casual watcher and enjoy it at the same time.

[Tabularasa]

Well ABC made the annoucment. There will be three 16 episode seasons and the show will end in 2010. I liked the idea of a full season 4 and a mini season 5-not sure how I feel about waiting an extra year for the show to end, but at least we know for sure about it. So the end will be May 2010 with 6 seasons and a total of 117 episodes.

Are they going to the route of starting a nonstop season in January, like 24 has been doing? I guess I like that best because there is nothing worse than watching an intense episode only to hear, "3 weeks form tonight..." before the preview. But then there will be nothing to watch during the fall...

[Tabularasa]

Yeah when Season 4 was 22 episodes it was going to begin in January, now I think the next three seasons will air non-stop like 24, but will air in February.

[LogicDonny]

3 great shows running non-stop.. well almost 3.. Battlestar took a break for a bit.

24, lost, battlestar.

[Tabularasa]

OMG, wtf? seriously if anyone who watches Lost missed tonight's show you have to find it and watch it. Probably one of the best Lost episodes out there. Michael Emerson just steals this show again and again and if he is on his way out I'll be so sad because for me he saved some of season 2 and he really is making season 3 a lot better (not to mention Terry O'Quinn finally out of that hatch and the writing is a lot better imo) but the whole thing with Jacob got me a little uneasy. I won't say anything because honestly I have nothing to say about that scene. Just weird and I'm sure someone is gonna tvio that and give us screen shots some where on the net. But overall not what I expected at all. However I also think it is on the border line of really amazin or really lame. Like when Eko died from the fist monster. Really good or really lame? Only time will tell. If they can somehow explain it and make it beleivable then it should be good.

I was a little worried about Emerson not being in the flashbacks but the kid did good. I think Ben was trying to tell Locke that a second purge could take place. I'm a little confused about the relationship between Ben and Richard especially after the flashbacks. Kind of seemed weird how Ben just took control.

The ending was amazing. I think Locke is going to be just fine. But wow. Just wow. Amazing, amazing episode. This is like one of the first times in a while Lost has left me with a cliffhanger this good.

[ThirdMarioBro]

Yeah, I think Locke will be just fine, and I have to say...that thing with Jacob scared the sh*t out of me. Well done. And that kid they got to play Ben looked and acted just like him.

Best episode so far.

[Courk]

I was terrified during the Jacob scene.

I have no idea what's going on. I can't even form a coherent thought on Lost right now.

[Roseangelo]

The Jacob stuff also scared the crap out of me.

I also think Locke will make it... but damn does Ben have a lot of secrets.

And the running theme of Daddy Issues continues...

[Courk]

Oh, yeah, that was cold.
"Why celebrate your birthday? It's the day you killed your mother." (or something). Ouch!

[Tabularasa]

Yeah I thought this episode did a fantastic job of basically making us feel sorry for Ben and then what he does to his dad-wow it just sucks you back into Ben as the villian. I so hope they keep this guy around. I mean even if he goes this season his work on Lost will be remembered but I just feel like his story isn't over yet.

[Mandi-chan]

Once again, wonderful episode! LOST never stops impressing me!

I hope Locke doesn't die, he's one of my favorite characters.

The Jacob thing was creepy, can't wait to see more on that.

Ben was creepy too, but that's not new for him....it was interesting to see that he wasn't the leader after all.

The Jack/Juliet chemistry was great as always, looks like he knows what's been going on from the start. Either he already knew before he left the Others, or Juliet told him when they grouped up and left the Others.

I love seeing these two together, finally someone for Jack! She's great for him, and they have excellent chemistry.

Kate never had chemistry with Jack...friends? Yeah. But they never had the chem for close friendship or a romantic relationship that Jack/Juliet are steaming with!

I love Kate/Sawyer even though I hate Kate with a passion. Her childish little cat and mouse game she's been playing with him and Jack annoyed me to no end. I'm so glad Jack woke up and moved on...now she's Sawyer's girl (even though even HE's too good for her at this point!).

Can't wait for next week's ep!

[Mr. Snackpants]

The whole Jacob scene was really strange, but it really just felt like a cop-out to me...which is nothing new with this show. It was still a very entertaining episode, I loved the Ben flashback.

My biggest question of the whole episode came during Bens flashback when he snuck out of the secure area and he came in contact with a "hostile". Thats the same guy we see in present time right? He hasn't aged at all.

[LogicDonny]

he might be a ghost like we saw with Ben's Mother.

[Roseangelo]

he might be a ghost like we saw with Ben's Mother.

Well, my theory on all the dead people that have been seen on the Island (and there's actually a lot of them) is that they're all manifestations of The Monster. We saw on it's first encounter with Ecko that it has the ability to "download" information from a person's mind. What if it takes that information and creates "ghosts" from it?

But I suppose it is feasable that Jacob could be something similar. I think I read a theory today that Jacob himself is the Island.

[Tabularasa]

Yeah the guy Ben came in contact with was Richard. Either they did a bad job making him look younger on the island has made Richard not age. I got some serious questions about Richard-like has he seen Jacob and how is that Richard teaches Ben things but then Ben turns out to be the leader? Weird.

The whole Jacob thing was annoying. I hope that was the jump the shark moment Dameon was talking about but seriously after you find out that a cloud of black smoke cna read your mind, shape shift, and kill people with a giant fist, the Jacob thing doesn't seem all that bad.

[Courk]

I wasn't sure it was Richard at first, either. I thought it could be, but I wouldn't have been surprised if it wasn't.

The actor himself strikes me as one of those people who barely seems to age, so I don't think they could have done too much to make him look younger then without needing to use more make up on him now.

[Ninjinister]

My first theory is that it could be Richard's father, just played by the same actor. They never did reference his name as Richard in Benjamin's flashbacks, did they?

My second theory is Richard is far beyond what he seems. Perhaps he's been on the island for a long, long time. Maybe he was around with Adam & Eve? Or perhaps even further... a Black Rock survivor?

One thing I'm glad for, is that they solved the mystery behind the VW in "Tricia Tanaka is Dead". That was a fun episode for Hurley, but it had no substance, really, other than the fact that there was a dead "work man" named Roger in it with a lotta beer.

Now my main question is... just what the f--- IS Jacob!?!

[Tabularasa]

From Dameon and Carlton's podcast about Jacob:

Ben took Locke to see Jacob to see if he could hear or see him. The fact that Locke heard Jacob and maybe saw him, made Ben feel threatned that his leadership of the others could be taken on by Locke and that his why he shot him. Jacob will not really be discussed in the next two episodes. It will be more about trying to get rescued and the confrontation between the others and the losties. Jacob will be adressed in Season 4.

So my theory is that Jacob is real but for some reason only appears to certain people-he's dead. Jacob is dead (whether or not he is smokie I don't know) but when Ben said he saw his mother, Richard looked at Ben like this was special. So maybe that's the reason Jacob appears to Ben, because Ben can see the dead. Locke heard Jacob which means he has a extremly deep connection with the island that Ben has. I'm not to sure yet but defnetilly the whole thing with Ben's mother I think plays right into Jacob.

[Duke]

That would also make Jack very special. As he saw his dead father way back in the first season.

[Roseangelo]

That would also make Jack very special. As he saw his dead father way back in the first season.

Yeah, but Hurley also saw dead what's his name from the nut house and Shannon saw deadBoone. I'm tellin' ya, all these dead people are manifestations of the smoke monster.

[Tabularasa]

Yeah I thought it was pretty much known that Jack's dad and Eko's brother were really the smoke monster. I dont think Hurley's was the monster since we know smokie scanned Jack (the very first shot if the series) and Eko (In 23rd psalm) but I don't think Hurley got scanned since he was seeing Dave before he got to the island and who knows with Walt. I want to say Ben got scanned but in that flashback we never saw smokie get to him

Oh and when did Shannon see Boone? She saw Walt talking backwards. I think Locke was the one who saw Boone when he put the crazy stuff on the back of his head. But I may be mistaken

[Roseangelo]

I thought Shannon saw Boone in an episode towards the end of season 1.. mebbe I was mistaken; it's been awhile since I've watched season 1.

[Courk]

If the visions of dead people are the monster, how did Ben see his mom at his house as a child? The house would be behind the sonic barrier, and Smokey can't get through it.

[Tabularasa]

^ Yeah exactly I mean with Jack and Eko we saw smokie scan them but we never saw Ben get scanned and like you said the fence thing. So I think that there may be something seriously special with Ben and he felt threatned by Locke when Locke heard Jacob speak

[Duke]

^ Yeah exactly I mean with Jack and Eko we saw smokie scan them but we never saw Ben get scanned and like you said the fence thing. So I think that there may be something seriously special with Ben and he felt threatned by Locke when Locke heard Jacob speakLocke also had his run in with the smokey. It appears the only one that I can really think of who saw a dead person and didn't would be young Ben.

[Barkworm]

The last few episodes were simply awesome! I actually didn't believe they'd get their act together again.

[Courk]

Well that episode just about made me cry.

[Mr. Snackpants]

I called the future flashforward when I saw Jack all depressed. Crazy. But it caught me off guard when he said, "We have to go back." and "we weren't supposed to leave." I think Jack and Kate had to leave the rest of the Losties behind to save themselves and thats why Jack is depressed and wants to go back. Will the flashforwards continue for the rest of the series? We are at the halfway point. I think it's a brilliant idea and had never thought about it before tonight.

There's so much to say but I'm too tired to type.

All I can say is that finale delivered, Big Time

Naomis people must be "bad", how else could they keep this going?

A season finale has never left me wanting more than this one.

Simply Amazing.

[ZariusTwo]

Wait, so Lost has just pulled the same stunt Alias pulled for a season finale?


...Yeah, that ain't desperation:lol:

[Roseangelo]

Somebody please tell me there's a good reason Charlie locked himself INSIDE that room instead of OUTSIDE the room... does it only lock from the inside? I was too confused by that to even be sad... (Charlie was my favorite character... *sigh*)

The future thing didn't quite surprise me, as I wasn't fitting everything into Jack's "before the crash" timeline (although the mention of his father makes it a little weird). But what the last scene implies about getting off the island is the interesting part (and who was it that died?).

I hear we have to wait until February for more... :(

[LogicDonny]

The season finale lost streak contuines with success.. No doubt the writers weren't pulling any punches this time. When I thought

the other who captured Jin, Sayid and Bernard and shot them, i was in shock and almost cried because they were great characters but then when they mention of the bullet in sand it was a relief.

Also the jack flashback I kept thinking it was in the past before he went on Flight 815 becuase of that ticket in the corner of the screen near the end while Jack was in his house all drunk and drinking.. However when he called that women on the phone and they met at the Airport I freaked out and say what the heck.. Kate and Jack knows each other and then I knew there it was a future flashback which surprise me.


How about that awesome button code idea. the beach boy song Good Vibration as a code. Lol pretty neat thing there, writers.. Good job.

Do You believe that Naomi's group on the boat are the Dharma people but differnet ones who live in another place? What if they want to fight to get their island back?

[Tabularasa]

And Alias is the only show ever to do that :roll:

I think next season, or at least I hope, will take place in the future and the flashbacks will tell us what happened to everyone in the time that we skipped. I think this will acutally improve the show, I mean almost all the flashback stories are over and I think a lot of fans agree on island flashbacks are better. So maybe this is their way of making the flashbacks better? Or everything will be on island and they will have flash forewards? Not sure but I think if it's done right, it's an upgrade to the show. Just imagine having to see Jack battle his father and ex-wife in flashbacks or Sawyer con someone AGAIN in his flashes for the next three years. As for everything else, I think it was a great finale. Personally I kind of liked the season 2 one a little better (Probably cause I'm a sucker for Desmond) but defentilly a terrific episode and probably best of season/best of series list. As for Charlie's death I thought they really ruined him in season 2 with the whole baby needs to be baptized fiasco. But his storyline with Desmond really made him come alive again-which is pretty ironic since the whole story was about him dying. It was great honorable death. I think the reason he sacraficed himself (when he could probably still get out) was that Desmond said only if he dies will Claire and Aaron get rescued. So that's why he HAD to die. Anyway great episode. And I can't wait until February 08.

[Courk]

I'm not entirely convinced that Charlie is dead for good, what with the time travel stuff that seems to be happening now. I think in the main timeline he's dead, but I'm still holding out hope that things can change, including the events leading up to his death. It does seem a bit odd that it didn't occur exactly like Desmond's vision predicted. His other visions seemed pretty precise -- think of the arrow in the neck vision. Desmond made this one sound like Charlie swims in, pushes button, which causes water to flood in. Desmond should have known that Patchy McCoy would survive, have a grenade, etc., etc.

Speaking of Mikhail -- why won't he die?

I think it'd be interesting if eventually time traveling Jack, Kate, and Desmond can somehow alter all the events on the island so it results in no one dying by the end of the series.

[ThirdMarioBro]

Mikhail scares the hell out of me.

When I heard that car motor I started giggling, and when Hurley came flying out of the jungle in that Mystery Machine, I just jumped in the air, pumped my fist, and yelled "RAM THOSE MOTHERFU*KERS!!!" Then he did. That made my day.

And that show really knows how to screw with your head. I tip my hat to them. It will be a long wait to next year.

[ZariusTwo]

And Alias is the only show ever to do that :roll:
[/SPOILER]

Does'nt matter does it? The fact two Abram shows back to back did it shows how far their originality stretches

So much for trying to defend your s*ite:lol:

[Barkworm]

Is Abrams even involved in this show anymore? I think not.
Anyway, AWESOME finale, as usual. I'm not going to doubt the show anymore.
Especially after Walt returned. That was just great.


Oh and Charlie's death didn't really make sense. Much like Nathan's in Heroes. It was kind of touching though.

[Duke]

I'm calling/explaining it...
I'm almost positive it was Sawyer's casket. Jack's comment about the man being neither family nor friend, pretty much guarantee's it for me. Plus he expected Kate to be there and even though it wasn't a friend or family member, Jack puts his hand on it and starts to cry. It really could only be Sawyer.

Also, I'm fairly positive Kate is pregant. Because there are only two possible people that would wonder where she was when she went to talk to Jack. The first would be if she continued her "relationship" with Sawyer after getting off the island. But it wasn't him because his body was in the casket. The second logical person would be if she had a son.

[Barkworm]

Makes sense but Kate mentions that "he's waiting for me". Who's "he" then?

[Duke]

Her exact words were "I have to go, he's going to be wondering where I am." So, I really believe the "he" is her and Sawyer's son. Infants/toddlers often wonder where their mother went.Although, I could be completely wrong.

[Mandi-chan]

I love, love, LOVE this show!

What a freaking awesome finale, one of the best I've ever seen!

The Jack/Juliete kiss *yay!* (I love these two together as a couple, they have great chemistry, and have from the start!)

Jack telling Kate he loves her *BOOOOO!* (They have no chemistry, haven't since Sawyer and Kate started interacting way back in Season 1...the fact that she's a whiney bitch and toys with both Jack and Sawyer's feelings makes her even worse. Can you tell I hate this character?)

Hurley. I LOVE this guy!

And then, my beautiful rock god....Charlie.

The death of one of my top three favorite characters....man was it great!

Charlie died because he was trying to save Desmond (he couldn't be sure how powerful the explosion was going to be, or how fast the water could pour into the station) from getting killed, and also because Desmond had a vision he would die and Claire, the baby, and everyone else would be saved as a result.

Also, Des kept having visions of Charlie dying...if Charlie didn't drown then he most likely would have been running from death for the rest of his life (death that may have ended up endangering Claire and the baby...something he couldn't risk).

However, now that Charlie has died...perhaps this death curse is complete. If Desmond were able to get to him and revive him, maybe he'd be free of this death cycle because he HAD died.

I'm really hoping Desmond can get to Charlie, swim him back inside the Looking Glass, and give him CPR to bring him back to life.

If the character is going to stay dead, then I hope Desmond still tries to revive him, and then when he fails to do so, brings him back to the island to bury him.

If Charlie is indeed going to stay dead, then I will truly miss him.

PP&J was a adorable romance that I was glad to see live and thrive, and Charlie was always a favorite (even with his moments of dickyness in Season 2).

[Mr. Snackpants]

I'm calling/explaining it...
I'm almost positive it was Sawyer's casket. Jack's comment about the man being neither family nor friend, pretty much guarantee's it for me.

The first would be if she continued her "relationship" with Sawyer after getting off the island. But it wasn't him because his body was in the casket. The second logical person would be if she had a son.


That idea that Sawyer was in the casket is pretty awesome, never thought of that.

I figured Sawyer was the "he" Kate was reffering to, but it could be their son as suggested. Who knows.

I believe the reason Jack is so depressed and feels he "has to go back" is because he, Kate, and perhaps Sawyer all got off the island but left everyone else behind. Now he feels guilty that he never led them all home like he so badly wanted to do in the finale.

[Tabularasa]

Does'nt matter does it? The fact two Abram shows back to back did it shows how far their originality stretches

So much for trying to defend your s*ite:lol:

I could go on about how this is diffrent and how little Abrhams had to do with both shows, but seriously there's no point in it. You probably don't even watch Lost just come in and bash it so I won't bother.

As for the finale it was great and for the first time I'm not sure what they're going to do. After the first season finale it was obvious it was going to be about what was in the hatch and what happens to Michael, Sawyer, and Jin. After season 2 it was what happens to Jack/Kate/Sawyer now with the others, and are Desmond/Locke/Eko ok? But now I got nothing. Such a great finale that really payed off well. I was really worried with the first 6 episodes of the season being pretty bad (Except for maybe the last two) but ever since they came back from the break it's been great and the last three or four episodes of the season have been some of the best ever. I can't wait for season 4.

[LogicDonny]

Charlie drowned didn't he, we saw him drowned in the water..

So I dunno who's in the casket.

you know it's just isn't fair forSawyer to treat Hurley like this. Just becuase he's big doesn't mean he can't help, oh he did alright by ramming those others with his awesome van.

Too bad the skeleton Roger wasn't in therem that would make them like whoa!!

[Duke]

you know it's just isn't fair forSawyer to treat Hurley like this. Just becuase he's big doesn't mean he can't help, oh he did alright by ramming those others with his awesome van.He didn't want Hurley to get hurt. That's why he told him not to come. The exact same reason Charlie didn't want him there.

[Courk]

I felt so bad for Hurley, even though I knew that Charlie and Sawyer were acting like that just to protect Hurley. Charlie made it a bit obvious that he didn't mean it, plus, IIRC, Hurley knew about Desmond's visions, so he could have reasoned out what Charlie needed to do. Even though Sawyer was less obvious about it, having just had Charlie do the same thing would have helped Hurley realize that Sawyer, too, was trying to protect him (plus it's not that difficult to figure out in the first place, no matter how unobvious a person is being).

[Ninjinister]

And that show really knows how to screw with your head.

That's the EXACT reason I watch the show!


Wait, so Lost has just pulled the same stunt Alias pulled for a season finale?

The difference being... people actually watch Lost. :roll: :evilgrin:



It was really hard to wrap my mind around the events of the episode. Seriously. Lostpedia was right to award this one two mindf**ks.

I actually played "You All Everybody" on a continuous loop for 4 hours in tribute for Charlie. Rest in peace, ya Hobbit ya. :cry:

[愛]

Lost is starting a new season tonight, so I figure we bring this thread back for discussion of the episode!

So...how 'bout them new doods?

[Mr. Snackpants]

I watched the second half of last season this week and then the two part finale with "aWesum xtraz!1!!" last night. I think I'm ready now, because before watching the last half of S3 this week I forgot almost everything. I guess that'll happen when it goes on break for 8 months.

[Roseangelo]

The "extras" on the finale last night were rather funny just because they were so... pointless. Well, mostly. Some of the stuff would be useful information if you were a hermit secluded in a cave with no internets, but some of it was just, "This is Jack. And this is Kate." Great, thanks for that...

Anywho, really looking forward to tonight's episode!

[Mr. Snackpants]

I waited 8 months for that? **** it.

The only thing we learn comes in the first 3 minutes. Hurley gets off the island and there were only 3 more after him, Jack, and Kate. We also learn Jack was a happy normal guy when he first got home. That's basically it. We already knew the people on the boat aren't who they say they are. Not that it matters because you only see one guy from the boat for 4 seconds. OMGS he knew Jack's name, Holy ****. Nothing else happened, throw the viewers a bone, we've been waiting for this premiere for awhile. All the questions from last seasons finale will start to be addressed next week. This episode was useless. At least give us a good cliffhanger. It does seem like it was intended to be a 2-hour, 2 episode premiere, but they couldn't because of the writers. I don't know. The one thing that was interesting, however, was Jack asking Hurley if he was going to tell.

[Roseangelo]

Well, I don't require every single answer in an episode, so I enjoyed it immensely. 8)

And Charlie is the best looking ghost I've ever seen!!!

[Mr. Snackpants]

I don't require every answer in an episode either, but after such a great finale last year and the hype they put into it, I expected something better than this. I would've liked to see the people on the boat and what they're main objective is. The premiere was basically a filler until next week.

[Roseangelo]

Well, I think you already spoke the likely truth: It was meant to be a a 2-parter aired in one night, but with the writers strike the need to stretch it out as long as possible. The show needent be blamed for that.

[ZariusTwo]

It's almost refreshing not to have a two hour premiere for once. We've never had any UK dramas (except the ones in a two hour format, or specials) have such distinctionsl, and it means easy numbers for the stronger portion.

[愛]

I had a feeling that they would do a recap for the first hour. And to be honest, it helped me out a bit. It's been a very long time since I've actually put any Lost DVD's into my PS2. They simply should've clarified before airing that the first hour would be a recap. I got all excited for two hours of new content, only to be disappointed. I'm not upset, but I feel deceived!

As for the episode...meh. I kinda lost interest halfway through and started browsing the internet with the episode in the background, looking at the TV every so often. That kind of indifference to a show I've been looking forward to for so long isn't a good sign. But you know, of course I'll watch the next episode. I'm sure it gets better.

[Mr. Snackpants]

Well, I think you already spoke the likely truth: It was meant to be a a 2-parter aired in one night, but with the writers strike the need to stretch it out as long as possible. The show needent be blamed for that.

Yeah, see I figured but I wasn't sure.

If I understand correctly they have 8 episodes taped. So that will last through the end of March. I would've rather had the 2-episode premiere last night and only get 7 weeks, rather than a boring part 1 and 8 weeks. Also like Ai pointed out, everyone I knew thought it was 2 hours, not an hour recap and 1 new episode. They're site said the 2 hour premiere event and didn't really clarify. I guess if I had a cable box w/ a guide I would've known.

The recap was nice. I did find it interesting that they never talked about the tailies. Maybe I wasn't paying close enough attention because I was studying at the same time, but if they did it was quick. They were a huge part of season 2, we spent so much time getting to know them. Now they don't even get mentioned in a recap. It doesn't really matter, I guess, because they played no part in the big picture.

[Mr._Mutant_Man]

I liked the episode a lot. At this point I'm used to Lost's slow pace, so I just sat back and enjoyed the drama of who wanted to stay and who wanted to go and people being all sad that Charlie died. Plus since it was Hurley centered and not Jack or Kate centered, I was going to enjoy that while it lasted.

[Mecha Cow]

Oh, so is this how it's going to be, Jack? If you're asking me to choose between you and Locke, you're gonna get the short end of the stick, pal.

[Mandi-chan]

Oh, so is this how it's going to be, Jack? If you're asking me to choose between you and Locke, you're gonna get the short end of the stick, pal.


LOL, same here.

I like Jack, but I'd follow Locke anyday.

[Mr. Snackpants]

Now that was a great episode of Lost. It actually progressed the story.

So they are there for Ben, but I assume it's more about Jacob. Miles is a 'ghost hunter' dude, so I imagine that's what they're ultimately after.

The black guy that hired them all, what was his name? He said it to Hurley last episode but I didn't hear it. Looks like he was the one who made the cover up crash of flight 815 by the way he kept insisting there were no survivors when talking to Naomi. They must know of the islands 'power' and the way to it is through Ben/Jacob.

Maybe it has to do with 'the purge'?

Is Michael Ben's man on the freighter? He told Michael 'there will be a boat waiting for you' when Michael left, if I remember correctly.

[Barkworm]

NECROPOST!

Is no one watching anymore? I think the new season has been amazing so far, definitely better than the last one.

[Roseangelo]

I've been faithfully watching Lost since day 1. Definitely my favorite American TV show at the moment. :)

I agree that this season has been quite amazing so far. But thinking about it too much can make my brain hurt. ;)

[poiuytre]

I really want to watch Lost again. I really do. But the commercial breaks are killing me. I'm just going to wait for a DVD release or something. (Only seen three episodes of this season)

[Mecha Cow]

In a way it's a good thing that this season has less episodes than the previous ones because it makes for a more concentrated and intense experience. I don't think this season has had a single weak episode so far.

[ZariusTwo]

In a way it's a good thing that this season has less episodes than the previous ones because it makes for a more concentrated and intense experience. I don't think this season has had a single weak episode so far.

I think television ought to seriously consider reducing 22 episodes to 13, it's done wonders for early successes and Doctor Who, and it would allow mid-season shows to be a frequent occurence

[Mr. Snackpants]

I really want to watch Lost again. I really do. But the commercial breaks are killing me. I'm just going to wait for a DVD release or something. (Only seen three episodes of this season)

Wow you won't watch a tv show because it has commercials?

[Zog the Equalizer]

Wow this show is amazing. I didn't actually start watching until a month ago when a friend let me borrow season one on DVD. I caught up as fast as I could and wow. I had no idea something on ABC would actually be good much less the televised drug addiction that is LOST.

[Barkworm]

Last episode's very last scene was beyond amazing, especially Widmore's lines and Alan Dale's performance. Simply beautiful.

[Ninjinister]

Wow you won't watch a tv show because it has commercials?

The commercial breaks of this past episode were very short, keeping in tune with the quick pace of the subject matter.
