Lost....What is up with the "Others"?

[TheTruth]

Are they the good guys like they say?

TONIGHT!!!!

[katyon6th]

You had to start a new thread, didn't you?

[TheTruth]

New Season = New Thread

[MannyIsGod]

Will it be 2 hours tonight? I need me more than one hour of Lost. One hour just isn't enough.

[TheTruth]

No, just 1 hour.

[MannyIsGod]

Thats weak.

[CharlieMac]

They're up to shenanigans.

[tlongII]

MLB Playoffs >>>>>>>>>> Lost

[MannyIsGod]

Lost > World Series

[Spurminator]

Should be an interesting year. I hear it will be less mythically convoluted.

Lost, then South Park premiere. Good TV night.

[1Parker1]

:elephant Can't wait...did they change the time? Is it on 8 or 9 EST?

[katyon6th]

Damn dancing crap is on at 8 est, Lost is on at 9 est, and the new show The Nine is on at 10 est.

[Phil Hellmuth]

Lost is very similiar to weed.

Make you stuck on the couch, very intriguing, and you sometimes feel spaced out watching tv.

At least at my house, the first doesn't go without the second very often.

No, it's not. And I know this because I know weed.


well i don't know what you smoke :lol

[Ballcox]

Ok, I'm a little behind on this show. I recently watched the first season on DVD and I'm definitely going to watch this season, but I have no idea what the hell happended in the 2nd season. Can anyone give me a quick rundown on the main points of season 2 before I watch the opener later tonight? Much appreciated!

[katyon6th]

Read the other Lost thread.

Actually, I would go out and buy the 2nd season. Watch it. Don't watch tonight, but record it. Then when you're done, watch the episode tonight. Reading what you missed out on kinda sucks compared to actually watching it, IMO.

[MannyIsGod]

Where you stay at? Holla!You saying "holla" is weird.

[katyon6th]

You saying "holla" is weird.

I know, it really is.

Can you hear me saying it? Yeah, me neither.

[jman3000]

my friend and i actually watched the entire first season of lost in about 3 days right before season 2 premeired... never again.

I'm thinking the others are the good guys... and a bigger antagonist is gonna show up.

[MannyIsGod]

Dude, I can't wait to find out wtf happend with the big explosion/light and what the fuck happend to desmond. Whats up with Desmond's wife?

The others are probably the least of my concerns right now!

[Sonia_TX]

6 hours to go!!!

[Vizzini]

I've hear we only get to see four of the regular cast members in tonight's episode. We will for sure see Jack, Kate, & Sawyer, with the fourth member either being Michael, Hurley, or the fake Henry Gale guy (if they consider him to be a regular all ready). I can't wait, tonight is going to be awesome, it's too bad that I wont be able to watch it live (thank God for the DVR) because the Tigers are in prime time again, but I'm assuming their game will be done by Midnight (EST) and then I will be able to watch the commercial free version just before bed time. FWIW, it is a Jack flashback tonight.

[leemajors]

Will it be 2 hours tonight? I need me more than one hour of Lost. One hour just isn't enough.

at least you get an hour of it. entourage is like 23 mins. i am still kinda pissed they split up this season, and now i hear season 4 will be only 12 episodes or so. weak sauce!

[Vizzini]

Well, according to this article in The Detroit Free Press, Michael won't be around this season

http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20061004/ENT03/610040350/1038





Here is a "Lost" plot primer, with a peek at what might be coming:

• Jack Shepard (Matthew Fox), James (Sawyer) Ford (Josh Holloway) and Kate Austen (Evangeline Lilly): The trio at the heart of the story, intrepid doctor Jack, con man Sawyer and tortured bad girl Kate are prisoners of the Others, traded by fellow castaway Michael for his kidnapped son, Walt. ABC released photos of Sawyer in a wooden cell and Jack in a flashback to his doctor days. Harold Perrineau, the actor who plays Michael, isn't on the cast list this season. Sawyer and Kate face hard labor, while Jack gets a tempting offer from the Others' leader. Producers have said Kate chooses between Jack and Sawyer.

• Desmond (Henry Ian Cusick): Originally a bit player, Desmond surfaced last season as the guy who pushed buttons for years inside the hatch before the Losties discovered him. We know Desmond becomes a bigger fish this season because Cusick joined the permanent cast.

• The Hatch: Before this space was blown up by Mr. Eko (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) at the end of last season, it was the hub of action. It revealed details of the Dharma Initiative experiment and contained a computer that required regular input to avoid disaster --activating an electromagnet that can pull down a plane, it turned out. We think Mr. Eko and Locke survived the blast.

• The Numbers: Introduced as the digits that Hurley (Jorge Garcia) played to win the lottery, they kept popping up in episodes and were explained this summer in the Lost Experience, an online game. They are the key to a formula predicting exactly when the human race goes extinct. The Dharma Initiative was an experiment aimed at forestalling that apocalypse.

• Sayid (Naveen Andrews), Jin (Daniel Dae Kim) and Sun (Yunjin Kim): The Losties' redeemed Iraqi soldier Sayid pulls together a party of survivors to rescue Sawyer, Jack and Kate from the Others. But his plan endangers the Korean couple, Jin and Sun, who already face a challenging question: Since Jin was believed to be infertile, is he really the father of the child Sun is carrying?

• The Dead Guy: Killed in spectacular fashion while trying to make a radio transmission near the end of the first season, Boone Carlyle (Ian Somerhalder) returns as flashbacks in the mind of John Locke (Terry O'Quinn). ABC lists Somerhalder in the cast for the Oct. 18 episode, "Further Instructions."

• The New People: Kiele Sanchez plays Nikki, who becomes the love interest of another new character played by Brazilian actor Rodrigo Santoro. Elizabeth Mitchell (Dr. Weaver's first lover on "ER") also joins the crew

Hey, do me a favor and dno't post spoilers about who or who won't be around this season.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

It really isn't spoiler. Dude took his son on the boat and bolted. Everything else is just a guess.

[MannyIsGod]

ah, ok. I didn't read it out of spoiler fear.

I hate spoilers. Hate!

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

Is this pizza delivery guy type hate?

[MannyIsGod]

Worse

[Vizzini]

Sorry, I didn't even think about the spoiler factor before I posted it, Iwas just curious as to which other regular is the fourth member on tonight's premiere.

[LuvBones]

Ehh it's not even really a spoiler...

Yes! Lost comes on at 8 right after America's Next Top Model ( lol yes I watch that show). http://spurstalk.com/forums/images/smilies/smiembarassed.gif

[Extra Stout]

I believe the Others think they are the good guys because they believe their work will save the world or something.

[LuvBones]

I still don't understand why the others say the only reason the Losties live on the island is because they let them, and yet they killed so many. wtf?

[katyon6th]

So do I, I love that crap.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

I think there is a town on the island where the Others live. Housing, buildings, etc.

They may even have their own basketball team.

Just a thought.

[LuvBones]

So do I, I love that crap.I can't stand that Monique girl, right?! lol "Princess of the Throne" my ass...

I'd say it would be more of an all-inclusive complex than an out and out town, and they have an intramural sports league where they play each other in basketball, jai alai, table tennis, beer pong, and bocce ball.

[katyon6th]

And they have a Four Seasons!

[katyon6th]

GIG, he doesn't like when you call him that. Please stop.

Thank you.

[TheTruth]

You guys think there will be an all out war between the losties and the "others"?

[katyon6th]

I don't care.

You told me it hurt your feelings. Liar.

[tlongII]

You told me it hurt your feelings. Liar.

Being called a liar hurts his feelings more.

[MannyIsGod]

Man, whats up with Desmonds wife/gf? Is Hanso behind the others or are they against Hanso?

And where did all the Christian refrences go? They were all oer the place in season one.

I don't think there will be a war with the others. I think they'll team up.

[Dre_7]

Here is a interesting question. So Desmond activated the failsafe, right? Therefore the islands magnetic field is no more, correct? And since the island has healing powers, does the lack of a strong magnetic field mean the island's healing powers are no more? And if so, does that mean Locke is no longer able to walk anymore??

I like Locke. He is one of my favorite characters. It will be interesting to see what becomes of him this season.

[Vizzini]

well, there were a few answers and a ton more questions. I really liked this episode, it gives you a really good glimpse into Jack's psyche. I won't go into spoiling mode, but will say I was wrong about before.

[scott]

Juliet is hot as hell.

[Vizzini]

Juliet is hot as hell.


Yes. Yes she is.

[TheTruth]

Jack is the reason his dad started drinking again. Which ultimately led to his death. Sucks the be Jack.

[katyon6th]

Didnt someone say Ben earlier in the episode? Apparently that is Henry Gale's real name. I thought the first 3 minutes was insane. The rest sucked.

Yes and he's evil. He's an evil little man.

I thought the entire episode was good. More questions, of course, but that's Lost for you. Is Juliett new to the show? I swear I've seen her before. Anyone else seen her on the show before? She looks like Desmond's girlfriend, but isn't Desmond's girlfriend European?

And Sawyer gave Kate his fish biscuit!

[Ginofan]

I liked the episode. I thought there was way too many commercials, but Matthew assured me that it was the same length as any other episode, blah!

I didn't like how "Ben"/FakeHenryGale wanted to dress Kate up and feed her when he didn't do squat for Jack or Sawyer. It seemed like he wanted to play with her mind more than make her "feel like a lady" And who was that kid that tried to help Sawyer escape? Was he from their plane crash or a different one?

More and more questions!

[Spurminator]

Juliet is hot as hell.


Rent "Gia".

[j-6]

She's from Dallas.

[MannyIsGod]

I thought this episode was meh. They had months to work on it, give me something with more substance than that. Some decent info, but I wasn't too pleased.

Next weeks episode looks better, though.

[King]

That kid who tried to help Sawyer escape was the same kid fixing something under the house in the first scene of the episode. Anyone else catch that?

No it wasn't. The guy fixing the plumbing under the house was Ethan - the guy who was sent off by Henry/Ben to 'infiltrate' the front section - and killed in the first season.

[katyon6th]

No it wasn't. The guy fixing the plumbing under the house was Ethan - the guy who was sent off by Henry/Ben to 'infiltrate' the front section - and killed in the first season.

that blows

tonight should be good though

[katyon6th]

That episode kicked ass. Manny, if you say otherwise, I'll be forced to punch you in the face.

Ben Lioness? He's been on the island all his life? Who the fuck is he? What the fuck are those people? Sun totally shot that bitch and it was awesome!

[MannyIsGod]

Meh. I'm not digging this season so far.

[LuvBones]

Sawyer and Kate are so cute! :spin

[King]

I don't get what people are looking for in this season. It's the same as it's always been. it sort of answers earlier questions, and introduces a whole lot more. It hasn't changed the formula at all. Maybe it has to do with people watching season one and/or two all in a row, and getting their 'answer' as soon as they want it - while the rest of us have waited a week from the beginning.

I just don't know what you're waiting for. If you're not liking the show, why watch it?

Not personally at all. It just seems like people are annoyed with the show because it isn't something that it's never been in the first place. It's never revealed a lot. It's always left more questions than answers.

It's done it since episode 1.

[MannyIsGod]

It's done it since episode 1.I think the answer to why people get annoyed is right there. It has never revealed a lot. For awhile, that is great, but as time goes on I feel people expect there to be answers as well as new questions. Lost rarely gives you much resolution and at some point that gets old.

If you listen to fans of Alias, the exact same thing happened with that show.

It is still an entertaining show, without a doubt. But I am annoyed that there are still very answers. It does seem as though the "monster/smoke/security system" will return next week. Perhaps while get some answers there. I'm not holding my breath though.

[Vizzini]

I just got done watching the episode, (recorded it and watched the Tigers kick ass tonight) and the closed captioning has his name at Benjamin Linus. I screamed a "hell yeah!" when Sun shot that bitch. I'm afraid we won't find out what is going to happen to Jack, Kate and Sawyer until November when it will be just before they take their "hiatus". I wonder how Ben is going to deal with having to deal with the death of that bitch.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

I find myself watching it now just because it looks phenomenal in HD. The story moves at a pace reminiscent of War and Peace....

[CharlieMac]

This is kind of like Prisonbreak for me. It can be really annoying when nothing gets resolved week after week, but it's for the best I guess. I don't want those shows to end.

[brian3]

i wish it would give us more info on the others though, but i guess they are trying to make this series last.

[j-6]

New episode in a couple of hours. What are your thoughts on the season so far? I'm about at the point where Lost goes from 'must-see TV' to 'Tivo until the weekend', but it and Weeds are the only two shows I watch religiously right now.

I'll tune in tonight regardless of my level of frustration. The previews make it look like this show's about Locke.

You're exactly right, Manny. I LOVED Alias the first 2 or 3 seasons. But eventually you get tired of having to try to figure out new secrets and answer new questions, without fully learning/understandin all the old secrets and questions. Very frustrating. Same thing is happening to me with Lost. I was addicted the first two seasons...this season, not so much.

BTW, I'm probably the last person to realize this but I just saw him interviewed on Access Hollywood and he said he was off the island for good!

[LuvBones]

Locke has always been my favorite character. He's the most intriguing. :)

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

So they hatch implodes, the whole island shakes and yet everyone in their camp acts as if they are on vacation, not even bothering to ask one simple question? I think after that type of explosion, a "WTF? Seriously, WTF?" is in order.

This show is starting to irritate me.

[LuvBones]

Desmond can see into the future now?

[Ginofan]

I thought last night's episode was great! I dig Locke stories.

When Locke and Charlie were in the jungle running from the polar bear and Locke turns around to throw the knife and ends up stabbing Hurley's book, that was pretty awesome, I loved when he said "dude..." ahaha.

Gig, that looked like a pretty bad ass polar bear, I don't think anyone would want to fuck with it even Eko. Even though Eko is Mr. Badass himself, he was still so fucked up from the blast that I'm sure even Claire could drag him off.

Next week's episode looks awesome. It looks like they are going to torture Sawyer and mess with Kate's head a little bit. I just want to know when the hell are Sayid, Jin & Sun going to rescue them so they can put together an army to take on the Others?!

[katyon6th]

I haven't seen last night's episode yet and here I am reading about it.

I just can't help myself.

[Spurminator]

I liked Locke better when he was mysterious and infalliable.

[1Parker1]

BTW, next weeks previews look awesome!!!! :wow

[MannyIsGod]

Best episode of the season last night. I pickedup on what GiG did, when the last shot was over I immediatly corrolated Jesus and Desmond. I don't know if it was intentional or not, however.

[brian3]

i agree, desmond did look a lot like Jesus in that last shot, but i think tonight we are going to learn something very important about the show.....cant wait!

[jman3000]

does the desmond/jesus thing play into the fact that he saved the island (world?) by shutting down the electro magnetic thingy? my friend tivo's it and i watch it on thursdays... i would hope for once that at least 1 plot or story device would be concluded.

[1369]

According To EW: Locke=Luke Skywalker (http://www.ew.com/ew/article/commentary/0,6115,1550210_3_0_,00.html)

[1Parker1]

WTF....now they have professional XRAY machines on this island?? :rolleyes

[King]

WTF....now they have professional XRAY machines on this island?? :rolleyes

That's the part of the show that's not plausible to you?

[Spurfect]

I totally loved LOST tonight...

alot of Sawyer/Kate
introduced the new hot guy (the one playing golf)
and of course.... DESMOND!!!!!!!!! (love him!)
:D :D :D

oh and the best line of the night went to Sawyer:

"What the hell am I gonna write? Dear gah gah goo goo? She's a baby!" had me cracking up :lol :lol

[King]

Plus, we found out what the others wanted with Jack.

[Burn531]

^^^The Island, remember the first episode of this season and how big the island is? It would probably take days or a couple weeks to walk around it.

Next week looks awesome. That guy with the eye patch and it looks like Eko almost gets stabbed.

[brian3]

wow the new episode was sweet! but how did they not know there was another island before jack, sawyer, and all them got captured? how could they not see the other island? and the preview for next week! the head other has a tumor in his spine and is gonna die if jack doesnt operate on him.... could be some trust issues there.....cant wait until next wednesday!

[1Parker1]

That's the part of the show that's not plausible to you?

:lol Nooooo, I just find it funny that they somehow managed to "build this little hospital" on the island...they even had a freakin heart rate monitor!

Great episode though...can't wait for next weeks, it looks even better. The whole thing with the Sawyer and the pacemaker was awesome...I was cracking up when Kate was changing her clothes and his little watch started beeping like crazy and he's yelling at her to hurry it up and she was like..."Wtf is your problem?" :lol

[DirkAB]

:lol Nooooo, I just find it funny that they somehow managed to "build this little hospital" on the island...they even had a freakin heart rate monitor!


I don't get the big deal about that stuff, obviously all the "others" haven't been stranded there or anything like that. Obviously they have had contact with the outside world or even been in the outside world recently. Desmond's ex girlfriend obviously was just out in the real world not that long ago, they made that perfectly clear in the finale. The plot is no longer giving the impression that these people have been isolated or completely cut off from the outside world.

[Ginofan]

Three words for tonight's episode....


WHAT
THE
FUCK?!

:flipoff :bang :cuss

[LuvBones]

Next week is the season finale?!?! When will it return??! :depressed

[DirkAB]

I was wondering when the black smoke would return, I started to think that they would never bring it back. I can't wait to find out eye-patch guy's deal is. One thing that bugs me is how they are starting to bring new characters into the fold that were on the plane.

[Burn531]

The eye patch guy might be "Radzinski". That's a theory I've read on some Lost sites earlier today.

If you remember in the Season 2 finale during Desmond's flashback Kelvin said Radzinski killed himself in the hatch.

So who knows with this show.

Also what do people think about Eko's last words? I think he said "you're next" or something like that. Does he mean Locke or the entire plane crash survivors?

[Burn531]

Next week is the season finale?!?! When will it return??! :depressed

Feb. 7th is the date I heard on the radio this morning.

[jaffies]

February 7, 2007

Episode 3.07: "Not In Portland"
Juliet's flashback
episodes 7-23 will premiere without repeats in between
same thing for next year

[LuvBones]

That sux.. might as well be the season finale. We have to wait like 3 months now. =/

[MannyIsGod]

Finally watched it. Can't believe they killed Eko. I don't believe he's done. Not after some of the biggest Jesus references EVER. Rolling the giant stone outside of the 'tomb' to find the body gone? HELLO.

It was cool to find out why he was building the church (he 'owed' one) as well as some of the backstory. This was a great great great episode and you finally got some answers along with some plot twists.

I don't like the introduction of new characters. Here's an idea assholes, stop killing them off after I start to like them. Eko can't be done for good, and if he doesn't come back with a major role I'll be super super pissed. He's the coolest motherfucker around!

[MannyIsGod]

Oh yeah, and fuck the hiatus.

[MannyIsGod]

Oh, and if Sawyer dies in the next episode I may swear off Lost for awhile.

[Vizzini]

Eko is dead for good. According to the TV Guide link I will post below, the actor didn't want to be a permanent fixture on the show, and the article kind of paints him like an asshole, so I guess the writers were more than happy to oblige. He is dead for good.

I actually was a little disapointed in this episode, up until the Juliet and Jack video scene, which for me totally saved the episode and offered insight into the "Others" psyche. That scene alone is making me pissed that there is only one more episode left for the next few months.


http://community.tvguide.com/thread.jspa?threadID=700010897

[MannyIsGod]

Well, this was easily the best episode of the year. That really sucks that Eko is dead he really was my favorite character. The Jack scenes were awesome and you did get a ton of insight into the others. Next week should be very very good.

[Spurminator]

I loved seeing the asshole from Hotel Rwanda finally get his comeuppance.

[jman3000]

for some reason i feel it's that chick who is manipulating jack for the worse and not cancer dude. power struggle or something to that tone.

[Spurminator]

for some reason i feel it's that chick who is manipulating jack for the worse and not cancer dude. power struggle or something to that tone.

I'm actually going forward with that assumption.... But I hope I'm wrong because it's such a predictable "twist."

[MannyIsGod]

Should be a kick ass episode.

[j-6]

I watched a scene from tonight's episode here:

http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index

Looks pretty good!

[1Parker1]

DAMN, I missed it cuz of the Spurs game!!! Luckily, you can watch full streamed episodes with limited commercials on abc.com! Can't wait...

[scott]

Turns out... we found out nothing. Bleh.

[1Parker1]

Turns out... we found out nothing. Bleh.

:lol Shocker.

And what's this about no new episode for....3 months?! Why the heck do they have such a weird schedule?

[Burn531]

Disappointing. Now a 3 month break. :smchode:


I wish I could go in the future like Cartman did in tonight's South Park and find out the answers in this show.

[1Parker1]

^I think they said Michael was off the island for good. I recall watching him say in an interview that it was his last episode....

[j-6]

That flashback was a waste of time. Kate's a lying, manipulative con artist with a soft side and a criminal history she's trying to run from? Thanks for reminding us in case anyone forgot. If they wanted to make this interesting she should having been banging the FBI agent instead of a random Miami cop.

There's a lot I'm frustrated with on this show right now. Desmond seeing the alleged future, no mention. Eko's stick telling Locke to look north, no result. If we wanted an annoying blonde and her sidekick to go tag along with Locke, maybe they should have kept more than one freaking person from the back of the plane alive and used them. I feel they wasted half a season on the tail when only Bernard's around anymore.

Luckily there was a basketball game on at the same time last night that I had just a little interest in. Also, the "Taye Diggs' Groundhog Day in a Chevy Avalanche" show that I guess is replacing Lost for the next few weeks has about zero appeal to me.

[Extra Stout]

The writing on that show is so tied up in knots it's squeezing the life out of it.

I'm quickly losing interest.

[MannyIsGod]

Anyone catch the mention of Jacob's list? WTF is that. The bright side is that they finally seem to be moving. I have hope for the future episodes to be better.

[scott]

Only 2.5 more weeks....

[jaffies]

I'M READY!

It's now time for Lost to return to its initial brilliance!

here's a clip from the CES show that you might have heard of. (no it's not a spoiler!) ------> final episode (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1_EFOWjuGk)

[scott]

So I just got my family hooked on LOST. I was watching some season 2 episodes when I started connecting a lot of things to season 3. So the tail section people found a glass eyeball along with the Bible that contained the missing footage from the Dharma video. Do you guys think the glass eyeball is from the eyepatch dude? That is pretty crazy. I thought I was the first person to realize that. However I just typed in "glass eyeball LOST" into google and it seems as if hundreds before me figured that out.

That's crazy... who would have ever thought to connect a FAKE EYEBALL and an EYE PATCH?

[Mr. Peabody]

The writing on that show is so tied up in knots it's squeezing the life out of it.

I'm quickly losing interest.

I agree. There is a blog called "Lost Mysteries" where they keep track of all of the unanswered questions/unresolved issues on the show and there are hundreds of them. There's no way the show wraps everything up by the time it runs its course. This is especially true for the storylines dealing with characters like Walt. They alluded to some specials powers that he had, but never addressed the issue and now, the character is no longer on the show.

[Ginofan]

I was just happy to have it back.

Saw the Juliet backstabbing Jack from a mile away though. Ben being able to talk while all sliced open like that was a bit unbelievable...but what can you do.

That room where that kid was being tortured was some effed up stuff, seriously!

How do you think Jack is going to escape and do you think he'll actually save Ben after all that has happened?

[LuvBones]

He should not have saved Ben.

[Spurfect]

i was like this :spless: on the bus part

[Ginofan]

Also why was Juliet trying to get her sister pregnant? I dont get it. She seemed like she had cancer.

I'm not sure she was trying to get her pregnant because she would have to have a sperm donor for that, and that stuff looked like some kind of medicinal liquid. But if she WAS trying to get her sister pregnant, maybe because she knows she won't be around much longer and she wants a piece of herself to live on or some sentimental crap like that? :wtf

[Melmart1]

Chemo often makes people sterile, perhaps she was trying to reverse the effects of sterility due to chemo so cancer survivors or those who are reproductively challenged have a shot? That's the only thing I could think of while I was watching last night...

Imagine the money in finding a cure for infertility!?

[Extra Stout]

Spoiler below:

There is a third island.

I don't know if it's just infertility because Juliet also did work that led to an impregnated male mouse.

[Vizzini]

It was an all right episode, that dude getting peeled by a bus was awesome, and eveyone should've seen the bus in the back ground when that sceen started.

Question: That Aldo dude looked a lot like the cop that Locke picked up and brought back to that weed farm. Was it him? I looked a little online, but could not get a definitive answer.

[Extra Stout]

how do u know?
I just do.

[Burn531]

This is a pretty good read from EW.com - http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20011171,00.html After every episode they write up what they think about it.

I thought last night's show was great. I had forgotten how much I liked it since the last time it was on. Ben is Alex's daughter which means the french chick didn't kill everyone she came to the island with.

Wait.. Ben is Alex's father? :lol

And what does that have to do with the french woman again.. I forget...

[Extra Stout]

More clues:

Mittelos is an anagram for "lost time." There is a time anomaly associated with the plot on Lost. Time may not pass at the same rate on the island(s) as off the island(s).

Mittelos also is German for "indigent."

[Burn531]

Wait.. Ben is Alex's father? :lol

And what does that have to do with the french woman again.. I forget...

The French chick had a baby when she crashed on the island 16 years ago with her crew from the boat. The Others then took the baby from her after the birth.

Trent from Pink is the New Blog mentioned that there might be a connection between the shots that Desmond was giving himself to ward off the "disease" that was supposed to be all over the island last season, and the fertility injections?

Maybe Desmond will become pregnant! lol GIG I do watch regularly but there is sooo much stuff going on with that show it's hard to keep up sometimes...

EDIT: plus I don't usually go online and try to find hidden meanings and all that..

[LuvBones]

Yeah, the French woman was like season 1? Anyway, my memory sucks... if it weren't for that Lost guide show before the start of this season I would have been completely lost. :lol

[LuvBones]

I couldn't even remember if Desmond had survived that blast until they showed the recap.. :lol

[MannyIsGod]

I thought the show was OK. The getting hit by a bus and room scenes were pretty fucked up. I'm not as hyped for it now, but I will watch it.

[1Parker1]

Damnit! I had the opposite affect. I skipped a few episodes last season, wasn't that into it. I thought yesterday's episode was pretty damn good and now I'm hooked again! :pctoss

How long do you think there'll wait to kill Charlie? I wouldn't be surprised if they waited it out till the finale.

[Mr. Peabody]

For some reason I don't know why people like this episode so much.

I just liked the twist at the end. After Desmond saved Claire, I was wondering why he had to save her twice already. The final half of the episode explained it with an unexpected twist. Plus, the episode developed the Desmond character who had been somewhat of an enigma.

[MannyIsGod]

I didn't even think about Wonderwall's significance there, but it adds up.

They once again made Desmond look like Jesus when he was on the floor with his arms out which is another linking of him as a "savior".

I agree though, it was a solid episode.

[AFBlue]

Stayed up until 11 (east coast) for that show when I had to be up in 4 hours....well worth it!

[Melmart1]

I had to watch it online just now cus I missed last night due to my nephew's b'day. Gotdamn, what a great episode! I will never quit marveling about the subtle things like the choice of "Wonderwall" as a song... it seems insignificant but if you watch the show, you know better.

[Extra Stout]

Why is Desmond the only one that remembers if they've all done this before?
Apparently activating the fail-safe has something to do with Desmond's Groundhog-Day experience on the island. That would explain why only he has the premonitions.

i love this show

[AFBlue]

I am confused for the first time in this shows history. How was he trying to save Charlie? I don't get it. Also, who the hell was that creepy lady?

He saw Charlie get hit by the lightening in his preminition, and he saw Charlie go in after Claire and drown while attempting to save her...so he set up the lightening rod and he went in to save claire, thus preventing Charlie from entering the water (and drowning).

Not sure if the lady represents anyone..."death" maybe?

[Mr. Peabody]

Well this is at least his third time. What a crazy show this is...

I think it's his fourth. From what I remember, the first time Desmond met Jack, Jack was worried that he hadn't kept his promise to Sarah by fixing her. Desmond implied to Jack that he had kept his promise and the next time Jack saw Sarah, she was moving her toes.

Crazy.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

I'm losing interest in this show. Nothing ever gets resolved, nobody ever gets sick, food is plentiful, the characters rarely interact, etc.

This show is moving at a snail's pace.

[Extra Stout]

I'm losing interest in this show. Nothing ever gets resolved, nobody ever gets sick, food is plentiful, the characters rarely interact, etc.

This show is moving at a snail's pace.
The original plan, I think, was to have the show last 5 seasons total.

But, since it was a hit, of course ABC execs want to stretch it out as long as possible.

So the plot starts to implode and people stop watching.

Once people stop watching, ABC reacts by advancing the plot to try to get people watching again.

Allegedly, the producers and writers met with ABC to demand that they be allowed to wrap up the plot by the end of Season 5.

This happened to Alias too. The show went back and forth, speeding up and slowing down. So many questions went unanswered that the plot imploded. They tried to reinvent the show in more of a serial format. Nothing worked.

The show ended with an all-encompassing, very weak ending that tried and failed to answer all the questions. Lost likely will meet a similar fate. The writers are not given the freedom to do their job, and the executives eventually kill the golden goose.

[Extra Stout]

3 clues they say are revealed next episode, but I am not holding my breath.
Great. There are 1,000 unanswered questions. After next week, they will be down to 997.

[Extra Stout]

Great. There are 1,000 unanswered questions. After next week, they will be down to 997.
No, scratch that. They will raise 30 new questions, so we'll be up to 1,027.

The writers on that show are so full of crap now. They really don't have any idea where they are going, and the answer to every question is, "Well, you'll just have to wait, watch, and see."

And payoffs are so rare, that they actually have to tell viewers when they are going to answer questions. Ooh, whooptey-doo, they're going to answer 3 questions lingering from Season 1! It only took them two years to pull some contrived answer out of their asses!

The show is a fraud.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

I'm still pissed about the Walt thing. Why did he have those powers? What were they exactly? Why did they take him? And then, poof!, he was gone. We had to hear Michael cry about looking for his son in, at least, 10+ shows and then they answer zero questions?

Great plot line.

And why can't they have a decent back story/flashback AND a decent on-island story in the same episode?

During the summer I read an interview with the producers and according to them *****SPOILER!!!******








Michael and Walt come back in the last few episodes of this season

[Spurminator]

I don't care about Walt and Michael. At this point they're no longer a part of the story. Given that the island is fucked up, it's understandable that Michael and Walt would be affected by it somehow... but I don't think it's essential to have a complete story arc for every character. In fact, I think that would get very convoluted.

Imagine if David Lynch tried to answer all the questions raised in some of his films. Would they be as good? Is it as fun to discuss something that answers all of your questions for you? I don't think so.

[Mr. Peabody]

I don't care about Walt and Michael. At this point they're no longer a part of the story. Given that the island is fucked up, it's understandable that Michael and Walt would be affected by it somehow...

Yeah, but Walt had some form of telekinetic powers before they got to the island. And, he was something special because the Others were performing tests on him. I'd like to know the story behind that.

[AFBlue]

So I had to DVR lost this week (22 Feb) because I went to the ATL/SA game, but I watched it last night...

What three questions got answered? Because I'm at a loss for that one...

Also, the fact that Jack's tatoo says "He walks among us but is not one of us", when it was supposed to say "leader of men, lonely, and angry" or whatever...what the hell does that mean?

Also, why does that old chick say "it's ironic" when reading the tatoo? Is it because "he walks among us, but is not one of us" describes the "others".

Funny that the predicition before this week's episode was that it would answer three but raise another 30...seems to have done exactly that for me.

Can anyone help?

[Spurminator]

Yeah I wasn't sure what was answered either... Unless one of the questions was Jack's tattoo, which I never really cared about.

Weak episode.

[Burn531]

Weak episode.

[AFBlue]

Yeah I wasn't sure what was answered either... Unless one of the questions was Jack's tattoo, which I never really cared about.

Here's another thing...

The tattoo that it showed only had the Chinese characters on it, not the large symbol that was placed above the writing....was that just some random "art" or was there more to the story, more to the tatoo?

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

This show is starting to suck. And Bai Ling is damn sexy.

[Burn531]

:hungry: This episode just got me interested again in the show. I don't know why cause we didn't really learn anything new about the old unanswered questions. The ending with Hurley and then the French chick was great.

[AFBlue]

Enjoyed this last episode about Hurley. I know it didn't do much for story development until the end, but it resolved some issues with characters (Hurley, Charlie) and prevented the cheesy love story from happening w/ Kate & Sawyer. Good episode....

[AFBlue]

BTW.....Cheech looks old as balls.

[dg7md]

Anything happen the first 10 minutes of the episode?

Nothing really major, just a few scenes with Charlie/Hurley/Vincent finding the car keys, and before that, the began with a young/thin Hurley talking to his dad before he leaves him for I believe was 17 years, promising a roadtrip to the Grand Canyon and giving Hurley a candy bar before he went off.

[DirkAB]

Worst episode of Lost ever, what a waste of time. I'm really beginning to lose faith in the show.

I don't think that they really knew where they wanted to take the show after last years great season, either that or they knew exactly where they want to take it and that is into eternity like the X-Files.

They continue to create far more questions than they answer, and they are writing themselves in circles. Continuing to introduce more characters 3 seasons into it while they haven't given answers about the existing characters. If they insist on introducing new characters this late into it, at least spend the episodes giving the back story on them instead of additional pointless back story on the main characters that we already know about. Like Jack and Hurley the last 2 weeks.

Did they feel that they had an episode to waste on Hurley? It had nothing at all to do with the plot, and it was completely cheesy. They revealed more plot in the preview to next weeks episode than they did in this weeks episode in its entirety.

I'll give this episode one thing, there were some good one-liners. After that, mehhh...

At least we learned what Jack's Party of Five tattoo meant and that Hugo wasn't born fat in the last two weeks.

It hasn't been flushed yet, but it is certainly circling the bowl.

Good episode tonight from start to finish. Still not sure whats up with the eye patch guy?

[Burn531]

I'm just enjoying this show as a viewer now. I try not to get into all the crazy twist that they throw at you. I want answers to a lot of questions but I know there'll come sooner or later. I have patience.

[AFBlue]

I have yet to watch the episode yet, but will weigh in later on tonight (DVR). I fucking hate living in the Eastern Time Zone! I have to get up for work at "0 dark 30", get off at 6:00 and I'm tired as shit. I go to bed at 10 to keep from falling asleep at work the next day and miss out on all the cool shows.

Thank God for DVR!

[AFBlue]

Agree with other posters, it was a good episode. My thoughts....

How did Locke become the mistake-prone dumbass all of the sudden? Who leaves a tied up "other" to go play a game of chess and then gets the station with the satellite blown up? Totally out of character for him....

I wanna know what the hell the black lady and the russian said to eachother. I can only guess, but I'd say she told him "they've figured out that you won't kill them, you have to kill me and yourself so they don't find out more about us".

I like how the back-story tied into his final decision to let the russian live.

I didn't like how the station got blown up, because it could have clearly answered several more questions (like why/how the food drops occur, etc.).

It's crazy how the Dharma Initiative knew about the hostiles.

I'm sure I'll think of a bunch more shit, but that's the stuff off the top of my head....

Whoa Jack and Claire are brother and sister! There is definantly something going on with Locke, guess we will find out next week. Plus What about Jack playing some ball with the others, that was pretty crazy. Another good episode this week.

[Vizzini]

another good episode tonight. I kinda heard about Jack and Claire berforehand, so I wasn't suprised. I like the direction of Locke's character recently. If I had to guess as to where this is all going, I would say he wants vengenance for how he was fooled by Ben in the hatch.

BTW, Claire was smokin' hot in this episode. :smokin Every time she is featured, her looks and accent just blow me away. I really got to get to Australia.

[jaffies]

Seriously...
Who was waiting for Jack to bust out a sharpie at the end?
I know I was.

[shyne]

Jack prolly likes it there cause he gets to nail juliet every night.

[DirkAB]

Jack is playing along with the others to gain their trust, so him and Juliet can try and escape and get off the island.

I'm very curious who the Russian was referring to when he spoke of the great and brilliant man that brought them there, who wasn't Ben, and what is up with the list.

This show will never answer all the questions it has created, I can only hope it will answer to major ones. I have a feeling that the writers are somewhat winging it at this point, they still just making up all these little plot twists as they go. I think I might be very disappointed when it is all said and done.

[Burn531]

I thought the episode was great. Charlie's still gonna die and Claire and Jack are siblings. At least we are finding out new things. They just gotta keep it up these next few weeks.

I know Cooper is the real "Sawyer" when James sees that bitch hes gonna cap him!
Who is this Cooper?

This episode was awesome. LOST finally impressed me. If the only way they move from the island to the mainland is using the sub, they are fucked right now. Also, why is the island hidden? If a plane crashed on it, it is visible to a plane flying overhead. I am also curious about the season finale of season 2. I wonder when they are going to tie Desmond's ex into it. And how the hell did they get Locke's dad on the island!? This show is insane. Too many ?'s.

[shyne]

Cooper is Lockes Dad.

[Burn531]

Best Episode of the Season, no contest!

[AFBlue]

Total mindfuck with that ending last night. The good, or frustrating (I can't decide which), thing about Lost is that it lulls you into thinking about the "human" side of the island with the communication towers, submarine, community, etc...BUT, then it throws you for a loop with the black smoke, the random appearing things, the references to "him", and now this "box in the middle of the island" that things come out of....and what came out was Locke's dad?

Here's what I can't figure about that...

Locke has a connection with the island, so it's very likely that he "made" his dad appear...but then if he blew up the Sub to get away from his father, why would he want him on the island?

This goes back to the Purgatory theory in that...the Island is making Locke confront his demons, his unresolved matter so that he can't continue to run away.

Either way....it was a crazy good ending and I want to see what next week brings (hopefully not some storyline from the other side of the island).

BTW, about last week...I knew Claire was Jack's sister from the Episode when Analucia went with Jack's dad to that house in Australia where he got into a shouting match with that blonde woman about wanting to see his daughter...

[Vizzini]

great episode. I was thinking that Locke's dad was somehow going to be on the island, it just seems like something Lost would do. I liked Locke in this episode, he's better when he's got a dark side to him (kinda like Charlie last season). I can't wait to find out why no can get back to the island once they leave it, it's a big frickin' island, that should be interesting.

It seems like Kate and Sayid are going to need Rousseau to save them, cause I can't see Ben just letting them go on their merry way after what they've seen. Question: Who exactly is the "Man from Tallahasse"? It seem logical that it is Locke's dad, but I think it might be that dark haired dude that recruited Juliet back in early February.

When are they going to give us a little more about the sub-station in that arctic region they showed us in the finale last season?

And I'm still confused as to who answered the phone call at the very end of the season 2 finale, the call from the arctic sub-station having to do with the anomaly, Juliette or Desmond's ex.

I think the call consisted of "We've found it," or something like that. I was thinking that Desmond's ex was on the island until that episode this season where he went back.

[AFBlue]

I'm pretty sure the "man from talahassee" was John's dad, because Ben instructed that dude to bring him out and after the Sub scene there he was.

Lockes Dad is the man who killed Sawyer's mother. He is the real Sawyer, remember Sawyer's back story? James Ford Aka the fake sawyer had been looking for the real sawyer and he killed the wrong guy. This is an interesting twist in the story as well.

Everyone is saying that the last 2 episodes were great, and thats not the case at all. Don't get me wrong, they were OK episodes, but what has happend is that after so many medicore and bad episodes everyone is salivating at these slightly above average episodes and calling them great.

Nothing I've seen this season compares to season one (the best season) and probably not even last years less than stellar season. Meh, its moving now so I'm mildly intersted, but its not the way it used to be. Lost has lost a lot of luster.

mannyisgod, heroes>>>>>>>>>>>lost?

[shyne]

Tonight's show was badass, there starting to get better every week. This season has been good.

[AFBlue]

HORRIBLE! WTF, does that have to do with anything? Get back to the other side of the island!

[Josh810]

This seemed like it would have been better if it was aired last week. It didn't pick up from last week's cliffhanger at all, which is frustrating. I still did like the story, and the ending was pretty crazy. At least they'll get back to the main point next week. Plus, a Kate vs. Juliet catfight. :spin

[DON VITO]

Yeah this was crap. This story doesnt affect shit on the island. Get back to the submarine shit.

[jaespur21]

I saw last weeks episode right b4 tonights and it was disapointing that tonights episode had nothing to do with what was going on with the other side of the island

[Burn531]

I feel like an idiot. I just realized that during Nikki and Paulo's flashbacks they were always placing the camera's on there faces. I hadn't thought that if they were really dead they wouldn't have FB's for them.

Overall I thought it was a decent episode. If you remember from the last 2 seasons they've done this before were they end an ep. with a cliffhanger and then the next ep. had nothing to do with the previous ep.

Kinda creepy with 2 people being buried alive on the island. One thing I thought of though, even if Nikki and Paulo couldn't move from the spider bite wouldn't they be breathing? Hurley and Sawyer just presumed them dead it seemed.

And wouldn't those paralyzing spiders have hung around by the time Sawyer, Hurley, and Charlie got to the scene? Why weren't they bitten.

Overall, I'm just glad I didn't have nightmares last night about being buried alive and not being able to do a damn thing about it....creepy.

how do people watch this show? ....complete garbage.

Excellent contribution!

I thought the episode last night was fairly weak, sans the cool flashbacks that do the old 'what all happened on the side while we were watching a major scene'. I loved seeing Boone and Shannon again though.

[Extra Stout]

What on Earth was the point of introducing those two characters? What purpose did they serve? Totally extraneous. Terrible writing.

[MannyIsGod]

mannyisgod, heroes>>>>>>>>>>>lost?Oh its not even closes man. Heroes is WAY better. Last night's episode was a waste of my DVR's HD space.

I actually thought the "late revalations" about them discovering the hatch first, the plane first, seeing the others talk about Jack etc., was their weakass attempt at making this episode relevant. The problem is that we didn't learn anything new from these backstories, except that these two completely pointless characters were exposed to everything mysterious first....which changes nothing.

I have to admit I was excited about them killing someone off when I thought it could be one of the main cast members, but that's a horrible cop-out to kill off someone that had never even been featured in an episode, and was barely even noticeable as an extra on the show.

I reiterate...it was pointless and then disturbing at the end.

[jman3000]

You could kinda tell that the only reason that they introduced those 2 characters a while back when they visited the pearl station was to kill them off... you could see it coming a mile away.



look for Charley to die soon.

[Spurminator]

So were they working with the others or not?

[Burn531]

So were they working with the others or not?

From what I understand they were not. Paulo just took the walkie talkie from the Peral station just to have it in case of an emergency.

[Spurminator]

Ah, okay I forgot about that. Thought that might be an unanswered question leaving the door open for them to dig themselves out... Good riddance.

Although Nikki was kinda hot.

[Burn531]

Best part of the episode was the beginning at the club. :clap

[scott]

The same way we manage to read your posts.

[scott]

Anyway... highly entertaining show. It didn't have anything to do with... well, anything - but it was a good "in and of itself" show. I liked it.

[tah]

it was a good episode tonight. it actually had the plot going somewhere (for lost). what is that monster thing? oh and it was funny watching sawyer be nice for once.

[Josh810]

That was freakin awesome.

[tah]

haha, yeah it was. i thought it was weird how the monster would be really bright at night, but dark in the daytime.

[Burn531]

Let the criticism begin.....

[shyne]

Good show, Jack seemed to make up his mind on who he wants to bang, where did the others go, whats up with the smoke monster? Next weeks episode looks good too,

[Spurfect]

I guess I'll be the one to bump this up this time :)
did you guys watch tonight's episode and what did you think? I thought it was a very good episode, lots of questions answered... and WOW about the ending!!! I don't know whether I'm mad or just confused or what.... gahhh!!!
but it was nice to see Jack & crew reuniting with the rest :tu
