TV: Lost

[Master Cephus]

Does anyone else watch this show?

I don't get to watch TV because of school, but I make sure to catch this show every week... This show has the framework to be the best show on TV (if it isn't already...)

[P-Ray]

I haven't missed an episode. It's awesome. I know a ton of people from work, etc. that also watch it. My wife and I love it!

[Spacehunter24]

I hadn't planned to watch it, but wound up catching the first episode while waiting for the premiere of CSI: NEW YORK. I liked it more than I expected to, and so far I've liked it enough to keep watching. But I'm skeptical--as I had been before the show even premiered--of its potential as an on-going series. Another show tried the same concept several seasons ago, and it didn't even last beyond the first season. Of course, LOST has already been picked up for a full first season, but it remains to be seen how long the show can keep it up, now matter how many twists and turns the storyline takes, before it starts getting boring and repetitive with keeping the show basically in one setting. And they'd better show what the "creature" in the jungle is by season's end, because I don't like being teased for very long.

Not my favorite show on TV right now, but since I've watched every episode so far, I'm liking it enough to give it a chance.

[Master Cephus]

I think it is a great show!

I really can't wait to find out what is going on..

Anyone else notice that the casket was empty? And then he didn't say anything or really looked confused by that afterwards....that would be enough for me to start thinking about swimming!

[Blizzard]

It is going to be an awesome season. I read the spoilers on it in this week's TV Guide mag. There are awesome guesses about why they are all on the island. I love the theory that they are all stuck in purgatory. And the other theory that all their lives have crossed paths before somehow. I could care less about the monster, that makes it too much like "Jurassic Park: Lost World."

And I absolutely love that everyone looks like normal people and not Hollywood actors.

[DblDwn]

Evangeline Lilly, the actress who plays Kate, is the Hottest Girl on Television.

The show itself is great. One of the best of the new season in my opinion.

[jadeskywalker]

I love it. I have been taping them even if I do watch them. I can't wait for tonight's series. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

[JediJaina]

I love the show so far, but have not cared for the theories thrown out there.

[Blizzard]

Jade, you got me all excited thinking it was on tonight. It's on tomorrow night. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif

[Sabrina Fried]

I've watched snippits of a few episodes so far, seems like a good show, which likely means the networks will cancel it in favour of some reality TV crap.

Fortunately, the show has been in the top ten in the Nielsen ratings ever since it started. It's getting a full season. The funny irony is that the show after it is a reality show and the ratings for that are going down (The Bachelor).

[Blizzard]

I knew she could speak English from reading the spoilers, yet I was lmao when she did.

Great show tonight!

[Spacehunter24]

Good episode tonight, until the end. Could have done without the SURVIVOR-like setup. The fact she spoke English was no shock to me. I expected it from the beginning to be a "surprise" later on. I hope Charlie dies by season's end, though. He's the only character I really don't like.

[Blizzard]

Awww, but Charlie's so cute!! style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif

[Spacehunter24]

With all that scruffy facial hair? style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

I must say, I've been really impressed by Matthew Fox. Though I never watched PARTY OF FIVE regularly, from what I did see, I remember it being a really sappy, overdramatic show, so I wasn't too sure when I heard Fox would be playing the "hero" on LOST. But I've been surprised at how convincing he is. Nice job.

[P-Ray]

Excellent episode!

[JediJaina]

I like Charlie!

It's that one blonde snobby brat I don't care for. I can't remember her name and it's not the pregnant one.

[JediJaina]

OMG! style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif

[bluemilk]

I really like this show style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.gif I have a few episodes on tape I haven't found time to watch yet, sadly.

I agree with Sabrina, anything is better than reality tv. Y'know what's sad? That good actors/actresses that used to carry their own shows are left to take scrap parts and guest appearances. With so many reality shows there isn't enough slots available for creative, fictional shows. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/crying.gif

[JediJaina]

There won't be any new episodes until January. This past episode nearly made me have a heart attack!

[P-Ray]

There are just so many unanswered questions. The time lapse for the show is so slow that they could take a long time to answer them if they wanted.

[BobPalpatine]

I just can't get enough of this show.

Last night's episode freaked me out. I thought for a second that a character had been killed off. I was like "No it is too soon for one of my favorite characters to die."

[JediJaina]

I've got some not so good news. I read on TV Tome that the show won't have new episodes until February. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif

[BobPalpatine]

I was at a hotel party last week and we had the tv on in the hotel. We were watching Blind Date and up pops this commercial about local singles waiting on this phone line. Well the girl who was saying that she was on the phones right now waiting to meet a guy in her area was Evangeline Lilly. It was great. It must've been shot before she got the role on Lost. Must have needed the money or something.

[JediJaina]

Yeah I saw that and read about that. Lost is her first big role. If you look at imdb, she doesn't have much of a resume.

[Kapit]

well, i've begun watching this over break cause my parents watched it, and i'm finding myself to enjoy it

can anyone fill me in on what happened between last weeks episode and the rerun they showed the week before?

[Master Cephus]

Tvtome (http://www.tvtome.com)

That's a good place that gives the synopsis of all the episodes.

[Kapit]

thanks, i'll be off reading for a few minutes

[Brian]

I'll go ahead and add my uninteresting post.

Love the show. My 3rd favorite on TV now...behind 24 and Alias.

[P-Ray]

Good Episode, As usual!

[Kapit]

yeah, that really interesting, i actually though boone's dream was real, and i was ready to come over here and ask if anyone saw the holes in shannon

anywho, i'm liking this show, though the polar bear stumps me

[Blizzard]

The polar bear stumps everyone.

His SISTER!!! Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww

[Kapit]

yeah, that was kinda weird

kinda

weird

i'm not quite sure, but was shannon hurting herself to get boone to come "rescue" her?

money? i thought the boyfriends all got the money......or did you mean the mom's money from the company

[JediJaina]

I meant that it seems that Shannon schemes to get the money (that she feels is owed to her by her stepmother) by using her boyfriends and then having Boone "rescue" her.

Actually we weren't surprised about the stepbrother/stepsister considering how he looks at her. My boyfriend pretty much was dead on about it from a while back. Darn him! style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

We really don't know how long their parents were married. It could have been anywhere from years to months.

[Kapit]

i thought boone mentioned at some point himself being 10 and shannon being 8

[BobPalpatine]

Yea it was a little creepy, but I mean if they aren't blood relation. Its still creepy but yea. I don't know.

I'm buying the Lost poster of Jack I think to put up in my room. There is one of Charlie and Kate, but for some reason I think the Jack poster looks the best.

[Master Cephus]

Interesting show last night.

The whole Boone imagining things really really weird...but if that is the case, I have to ask if in the first episode, was there really a Captain that got killed by the beast?

Also, anyone have any guesses as to what is in the Hatch that Locke and Boone found?

[DblDwn]

Does anyone think that there is a significant reason that, while Boone was talking to the cop in Sydney, that they showed Sawyer being escorted by a cop, kicking and complaining, behind him? Will that play into something later on or was Sawyer thrown in simply as an Easter Egg?

[Kapit]

as to the hatch, i don't think it's from the plane that crashed (i hope that's kinda obvious), so my idea is that it's from whatever plane the french woman used to get to the island in the first place. what's under there, i have no idea, perhaps more live people from another time? maybe nothing

as to sawyer, his kicking and such in the police office, maybe he did something wrong in australia, and had to be deported? i don't remember if his story took place in australia or not

[JediJaina]

Yep that little tidbit showing Sawyer is of importance and will be explained in an episode set to air in February.

[DblDwn]

OK.........I'll bite..............You know that how?

My guess is she reads spoilers.

[DblDwn]

Good guess

[Brian]

Y'all know that song that Charlie was supposed to sing the chorus to with his band? Well, it was playing in the background at a party Sydney was having in the 'Alias' episode that came on last week. How is THAT for an Easter Egg?

I'm finally caught up on 'Lost'. It's the best new show of the season, by far. With 46 different people on that island, they shouldn't run out of story ideas for a long time.

And Kate is hot.

And so is Claire (when she was on 'Roswell', that is...)

[Master Cephus]

To me, not much of a eye opener.

It had some neat things about it, but we didn't really find anything out...

I will post tomorrow to make sure everyone has a chance to see the episode before I talk about it...

[BobPalpatine]

Could anybody tell if she was pregnant or not still?

[P-Ray]

<div align="right">Quoted post</div>

My wife and I both thought that she wasn't pregnant anymore when she came out at the end.

[Master Cephus]

I don't think she was pregnant. I bet the people that kidnapped her only wanted her baby. Once she had the baby, either she escaped (which wouldn't seem likely), or they let her go.

Weird again how Walt was looking at the comic with the polar bear and then one appears again. His step father said that things happen when Walt is around and we all seen the bird in the flashback.

There are 2 weeks of probably reruns, then on Feb. 9 the episode "Outlaws" comes on that is a Sawyer-centric story, so I bet we find out why Sawyer was in the police station in Sydney...

[Blizzard]

I couldn't tell, but my guess is she wasn't. And since she didn't want the baby I bet she won't be too upset about someone else having it.

I can't wait for Hurley's story.

Did it say next week was a rerun? Yeesh, again?!

[Master Cephus]

I think she wants the baby, but she realizes that she is probably not the best person to raise the child...that is why the guy tricked her into going on the plane.

[Blizzard]

She never wanted the baby, but the guy told her if she didn't raise it that it would be evil. If she tries to get it back, it's only because of what the man told her. Or if Charlie declares his love for her and wants the baby.

And it's cool how Walt can conjour up anything he sees. Someone needs to give him a book on ships.

[Master Cephus]

My friend and I were talking about this show and he has a pretty wild idea, but it might make sense...

somehow the survivors have actually been transported to another planet...and the inhabitants of that planet were curious and ran experiments. So, they took this plane..."crashed" it. And now the inhabitants of that planet are running expriments on them..to see what they are capable of. And the only point of reference they had/have was books and that comic book so they thinks that it possible how their world would be in order to simulate it


i mean..how else would loc all the sudden be able to walk, if the whole thing wasnt real

and the "survivors" have just scratches on them after the crash that they all should have died from

[Blizzard]

What do you think about the theory that they are in purgatory. That Ethan Rom is the devil and he wanted Claire's child as his own?

I don't think you would find "dead" bodies in purgatory. Just my thought. I think it's something else.


EDITED: That and one of the actors says he doesn't believe it's going to go that way.

[Master Cephus]

Another idea I had is what if the whole thing is going on inside Walt's mind?

He is the one making things happen (we think) and maybe every survivor is like an aspect of his personality (like the movie Identity)???

[JediJaina]

A couple of people are saying that the comic book is a spoiler.

http://www.livejournal.com/community/scans_daily/193624.html

The comic page in English.

[Trilogist]

I love this show. The only thing that scares me is that JJ Abrams guy is doing it, the same guy who takes cliffhangers and stupid plot twists to an extreme with Alias. I hope this show doesn't go in that direction.

[JediJaina]

The thing that's kinda stupid is that it's being hyped as just JJ Abrams' show. He's the co-creator. In fact, he hasn't written an episode of the show since the pilot. The other co-creator Damon Lindelof has written a couple of episodes and a lot of people say he's the one in charge. JJ Abrams is concentrating on MI:3.

[goodwije]

ok, i havent been as much of a regular veiwer as you'all but didn't the french lady say that her group where there for scientific studies? If thats true than I think that kind of screws the purgatory/other planet theories.

hmm.. from the comic book, that an alien influence is controling events on the island. Interesting. How could they reveal any of it though without changing the story..

[Master Cephus]

What if there is no french lady? We've seen how the island can make you see things that aren't true. She could also be one of the aliens actually doing experiments...

[goodwije]

she seemed a little.. insane, to be an alien to me.. but could be. We will have to wait and see if anyone else sees her besides the Iraqi fella.

David Fury is one of the writers, but they all say that the one really in "charge" of the show is Lindelof who is writer, exec producer, and co-creator. I never was a fan of Buffy or Alias oddly enough.

Claire was still pregnant! But she forgot who everyone was.

Charlie took Ethan out! That was a big WOW!

But I hate how they leave all these stories hanging.

Ohh did anyone read that Micheal Eisner didn't want to put Lost on the air, because him an a few of the guys who run things at Disney didn't think it was very good? Although it has also come out that Eisner thought that Finding Nemo was going to be a "wake up call" for the guys at Pixar. He didn't think it was good. Apparently he just doesn't know what the public wants.

[JediJaina]

*shudder* Eisner is dumb.

The show is getting very interesting.

[Master Cephus]

finally got to watch Lost last night.

Decent episode I thought...didn't really find anything out.

Next week's episode is entitled: Numbers -

Originally posted by Next Lost episode
When Hurley becomes obsessed with the French woman and heads into the jungle to find her, Jack, Sayid and Charlie have no choice but to follow. Meanwhile, Locke asks Claire to help build a mysterious item.

Hurley has a flashback of a huge life-altering experience before coming on the plane, the number-one thing Americans dream about, but that it ended up being the worst thing that could have happened because the experience was cursed. It hurt everyone he loved--and that curse is tied to the island. Plus, Boone and Locke continue their work on the hatch.

[JediJaina]

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>finally got to watch Lost last night.

I think we did find a few things out. I think Jin was ashamed of his roots (the way he said his father was dead which wasn't true) and sacrificed himself to be with Sun by doing nasty things for her father.


We also discovered that Walt and Locke really don't want to leave the island. Locke apparently has had a bad past. When Walt asked about Locke's dad, Locke said he wasn't cool. We also know from earlier that Locke was in foster care.

Did you see Hurley on the TV when the little girl was watching it?

[Master Cephus]

yeah, my belief is that Hurly stole someone's lottery ticket and won and the person put a curse on his money....or something to that effect. Hurley ends up spending all of the money, except for enough to buy a round trip plane ticket to Australia...

But if you think about it, We knew Locke and Walt likes it at the island. We didn't know about Jin and his father, but that really doesn't matter in the story I don' think. But what I don't understand is after that scene with his father, he then turns Sun down? What the heck?

[JediJaina]

He didn't know that she spoke English (if that's the scene I think you're referring to) and he thinks there's something between her and Michael.

If what I'm reading is correct, Hurley doesn't steal the ticket. The TV show that Hurley was on was not in Australia. Jin hadn't made it to Sydney by that time.

[Master Cephus]

that's just my guess...I am probably wrong

I freaked out when I saw Hurley on the TV. I can't WAIT to see Hurley's flashbacks, he's my favorite.

As always, the entire show Wednesday gave me goosebumps. I also loved how they showed so many new faces in the background, they can always kill off and add characters to that show because there are what, 46 people who survived the crash?

YES! Locke works for the box company.

Oh man I LOVE HUGO HURLEY!!! And I love how every single show leaves me with goosebumps, last night my hair actually stood up when they showed the numbers on the container they have been uncovering. My son and I were both screaming "THE NUMBERS!" at the TV.

Yes, we are weird, but hey, entertainment is grand!

Hurley! Hurley! Hurley! Hurley! Hurley! Hurley! Hurley!

[Master Cephus]

Hurley's box company is not in the U.S. I thought...

maybe locke works for the corporate office or something

GREAT EPISODE!!!

The numbers on the hatch...what do those numbers mean?!?

We don't get another episode until April 13...that episode is called:

"Deux Ex machina"


that really sucks!

Putting everything together, we know that the numbers is what drove the boat the french woman was on to crash, and Hurley being cursed is what made the plane crashed...hmmm

I just wonder what is in that hatch! style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/notify.gif

[Brian]

Almost caught up! I've got the "...translation" one to watch. Man, I thought Claire's baby had been "stolen" from her when she disappeared. Was that a dream sequence or a dream of mine? Where did I get that from?

[JediJaina]

I think an episode a while back had the baby as stolen in her dream, but she's still pregnant.

[Brian]

Yeah, noticed that. I get some of the episodes mixed up. Like before I watched the Ep3 trailer, I watched the episode "Outlaws" a Sawyer-centric episode. I thought I'd seen it before since it had the doctor's dad in it. Man, this show can be confusing if you don't watch every week. Kind of like Alias...

[JediJaina]

Yeah you have to watch this show in sequence. Or it can get confusing.

[Daibutsusan73]

Argh! I found out about it too late. When I first saw the commercials I thought it was a fictitious show, sort of based on survivor. You know, a copy of a copy and all that. So I thought it looked like unoriginal garbage. Then I was talking to one of my producers at work and she began to explain it to me, it sounded awsome, and I got so upset that I missed half of the first season. I don't want to come in half way, so......Does any body know when it will be coming out on DVD?

[Master Cephus]

according to the link above given by Brian, it will be out September 6

[Daibutsusan73]

Heh...whew, I'm a moron. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blush.gif

Interesting story about Lost Q&A panel (http://aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=19645)

[Marbleman]

This show is one of the few reasons I watch TV. I've seen all but a few episodes.

*POSSIBLE SPOILERS FOR THOSE HAVEN'T SEEN THE MORE RECENT EPISODES*

Don't you all think its too bad Boone's sister isn't really dead like he hallucinated awhile back. Mr. Locke needs to mind his own business - maybe then she won't become a good person so I can continue to find her atrocious. There is no hope for her redemption! Being on a wacked out, possibly cursed purgatorial island doesn't change people overnight.

Circumstances should arise in which Sawyer goes boar-crazy on her. Then Sayid VS Sawyer. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif

Since I posted this, they made yet another announcement. The script was so long for the finale that it's going to be 2 hours by itself followed by the season finale of Alias.

And Locke's episode was heart wretching!

[Master Cephus]

GREAT episode tonight!

I am really wanting to know who kicks the bucket now...I am thinking it can't be the obvious person...but you never know...

I can't believe that the season is almost over, then we will have to wait for a HUGE amount of time before it comes back on...

[Blizzard]

Theresa falls up the stairs.
Theresa falls down the stairs.

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, I had to get up and turn on all the lights after that.

And of course we immediately thought of Charlie when they found all that heroin.

Locke is my new favorite character, because he figured out the island is talking to him.

[JediJaina]

Locke pretty much caught onto the island from nearly the beginning.

Yeah I saw the heroin and thought uh-oh...Charlie

[BobPalpatine]

Yea all those drugs are going to present a problem for Charile.

That episode was absolutely amazing. I had to download it because I worked Wednesday, but I finally got to watch it today. I got goosebumps at the end because it was so good.

When they showed Boone all bloodied and stuff I knew something was going to happen to him when they went to find the plane.

Just wow....

Fury Leaves Lost (http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire2005/index.php?category=0&id=30738)

David Fury, a key writer and co-executive producer of ABC's hit series Lost, told SCI FI Wire that he will not be returning for the just-announced second season, but will immediately begin working on two other series, The Inside and 24, and maybe develop a show on his own. The series' writers have wrapped the first season of the hit SF drama.

"I'm very proud of Lost and my contribution to the show, but for numerous personal reasons, I feel like it's time for me to move on to other things," said Fury, best known for being a writer on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. "I spent seven years of my career in one place [working on Buffy and its spinoff series, Angel], and it's a lot of fun to work in different worlds. Lost was a lot of fun, and I have a great deal of gratitude for [series co-creators] J.J. [Abrams] and Damon [Lindelof]. I know the show will continue to be great, and I look forward to viewing it."

Fury wrote four scripts for Lost, including the fourth episode, "Walkabout," which centered on Terry O'Quinn's character, Locke, and contained a whopper plot twist. "I think my favorite will always be 'Walkabout,'" Fury said in an interview. "It helped set the tone for what the show could be outside of the pilot. It was also served so well by the performance of Terry O'Quinn and some great production values and direction."

Fury will reunite with his former Whedonverse colleagues at The Inside, a Fox drama co-created by Tim Minear (Angel, Wonderfalls) and Howard Gordon (Angel, 24). "I'll be starting this Monday [April 11]," Fury said. "I'm very excited about it. Tim and I have been anxious to work on something together, and this was a nice opportunity. I had wanted at the very least to write a script for him, but there was a lot of backstage goings-on with Tim and Howard, and they made it happen for Fox to bring me over. I'll be a full-time co-executive producer for the remaining six episodes left in [The Inside's] 13-episode order. Then, as soon as I'm done with that, I'll be going over to 24. I've been playing in the genre world for so long now, it will be interesting to go over there."

As for the long-term future, Fury revealed that he may head back to Abrams' camp again someday. "I've been talking with Bad Robot, J.J.'s company, about possibly developing a show. I would love to develop with J.J., and he would love to develop with me, so we are going to try and make that happen." Lost airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT. The Inside is slated to premiere in the fall.

De Ravin Delivers On Lost (http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire2005/index.php?category=0&id=30783)

Emilie de Ravin, who plays Claire on ABC's hit series Lost, told SCI FI Wire that she doesn't know whether her character's new baby will turn out to be good or evil. "I guess that's yet to be revealed, whether the baby is normal or not," de Ravin said in an interview. "It seems normal."

De Ravin's character gave birth on the April 6 episode of the show. To play Claire's new infant, "We've got twins we're working with," de Ravin said. "They're very cute and very tiny. I think it's definitely going to add a dynamic to the set, having a baby around."

Until the recent episode, "Do No Harm," the Australian actress had spent months walking around the Lost set in Hawaii sporting an ever-expanding pregnancy suit. Actually depicting the child's birth presented a whole other challenge, she said. "That was an interesting episode to shoot, not being a mother myself," she said. "Talking to my sisters, who both have children, and doing all the research I did about this labor that was obviously looming for Claire since day one, and really getting into it for the episode, was such a strange thing, because it's such a gritty, personal thing, giving birth. It's different for every woman in every situation. I'm really happy with it. It turned out really well."

It helped, de Ravin added, that an obstetrician was on set. "She was great, guiding along, helping, because we wanted to make it as realistic and natural as possible for TV," de Ravin said. "I think TV often skims over birth. They're usually not very realistic, and we were trying to go for as gritty as we could and as real as we could." Lost airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

The Last episode was Brilliant. A highlight for all television shows this year.

Lost Finale Is Super-Sized (http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire2005/index.php?category=0&id=30810)

Javier Grillo-Marxuach, a writer and supervising producer on ABC's hit series Lost, told SCI FI Wire that the much-anticipated season finale will clock in at three hours and give fans everything they love about the show. "In terms of epic storytelling and shocking destiny, you ain't seen nothing yet!" Grillo-Marxuach said in an interview. "We were going to do a two-hour finale [over two weeks], and then ABC asked if we could do 90 minutes [the second week] so they could schedule it against American Idol. Carlton [Cuse] and Damon [Lindelof, who co-created the show with J.J. Abrams,] did an amazing job on the finale script, and their first draft came in a little long anyway. [ABC] looked at it and decided to do a two-hour. So 'Exodus Part 1' will air on May 18th, and the epic saga that is 'Exodus Part 2' will air May 25th. The final two hours is so full of incident and character and shocks and scares and drama, all the things that people love about Lost, that it would have been silly to cut things out. So we've got a 25-hour first season! We busted our butts on it, but it's not going to feel like it's been padded. We are very proud of it."

Grillo-Marxuach wrote five episodes in the freshman season and confirmed that he would return for the second season, which begins production in July. Reflecting on his efforts this year, he said, "'... In Translation,' which I wrote with Leonard Dick, is my favorite episode this season." The episode revealed the troubled backstory to Jin, played by Daniel Dae Kim. "It was such a great character piece for Jin. Daniel's performance was fantastic. I don't think it's our flashiest episode. There are episodes that have more incidents in them, but it was so emotional and was so much a closure for me, because I wrote the first episode ['House of the Rising Sun'] about Jin and Sun. My dad even wrote me an e-mail after that episode telling me he was proud of me."

As to what the castaways will have to endure next season, Grillo-Marxuach said: "The second season is strictly top secret right now. Damon has alluded to his ideas about what the second season is going to be like, and once the first season is over, we are going to begin secret summit meetings to start bashing out how it will lay out over the course of the season. Come May, we'll have a lot more information about what's going to be happening. But our masterminds are very much at work on what that second season will be about." Lost airs on Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

[Blizzard]

Lost is awesome tonight, it's a show for anyone who hasn't seen it, it is recapping every thing that has ever happened.

WATCH IT!

[Master Cephus]

Guys what is everyone's thought so far!!!

I know you guys have been watching the show...you can't stop even if you wanted to!

[JediJaina]

My thought as of the last episode is that Kate is really screwed up and I have less and less sympathy for her.

I think what this is going to lead to is a lot of people not trusting each other.

[Master Cephus]

yeah I was shocked about Kate...I still want to know what she did to become wanted...was she just a bank robber? She doesn't seem like the type to be a robber...

If Walt and Michael do not go on the boat, who takes their place?

[BobPalpatine]

Last week's episode was pretty amazing. I especially enjoyed the talk between Sawyer and Jack. Sawyer telling Jack about his father was great. Made you care a little more about Sawyer.

I'm interested to see how the finale plays out.

From what I hear Michelle Rodriguez's character is going to be a recurring one. She was in the back of the plane. So who wants to bet that the people in the other half of the plane survived? Bet it all goes back to when Boone is on the transmitter in the plane and hears "Were the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815!"

[Blizzard]

I am going to be screaming and freaking out for 2 hours tonight, I just know it. And I am going to love every minute!

[BobPalpatine]

Yea I'm ready for tonight. Although I wish I wasn't so sick so I could enjoy it a little more.

My only fear for this show is that the first season is so good that I hope they can keep it up. J.J. Abrams doesn't have a good track record for keeping his shows running as well as they did their first season. Although this one I think will be different. There are so many other good writers on it that it looks like it might be worth it.

[JediJaina]

I think Abrams gets way too much credit for Lost. He's co-creator of this show. The writers have said a few times that the co-creator Damon Lindelof should get just as much credit. Abrams only co-wrote the pilot. Lindelof wrote a couple of episodes including co-writing the finale. JJ is kept in the know of course, but he's been busier with other projects from what I understand.

[goodwije]

so what did you think? The others.. not at all what i suspected, they have a boat and fuel, and guns and ammo. It really changed my perspective of them.

What was it about The Black Rock that changed Danielle's friends? It just looked like an old ship, and did anyone else think the blond driver of the other's boat looked a little younger? They never did show a good shot of him, my guess he is 16 and the lost Alex.

The boy they where after was Walt, actually that wasn't too much of a surprise to me.

And Charlie took the dope.. what a fool

They seemed like slavers. It changed my perspective greatly as well, but I still don't know what to think of them.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>What was it about The Black Rock that changed Danielle's friends? It just looked like an old ship...[/b][/quote]
Maybe there was some root of plague left over from long ago... or a curse of some kind had been unleashed. I would expect almost anything at this point, heh.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>... and did anyone else think the blond driver of the other's boat looked a little younger? They never did show a good shot of him, my guess he is 16 and the lost Alex.[/b][/quote]
I actually thought the driver looked like a woman.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>The boy they where after was Walt, actually that wasn't too much of a surprise to me.[/b][/quote]
Agreed. The whole scene was really powerful, though.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>And Charlie took the dope.. what a fool[/b][/quote]
Agreed once more. But maybe he just took the statuette because it looked pretty or something? style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

[Blizzard]

I couldn't see hardly anything, I taped it and don't have a good antenna. I was watching it in the dark, way past my bedtime, screaming and freaking out, my stomach is still in a knot.

Man, that just sucked. I wanted some sort of answer, but we got nothing. They hinted at purgatory, but Claire scratched that idea.

Charlie, ya idiot! But I knew he'd take it.

So THAT was the watch that Michael had, I guess I missed somewhere that he had the watch that the Chinese guy was taking to America. But why did he just give it to him then, did he figure he'd already lost his wife? I thought they had made up?

Sawyer suicidal? Didn't we always figure that?

I was just thinking that Hurley sure has gained a lot of weight and then, sure enough, Arnt points it out. Must be all that catered food on the set. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif

Poor Leslie Arnt. I know so many people like that who I wish would just spontaniously combust. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif

I used to like Kate, but now I like Shannon way better. Kate isn't standing out as a good major charcter, her storyline sucks.

And I love Locke. He has the best story ever. I see why he says that the island took Boone and had planned on it, because Locke's legs went out just so he couldn't save Boone, but hey now they are fine again. Too freaky.

Just thinking about LOST make my hair stand up. I hate scary movies, but I love suspense. Now we will be in suspense allllllllllll summer!!!

[JediJaina]

I knew we weren't really going to get any answers about the hatch. That would give away too much too soon.

What did surprise me was the "others" taking Walt like that. That is going to be one great storyline for next season.

[BobPalpatine]

Yea, the Walt kidnapping scene was the most powerful scene in there. Although Hurley screaming "The numbers are bad!" over and over was damn good also.

It's just amazing how much I like this show. I was talking to my mother about it though. It seems like I'm always scared someone is going to die in it though.

Yea, so I didn't get to see it until today because I had to download it. They decided to show our house at 7PM Wednesday which means that I didn't get to see it. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif Oh well I got to see it now so its all better.

[Blizzard]

I taped it because Cam (my son for those who don't know) was camping, and man, watchign it again with him, knowing what was going to happen scared the hell out of me. The only TV show we have ever bought season by season on DVD is South Park, but I MUST HAVE LOST ON DVD!!!!!!!!

[Filoviridae]

Here's an interesting article on Lost and other shows but it does have some spoilers:

http://www.tvsquad.com/2005/06/01/spoilers-anonymous/

Also from the same article is a pink sheet from the script, possibly for season two. Again might be a spoiler for you and I can't vouch for the authenticity:

http://www.oceanic-air.com/images/oa_front-letter1a.jpg

[BobPalpatine]

Wow that site that transcribes the whispers in the jungle is awesome. I'm wondering when they are going to explain all that.

So another major character is going to die next season? I don't want them to kill off everyone.

Ohh, and I'm willing to bet good money that the people in the back end of the plane survived. That would explain why the transmission Boone hears in the plane is "We're the survivor's of Oceanic Flight 815!" With the addition of Michelle Rodriguez as a character who was in the back end of the plane it pretty much leaves it obvious.

I really love the mystery to the show. The only thing I hope is that they explain it all before the series ends. That was one thing about Xfiles that bothered me. It took too long to explain some things. They need to throw out tidbits of information more often.

[P-Ray]

I was actually a little disappointed with the season finale because of that reason.

I wanted atleast a couple of answers or something to tide me over for next season.


I mean I'm glad they got the hatch open and all but give me something.

[TheMann]

Anyone hear that Samuel L. Jackson is going to be on the show as a guest star? Star Wars connection for you.

[Brian]

No, I hadn't heard. He'll probably be in one of those great flashback scenes, much like Michelle Rodriguez was a few weeks ago.

[TheMann]

Yes he will be in a flashback.

Also, heard that new cast members are coming...not sure who though.

[Master Cephus]

Michelle Rodriguez is joining the cast.

I heard about SLJ, but that rumor isn't true.

I have also heard about another cast member dying off due to contract negotiations going bad. I have heard it was <div onClick="openClose('f9e65615781f058c63fc7b2087455d18')" style="font-weight: bold">[ Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide]</div><div id="f9e65615781f058c63fc7b2087455d18" style="display:none">Sayid, but I hope not, because his character's background is really good.</div>.

But I was creeped out when he told Jack, "See you in the next life." Gahhhhhh

[Master Cephus]

yeah My wife and I both looked at each other and said the same thing...

but they are really going to have to do some explaining about how he got there and the coincedence factor in that. I am all for it, but it's going to be a tight rope between believable and stuff....even though it is Lost style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif

We get answers only to get more questions. Always the best type of show.

Yea, the show has already established that there is going to be many coincidences. I figured it is just par for the course. The writers will make into something real interesting too I bet.

[P-Ray]

Coincidence is the basis for the show because at this point it seems like all the main characters have crossed paths somehow even before the plane crash.

[Marbleman]

Hmhrm. My thoughts:

They will discover that Desmond is Locke's only son, spontaneously conceived without a mother. And Locke will try to sacrifice him to the island, because it is destiny. But Claire's baby, whose ability to speak is revealed, will command the smoke creatures, polar bear, etc. to stop him. At this point Sawyer will return to warn them that Boone has come come back from the dead and become king of the pirates. Walter is now his undead pirate apprentice.

Yeah Desmond was just too much of a coincidence for me.

Why? There is obviously something paranormal going on that has to do with bizarre coincidences.

Yea, the show has already established that there is going to be many coincidences. I figured it is just par for the course. The writers will make into something real interesting too I bet.

I just would like for them to throw more of a curve ball sometime. It'll be in danger of being too predictable if they keep it up.

What does everyone think about the raft thing? Who do you guys think are the guys that took Walter?

I think they are just part of the Island or atleast people that know Walt may have "special powers".

Wow! what an episode tonight!

[Blizzard]

I know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Lunatic]

Did you see the logo that's on everything? The Black "S" in a white circle. On Desmond Jumpsuit, all the products in the underground lair, etc.

Well I think I saw the logo on the Shark tail in a pan shot underwater. The Shark is passing by the camera for a couple of seconds and near the tail wham! ..the logo. It's only a fraction of a second. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/shocked.gif

Did anyone taped it and can confirm this with slow motion?

If this is what I saw, the context of the serie could be very different.

^ I noticed that too! I ddin't tape it so I couldn't rewind and watch in slow motion but I swear I saw it.

Very good episode finally got a peek at "the others" .

[Master Cephus]

I don't think this needs to be in spoiler tags because it is more opinion than known fact...

I am thinking that those people could be people from the tail end of the plane...gone crazy...just a thought.

[Blizzard]

Maybe the girl it shows them getting locked up with in the hole. I thought right away that she was from the tail of the plane.

Did anyone hear what it was Walt was saying on the premiere? When I watched the rerun of it I clearly heard Walt talking backwards. My son heard it on the radio when they played it backwards, but can't remember what it was. Something like, "Press the button. No button is bad."

[Blizzard]

I just found an mp3 of it...

Ooooooooooooo, chills!

[Master Cephus]

at I read on other forums that he is saying "Don't press the buttons" I dont know it's hard to hear...

[Marbleman]

If I were on theIsland that long I would be too enamored with cocoa butter to run from polar bears and smoke pillars and Others.

That chocolate will ruin them all.

[Anguirus111]

The plot device button I'm guessing. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/chortle.gif

LOL!

He actually says, "Press the button. No button is bad." Only backwards.

My son and I can make the hair stand up on our heads just be sitting around talking about Lost. Is that weird? style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif

[DarthAnakin]

So the logo that's on everything is of "The Dharma Initiative" and the island is called "The Swan"! Very informative episode, and we learned more about the others as well.

[Marbleman]

Next episode Hillary Duff is thrown into the pit with Michael Sawyer and Jin.

[Starhorse]

I have a feeling those folks that threw the 3 guys in the pit aren't the actual others. I'd bet they are all people from the tail section of the plane. They must be understandably paranoid about new people on the island, and aren't taking any chances. Just my 2 cents.

I didn't watch Season 1, what is all this "others" business?

[Starhorse]

Supposedly there are "other" people on the island, though I don't believe anyone has seen them yet. If you haven't seen season 1 I would highly recommend either renting or even purchasing it if you've enjoyed the first 3 episodes of the 2nd season. I'm doubtful that it's a purchase anyone would be dissapointed with.

Dude... no car, no moola!

Yes we have seen the "others". The first one was Ethan Rom, who pretended to be a plane crash survivor, but Hurley discovered he wasn't on the passenger list. Ethan kidnapped the pregnant Claire and after Claire suddenly reappeared not remembering anything Ethan came back and wanted her baby and Charlie shot and killed him (I think it was Charlie, or Claire).

If you rearrange the letters of his name, Ethan Rom, you get "Other Man". That's why I love this show... very freaky.

And we saw the Others on the boat when they kidnapped Walt in the season 1 finale. They are after the children. The Others are also the ones that kidnapped the French woman, Danielle's son Alex. That is why SHE kidnapped Claire's baby and tried to give it to the Others in return for her son.

[Starhorse]

Yeah you're right, I forgot about Ethan. Pretty good bet that he's one of the "others".

The Others are also supposedly the ones that set up the black smoke at the end of the first season, which indicated they were coming. But Charlie thinks that the French woman did it, because she's a nutter.

makes sense

[Justin]

Good call, Starhorse. Now...what is in the bottle that that chick buried?

[Master Cephus]

It was the letters that everyone wrote. When Michael, Sawyer, Jin, and Walt set sail on the boat last season, Charlie got people to write letters to people back home. When Claire found the bottle, to them it meant that they are probably dead.

I think she is hiding it because I think that she wants people to cling to that hope that they will still be rescued.

Good Epi last night. These are filler episodes. I am waiting to find out what our season objective is. Last season was sending off the boat and finding out what is in the hatch. This episode, I can't quite figure out what we are trying to obtain...

[DarthAnakin]

That bunker the "others" are living in looks alot like the one Jack & Locke found. Anyone else notice that? Maybe they're connected somehow, or are atleast built by the same company, The Dharma Project or whatever it's called.

[Master Cephus]

Those people aren't the others, they are from the plane crash, they were from the tail section of the plane. And they are connected, if you look at the wall inside the bunker, you see that Dharma insignia on the wall. But it's not the same as the one from the hatch. That section is called the "The Swan" and it has a swan in the Dharma insignia. The one that Sawyer, Jin, and Michael are taken to looks as if it might have a cross on it....

[DarthAnakin]

^ Oh yeah, I guess they aren't "the others" makes sense.

[Blizzard]

They are the "Tailies" from the tail of the plane.

[DarthAnakin]

Crazy how many of them died already.

[Master Cephus]

LOL

My hunch is that either:

1) The real "Others" have been after them from the beginning, hence the "Lord of the Flies" command structure they have going over there or

2) They got the sickness that the French lady spoke of....

I'm leaning towards that one.

[goodwije]

i think they got sick of the bossy chick and jumped off a cliff.. i do not normally support violence against women but i really wanted sawyer to swat her like a fly

[Blizzard]

^LOL!

I think the polar bears ate them all.

[Master Cephus]

last night episode was rather slow I thought.

I normally do not notice things like that, but I imagine that they were trying to do some character development and introduce the Tailies (as they are becoming to be called). It just took forever I thought.

and what stinks is the fact that we have to wait for over 3 weeks to see the next episode.

We also heard last season that a major character would be dying due to contract negotiations going bad.</div>

[P-Ray]

I thought the episode was a little slow last night too and they added even more questions.

Why do we have to wait for 3 weeks. Is it baseball playoffs or something?

I don't really mind if this happens at all.

[Kapit]

okay, i have a question

i've recently obtained all the episodes thus far, and episode 11 is missing the last 10 minutes

it was the episode where the candian guy that wasnt on the manifest took the pregnant girl at charlie. i got up to jack and kate finding charlie hanging in the tree or whatever

does anyone remember if there was anything important that happened after that?

[Blizzard]

Well yeah!

Jack and Kate brought Charlie back from the dead. They gave up at one point and when we were sure he was dead and gone and we were bawling our heads off... he came back to life.

One of the best scenes ever!

The man that kipnapped Claire was one of the "Others" Ethan Rom.

i wish i had got into this show when it was on, but i guess that's what DVDs are for

[Filoviridae]

This is a great theory and even if it doesn't pan out this way it's a good read and would make an awesome plot.

The original link got slammed by the Digg affect so here's the Google cache:

Original ( http://www.4815162342.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3377 )

[Master Cephus]

^ decent, but the more I read about the theories and such from different forums, it just seems like everyone is trying to use everything from the episode (ex. "did you notice that one tree only had 15,000 leaves, well we all know that the average Coconut tree has at least 23,400 leaves...that means that X is going to do Y).

I think when it's all said and done, it's going to be a little more simpler...

[Filoviridae]

I agree. I think it would be hard to pull off that complex of a plot without going over the heads of 90% of their viewers. Still I love the tie-ins proposed with the scientists names...maybe something like this will happen but it would have to be at a lesser dumbed down scale.

[Justin]

Well that was a pretty good episode tonight, although the last two were better. I really liked Mr. Eko's story...he's a pretty cool character.

And Locke is a total badass as we saw tonight, lol.

Did anyone else feel almost pained to see Charlie do all that awful stuff? I almost said "no, don't do it!" to the TV lol.

[P-Ray]

I was actually kinda bored by that episode.

I mean it was decent but I don't know...

[Blizzard]

Tons of people said it sucked and I was defending the episode left and right. But I am so done now. People forget it's just one chapter in the grand scheme of things. Something in that episode is going to have you saying, "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" eventually. I just can't put my finger on it yet. I missed a few things, but I taped it and am going to watch it again.

Note to myself: Charlie's fingers said FATE this week.

[Master Cephus]

^ I think this is just a filler episode that sets up a decision that Charlie makes later on. Just by his look last night at the end. I think he is either going to be that bad guy that's not really bad, just makes the wrong decision.

I didn't understand the episode last night...I couldn't connect the necessity of the baby being baptised with the flashbacks...anyone shed some of the light they got out of the story?

[Blizzard]

All I could connect it to was Claire's story from the first season. Remember when the man (I don't remember who he was, adoption agent maybe) told Claire she and only she had to raise her child or the it would be pure evil?

[DarthAnakin]

Yeah I agree it was probably just a filler episode, and it looks like a Jack and Anna Lucia romance might be in the near future.

[Master Cephus]

^ was it me, or was it a complete turn-off when AL asked Jack if he'd "been hitting that"? It just made me twinge...

[DarthAnakin]

Yeah it was a pretty awkward moment

[JediJaina]

I didn't hate the episode last night, but I was a bit bored with it as well. Although I do agree that the way these things work it usually will tie into something later on where we'll say 'aha'!

[Marbleman]

Charlie's dad was a butcher?

Was he an abusive butcher?

[DarthAnakin]

I though it was pretty crazy when Charlie though he saved the baby and yet apparently he was was the one that took it out of Claire's tent and brought it down to the beach.

[Kaken Osmex]

I really liked the last episode. I think that it showed a lot of pressure and pain that Charlie is carrying around. It seems that he had the burden of saving his family his whole life. First from poverty, then his brother from drugs/himself. In the end, when Charlie needed someone there for him everyone bailed.

Now, he feels that same responsibility for Claire and the baby but he keeps messing things up. In the end when he needed somone to understand and believe him, no one was there. So he did what he felt was best at the time and that turned out to be a mistake. In the end though his goal of having Aarron baptized was met, just not the way he wanted.

I feel really bad for Charlie, I am hoping that Echo can help him out. He has turned out to be one of my favorite characters.

[Kapit]

i thought last week's episode was pretty good...i like the episodes that show more of the traumatizing backstories, and i thought it was really cool that we see so far back in charlie's life...almost like his story is coming to an end.... style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif

but i have to say that eko's episode was far better, mostly because we actually got to see the black cloud for more than a second

now, maybe someone can help me out here.......the black cloud isn't the monster, but is just a seperate part of the security system, correct?

[Count Dookie]

I think it is some kind of monster
