And of course the ending with Jack... WOW.

oh that ending was wonderful.  I played it three or four times.  It just came out of left field..so fantastic.

The last thing you would ever expect to see is Jack playing football in the Barracks!  Classic Lost at its best.  It was a breath of fresh air.  The whole episode was loads of fun.

Yes, I really enjoyed this episode as well. I was like Kenny, in that the Claire backstory was good, but was not really surprisingy to me, due to all the internet speculation the past few years. I am really interested to find out about Locke next week and the wheel chair. The hints they dropped this epsiode have me even more intrigued about his character, It seems like the Others know a whole bunch about him, and patchy just about dropped some stuff before he was cut off by Russo. I beleive that Locke pushed Patchy into the Security field more so to protect whatever secret that the Others know about him. I think same goes for blowing up the station, and the previews for next weeks episode look fasicnating as well. Really interested to find out about Jack, as he seemed pretty much at home on the compound playing football.

Locke is great.  My favorite guy.  Maybe that's one reason I had a hard time with the first part of the season, all on that other island.  I did like Juliet, but that's all I liked about that area.

Sister...you have a baby half-sister.  Obi-wan was wise to hide her from me.  ;D

ABC Picks Lost Up For Year 4

ABC on March 21 announced that it has renewed Lost for a fourth season, even as its ratings have slipped from the previous year. The announcement was made by ABC entertainment president Stephen McPherson at the March Development Meeting in Los Angeles.

Lost has seen its ratings drop after returning with new episodes following several weeks of hiatus and staking out a new Wednesday 10 p.m. ET/PT timeslot.

Even so, ABC reported that Lost holds the top slot in its time period for the third consecutive season among adults aged 18-49. In its new timeslot, it is the top series on any network.

It's unclear whether ABC will follow its strategy this season of airing six original episodes, then breaking for 13 weeks and resuming the season with an unbroken run of original episodes in the late winter.

OMG  :o   Last nights episode about Locke -- O -- M -- G !!!

Geekyfanboy

Lockes character has just gone to places that I never expected, he has his own agenda. I'm glad they finally explained how he got in the chair. And of course the ending.. which I did expect so it wasn't a huge surprise. This show just get stranger and stranger.

I do have to wonder what the writers are smoking when they are coming up with the stories.  :)

I don't know how they will ever start making things thread together correctly, if they even can. To me it has started to get confusing.  I like it, but I wonder how long we can take this soap opera, especially when it comes out of left field most of the time.

Oh, well, we can only hope for more cool episodes.

This just in, next week we find out Hurley is his own great grandfather and that Charlie is a clone.  :) :wacko

I have been and always will be, your friend.

The only way I can writing a show like this is start with the ending and go backwards.  I suspect some things will end up being irrelevant -- although what -- I cannot even guess.   They have had their ups and downs.  Last nights show was definitely a mystery everyone had been asking for almost 4 years.   At the end of last year, I was pretty disappointed after faithfully watching the show for 3 years.  I hope they can keep this pace up for the rest of the season.  The previews for next week I will take with a grain of salt.  Yes, someone will die but just like with other episodes the revelation will be a 2-edged sword.   So, who do you think it will be ?   Better yet, who do you WANT it to be ?

This latest episode was kind of a let down for me.  Jack I just don't get - again.  Locke - should of just called the cops when found his father again.  The guy is a con man and took his kidney for gosh sake!  I wasn't too shocked that it was his father that caused his back injury.  Ben I continue to hate more and more - which is maybe what the writers want.

And the very end of this episode - well let's just say the writers in my view have created the situation on the show where basically anything is possible.  The LOST island is starting to seem more like the "Shore Leave" planet from Star Trek everyday.  Without some kind of other worldly or supernatural force I don't see how everything that has happened since the show has been on can be explained within our knowledge base.  I'm starting to wonder if it's not all one big dream each of the characters is having.

Anyway, I'll keep watching.  But I'm feeling like a dupe at a carnival more and more.

LOL Rick

We enjoyed the show even though there are odd holes and such.  It is uncharacteristic for Jack to play football with these guys.  The idea was they made a deal...so he's going to throw the pigskin around with these guys?  No. 

There are many more examples of uncharacteristic behavior like that.

We just watch it for the drama.  The dialogue is great, acting is great, we just enjoy the ride. 

The ending with the Dad....predictable and such, but I'll enjoy the exchange between the Dad and Locke. 


Geekyfanboy

We're with you Elizur.. we watch it for the ride.. we hope there are answers along the way or at least at the end but it's been a fun ride so far.

Rico

One thing that's been really nagging me though this season is --- Will it all be worth it?  I like a great ride too, but I just constantly have this feeling we are being played with like Ben seems to do with everyone.  It's not a great feeling.  I agree though, I do enjoy the acting and the actors.  I think many of them have long careers ahead of them.

Elizur

I really like the acting of Sayied.  I know I butched the spelling of that name...forgive!

My wife and I watched him in Bride and Prejudice.  What a funny thing to see him dancing and singing, lol he was good in it.   Quite a different role.
