I thought this episode was really great, and I said to myself that this is the best series ever made when I was done with it.

I dont know what, but theres something about lost that I really really enjoy, I just love it.

i thought it was good. moved things alone nicely.

Next weeks ep. is apparently a locke centric one, that was originally ment to be aired this week, but once they were both filmed they put them up in this order cause it made more sence apparently.

with jin being all dharmad out, a while back i saw an ad with everyone like that, so its looking like that wasnt just a hoax everyone will prob join up. Im assuming the time shifts will have stopped now, so their stuck in the dharma time

I bet anything that Ben was all torn up because he killed Penny. Ben is sick and twisted but I fucking love that guy. This gives Desmond a reason to come back as well, although I don't see how he will manage it.

To me it looks like after Locke left, the flashes stopped, but they were stuck in Dharma time and they had to survive somehow, so they joined Dharma and when the Oceanic 6 return, there'll be one last flash and they'll be back in 'their' time.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

really cool episode :o

I thought it was really sub par imo.

40% of the episode was Farraday's mom explaining how shit was gonna go down, which wasn't really that stimulating. The characters were asking questions that were figured out by the audience a few episodes ago, and then another 40% of the episode was the drama of "dealing" with going back, etc, which was just getting old at this point. All of this hardly made room for any really interesting plot development, rather it was more like the writers just were like using this episode as a boring segway for explaining how they were going to get back. For a show that draws viewers back because of it's ludicrous plot twists, it really was just like hell trying to watch the first 30 minutes.

The return of Lapidus, Jin as a part of Dharma, and Ben being Ben (wtf happened to him) were the only things worth watching, and that all happened in the last 10-15 minutes. I really enjoyed the last couple episodes, and this one just sucked majorly in comparison.

Possibly interesting parts, (like how Hugo knew about the plan, what Kate did with the kid, etc.) when inquired about were answered with "DON'T EVER ASK ME THAT AGAIN." or "Does that really matter right now?" YES! It does fucking matter! I mean I'm all cool with the writers deciding to withhold stuff from the viewer, but when you do so by making your characters act retarded it doesn't do anything but frustrate.


A solid number of Lost fans finished watching these time-travel episodes scratching their heads. It's necessary for the writers to explain to these folks what's "gonna go down," because they don't want to lose viewers. For those of us who are familiar with scifi weirdness and gonzo story-telling, this is explanation process is tedious, but it's the price you pay for having such a zany show break into the mainstream. It sucks, but oh well.

As for the quality of the overall episode, I respectfully disagree. How the Oceanic 6 return is pretty important to what's about to happen next, and I thought the build up to the flight and the "possibly interesting parts" you identified were all really entertaining. Anyway, Wednesday's episode is going to be killer. And it's kind of par for the course that Lost's writers lead into a dynamite episode with blander fare.

Seriously, this weeks ep is going to own so much, it's not even funny.

If Locke is not live and walking next ep, then its going to be all flashback of how and why he died.

In some of the promos you seem him talking to the law enforcement officer who escorted Sayyid onto the plane, and it looked like they were on a beach (the island?). He says "I remember dying." Makes me think ol' John's back. But it could be an epic fake, I dunno.

You didn't miss much to be honest.
We learned something new but other than that, you really didn't miss much.
Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

Not much was missed. Had some small fillers though.

Hurley seems to be very funny lately.

Hurley has always been the comedic relief. Lately though Ben has been on a roll with things like
"Whats gonna happen to the rest of the people on the plane?"
Ben: "Who cares?"
cava!

the best line of the season thus far goes to richard
John: "What's it do?"
Richard: "It's a compass john, it points north."

i giggled for like twenty minutes after that one.
so excellent.
