I knew it was Locke in the box. Because I knew he was Jeremy Bentham, although I had my moments, I will admit, where I thought it might be Ben.
I think Sawyer whispered to Kate that if he didn't make it to find and somehow benefactor his daughter Clementine.
Charlotte (C.S. Lewis, by the way, cough) is Annie, although she may be too young.
I wonder if they want to explain Walt's fast-growing-up with the slowing of time on the island. like when he got back to the "real world," his age had to catch up with him.
Per going back to the island, Jack wants to go back. Sun seems to want to too and want Widmore to fund finding it. Hurley's crazy enough to be convinced to go back. Sayid seems game. So there's Kate to convince, Lapidus to dig up from under a barstool somewhere and Desmond to find and convince. Sounds like enough for a full season.
Well, I guess we knew Jin was going to die since Daniel Dae Kim DID get a DWI.
Also, what the hell happened to Daniel and the people in the life boat? Is there going to be a spin-off show?
Ben's zingers of the night: "time traveling bunnies," "So,?" and him chastising Locke for not finding the right flowers, and Locke's plaintive "What do they look like?" were awesome.

That's all I've got for now. I'm sure I'll update as I think on it some more.

"Ji Yeon"

1. I hate that smug bitch that is Juliet. I wish Charlotte had knocked her out for good last week.
2. I am apparently one of the few, according to message boards, that 1) was not confused by this episode, but furthermore, 2) felt like they were slightly insulting my intelligence.
3. The FF/FB thing was cheap. CHEEEAAAPP!
4. Once again, you drink and drive, Lost Cast Member, you get killed. Let that be a lesson. Again.
5. The Oceanic Six are Sayid, Jack, Kate, Sun, Hurley and . . .? Thought we were going to find out. Oh, I know--maybe it's Michael. Since his revelation as Ben's man on the boat was so anticlimactic, maybe they'll find something else to reveal about him, other than his corpse-like complexion.
6. Sun and Jin's baby was uber-cute. Gah, Asian little girls are precious. (Hopefully that doesn't seems as pervy as it might look. I am speaking from a mother's POV.)
7. Hurley is WEARING the hell out of that suit.
8. What's up with the "good" when Sun tells Hurley no one else is coming?

That is all for now.

Nathan Fillion is yummy.  Lucky Monica. 

Where are Jin and Sun? Seriously, did Sayid just leave them in the jungle?

I like Benry, despite his creepiness.  Please don't kill him off. Jack and Juliet, I can do without. 

This whole mini-season stuff is lame.

Who the hell is Jacob?

I want Eko's Jesus stick.

Following the precedent already set by "Lost's" writers, Kate has to die now, ala Ana Lucia, for doing the nasty with Sawyer, ahem, James, who is also yummy.

I will not watch "Day Break," even if you promise sneak peaks of February's "Lost" premiere.

Open letter to the Lost fans posting on TWoP forums:
It is just a TV show. If you don't like it, change the channel. I think Laguna Beach comes on in the same time slot. Then, at least when you bitched about the people on the show, you would be bitching about real people who live REAL lives in the REAL world of Orange County.
It is just a TV show. The producers are not trying to ruin your lives. The producers and writers don't care about you. They care about ratings. And you're still watching, regardless of how many stupid story-lines they start or how many characters they kill. They do not care if you thought Ana Lucia was hot or Eko was sexy. They did, however, kill Shannon off just to appease me because I dreamed of strangling her myself on a nightly basis.
Lost is supposedly slated for two more seasons after this one. If you're tired of it, quit watching it. You don't have to tell me about it. I'm reading the forum threads to find out if there was anything I missed because I blinked, not to know that you actually wept at Eko's demise. Oh yeah, and with that in mind, IT'S JUST A BLOODY TV SHOW. If you want to weep over something worthwhile, watch CNN for 45 seconds at any point of the day. I promise, whatever you see, unless it's the "sudden shocking split" of Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillipe, will be much more worth crying over than the pretend death of a two-dimensional character on a crack-pot TV show.
I love Lost. I love TV. I like anything that can hold my attention for more than 3 minutes. Lost does that, even if it's making me laugh out loud at the absurdity of it. If you're tired of the castaways, try another show. I recommend Heroes or Jericho. They're both new enough so that their myseries aren't yet pissing people off.
And for the love of God, stop clogging up Television Without Pity.

Oh yeah, Lost is back on and I have a reason not to go to bed at 7 every night, now that I can't drink or smoke (which does blow as much as you might imagine.) So, per the Lost gossip that has been uber-circulating since the premiere last week, here are some of my observations questions after a second viewing on Itunes where I unabashedly froze frames and rewound scenes.  If anyone cares.

"A Tale of Two Cities"
*What exactly are the two cities?
*The song at the beginning is "Downtown" by Petula Clark, but Juliet takes the CD out of a Talking Heads case.
*The Stephen King book at the Others' book club is *Carrie*
*After the earthquake, all the Others go outside and look up. WTF?
*The music on the radio in Jack's car when he's spying on Sarah is the same music from the episode where Hurley gives Sayid the radio to fix and they end up sitting on the beach together at the end of the ep--remember? Anyway, it's the same music that Sayid and Hurley listen to and Sayid says "It could be coming from anywhere," and Hurley says "Or from any time." Dunh, dunh, duh.
*The dharma symbol where they're holding Sawyer, Kate and Jack has a hydra in it, which is also the name of the station, which is just cool.
*No, seriously, how did Jack get all the numbers on Sarah's cell phone? There's no way he stole it; she put it back in her purse and walked away.
*Is that a look of recognition on Sawyer's face when he sees Juliet? It could be construed as such. It could also be a classic "What the fuck is going on here?" look.

Quote of the episode:
Jack (to Juliet): "Do you think I'm stupid?" before he continues to jerk on chains hanging from the ceiling like a mentally challenged chimp.

I was also very amused, over and over again as I rewound and rewound, when Jack ran right smack into the glass of the aquarium they locked him up in. Tee Hee.

That's it. I know that's barely half the episode, but the rest of the ep was just "meh" for me. It better get better.
