    I don't see how this is going to "preserve" the audience? The biggest complaint about the show is that it moves too slow, and the revelations are anti-climactic if not nearly non-existent.

    Yada yada yada...sounds like the same exact thing he said about the season finale, and we all know how that went.

    I didn't think the SLJ casting was right. Haven't we already seen Rose's husband in a flashback? He wasn't played by SLJ.

    Abrams has proven again and again that he's not above outright lying to the fans and interviewers. Just check out this week's TV Guide. Wonder how much they enjoyed being played by him? My opinion has solidified that he and the writing team are just making it up as they go along. There is no...

    Well, I must have blinked and missed the "glimpses" of the monster, as I don't recall seeing anything. And the ending was pretty much spoiled when crazy French chick started in about "they said they're coming for the child...they're coming to take the boy." I'm getting sick of all the...

    I don't believe she knows how long she's been there. Sayid (or someone) mentioned her message had been repeating for 16 years and she replied, "has it been that long?"

    No, no, no.... We have to text by phone for the person we'd most like to see eat boar testicles. :D

    Well, what writer/producer would admit that anyway, even if it's true? Of course they're going to deny it.

    Or pointers from NBC on how to handle misdirection in promos. Great episode, though the hand-held camera work was barf-inducing. Do they jiggle the camera on purpose or just hire operators with Parkinson's disease? It's really ridiculous.

    Did you read the few posts above yours? The man Sawyer shot was not the right man.

    TV Guide has yet another feature article on "Lost" in their new issue. This provides a summary of all the main characters, what we know about them to date, and episode summaries for all the episodes to date. In their summary of last week's episode, they state that Claire is still "very much...

    The only viewers that matter to the ratings calculations are the 5,000 or so Nielsen families that report their viewing habits to Nielsen Media Research. The ratings are then extrapolated based on that small sample. Whether or not you personally watch a show is not making any difference in...

    Though judging by the outcome, Boone's muscles are more aesthetic than functional. :wink: That polar bear CGI was awful.

    I thought perhaps Locke had tampered with the compass so it would not accurately point north, rather than there being anything on the island that was interfering with it. Hence Sayid's line, "This compass is broken" (or something similar). There was also a line about it being "just over three...

    Of course. The networks lie their asses off in show promos.

    Not when they only had a 6 or 13 episode commitment to start the season. The remaining episodes were probably not even written yet.

    This is an incredibly slow moving timeline, though. Each episode only represents a day or two in "island time," so the entire series to date has only been about 2-3 weeks. Plus the producers have said not to expect any major weight losses for the characters since the actors are not being...

    They said they can't let the beards get totally out of control because they're filming the flashbacks at the same time as the rest of the island scenes, so the actors need to be able to believeably act in both "worlds" with their existing facial hair.

    I found the psychic sort of annoying. He kept telling her what to do, but not what would happen if she didn't do it.

    The new issue of "TV Guide" has some spoilers for next week's episode in their programming grid. For those who'd rather not know, I suggest not reading ahead and to avoid TV Guide Channel/digital cable menus that day.

    I have a feeling once we learn Sawyer's (jerk guy) backstory, he'll become a very sympathetic character.

    RE: Weight Fluctuations. Spoilered just in case: Spoiler:Articles written about the show say not to expect major weight fluctuations in the cast. The producers didn't want the actors to have to make such a commitment to get their roles (such as Tom Hanks in "Cast Away"), so they said they'll...

    I believe this week's episode repeats on Saturday evening, October 23. Anyone who missed all or parts, or just wants to see it again, will have that opportunity.

    Near the end of the scene where Jack was destroying the coffin, there was a cut to what seemed to be the dark jungle before the commercial break. Was there anything in this shot? It was so dark and fairly quick so I wasn't able to make out anything. But it must have been there for a...

    Locke would not be able to use the wheelchair on the island anyway, so he'd better hope his recovery is permanent. The tail seemed to tear away when they were still quite high (and would spiral nearly straight down, while the front with the wings could glide quite a distance), so unless...

    Very few of these theories stick to the "scientifically possible" criteria.
