    Lost: Season Six

    You're preaching to the choir, Joe. I never thought the Losties died in the crash. I was simply pointing out the tarp as further proof they DID survive to the folks who insist on believing that the tacked on ABC footage is somehow legitimately part of the Darlton narrative. That's why I tempered...

    Lost: Season Six

    FWIW, in one of those "tagged on by ABC" shots you can also plainly see the "blue tarp" that was prominently featured throughout the series whenever Losties were assembled near the beach. Myself, I took that as further proof they did NOT die in the crash. So, although Damon and Carlton have...

    Lost: Season Six

    Yes. IIRC, someone mentioned that in fact, this person did serve as an intern for a brief period of time, but had no contact with the show after season two or season three... EDIT - - Oops! Neil beat me to it.

    Lost: Season Six

    I watched season six of Lost via an iTunes season pass. The full program length (no commercials on iTunes) is 1:45:39. That means during the original 2.5 hour broadcast, ABC aired roughly 45 minutes of commercials. My guess is they simply cut down on the number of ads scheduled for the rebroadcast.

    Not to mention that from a content standpoint, he (or she) is flat-out wrong... So, when exactly in season one did we see Juliet, Penny, Bernard and Desmond?

    Lost: Season Six

    I always respect and enjoy reading your thoughtful, insightful comments about Lost. I definitely understand where you're coming from, and in point of fact, I am one of those folks who was complaining (loudly) leading up to the finale. My main concern was that the way it was being set up, it...

    Lost: Season Six

    I'm late to the party as a result of my iTunes season pass thing...but, I have to say WOW! Awesome ending! I really loved it! I'd still like a bit of closure with regards to a few island mysteries, but knowing they'll most likely be addressed on the Blu-ray or in the Lost Encyclopedia, it's fine...

    Lost: Season Six

    Thank you! I hoped someone would mention this particular aspect of the season six story line. There has been so much (mostly negative) chatter about "Across the Sea", it seems everyone completely forgot about the temple arc. Then again, that may be the reason "Across the Sea" exists at all...

    Lost: Season Six

    I totally get that, Josh. My disappointment doesn't stem from that part of the equation. Rather, the way it went down, Frank's sole reason for still being on the island turned out to be the most obvious one, and since this is Lost, I guess I was hoping for something a bit more...challenging. I...

    Lost: Season Six

    I have to watch this episode again since it left me feeling a bit ambivalent. As we get closer to the finale, it seems more and more likely to me that this is all going to boil down to a simple battle (or contest) of good versus evil, and to be honest, I am not sure how I feel about that. I...

    Lost: Season Six

    If we're going to have a rerun, then Ab Aeterno is a good choice since it is the closest thing we have to a stand-alone episode this season. On the plus side, it is one of the most beautifully shot and well-acted episodes of the entire series. As always, YMMV, but I can easily sit through this...

    Not to respond to my own post or anything, but I just stumbled upon the new Doc Jensen column at EW.com and did a double-take when I read the following...

    Lost: Season Six

    It is often difficult to determine 'tone' in the written word, and especially on a board like this, Jeff, but I did not detect any negativity in your original post to me and I certainly was not directing any towards you in my reply.

    Lost: Season Six

    I never said it was a great answer, Jeff, rather it is simply THE answer according to D&C. I don't frequent their podcasts all the time, but I have heard enough of them to know they will very often answer viewer questions with cagey, non-answer answers. This was different. They were very direct...

    Lost: Season Six

    Damon and Carlton also said that after the finale on the 23rd, they will not be talking publicly about the series for "some time" (whatever that means) because they want the show to "speak for itself". They will be on the Jimmy Kimmel special that immediately follows the finale, but it will be a...

    Lost: Season Six

    In the latest Official Lost Audio Podcast, Damon and Carlton confirm that what Hurley deduces about the whispers is exactly correct. In fact, they make sort of a big deal about it and acknowledge that explaining the source of the whispers is one of the "big" island mysteries they knew they had...

    Lost: Season Six

    You may be right, Tony. Perhaps I overreacted. Based on what we've learned about the stuff, whenever I see a Lostie with Black Rock dynamite, I expect it to go off... The only question in my mind is WHEN it will happen. That's why when Richard and Jack had their showdown in the ship, it...

    Lost: Season Six

    Sheesh! Excuse me for making an honest mistake that Joe corrected me on and one post later, I thanked him for it! I re-watched the episode earlier today and Hurley's "warning" is weak at best, which is why I don't think it registered with me in the first place. Hurley says, and I quote... And...

    Lost: Season Six

    I read somewhere that the book in question is "Notes From The Underground" which is an early (if not the first) existentialist novel.

    Whoops! Thanks for that, Joe. Like I said, I have to watch it again. My iTunes season pass notification never came through until late last night (around 11:30 p.m. my time) so, I was pretty bleary-eyed by the time I watched it. It's 10 a.m. Thursday where I am right now...

    Lost: Season Six

    Another fascinating episode...perhaps a bit heavy on the existentialism...but fascinating nonetheless. I have to watch it again, but there were a few reveals that I think will shortly come into play in a big way. Hurley snagging the pouch with Jacob's ashes has to be important - - the fact he...

    In fact, that has to have been the LONGEST uninterrupted flashback ever in a Lost episode, no?
