"2-28 episode" |
LAST EDITED ON 03-01-07 AT 04:24 PM (EST)Well, tonight, to continue our awesome ever-changing weather, we had tornadoes! All around us, all night. Needless to say, we did not see Lost, but Frodis suggested in the bar that I could still start the thread. I concurred, and here I am. *waves to Frodis* Most likely I'll have to download the epi from itunes tomorrow. I have tried to watch on abc.com several times and it always freezes about half way through, and I end up downloading it anyway. My local TV station was apologizing all over the place while they pre-empted the show, they kept saying they would show the episode in it's entirety later on..and then it switched to maybe tomorrow they'll show it....and then finally they didn't know when they would show it but they would. So, y'all can fill me in!!

It was a nice episode getting back to the original characters. No Jack made it even more enjoyable for me. It was like I was back watching the first couple seasons when I still enjoyed this show.

I have to agree CTGirl that it was a welcomed change. We watch "Survivor" for the strategy and the surprises but sometimes we get "Billy's elimination", "The witch is dead", "Chris is full of BS" or "My grandma is dead" episode and those funny episodes stick out.That was "Lost" last night. I laughed all the way through at Sawyer toasting with dead Roger, Hurley slapping Charlie out of his funk, Jin learning that: "I'm sorry", "You are right" and "You don't look fat in those pants" were the only thing he needed to learn to talk to a woman!! (I imagined that the oriental woman interviewing Hurley could've been chosen to represent Julie Chen. Even the meteorite was fun to see! STEE-rike!) The funniest moment was when the van finally started and we had Three dog nights' "On the road to Shambhala" on the radio: "I can tell my sister 'bout the flowers in her eyes
On the road to Shambala
I can tell my brother 'bout the flowers in his eyes
On the road to Shambala How does your light shine
In the halls of Shambala
How does your light shine
In the halls of Shambala" Talk about a Hippy van! With that laughter, the final scene brought it all back and promises some interesting developments.

LAST EDITED ON 03-01-07 AT 09:20 AM (EST)Fantastic episode...!! This is what makes Lost a great show. So many one-liners, it's hard to choose the best. Though I did enjoy Hurley trying to come back on Sawyer - " Red..neck...guy" I also enjoyed the "ignorance is bliss" smile on Jin's face when Hurley was recruiting people to come help. He totally looked like he had no idea what he was signing up for. I also was waiting to hear him tell Sun the three things needed to talk to a woman when they returned. We get to see Patches O'Toole next week, and John causes another issue by messing with a computer...how about we take the keyboards away from him?

LAST EDITED ON 03-01-07 AT 01:22 PM (EST)I sort of agree...I didn't think it was a great episode (I loved Desmond's a few weeks ago) but it wasn't bad either. I like Hurley and I agree with others that we needed a little levity.. But KATE omh...she is so self righteous and sanctimonious...I'm glad Sawyer didn't apologize...I say (*)^%*&%^ Jack ... does byoffer post here...

I think I am on a different page than everyone. I did not think was such a great episode. I like Hurley but I just felt it added nothing to the overall "mystery" of the show. Are we back to the numbers now? Did we need to see why he ate so much? Have we learned why he was in the institution yet? Yeah we get it...more daddy issues. I did like the episode but maybe not for this season. I know I am in the minority too but Sawyer is just not working for me anymore. I know we are supposed to be loving him but I'm not. It's too easy. He is being written very one dimensional now. I can compare the Jack/Sawyer/Kate triangle(and not even as a romantic one) like Star Wars with Sawyer being the Han Solo character. I know that liking Jack is very unpopular.
From the beginning I did not care for Jack and still don't really, but his character is intersting to me. He seems to have more behind him or more layers. I like the storyline with the Others and what role Jack is going to play with them. Is this the split of two groups that we heard about a long time ago?

I agree that people thinks it's cool to bash Jack. I happen to like him.Unfortunately, I'm afraid people are going to start thinking it's cool to be a LOST-basher as well. I'm not calling anyone out on that, just making an observation  I think it's perfectly fine to throw in a episode here and there that doesn't "answer life's big mysteries". I think Hurley said it best, last night - "We haven't had much fun lately". We did find out that Rousseau has learned her daughter is probably alive...

Zombs, I lvoe you, but I couldn't disagree more.I find Sawyer to be an incredibly complex and interesting character, full of surprises. This guy has so many layers, I don't think anyone could ever peel all of them back. And the hints we do get of what is underneath I find incredibly vulnerable, touching, and intelligent. Jack is just the opposite to me. He strikes me as a massively self-centered and egotistical jerk with a messiah complex. He likes to think of himself as all mysterious and complicated, but I don't see him that way. The more they show me of him, the less I like him and the less interesting he is. And the whole Others thing just bores me to tears. I don't care about them and I don't care about what happens in their world. I keep hoping that I'll find something interesting in this story line and there have been hints (which have gone nowhere so far) that it is all significant. But, so far, I haven't seen anything that makes me feel invested in that whole thing. I prefer the beach Losties, hands down. I was so glad for this episode because, finally, the characters I care about and who I invested 2 years of viewing and obsessing about were finally on the screen. And I thought the last 10 minutes of the show was brilliant. The episode reintroduced us to some best-loved characters interacting wonderfully and then slammed us at the end with some real forward movement in the plot and some great character development for Sawyer. I found it satisfactory in every way.  
And, I admit, no Jack or Others made it very enjoyable for me. *shrugs* It just doesn't interest me. Perhaps further developments will change my mind, but I'm not into it yet after all this time.

We'll just have to agree to disagree. To me we are supposed to like Sawyer and he is easy to like. I agree completely with how you describe Jack...self-centered, egotistical and a messiah complex. He is very hard to like and that is why he is intriguing to me, especially for a protagonist in a show. I still am not sure if Jack is one of the "good guys" or one of the "bad guys". It is very ambiguous. As for Sawyer he appears to me as a con man who deep down just wants to be loved. Seen it before. But as you say, things could change. I don't dislike him, just find him a cardboard character so far.

The nice thing about Lost is that it is a show of many faces and themes all rolled up into one. I happen to prefer the more "mystery" oriented incarnations, but this one was interesting, although not in the typically exhilarating way of Lost like in the Desmond episode. Anyway, too much of the same thing becomes a bore. This was inventive and something different. It still felt a bit like falling action though after the reunion on the beach. The one cast member being missing and a need to reunite the whole group is getting a bit played out though. I mean, if Jack made it back, then there wouldn't be much driving the story. Neither can the others and the losties reconcile, because the others have a way to get home, and the show would basically end, since they'd send the losties on their way, unless of course locke, kate, or rose destroyed the boats. anyway, a little human drama was cool, and now there's a hippie van on the island. maybe they can make use of it somehow, although once that tank of gas is out, that's the end of the van
