Also, we've been led to believe that the island has "healing powers" a la Locke's ability to walk, Rose's cancer in supposed remission, etc. So why would Ben's tumor not be effected? Maybe since it probably developed while he was on the island? Exactly what I was thinking when the whole "tumor" thing came up. And add in Sun getting pregnant since being on the island, her infertility problem cured.
At first I thought maybe the Others were messing with Jack & the xray was old and before the island fixed Ben. Now I just think the writers keep forgetting what the heck they wrote in the past with all their jumping around.
This show is getting on my nerves. Killing off Ecko so soon & too much Jack & the "Others." This season is ridiculous & I wish they'd go back to the basics & deal with the Losties & their back stories & what their plan is now with their situation.
I'll be watching to see who the next actor is to get arrested on a driving charge in Hawaii. Seems to me that is the real reason they are killing off these people. The brief third-party article re Ecko wanting to be off the show doesn't wash with me.
Lost is losing it's luster with me. The fact that I DVR it & don't get around to watching it for a few days rather than ASAP like before is telling for me. Sure hope this season turns around soon.
