Lost

it looks like it could be the best season yet!

I have to say, I'm rather disappointed with that episode. Just the fact that there were commercials every 10 minutes annoyed the hell out of me.
I had to DVR it, since I was out playing ball...and yes, it seemed like everytime they got into something, another damn commercial popped up.

Best exchange was between Mr. Friendly/Zeke/Tom and Sawyer:
T - "I see you got yourself a fish biscuit"
S - "Yeah, I finally figured out your contraption"
T - "It only took the Bears 2 hours to figure it out"
S - "Yeah...how many"

it was pretty good. I hope they don't take the show into some "what's really real" scenario, which is a possibility right now. that'd be a waste, especially with their production budget.

That's exactly the same thing I said t a coworker. There wasn't any flow to the episode. I feel like they threw it together or something.

I thought that was interesting too because it seemed like they were trying to give Jack the impression that they came to the island after the Dharma project and just sort of took over the facilities. However, if that were the case, how would he know how long it took the bears to figure it out?

I thought it was decent, not great though. Looks like The Nine might be a good show following it as well.

Back to Lost though, I thought there was something really about Henry Gale (Ben) sitting down for breakfast with Kate

i read an interview with the actor. He was saying that he doesn't really know much about the character yet because he was originally only supposed to be in 3 episodes but that he is more than likely a psychiatrist. I think that would explain a lot about him.

It probably won't get better, so in addition to watching it on air, I may just start watching it online the next day, as it's pieced together much better.

I also wonder where the teenager in the other cage came from, and then what they ended up doing with him...

That is somewhat disappointing as it indicates they don't have a grand plan for the show. If he was only supposed to be on 3 eps and now is the leader of the Others then they are clearly making it up as they go along. That seems like it could lead to the show not being as interesting.

They've been doing that sort of thing since hte beginning, I think. I've heard that Hurley and Sun's characters were basically written specifically for the actors after he was spotted on another show and she unsuccessfully tried out for another role.
Also, just go back to last season when they had problems with Ana Lucia and Libby wanted to go star in another show (which was never picked up). In fact, you can say the same with Shannon and Michael; they're pretty much gone because they wanted to do movies, or so I've heard.


PS- I have a coworker who's obessed with the message boards and they talk about Lost on EITM all the time. Plus, I'm a nerd.

well, ana lucia was supposed to be on much longer, but the actress turned out to be a royall PitA, so they dragged her out and shot her. homicide did the same thing. the problem with homicide is they kept replacing the people that left (actors and writers) with lesser talent, so the last 2 seasons were completely worthless.
