I watched up until the last season... I'm not sure whether or not to go there with this season... what's the deal? I don't even remember clearly where we were left, aside from that flash-foward scene with jack???http://tv.yahoo.com/lost/show/36617/videos/5915715

they're sorta the same in my head.
I've never watched either one though.

Never really watched Heroes, but I'll ride for Lost. Get it on DVD and sit back with some green.
Oh, and your head is looking pretty small these days. A gift:
someone made a look alike cookie recipe and template for the fish biscuits.

Heroes sucked balls.
Lost is like the Twilight Zone, if you watch it through a smokey haze its real good fun.
Absolutely. Pretty much every series starts off slowly and I get to a point where I swear that if they don't start resolving storylines I'll stop watching. Before you know it, the main thread comes back in and I'm as hooked as ever. The last series final episode was a superb exercise in headfuckery.
I still can't figure out why in the hell Charlie had to shut himself in. Why not run out and swim up w/ Desmond?
F*cked-up and doped-up Jack is my shit. Tonight's ep should be good.
Cos everyone hates his character and was praying for him to die?
In fact I thought they did a pretty good job last season of actually almost making me care for his character before they offed him. The episode where we saw Desmond's vision of him getting speared in the neck over and over again helped I think.
It is "Lost" though so what did I expect.
Or is it One old episode and one new episode?
The girl made me promise her I'd be home promptly to watch it with her.
I wondered the same thing, but either way, it should boil down to 50 minutes of Lost, and 70 minutes of commercials.

Lost: Past, Present & Future
Thu Jan 31 10/9c
This episode explores the series in a way that will bring new viewers up to date -- but which current viewers will also find illuminating - in anticipation of the fourth season premiere episode. The special will take an in-depth look at the mysteries of both the island and its inhabitants and recap the secrets that have been revealed, as well as those that remain unanswered.
The Beginning of the End
Thu Jan 31 11/10c
Feeling that their rescue is close at hand, the survivors don't know whether to believe Charlie's final message that the people claiming to liberate them are not who they seem to be. The band of friends, family, enemies and strangers must continue to work together against the cruel weather and harsh terrain if they want to stay alive. But as they have discovered during their 70-plus days on the island, danger and mystery loom behind every corner, and those they thought could be trusted may turn against them. Even heroes have secrets...
Was anyone as surprised as I was to see Cedric M'fing Daniels on this episode?
No doubt. I bet we see that character again this season.
I actually yelled out "cedric".....
So, what did people think? I am intrigued by the Oceanic 6 and the splitting of the parties and Hurley's saying it was a mistake to split. I am nowhere near as interested in this show as I was with the first season and beginning of the second.
The writing seems more assured than early last season and has been so since mid-last year. Season 4 should be cool.
Part of the reason for the disenchantment might be the overly gratuitous marketing associated w/ the show, but it's still good weeknight escapism.
Jack
Kate
Hurley
Sawyer? (Kate needs to get back to him)
Ben (was he in the coffin?) ?
?
So who is still "alive" on the island (in present times)? Locke?
This season is gonna be super revealing. I can't wait to find about the crew from the boat....
Oh, god, I don't see Ben going out like that. Plus, he wasn't a passenger on 815 so I don't see him being included in the Oceanic Six, unless he assumes the identity of someone on the plane. My guess is claire (+Aaron), but it's tough to say beyond that. My head is literally spinning from that episode, too much to process at this point. The producers have definitely made a statement--they're going to reveal shit but fuck with the viewers plenty along the way.
Lance Reddick's appearance was definitely a 3-way fanboy boner for me. I kept calling him Desmond (after his character in Oz) much to my wife's chagrin, as she kept yelling Daniels.
edit: I'd make a new post but I'm 1 away from 2K so I need to save it, but this has had me rolling all day:
also i dont think ben is in the casket because jack was all messed up over it and i dont think he would be. he hates ben. i think its juliet. he cares about her but kate could give a shit. who knows though?
also, yall probably have seen this but the wife made me read it this morning and i thought id share.

its a review from someone who had a ton of ideas of how the island is what it is blah blah blah.
Calmer than you are dude. Calmer than you are.
I was also pleased with the whole flash forward again - wouldn't mind if they wanted to keep that going for some time.
