Here’s hoping you’re not expecting this post to be too coherent. There’s no getting around it. We are having a mighty tough time writing this review. Like the episode itself, our reactions to it are somewhat hard to quantify. Don’t get us wrong; that was a very...

YES! THANK YOU, LOST WRITERS! Unlike seemingly everyone else on the internet who writes about this show (seriously, if we read one more “Questions Lost Needs to Answer” article we’re going to gouge our eyes out) we really don’t have a shopping list of requirements to...

Okay, maybe it’s just us. We don’t claim to speak for anyone else when we say, “…the HELL?” In fact, we’re going to put our (fractured) thoughts out there in this post and for once, we have absolutely no idea how they’re going to be received....

Faith and Begorrah! There’s a fucking bomb on this sub! If you’re just not quite ready to stop talking about this week’s Lost – and really, why would you be? – and if you’re some sort of weird stalker dying to know what T or Lo sound like, well, wish...

To paraphrase those great philosophers, Salt and Pepa, let’s talk about death. It’s common when commenting on long-running shows to assign characteristics to ideas and places, e.g., “Manhattan is the 5th character on Sex and the City.” While it’s probably...

Okay kids, a lot happened last night and we were all over the map (literally) so forgive the scattershot approach. We’ll do our best to hold off incoherency as long as we can but you’ve got to meet us halfway. Ready? Then we’ll begin.  We’re not saying anything...

Before we start, we just want to say that every week when we finish writing this post, the last thing we do before hitting “Publish” is type in the title and each time, we note with a pang the number after “E” ticking up, reminding us that we’re that much closer...

We have to say, this episode’s return to full-on science fiction was a huge relief after being bombarded with so much mystical mumbo-jumbo this season. Sure, the conflict between Jacob and Smokey is intriguing, but like seemingly a lot of the viewers, we’d be pissed if the entire...

Okay seriously, Lost people. We’ve been cheerleading all season, constantly saying “We KNOW they have a plan” and “It’ll ALL pay off in the end” but come ON. As this episode wound down last night and there were only a few minutes left, we sat there stewing...

To be perfectly honest, we had to watch this one twice just to decide if we liked it or not. For this episode, we had what you shouldn’t have with this show: expectations. Oh sure, you should expect to be entertained, you should expect a certain level of writing, directing, acting,...

When we were first inducted into the world of Lost-mania, those who preceded us, especially those of the female persuasion, upon hearing of our newfound obsession would excitedly ask, “So…Jack or Sawyer?” It was a question we always laughed off because it’s so...

We didn’t think it was possible, but Ben Linus made us cry last night. We’ve been frustrated all season regarding the fate and the actions of two characters. Sun, who has now spent close to a dozen episodes standing around wondering what’s going on and not doing anything,...

Just before this episode aired, we were sitting around talking about the show and came to the conclusion that everything that’s happened so far this season is prelude to a much different story and that the Temple and its denizens were probably going to go away soon because we...

We had a brilliant idea yesterday. Okay, so it wasn’t exactly brilliant but we do like to tell ourselves that all our ideas are brilliant. Here’s what: Since the show’s creators have been saying that this final season owes an awful lot to the first season of the show, and...

We’ve always maintained there was a certain brilliance to how Lost was put together in such a way as to gain the widest possible audience. Like we said last week, if it was just a sci-fi adventure show, it would never have gained the audience it has. By populating it with heavily...

Part of the success of Lost is that the writers wisely give the fans not what they want, but what they need. The result is that the viewers are constantly in a state of wanting, so they keep coming back for more. Upon first viewing, this episode came across as a slight disappointment after...

Okay, if our viewing experience of last night’s two-part premiere could be summed up in a sound effect, it would be “SQUEEEEEEE!” If it could be summed up in a facial expression, it would be a shit-eating grin. If it could be summed up in textspeak it would be “OMGLOL...

Well, last night’s 2-part season finale was a tense, exciting, emotional roller coaster ride that delved deep into the Lost mythology, answered a lot of questions while opening up new ones, and gave almost all the major players some great character moments. We enjoyed the hell out of...

Just so we’re all on the same page…Sayid and Jack are traipsing through the 1977 jungle with Eloise Hawkings and Richard Alpert; Sawyer, Kate and Juliet are in a sub heading off of 1977 island where they will presumably recreate Three’s Company off in the ’70s...

Was that a fucking awesome episode or what? When Kate, Jack, and Daniel were traipsing through the jungle, we said “FINALLY. THAT’S what we’ve been missing for so long!” We don’t watch Lost so we can see a bunch of people living in ’70s suburbia, for...

Gotta love that episode title, a tip of the hat to the hardcore nerds. Last night’s episode was an enjoyable little character-driven amuse bouche before the countdown to the fireworks of the upcoming season ender. We loved it, especially since a Miles-centric episode has been a long...
