Is anyone else watching this series?
I love the show, but they need to cut back on the lengthy last episode recaps, and get some more content, and like scrubs and the sopranos with long breaks, this show decided to take a 3 week hiatus.
Anyone else completed fixated on this show or am I the only one?
No, I too am completely fixated on the show; but I completely agree about the show recaps. The last episode was almost in danger of being a complete recap show..........
In season 3, I think they're going to make the shows 2 hours long, so that they can devote the first hour to recapping everything previously 
Damm right, best series I've ever watched
but it getting to long
all the things shown in 24 episodes of season 01 could be fitted in like 10 episodes
sometimes its getting really anyoying when u watch whole episode (specialy begining od 2 season) and action goes only few minutes forward, noething new happends
of course when finaly something is going to happen its the end of episode 
(
and u wait another week thinking about nothing else
i just hope it wont be like startrek, 7 seasons 
)
i hope they will finish entire story in 3 season I wanted to strangle people when they did the two hatch episodes, like I needed to see the same episode from two angles.
It can be a little dragged out, but I'll be happy watching this for a long time. I mean, if they give everything away really quick, the show would get cancelled fast. Right now, they can go for several seasons, instead of a quick wrap-up.
(@MODERATORS this should probably be merged with the other topic thats on the next page I think)
I always watch Lost BEFORE 
But I don't watch it now,
because I think it is a bit long...... I'm fascinated with all of the external additions to the actual show like the websites they've made and the hidden information in each show, hints as to what might come.
I've always said Blair Witch project made the mistake of not thinking the audience would pay attention, imagine how much scarier the movie would have been if instead of them flinging the camera around because "they" hear something, what if during normal shooting, they accidentally catch a clip of someone or something watching them, moving through in the background. Not part of the main action but subtly behind it.
what does this mean?

I totally agree. I was so mad when they showed the same episode twice from a different point of view. And does anyone know why they decided to take 2 weeks off and play reruns?Thanks Noob, I love all the google and yahoo map hacks, they removed it now, but Yahoo had googles main offices listed as a fish store, they even created a small website for it.

As far as Lost goes, new show tonight, one of the characters gets killed, tons of hype...should be a good episode. | hrdfarkr wrote: |

Yeah, it looks like it'll be good. I think Sawyer might be the one that dies only because they hint at it in the episode description. I hope he doesn't though becuase he's a good character (especially his comments and nicknames).I'm putting my money on Shannon dying... She doesn't really have a strong storyline now that her brother is gone and Sayid has more interesting things to do.
I AGREE THEY WASTE SO MUCH TIME RECAPPING LAST PROGRAM. ARE THEY ASSUMING ALL ARE NEWBIES TO THE SHOW, IT DRIVES ME CRAZY. BUT IT IS ONE OF THREE SHOWS I WATCH DEVOTEDLY.
The recaps don't bother me as much as they bother other people. But that's just because the recaps keep me from having to explain everything that's goin on to my wife. But she's getting hooked, now, as well, so maybe we'll start getting irritated at the recaps.
SPOILERS
So looks like Shannon does die. Last weeks episode was a nice way to do something diferent, showing all 40 some days from the tail survivors side. The previews make it look like they aren't going to be getting along (Looks like Ana Lucia is still shooting people).
Will someone tell me what will happen on the last episode of season 1? (you know, that small part after that ladies baby got took away by the french woman)
I can't watch it next week here in Singapore.
The show is now being broadcasted here in Belgium. But I'm waiting for the dvd-box to watch the series. Too much commercials during the episodes. Anyone know if there is going to be a third series of "Lost"?
im watching it,
but here in england we are only on season one!
(dont tell me what happens!)
its really good what i've watched so far (15th episode?)
yeah, anyways, looking forward to the rest!
there are rather a few too many adverts though, but its still good

I thought the producers said they are planning on at least 5 seasons now. So I would say definately 3, but I'm sure it will last as long as the ratings do.I've watched first and all the episodes of the second season and, although now is improving as long as the episodes are broadcasted, I must say that I still prefer the first season by far.
The beginiing of the second season dissapointed me a little. I hope it continues improving as now is starting to do.
Without giving anything away to our dear friends from other countries, the show got very slow in the beginning of the second season, I think they are doing a good job of making up for it.

It only started off slow in the amount of time that passed in each episode. The new mysteries were pretty good to keep me occupied though so I don't think it started too slow.
EDIT: so today I just got 5 of my friends hooked on the show.Bump: Tonight the episode is what kate did. It looks pretty interesting. I really can't wait.
EDIT:
Spoilers*
Wow, so the computers can communicate? And what was Michael doing messing around with it? And is it really Walt on the other side? Why would he be on the computer? And that cut out part of the tape was weird, who cut it and why? So many new things that are now unanswerd...
Wow, I really shouldn't have read those spoilers :p
The first season is coming to an end here in Belgium, but I've been following the American episodes by downloading them. Unfortunately, I'm an my uni network, which has a 5GB limit which, I'm very close too Wednesdays episode was really amazing! Yeah, I cant wait to find out what happens with the computer. I think it really is Walt, but man, Im too excited to find out what happens then to think about it!
Too bad we're now on a break till January with Lost. That was a bug cliffhanger to just leave for over a month.
Oh well, now my friends can get caught up I guess.
I had been out of the country while the first season and start of the 2nd season were on the air. Was able to get my habds on all the episodes at once. Let me tell you my butt was sore after that extended session of watching LOST. Pretty wicked show for being on cable.
What happened at the end of the latest episode? I didn't get to see it. I saw up until they were going to watch the new tape. Then my recording cut off...D'oh!
it think it's become a trend now...everyone watches lost....last week i heard it was racking up almost a billion viewers world-wide!
oh my god, Lost is the best series i've ever seen ! i just bought the first season dvd and i am enjoying day after day seeing what will be happening to jack and Locke! Well ... i'd love to get ABC to see the new episods of the second season
alot of my friends watch it so i might see what its like because they all like it 
| picsite wrote: |

Yes, it seems to be getting more and more popular.Has anyone tried downloading the episodes to the video iPod? They look pretty good if you can handle small screens...
i'vr downloaded them to, it is kind of small, but at least, it is lost :d
does anyone know when the nes season starts in the US (or resumes?)

Supossidly 1/11Unforyunately just missed the final episode. I like it very much and so I highly want to see the climax. No DVD available here (in India) for hire as of now. I am waiting for it.
If you want to see it, you can just download it. The internet is full of the episodes of lost. If you are lucky, you can have it in 15 minutes
If you have a fast connection that is...
Anyways, indeed it is the best series there is. I watched it on cable in México, and I had to chose between 24 and LOST. 24 used to be my favorit, but since I first saw LOST I cannot stop watching it. Though in internet it is better, because there are no commercials! Did anyone see that on the last episode "What Kate Did" that Sayid was on TV when Kate was in her dad's Army Recruiting office for a split second. It looks like he was a military prisonor or something. I saw a screenshot of it somewhere but now I can't find it...
TV Guide has a few shots like that this week. Sayid on Kate's Dad's tv, Hurley on a TV on Korea where Jin walks in as Hurley is shown as a lottery winner, Hurley drinks milk with Walt as a missing kid on it.
I love the storyline but I hope they don't stretch is for too long.
Damm right, best series I've ever watched

I remember reading somewhere that its actually signed for at least 5 yrs.

That sounds realistic actually. I know this makes a lot of people mad, the way its so dragged out; well I think it's pretty cool that I could still be watching this show in 4-5 years.personally i'm loving it.
HI I'm new here.
I begin with my first post here about lost cause I'm really into that serie now.
The storyline, characters, drama and everything is good.
My favorite characters are: Hurley, jack, kate and michael.
Can't wait till the 11. i have only seen lost once and it was really good. the idea was great but the use of graphics i thought was quite poor..
i like this show and am looking forward to watching it tonight but i wouldnt call it a number one favourite
Finally we had a new episode. I think it was pretty good but next week looks like it will be a lot better.

Spoilers from last night
Anyone actually think walt is talking on the computer? I think its a set up.
no no No, I too am completely fixated on the show; but I completely agree about the show recaps. The last episode was almost in danger of being a complete recap show..........
In season 3, I think they're going to make the shows 2 hours long, so that they can devote the first hour to recapping everything previously
THe series is actually different compared to other ""HEELLLLP!!! I am stranded on an island"", type of scenario.
It is actually - i think - showing the way people learn to live..
and all the jazz...but truly it is addicting far beyond recognition, It is marvellous, the way of picturization and presentation.
I am still unsure whether it is a action, horror, thriller, or sci-fi series.
BUt this series i personally feel i smuch better than the TAKEN series.
Ive watched the new ep and than ran into some freaky pics...
In the smoke Eko was watching, were flashes of Eko's past...
Here are some pics... truly amazing!
<If you run it frame by frame you'll see it.>
Interesting pics of the black cloud thing. Looks like it has something to do with looking into Ecko's past.
Yes, and there are theories....
Like, people say that when Lock said he saw the most beautiful thing in the world (ep 4) he ment Hellen, which he thinks is the most beautiful thing in the world...
And that kind of explains the "I looked into this island eye" thing...
I watched lost from the very begging. It is deffently a how you need to watch closely. If you don't you will miss important clues.
How many other peopled watched from the first epidsod?
I've watched from the beginning, but the interesting thing from my perspective is the hidden clues, the logo on the shark and the plane, which is also in the shelter. The images in the cloud monster which are clearly from his past. I feel like even tho I have watched since the first episode, until I go back and watch the first season on the DVD set I just got, I won't really have seen alot of the clues.
The cloud monster is a perfect example, from the naked eye it looked like flashes of light in the cloud, until I noticed the profile of a man. I would never thought to have looked further into that cloud unless I saw the profile.
The other interesting aspect is the scenes in the back of important scenes, like Sayid being on TV when Kate is confronting her father. Those also fly past your eye when you are watching, now i'm watching like a hawk hoping to not miss them.
SPOILERS AHEAD!!!
Wow, what an excellent episode, Jack getting deep into a God complex after his wife's miracle surgery, is brought back down to earth by losing a patient and cheating on his wife only to be further kicked while he is down by finding out she cheated on him.
Who is his wife's boyfriend, Desmond? or perhaps one of the survivors?
Alex was the name they used to bring Kate out after the encounter the others, That sounds like it's the french women's kid.
Hurley is going to hook up with Libby, and Charlie looks to be starting a breakdown. I love this show.
I noticed the faces in the black cloud also. I have TiVo and I did it frame by frame to see them.
This is def. one of the best shows I have seen in a very long time. From what I hear they have enough material for 8-9 seasons already. Granted that would only be like 3 seasons if they didn't do a 45 minute recap, ha.
Anyway it is a show that I watch pretty religiously. The only other show I make sure not to miss is Jeopardy. I'm gonna go try out for it next time it comes to Washington, DC.
let us know if you get on Jeopardy, i'm a closet fan myself....I useless bomb on one or two of the categories tho.

Good point, I'm sure they related that back to some other survivors somehow.If you live in the US, why don't you just buy a pair of bunny ears cause ABC should be a local channel.
I'm just getting into Season Two and I just can't get enough of it. I find that sometimes you can almost predict what they are about to say, and that makes the writing either really good or really bad. I'm going to say the writing is superb.
Lost is a great show. Yes, it is dragged on and does play out very slowly. However the plot is amazing. I love how the writers come up with all the connections between the characters.
so now when the others are kinda revealed who do you think they really are?
| boringest wrote: |
| so now when the others are kinda revealed who do you think they really are? |
My bet is it has to do with Darma. I mean, why is there a secret island where there used to be experiments and no one knows, probably because no one left the island. Just a thought though.I dunno, remember Desmond is there from Darma or is it DHARMA...I cant remember its too late...anyway. Desmond is from the company he and refers to the others as well. Perhaps they are the survivors of the ship that the french woman was on?
so r u all americasn and ahead of the british

I did, and I think Charlie was really being dumb. I mean, he needed some help, but then he took it too far.lost is defenently one of the most well thought and creative shows i have seen. i still dont know whats the deal with hurley not telling his friend about the lottery ticket. What do you think happened to walt? And can Jin speak english?
do you think the last ever episode will finish with them getting saved?
although it porbably won't because there is something too sinister and supernatural going on. too big and strange for them, to just get taken way on a boat. i've sort of answered my own questions but what do you think.
p.s. LOCKE RULES!

Or maybe the OTHERs have the power to get help and leave and the survivors will fight them in the end. Just a crazy theory though.read this guys, so far this seems to be the most likely theory to explain the whole show!

read it! Just finished watching S 2 ep 12. It is amazing, though I was wondering what happened to whatjack asked andalucia at the end of ep 12 about the army? It would be seriously cool if it would happen but i have a feeling that it won't

Just remember that it is jack. He does some weird stuff. He trys to save the whole world as if he was a leader or something.LOST... i have been watching this show since the start and i must say ... nothing ever happens on this show.. besides the 100 commercials that they have every time . The show really does not tell us anything and most of the time goes backwards on what we want to know. Just watch the show and think back... what did i see tonight.. you will be able to tell the whole story in 1 sentence. I dont know why i still watch the show lol. I guess its because every week i think something will happen and of course it does not
Ahh... Lost!
Here in Sweden, we are not allowed to see the new part at the same time as in the U.S. So, I'm sad, but I cannot discuss it with you. I loved this past episode, it was so great. No the episode didn't really reveal that much about the island, but if you think about it has ANY episode ever revealed that much about the island? No, most new episodes just pose more questions to confuse the viewer. That is my main problem with the show, they never answer these wierd puzzles that they leave you. Not that I don't understand the show, or because I am too dumb to figure them out, but I would like some closure or at least a half assed explanation.
What the hell is up with the polar bear from the first season? what was the deal with the Australian guy that was originally in the hatch, then took off when the survivors showed up? Why was it important that Jack knew him from before the crash? What the hell is the deal with Locke when his eyes go all wierd every once in a while? How did nobody die in the plane crash? A couple people died after the crash, but not as a cause of the crash itself. How does Walt communicate with Michael on the computer? I didn't know AIM ran in DOS. Why the hell does Walt appear to random people and speak backwards? Why the hell did they kill off Shannon? She was hot, even if she did the dirty with her step brother.
The only question they have ever really answered was why Kate was with the marshall on the plane.
Now we have Charlie's hallucinations, whether or not Charlie is using again or no, and why Locke did not destroy the heroine. Three more wierd things to deal with and still no answers to even some of the seemingly insignificant mysteries, such as how people can honestly think Anna Lucia is good looking.
Me too, its a great programme. I've missed several episodes so I guess I'll have to buy the DVDs.
Are they really going to make a season 3 as well?
I have heard that the creators originally planned to make just one season, but that they got so many new ideas and stuff, that they had to make more seasons. Can anyone confirm this?
i fReAKiNg love it too. it's an addiction. really awesome show, just like 'The 4400s'
Few people mantioned the fact that they have matirial for planty of seasons...
Well, the producers said that if the show gets cancelled, they'll put a joog
and he will just tell us everything there is to know about the island.
I heard, just a rumor, that its gonna have a funny voice +accent. LoL
I think they are just going end the show so we will all be LOST for the rest of our lifes and never know about the island.
Ya I like lost I watch it every Wednesday. I heard it going to be alot of seasons I dont know if is true or not. But I just was hoping that it ends because I dont feel like watching it all of this time just to figure out what the whole thing about. But the only two shows I really watch is Lost and Prison Break and Prison Break is like the same it shows and then stops for a while but now its not going to be comming back into Feburary something or March.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am sorry but NOTHING that those guys from lost can write will ever top the greatest show of all time.
24
That's right baby! 24 will kick the holy mushrooms out of any show like that. Why? I'll tell you why, it's because of Mr. Jack Bauer. He's a proper well designed action hero with a proper supporting cast. The way it's meant to be.
Jack Bauers' rice krispies make no noise. Snap, crackle and pop were too noisy for him to complete his breakfast mission.
He is the don. Don't mess with him or you will end up in a body bag. Season 5 is upon us, and I know that it's going to be superb!
Hurrah for 24!!
Katzung
In Australia we have had to wait like 4 months for the return !
Whats the deal with the army. They tell you nothing in it.
But I guess that is what made lost.
A truly amazing show from a brilliant creative team. Great stories, great characters. Love every minute of it.
wow, the podcasts from the abc site are pretty good. They have some good info mixed in there.
lost is great . but it was even better when started. i was expecting it to be more of a reality based show instead of a monster movie like show. all about the island's defence system etc... was totally spoofy. although the show is presented exelently , it would have been better to write an actually good script like robinson crusoe.
Very nice theories 
. Thanks for the link, boringest i watching this very good serie.. my favorite is MADlady
I dunno. I really don't think that is what the story is about. It makes sense, but, it just dosen't fit nicely with the show for me. There seems to be much more going on for it to just be what the post said. Excellent link, and one of the best well defined theories i've seen.
like a good book that you cant finish
It's scarey, they say they have enough material for like 5 yrs.
This isn't Gilligans Island where we know whats going on, if I have to wait five years I might crash a plane into an island just to figure it out myself.
Television is the opiate of the masses!
My grandma calls it the "idiot box" and nowadays I'm beginning to trust her judgement.
Lost is THE BESTEST ever series EVER produced!
In Ireland we've just started the Second Series.
the opening episode has me hooked again.
I can't wait for tonight's epsiode, although I must admit I am getting seriously annoyed at how many people are down on Charlie. Everyone else has been allowed to have their complete breakdown and big stupid moment and yet Charlie is the only one who gets completely judged and abused for his. At least his didn't get anyone killed (Locke, Ana Lucia, the french woman etc). He is also the first one whose mental breakdown was based on the thought that he was helping someone else. Everyone elses little moments have been very selfish and personal. Charlie was concerned about the baby.
Hmmm...
I have a game, everyone writes 3 Q he would have asked the creators, if he had met them. (assuming they'll answer everything.)
I'll begin,
1. what is the monster?
2. what happens if you don't push the button?
3. do you have answers, logicly posible answers to everything?
Lost is an amazing show. And I haven't even seen any of season 2 yet.
1. what is the monster?
your worst fears
2. what happens if you don't push the button?
we find out next week appearently
3. do you have answers, logicly posible answers to everything?
hell no
1. How long can we expect the show to last realistically?
2. Will we ever see flashbacks which tell the story of the Black Rock?
3. Can I be on the show?
Lost really does own! its such a great story.. but it really tricked me because i thought it wuz gunna b all about survival but then it started gettin really strange.. | hrdfarkr wrote: |

Sounds like they've got a few more years at the least.Sorry to double post but who saw last night's episode?
SPOILERS
At first I thought that army general was Zeke from the island. His voice was similar but I guess it was Kate's dad. Who else thinks that guy they caught is an other? I do. Anyone know what those symbols on the timer were? That was wierd. Next week should be interesting, finding out about when Claire was taken.
Did you catch the guy in the back of the truck is Kate's father?
Also, I think the balloon guy is an Other...its just to convenient that he suddenly shows up.
what a good programme it is!!!!!
i love this very much~~
do you love it?
that's where i am.
i'm in the uk so season 2 hasn't started here on tv yest, but i'm downloading.
i don't know about this one. it's obviously nowhere near six feet under or sopranos, it's full of ridiculous story lines and events, but it still grips.
the thought that they are planning to make 6-7 seasons is quite depressing though.
I'm completely obsessed with Lost. Has anyone seen episodes 13/14 of the 2nd series yet. I'm dying to know what happens?
Things are getting good!
Samuel
Unfortunately i saw only the last 3 episodes from the first session
but its realy good but i don't likt that many poeple dies in this movie
I hope they will return home safe | Apocalypse wrote: |

Even if it does end like that we've got a good 3-4 seasons more to wait to find out. Still it's a pretty great show.Does anyone have any aideas what the whole meaning behind lost is?
I heard people comparing it to pergatory or something!
Any ideas?
The first time i start watching a show such as Lost I tell myself this is great I must start following this series.
But as the story continuous it becomes more of a 'as the word turns' everything which is said and done is being milked. What I mean is that everything takes impossible turnings the outcome is tragic but the will recover. Sometimes I just wonder how they came up with this stuff
You're right. Lost is one of the best series ever. Not as thrilling as 24 in my opinion but a very good entertainment. What is quite annoying in lost is all the open questions which are never answered. But a good information platform is www.lostpedia.com . There you got all the answers of all your questions. Attention, there might be spoilers... I agree, it is a very awesome show, but the writing has gone to crap. I remeber hearing a while back that the writers do not have any more ideas about "the numbers." Also, the episodes seemed to be dragged out, you do not learn anything about the story. I doubt there will be a 3rd season. But damn is it a good show!! Lol. I remeber I downloaded the entire 1st season and me and a couple friends made like 50 muffins and just got high and watched them all while eating said muffins.
It is a great show. If you missed a past episode, itunes has them for $2, typical show runs around :43, it would be close to :48 without the recaps.
Re: 3 seasons . . .
On the 'extras' CD of the pilot, they interviewed the staff. I believe they have an outline for 6 years?
do you have any of those external links with the 'hidden information'?
January???????? good thing '24' is in stride and prison break is coming back on.
that is a very good scenario. a lot more things make sense now. is that why jack came walking out of the woods on the pilot episode?
Enyone have seen the promo?
Seems strong.
So, Clair has been taken to this weird "hospital" or whatever...
Can't wait till the ep will air.
But now, bed time.
GN
holy crap that was a great episode. I am so pissed I dont have a tivo unit. I want to go back and slow motion alot of scenes for things that I think I missed in the background.
Mr Eko and his confession was interesting, and I think both Locke and the prisoner gave away a ton of information in that little confrontation.
This week was pretty good. Really explained a lot more about the others. I'm still lovin this show.
LOST 2
All epizots
http://klok-tv.orge.pl
PO POLSKU / POLISH LANGUAGE I guess after all the info from last episode we're due for another 2 weeks of reruns...
Still this show is always getting more interesting
I do quite like Mr. Eko as a character. I'm still interested in what the deal with in respect to the trees. In 'Fire + Water' he was marking out his favourites then in 'Maternity Leave' he starts cutting them down.
He's now properly replaced Locke as the mysterious character on the Island. I hope for Locke's sake that the tantrum he threw in the Hatch was just for the benefit of Gale, because for the wisest character of season 1 to be suckered in by such a blatant mind trick would be disappointing.

I'm interested to know more about Eko and the trees too. Looks like he's building somethingThe reason the show goes into re-runs so often is it takes them 11 days to film a single episode, so occasionally the run older shows to catch up. It drives me crazy as well, but the good part is it is also one of the few shows who carry 24 new episodes every season.
How can the same bunch of people be that 'lost' on a daily basis?
I'm waiting for the 'red shirts' episode, where they focus an entire episode on all the people who aren't main characters:
Redshirt1 - "What is Jack and Lock and all the other fruitloops up to today?"
Redshirt2 - "Who's Lock?"
That was CRAZY

Ok, so my DVR cut off the last minute or so but my friend told me the end, and WOW that was important. I DEFINATLY think ana lucia, charle, and sayid are being trapped. And who thinks Sun cheated on Jin?
I think Jun got raped. Seems weird that it would just happen now. Who would be having a little bit of fun on an Island. But what would I know. I hate that it ended so soon. It was nice to finaly see a new eposiod. I definitely think the baby is someone elses. I dunno if it is cheating or rape but it should be interesting....
The preview leaves alot of open ended hopes and dreams too. Doors closing, locke diving for a closing door, what sounded like Desmond saying something. Are the balloon seekers being trapped.
Man I am psyched about this show.
I've read so many comments that just say plot this and plot that but what about the damn acting. It's not the destinations that's important but the journey.
I could care less that the plot progresses because the acting along the way is enjoyable enough.
There is no break!!!!!!! Tommorow a new ep will arrive~~~~~
SPOILER - the trailer for next ep.
Well, so, they finds the baloon, and henry escapes?! (I think he has a weapon, remember the ep where sayid is doing his thing, well he never takes the plyer out, guess he left it at henry's...)
and the clock, it gets to 00:00 and all of the gates get closed.
AMAZING- Tommorow!!!! Can Not Wait...

I agree with you about how to many people are focused about the Island plot.
The minute the writers seem to hold off on revealing something about the Island for a few weeks the majority of the fanbase seems to suddenly start complaining.
I personally watch it for the great characterisation and interplay between the characters. Sure I'm as intrigued about the Island as the next man but I'm not going to start complaining the minute they decide to delve into a characters past.I hate having to wait another whole day to see this show.
Oh man
SPOILERS
I knew Henry Gale was faking. I wonder what his role is with Dharma. I really can't wait now.

Looks awesome... I saw a picture of that map in entertainment magazine and its pretty crazy. Anyone else see it?
Here in Brazil season is initiating the 2, we are in episode 4, and already it gives to notice that this will be sensational. The personalities of the personages are vibrant as much the old ones as the news and the mysteries alone increase. They would know to say which to me is the official web page of seoson in America?
looks quite exciting, when will it air?
Does someone know if there will be a 3rd season also, would be nice looks quite exciting, when will it air?
Does someone know if there will be a 3rd season also, would be nice
The episode airs tonight on ABC at 9 pm EDT. The title of the episode is "Dave." And also, there will definately be a third season.
I think there will be like at least 5 seasons total right now. Don't know how definate that is but the producers at least are ready to go that long.
Please post what season of the show you are watching since we are all spread out around the globe.
Nice weird ending to tonights show, when I saw Libby, I was honestly stunned.
I'm also happy to see the wonderful interaction between hurley and sawyer.
can't find it
in belgium we ust started the second series YEAH that ending was crazy
SPOILER START

I'm really wondering what's up with Libby. It explains why we haven't seen her flashback yet. And next episode looks pretty good, with Jack going after the others. I can't wait
In Russia they've shown only season 1. But my friends from Moscow download season 2 and send to me. Now I have 10 episodes from the second season and I've watched four of them already. And I am a bit disappointed. The second season, imho, is much weaker than the first one. Maybe the later episodes are better...
I like LOST, but I do not like how the people in the island are becoming upset with each other. I hope they make up in the future. LOL
I think this season has moved a little slower, but it definitely has more information per episode, and more interesting little hints to everything.
I get upset when they don't comment on the hot story line I have in my head, like the door map, or the item that ecko is building (we see him marking trees and cutting them down, now this episode Charlie starts helping) but not what he is building.
Why has no one else discussed the whole trip to Claire's holding area...they walked haf way across the island.
Many unanswered questions and alot of upcoming interesting new twists, the previews show Jack calling out the other for a trade for Henry Gale....but we still aren't sure who he is.
I dunno, its quite possible it might just be continuity issues. Its not like the producers thought that the world would be freeze framing every second of the show.
On the other hand, weirder facts have come out from freeze frames.
The Lost is too long I think. I'm patience but 2 series with nothing to see its kinda boring.
It's not a happy meal, the whole idea is to have a long running show with plenty of material to discuss.
This weeks episode is catching alot of heat about supposedly being boring (sorry no one found a new hatch painting this week but cmon),
lessee....
Bernard and Roses backstory is finally told
Rose was cured of cancer by the island
Rose indicates to Locke that she knows he was in a wheelchair before the crash and can walk now, and therefor will be able to heal faster.
(this opens the door for alot of curing questions...Charlie's drug habit, Sun and Jin's sudden pregnancy ability, henry's calm demeanor despite an arrow hole and a Sayid beating)
Locke finally starts drawing the map
Henry makes it clear (with his reaction) that he is happy Locke is insane about thinking the button wasn't pushed
Kate admits she saw the clothes and beard costumes
Vincent finally returned (the dog...I hear later in the season he gets his own flashback epiode)
Jake and Kate are back on again and Sawyer is out again
What more could you have wanted?

Yeah good episodem and also Micheal is back. But just to comment, we dont know that Rose had cancer specifically do we? It could have been something else. And also, I think there's a chance Sun lied to Jin, something we could find out later on. I'm real excited though to hear Michael's story, too bad its not for another 3 weeks... | snowboardalliance wrote: |

Sun, the doctor stopped her on the street to tell her that Jin was the reason they couldn't have kids, the only other issue would be if the bald headed language teach had something to do with it, or if the island healed Jin.
As for Rose and Cancer,

They don't say what kind of cancer, but they do say cancer, and that she was in remission, and that it has returned.
Interesting side note, I found a diary link on the ABC site, and it mentions that someone on the island thinks that their brother is being held in the armory and is believed to be an other, this is getting more and more interesting. I can't tell if the site is not working or if it is my browser, but I goto
http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/diary/105866.html
in Internet Explorer and I can go back one page, in firefox I can't. In IE, I can only go back one page, and I would love to see more of this.I am/was a HUGE Lost fan, but the little action, long mysterious cut scenes are wearing thin. I am getting the feeling that the creators do not have direction other then make up strange plot lines that never get discovered. Anyone remember the smoke?
They better start getting some answers or there number one show will leave them with a mystery of why everyone stopped watching.
i am looking to lost for about a year now and i think it is really great.
somethilmes it is hard to follow, and are there really monsters on the island or how is all the things that happen possible? because i saw a fragment and of the plane just crashed, and there you can see a black shade. what is this?
is this a monster or some kind? 
Lost is probably the best tv show around. I mean how much more creative can it get. after every episode u have like 50 more questions needing to be answered. and the hurley winning the lottery and the same numbers, just wow.
yeah i love this show. i just am afraid that there's never going to be a conclusion. the way it's going it will probably get cancelled first.
I am obsessed with this show, I have watched so much of it I am actually a little concerned. I try not to get into the theories or spoilers or trying to figure it out, I am just sitting back and enjoying the best most well thought out show on television.
I've seen people on both sides of the coin, the obsessed, and the enjoyers. It is nice to meet an enjoyer who doesn't seem to be clueless tho, perhaps you are picking up more then you know.
Just got into this show a couple months ago and am now caught up to the latest episode. Definitely a great show. I don't really watch much tv besides lost.
So just throwing this out there, but does anyone else think that Desmond is an other? The whole line about waiting for more people to arrive could've been bullshit and when he ran away perhaps he headed back towards the others.
i for one LOVE lost, in my web site (computer-tom.com) i have a page about it and a page for each character the show is great! I too love the show. But i don't know about that one. I can't wait untill the next episoid. There are so many twists and turns in that show. They play too many commercals though... 
If you want to see a torturesome amount of commercials, watch 24 or American Idol, 3 seconds of show 20 minutes of commercial.
I'm just wondering.. Is this show actually going to have a conclusion? It would be hard to have a conclusion because I don't think them being rescued is a good conclusion and I don't think them all dying as they have been should be one because it would take forever!

If it lasts as long as it should, there's no way of predicting how they will end it. Every season adds new twists.The writing staff says they have at least enough story lines for 3 seasons, but they do have a specific plot line with a resolution of the things we see on the show. They have also expressed that the islanders are not dead, and that there are reasonable explanation for things that happen (not far out sci fi ending with aliens dropping in and invisible monsters etc.)
The 2x20 episode will be cast tomorrow btw.
I also believe LOST is one of the best series of its kind, if not thebest. All the action that goes on makes me discuss it every time at work or with my friends.
Al For the most part I really enjoy the show, its the first Reality show i've even given a damn about.. The recaps are a bit much sometimes though. I like Lost, i'll admit it. Just another dramma to get wrapped up into.
lost is a good show, its kind of long winded though with not alot of produce.
2 seasons and so far we have learnt say 2% of the islands secrets, and in season 3 it will come out way too fast, they should have spaced it out abit more. as season 1 was 24 episodes of characters details tbh.
its a good show but the producing and camera crew are shakey, as they make errors and show things theyre not supposed to. I.E the hand next to the horse.
this show is beaten by 24 =D hands down.
I missed the firsy episodes of the second episode...its just being aired in UK.
Wow, that last episode ended so crazy
SPOLIER START

I can't believe Michael made a deal with the others. That was just insane. And I really hope Libby isn't dead. I mean, she's got secrets we haven't seen yet so I hope they don't kill her off. The previews show them saying "She's dead", not "They're dead", so maybe theres a chance.

OH MY GOD PLEASE NOOO!
i watched this episode and thought noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
Michael turning to there team to get his son back, thats bad...michael is my favourite character ever.....and ana lucia was just hot. why have they does this to me If there is a God in Heaven, the next episode will feature a nuclear detontation on the island.
I know you all love this show, but OMG. Slow pacing. So many plot twists they don't have time to address them anymore. Implausible behavior. And just plain annoying characters.
What group of castaways would allow one person to "steal" the supplies? Especially the guns and meds? Any normal group would have kicked Sawyer butt as group and taken control of supplies. For pete's sake, they have ex-police, a doctor, and ex-miltary people there. It isn't believeable that none of these people would force the issue sooner.
As pointed out by the captured 'other', they have serious trust issues. You'd think everyone worked for the CIA, NSA, or Mil Intel the way they keep secrets from each other. Yeah, it makes for plot lines and suspense, but at the cost of believability.
And pushing the button? Who would do that? It doesn't make sense to me. A fragmented film reel and a hearsay story from a guy who promptly disappears. That isn't enough to convince me to keep up the pattern.
There is a lot of other stuff that is totally ridiculous, but you get the idea. I love SciFi, Horror and mysteries, but this show is just a mess. Yeah, I watch it every dang week, but it's like a car wreck on the highway. You don't want to look, but you just can't help yourself.
So, please, someone tell me why you think this show is so good? I really want to know.

Lost does tend to drag on and new episodes pop up every once and a while...
BUT ITS SO ****** ADDICTING.
I mean, you're like "Dude, I totally hate this peice of crap." Then it comes on, and you can't stop watching it.
It's like the Discovery Channel. You really don't want to watch it, but next thing you know it's an hour later and you're totally engrossed in Deadliest Catch.

I love the show, but they need to cut back on the lengthy last episode recaps, and get some more content, and like scrubs and the sopranos with long breaks, this show decided to take a 3 week hiatus.
Anyone else completed fixated on this show or am I the only one? |
Yeah totally agree with you and with the other comments here. This is a great thread that we have going on here. Lost is a great show, and it is best watched all at once on DVD IMHO. When I saw the 1st season on DVD I was blown away bceause everyhting was relevant and you really get to appreciate all of the little gritty details that all of those flashbacks portray. I am saying that when it is stretched out for months and months with tons of breaks and stuff then you really tend to get frustrated with the pace of things and suff. But when the 2nd season comes out on DVD then I bet you anything that when we rewatch it again (yes I have seen S1 twice so I probably qualify as a fan!) then I am sure that all of those horrible episodes like everyone hates hugo and the dave one will seem relevant!!!Good show, though im not the biggest fan of the recaps, the flashbacks etc, its still a very good show, the story can move on a bit slow untill the last 5 eps of the season (looking like that in 2 now with Michael) its addciting and I love it.
I think it's a totally innovative concept for television. I know it moves slow, and it drives me just as crazy as everyone else, but at least they don't do the 2 seconds of show two hours of commercials that American Idol does, or the annoying end of show collage cliff hanger of 24. I like that there can be multiple levels of interest in the show. The casual watcher who is just following the story line, the more intense fan who is catching all the number and character interactions and then the total obsessive fans who have researched everything the show talks about.
(yikes....submitted while typing)
The last episode with Ana Lucia is a perfect example. Many people just followed the story line and were fine with it, some people noticed things like the police cars in the parking lot had the same numbers as the hatch. Even less people noticed that Sawyer was the person Jack's father hit with the car door. Less people recognized the line "hey i'm walking here" from an old Dustin Hoffman movie. I think only a handful went looking for the Gary Troup manuscript that Sawyer was reading.
(Gary Troup was the writer of the manuscript, the manuscript was called Bad Twin...search amazon for a copy)
But how many of you realized the commercial for the Hanso Foundation was a fake? That if you dialed their 1-800 number it gave you a password for a website? That if you goto the website and enter the password it gives you a hint to find secret information out about the island?
Personally I find the whole concept refreshing and intense. I look forward to more excellent cross promotional ideas and hidden hints.
I don't know if you know this but this is the site for free streaming of the episodes http://dynamic.abc.go.com/streaming/landing but it is free only in US anyone knows how can i watch the episodes outside from US because i live in Europe . Yeah, I can't wait for these last episodes. They save the last for best. Of course that's true for the finale cliff hanger too though.
Anyone else doing this 'Lost Experience' thing? It's fairly slow moving at the moment but it's quite cool.
Specially some of the stuff up at thehansofoundation.org
Should turn out to be an enjoyable experience, and with any luck provide some much needed clues as to what the **** is going on.

What?
Does this have anything to do with that number that was in that Hanso commercial last week? Because I forgot about that and haven't called it yet.Okay, After tonight's episode I officially don't give a rat's patootie about this show. The level of stupidity of the characters and the plot 'twists' has gone over the limit for me. All it is is a soap opera with delusions of grandure.
Almost every character in this mess is an awful example of a human being. And now they remove one of the few remaining decent characters. Phag! I am not going to waste any more time with this show.
I was really glad when reality shows started to loose their hold and scripted shows started making a comeback, but this show makes a case for reality shows!
Enjoy, fans, but I've reached my limit for stupidity.
I've watched two or three episodes. Didn't find them particularly exciting. Perhaps I missed the good ones. Although everyone seems to like this show, it just doesn't grab my attention.
Anyone else catch the second fake commercial?
Hanso Foundation again...sponsered by sprite, and with a link to subLYMONal.com. Lymon being a big sprite phrase makes me think its a big advertising scam, but interesting none the less.
I had been watching this show since season 1 and up until now and it is very still very addictive. I cant wait for the next episode.
The Island is gettin
