Brad’s self-indulgent LOST thread

God I’ve missed this show. I’m not sure Jacob would approve of me using a blog to praise his virtues (he does hate technology, after all), but it’s a risk I’m willing to take.

T-minus 20 minutes ’til the season premiere, baby. Boo-ya.

Here’s another classic:

I’ve never seen it.

I really suck.

But I’m not gonna try to catch up tonight.

I’m gonna make homemade turkey sloppy joes and cole slaw, and sit in front of the fire and play really loud rocknroll.

But have fun, Bradrocket…

My name is Arky the Blasphemer and I have never watched a single episode.

The first season was stellar, but due to domestic troubles I stopped watching about a quarter way into season two, and haven’t picked it up since then… I’ll catch it all on DVD someday.

 
 

Welp, it got really lame at the start of season three, picked up like a mofo at the end of the season, and now it’s in full bad-ass mode. Tonight’s premier was about as awesome as I thought it’d be. They’re really moving the damn story forward now. No more episodes about Jack’s tattoos!

 
 

NOT PENNY’S BOAT!

 
 

It’s pretty funny how the actors from Lost, the Wire, Oz, and Dexter wander from serial drama to serial drama.

 
 

Are Locke et al. to be called the New Others?

And Uncle Junior’s crazy friend from the Sopranos final season.

I vote for “the other others”.

Glad this show is back )

 
 

The scenes in Jacob’s cabin bloody freaked me out. I’m starting to wonder if it’s a real place.

 
 

I’m going with the theory that the freighter is actually just Oceanic Airlines looking for their stupid plane, and everyone else can get fucked.

This whole Dharma/Hanso/Mittelos stuff, with Others and Hostiles and Jacob… it’s all just a big smoke screen for an airline.

 
 

The island is a portal between timelines/alternate universes. The Dharma Project was the experiment that created the portal. Jacob was a member of the original research team who somehow got stuck between universes. The guys who controlled the portal – the ones who recruited Juliet and were able to make a crosstown bus appear outta nowhere to turn her ex-husband into a bloody splat mark – have “LOST” control of the island to paranoid schizophrenic Ben who, perhaps inadvertently, made the island “disappear” to the outside world in both universes. And those guys want that control back.

Seriously, all this shit is MUCH easier to figure out when you’re completely toasted. It also helps to have had a Mom who read you stuff like I, Robot as bedtime stories.

 
 

My husband and I watch the videos, and concluded the Island itself is sentient, godlike, or something.

 
 

I lost it for Lost some time ago but will keep watching ’til the bitter end because I’m invested. I just hope they resolve the mystery for the viewer before it’s over cuz I’ll be pissed if they don’t.

Am giddy about The Wire’s fifth season (another great one) and rather enjoying Breaking Bad, too.

 
 

I’m with Brad on this one, the season opener was stellar.

 
 

Lost? Pfft. It’s no Molliere.

BTW – saw you in action at that intimate playhouse a few Saturday nights back. Nice work, lots of fun, hope you do more.

PS – maybe you can tell some of your fellow thespians to speak a little more slowly, and with a tad less volume at times.

Yeah, I know, everybody’s a fucking critic.

 
 

I’ve only seen it once or twice. Couldn’t get invested. I have figured out that the title refers to the audience.
The biggest mystery for me, though, is how the fat guy doesn’t lose any weight while stranded on a desert island!

 
 

Duros, the “fat guy doesn’t lose any weight” because the islanders found a stash of food that included peanut butter and potato chips.

 
 

Ah, well, there ya go.

And ranch dressing.

Also, more importantly, the span of 3 seasons/3-1/2 years in our time only covers about 90 days of story time. No time passes in the show in between episodes.

Even if the food wasn’t discovered in the Swan Station, he would have a hard time making a dent in that much weight in 90 days.

 
 

All hail the Oceanic Six.
