Yeah you should. I believe Lost is one of the greatest shows EVER on television. It truly is addictive. I want it to end so I can know what's going on, but I don't want it to end because I don't know what I'll do with my Wednesday nights.

whatty whatt mcwhat what? That was a good episode with the Desmond stuff. Now the question is what happened there?

I was thinking the same thing; I've only saw about 1.5 shows but could just never get into it. Subliminally I have have become hooked on my favorite show 24 in season one when they had a slight Grail scene. Any references to that in lost ?

I found it hard to follow; maybe I'm not smart enough or just lost (excuse the pun) when it comes to having to constantly think during a show.

Is it really worth watching the DVD set ?

YES. It is the best hour in TV today. Rent season 1 dvd, watch the first 4 episodes. You'll be hooked. Season one finale is a big orgasm. Season 2 starts off strong, gets boring in the middle, and finishes with a shebangbamboombizzle. Season 3 is also off to a fantastic start.

I don't think there is a whole lot that can compare to season one, though.

It's a great show Bretsky. You can't start watching it now. You'd have to start from the beginning. My wife and I just rented the DVDs.

Well, this whole thing could be a dream (a la Dallas) or a mind control experiment (as part of Dharma). OR, the blast could have made all of the 'affected' people have a brief mental time warp (notice Echo's statements and Locke's actions).

I think the Echo thing was a hallucination and Locke's was a punishment. I think Desmond's ability to predict the future was either a result of the magnetism (I have a hunch it will change a lot more on the island, including Locke losing his ability to walk and Rose dying), or that while hanging out with his wang out he was abducted and something happened with that.

However, I certainly think its more likely that something happened to his head with the Magnetism, or he always had that ability.

Next week we have a Sawyer flash, then for episode five we have an Eko flashback, and finally to cap the break off we have a Kate flashback. Then, we are going on a two-three month hiatus (everyone should rent the DVDs and get caught up during this time!!!) and then we kick it off on the good foot with a JULIANNE flashback!!!!

I wasn't near a computer last night so I couldn't post. My thoughts on last night's episode........IT SUCKED! I think I learned more during the very first episode of Lost than I did last night. There were a few exciting points, but not many. I mean...they ended the John Locke/police officer flashback waaaay too early. I didn't care for last night's episode. I believe next week will return to the kick butt Lost form. Did anyone see the preview? Are they torturing Sawyer? I can't wait!

[MadtownPacker]

Brando, you must have been smoking some of that sheeze Locke and his hippy crew where growing cuz you are tripping!! Last nights epi was great!!

Did you guys notice the leader of the hippy crew was the Other that wore the fake beard?

Well, they can't reveal it all at once. They did show that John had a dark side and was so desperate for acceptance that he helped break them break the law. It also showed that the explosion did something to the someone or the island. It wasn't a spectacular episode, but it wasn't bad either. Remember, they can't reveal anything all at once, either.

In the podcast, they said Ben was on the island before the Dharma Initiative. That means he isn't a part of it and that is HUGE. How's the for revealing things?

[MadtownPacker]

Last week Ben told Jack he was born and raised on the island. He is about 40 and the Dharma stuff started in the 60s so thats about right.

Does anyone think Kate was raped by Ben? He made her get a prettied up and later when they took her to the cage she had this shamed look on her face and her wrist where red like if she had been in a struggle with the cuffs on. Couldnt even look Sawyer in the eyes.

Grn Bay 007,

I also recommend you renting out the DVDs on the previous seasons. I also find this a very captivating show.

Madtown,

I think your idea is a strong possibility. If Ben raped her, he did it out of power and revenge rather than sexual lust. He has already established his dominance with "The Others." Now he wants to establish his dominance with the 3 captives.

Nah, Ben is a "good guy".
