Lost season three - right around the corner

[sleepyjeff]

Jack is trying to save Juliet by helping Ben and perhaps even becoming the "Others" new Surgeon(Ethan).

Patchy has "memories" of John. Maybe Patchy is like Desmond?

[scaeagles]

It is somewhat odd that the others know all of the losties rather well.....

[sleepyjeff]

Well, if anyone can't wait to find out what is going to happen Wed. night.............Re-watch the pre-view that aired at the end of the show last week(youtube: Lost 3x13 US) than watch the preview that was aired last week in Canada(youtube: Lost 3x13 Canada). A key sentence uttered by one of our Losties is finished in the Canadian version. Warning; this may spoil the show for you.

But if you can't wait, the info is pretty good

[Gn2Dlnd]

Is it subtitled? I don't speak Canadian.

Lost producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse were guests on KCRW's The Treatment. It was a good interview, definitely got me excited about things to come. But one thing was indeed worrisome.

The host asked the inevitable, "Do you have an end point?" question. Their response was that it's important to have an end point, that the audience deserves an end point, that it would be difficult to write without an end point because they wouldn't know how to pace the story. But they never gave an end point. They didn't even say that they have an end point and just aren't revealing it. And then they started saying things like, "You have to balance the creative side with the business side."

Uh oh.

Crap. What happened to their 5 year plan and avoiding the X-Files syndrome?

that's not what they've said on the podcasts. Likely they are hedging their bets. They are not totally in control of things. ABC has a say as well.

BEST EPISODE EVER!( well, at least until I calm down from my excitement )

Spoiler:

I loved when Alex told John that Ben was manipulating him, that Ben makes people do things and think it was their idea..........totally not getting what she was really saying, John went ahead a did Bens bidding.

Loved the part where Locke broke into Bens home....Ben sounded very frightened, but I think he was scared of his daughter, not an intruder. Seems to be an odd home life there. He has pictures of her everywhere, he seems to love her very much, but yet he must know that she would, all things being equal, see him dead.

Thanks the gods for a Locke/Ben episode. I've been a faithful viewer but the last three episodes were a downward spiral for me. But I LOVE the fire and crackle between Ben and Locke. And I really enjoyed the action and pacing and quiet all intertwined in this episode.

Drew Goddard did wonders with individual Buffy episodes when the over all arc of the series was struggling. I see he worked his magic again last night. Whoo!
