Lost!

Spoiler:

I heard the glimpse of the 'monster' was when Hurley was looking at the comic book on the plane... it showed the polar bear..

Before I heard that I was thinking the glimpse was the shadow spirit thingie that was around when Locke was being pulled down the hole

Rest of my thoughts in spoilers

Spoiler:

OMG!!!!! This is how flashbacks should be done. Short and to the point. Poor Jin!!! That guy in the bathroom.... You can tell Jin never signed on for this when he married Sun.

I cannot believe that Artz just exploded! Was it the dynamite or spontanious combustion? I missed it.

SHARRRRRK anyone? I had a feeling the rescue boat wasn't that. They were only 15 miles out, wouldn't a ship in a shipping lane have noticed the island before? I wonder how long The Others have been on the island and how they are tracking them. And why they only want boys. Are they scouts for Michael Jackson? Are they living in Neverland?? 15 miles is a loooong swim back to shore.

WTF was that spirit ghost thingie??? Could that be the monster? What did Locke see? I'm not sure the monster is a polar bear. I'm thinking it could be some sort of super-human with some sort of pure energy strength/weapon to take down the trees. Or the monster could be that spirit ghost thingie.

Kevin & Bean were bitching about the ending.... it being a ladder... I'm thinking... A ladder to where!?!?! What is down that hatch!!!!!!!!!!!!

So much more than this happened. My VCR shut off in the middle of taping it. I really need TiVO!

Bartop -

Bummer about the VCR. I've gotta watch this thing a few more times prior to next season. I heard ABC is replaying it Saturday night.

Spoiler:

What did you think would happen with the hatch? They can't give everything away! Should be fun when they go down it next season. I'll be a bit miffed if they go down the hole and find an impentrable door. I expect some payoff with the hatch early on next season.

So I guess Ethan was in league with Danielle? Since "the others" don't want the baby, they want Walt, I'm figuring Ethan wasn't with the others.

I'll have to try and tape it so I can re-watch it. Thanks!

Spoiler:

I love that they showed a ladder! I want to know what's down there!! I think just opening it, showing them looking down would have been horrible. At least we know that there aren't a ton of bodies...right at the top.... There better be payoff for the hatch at the beginning of the season. I think too many open story lines is a receipe for disaster.

Spoiler:

Perhaps Ethan was kidnapping the baby to give to Danielle to give to The Others. Or maybe Ethan is one of The Others, as is Danielle. It wouldn't suprise me to find out she is one of The Others. I wonder if they want Walt because he is 'special'.

Perhaps.

Spoiler:

It could be that the whole kidnap the baby thing was a red herring to throw the survivors off of who the others really wanted.

Spoiler:

Good point! I didn't think of that. Danielle is totally off her rocker... but being on that island for 16 years would remove quite a few cards from most peoples decks. I think she really wanted to trade. I'm glad she gave the baby to Sayid (yum) but I don't think that will be the last time the baby is in harms way

Spoiler:

I missed the whole season but I shall watch the show in re-runs

Spoiler:

Comb. Loose change. Dog hair.

My thoughts on the finale:

Spoiler:

I've been referring to the monster as Godzilla. With the mechanical sounds it was making last night, I turned to my husband and said that no, it was instead apparently MechaGodzilla. I loved Hurley's line about the "island's security system that eats people".

I actually applauded when Artz got blown up, though I missed the actual blowing up shot. After he had wrapped the stick and was saying how dangerous it was, I looked away for a second...and heard "Kaboom". He was really annoying. I loved the glazed-over look on Hurley's face when they were waiting outside the ship for John, Jack and Kate.

When the blip came on the raft's radar, I was thinking it wasn't a good thing. When Danielle said they were coming for "the boy", I figured they meant Walt, not Claire's baby.

I figured that Charlie did already take the heroin. He was so tired and having a hard time keeping up with Sayid. And then after they visited the plane, he didn't seem to have trouble keeping up with him.

Someone on another board posited a theory that everyone was there because they were doing something wrong. Sun actually did bring up the point of whether they were being punished, which Shannon considered but Claire rejected.

I really enjoyed the show last night. Answered some questions, left others that you're waiting to see what happens.


Non-show related things - has anyone heard Naveen Andrews speak in real life? He was on a local radio show earlier this week, which I missed, but he apparently has a fairly thick British accent, nothing like what he sounds like on "Lost" or "Bride and Prejudice". Also, in listening to another radio show this week, I found out that the guy who played Ethan (the guy who kidnapped Claire and who Charlie killed) is Tom Cruise's cousin.
