Lost!

[innerSpaceman]

I am probably alone in finding last night's episode totally meh. Despite all the cool action and the very pretty-in-black-tanktop Sayid, nothing really happened that we didn't know was happening.

It was basically a Seyid story that showed the mechanics of what we've been told since the season's 2nd episode would occur - i.e., he's been "claimed" and is evil and will align himself with MiB. Ok, so that's about all that happened - except we were treated to some cool alternates in the sideways world and, yeah, some cool action on the island.

But it's what? Nearing the halfway point of the final season? I want some movement in the story. I am not happy with the meandering of taking an entire episode to move the story precisely one inch.


Maybe some stuff in the sideways world moved forward. I couldn't tell. So it seemed like a placeholder episode to me. Sorry, but Yawn.




(I generally find Lost seasons to start off slow and pick up steam around the halfway point. But I expected a more steady flow of movement in the final season. There's a lot to wrap up, and still provide enough new stuff to entertain. I don't think there's too much time for dithering.)

Steve! Welcome back!

There are 10 more episodes until the 2 hour series finale, and then the series is done for good. I agree with you they could move things along a bit more at this point. I'm with you, I expected it to hit floor running, and find my self a tad dissapointed.

No, you are not.


We now have another episode to compete with What Kate Does for Sucking.......although to be fair, last nights episode was merely a top of the line Hoover compared to that 7 A.U. wide black hole Kate Centric fiasco.

Maybe I wouldn't be quite so upset with these slow moving shows if they wouldn't stop advertising them as a -questions will be answered- episode. The only questions answered last night were posed this year.....I want old questions answered and since there are something like 30 major and another 400 minor points to be addressed I feel like they're wasting our time....I don't care about a new characters baseball story.......in fact, the very presence of these new characters rubs me the wrong way

End rant.

Regarding that weird, confused look Flocke gave Kate at the end of last nights show.......Kate isn't on the cave wall but her name does appear in the Lighthouse....could it be that she's a candidate and Flocke doesn't know?
