Things I said while watching "Lost" last night

[dougo]

"Holy crap."
"Nooo!"
"Wow."
"What the fuck!" (this was during a commercial)
"Jesus Christ."
"OH NO THEY DI'INT"

Okay, that last one I didn't say out loud. By "they" I was thinking of the producers of "Lost", who are now clearly batshit insane.

Sadly I was somewhat spoilered about two things. One from some idle speculation on lost_theories based on last week's "tune in next week" promo, the other from a rumor in an article linked to from the front page of the Lostpedia. Fortunately I didn't really believe either one, so I was still somewhat surprised when they both came true (simultaneously), but not as surprised as I should have been. So maybe I should stop reading those until the season ends.

By the way, that rumor (the why, not the what) is debunked in a TV Guide interview with the producers.

Yeah, last night was a real "HOLY SHIT" type night..

I haven't missed Lost as much as I was expecting to, but... that sounds like a really good episode.

It had lots of surprises (and a few revelations), but it wasn't really one of the better episodes. The flashbacks were more about tying things together rather than the usual morality play or character development. And some of the plot developments seemed kind of gratuitous, although presumably they'll be explained soon.

Ha, I went through a similar progression of thoughts. (maybe a "hey!" for the commercial). I had a friend visiting as well, who'd never seen the show, so she thinks I'm as batshit insane as the producers.

Other lost_theories people say it was one of the better ones, but I'm not so sure myself. I have to admit they have me lost on what the heck it going on. My hope is that they don't go Lynchian and not have any real plan. My hope is there's a good plan.

Anyway, I didn't see the "coming up next" but I assume Michael was just injuring himself to make it look like Henry escaped on his own?
