Quick Question?

When you cover the up coming episodes of lost, will they be there own episodes rather then placed in with other episodes, cause they will be apearing in the US but not around the world, i already had a major lost moment spoilt for me because i could turn off an episode of CGS soon enough. i'd hate to miss out on other CGS moments because my TV stations don't keep the same time table

Great episode guys! I'm teaching a TV History class this semester at BGSU and we will be talking a bit about Lost. I heard somewhere that Tufts has an entire course on Lost. I am sure you all know about these good resources I use a lot:

Sky One's LOST INITIATIVE which offers a weekly vodcast from a UK perspective

Lostpedia: The Lost Encyclopedia

Al Trautwig's "Lost Thoughts" on msg.com

My favorite characters: Sawyer, Desmond, Miles, Richard, Juliet

My least liked characters: Kate, Locke, Charlie,

Never saw an episode. (Yeah, I'm one of those guys.)
For many varied reasons, it seemed it was on when I couldn't watch. (No, I don't watch stuff online.)
The series was so far along, I figured I'd wait to watch the whole thing on DVD . . . eventually.

sweet! I was just gonna shoot a email wondering if the Lost episode was coming up (i barely recall Peter said something about it being in the month of January)

If this is anything like the "footnotes" for the Justice League and JLU cartoons, I am so looking forward to this... can't wait to dig into this!

The numbers have popped up all over pop culture. They were on a Catwoman cover. There must be a list of all the references to Lost posted somewhere.

With all the past characters returning for at least cameos, I wonder if we've seen the last of Paulo & Nikki.

We'll see them, and all the other dead passengers, when the deplane in LAX like nothing ever happened.

I haven't listened to the episode yet, but I'm so excited to listen to it. When LOST is on, its what I live and breathe. I love coming up with crazy theories.

I envy you because you can watch the whole thing with no torture of having to wait 6-7 months between seasons. I am "one of those guys" that never watched the Sopranos and I am glad because they had like whole years between seasons.

I like how Matt things Mr. Friendly is Sawyer even though Mr. Friendly is Gay.

Mr. Friendly was my favorite character in the early seasons. If they work M. C. Gainey into this final season somehow, I'll be ecstatic.

Wow. Having only watched most of the first season, I quit because it looked to much like they were pulling a Twin Peaks.

So, Listening to the episode, and having you guys throw out spoilers ... I have no idea what the hell you are talking about. You could have probably told me the actual ending and I still couldn't tell you what was going on.

Ah, well. Thanks for the episode. Just like hearing you guys talk.

I've been doing the Great Lost Rewatch of 2010. I just finished S3 last night, and 4 and 5 are on deck for the next few days, so that I can be all caught up again for next week.

I love all the theories about the show, but I'm not expecting everything to be revealed. I think there's going to be a lot of mystery left behind, even as they wrap up the stories of the characters' lives. Even if ABC intends on doing a spin-off, as has been reported, Carlton and Damon have said that their ending will be fairly definitive as regards this little band of castaways.

My wife and I have group of 6-8 people we get together to watch with every week; we can't wait for the final season! We always go to the Alamo Drafthouse here in Houston for the Finale - the Houston Chronicle's Lost blogger throws a big party with trivia, prizes, etc. I imagine this year will be the best and biggest finale yet!

Actually, I was only repeating a theory I heard/read. I cannot see it holding water. Something could cause Sawyer to jump leagues, but I don't see him kidnapping Walt.

Great episode so far guys; I am about half way through.

I am not sure if we will get answers to all the questions you have raised so far; in fact I would say we most likely won't. I think we may get a 'reboot' to start the season where either some, all or none of the Dharma Lostees will remember what happened as they safely arrive at LAX. I kind of hope that is not a major plot thread as it will be to similar to 'We have to go back!' but I am on board for anything. As Jacob expired he said 'They're on their way' or something to that effect. I assume he is talking about the Dharma Lostees and that maybe this was all part of his plan. Whether Jacob or the Man in Black is the true good or bad will be something to look for as well.

Also; Esau is pronounced Ee-Saw. He was Jacob's twin brother who was born first and the heir to God's Covenant with Abraham and Isaac till he sold it to his brother Jacob for food.

Never saw him do anything relevant

I liked the episode.

Glad to hear that you are gonna do weekly podcasts as the show comes out. There's already 3 or 4 Lost podcasts I listen to regularly, this will be a welcome addition.

Regarding Ben. I don't think Ben was lying about speaking to Jacob. I think he lost to ability to speak to Jacob and was BSing the others to hide this. If you recall the episode where Ben supplanted Charles as leader, Ben accuses Charles of hopping off the island and having a child with an outsider. Later, Ben does the same thing by bringing an outsider to the island to be his squeeze.
The island is a jealous island and will have nothing else before it.
