It's aired at around 1 am UK time; so I'd guess it'll be available by 3/4ish...

Tonight?

Or Thursday, depending on how you look at it. ;)

I know what happens at the end.

It's all a dream.

Dunno if anyone's ever noticed this during episode 1; but you can clearly see some kind of black object, like the smoke seen during the later episodes when the 'monster' attacks, fly past the exploding engine and head upwards:

(https://oak.cats.ohiou.edu/~ms322801/lostturbineenhanced.gif)

There's also another bit flies off to the right, if you look closely.

really looking forward to the other 48 days. theres some picsw on lost-media.com and it looks good. really starting to like that mr.eko bloke and thats weird for me since i only like sawyer, locke, jin and hurley out of everyone on the island. ana-lucia is going to piss me off mind. does rodriguez ever play a role wheres shes not some wise cracking hard ass bitch? 3 weeks is taking the piss mind, bloody world series!

I've started to watch the 1st series back and have just watched episode 4. There's something in there that I'd completely forgotten about. Locke was boar hunting and came face to face (?) with the monster/thing in the jungle. It didn't harm him but instead it would seem provided him with the boar it had just captured and killed. Obviously later on in the series the "thing" appears again and would seem to be some weird black smoke. It's also described by the French woman as a security device.

So what did Locke see and why did it spare him? Remember near the end of the series the black smoke was trying to pull him down into the hole and when Jack was trying to save him he said that he knew he would be alright and Jack was to let him go. He must know what the "thing" is and seems to know a lot more about the island then he's letting on. He truely believes it is his destiny to be there particularly as he's recovered the use of his legs since the plane crash.

In other news, Darren Aronofsky; famed for directing "Pi" and "Requiem for a Dream"  has agreed to co-direct (with Damon Lindelof and JJ Abrams, no doubt) one of the series finale episodes of Lost in May. This is basically awesome news, because he's basically an awesome director.

There's a brief article about it here: https://www.comingsoon.net/news/topnews.php?id=11739

Can't wait for his episode personally.

I heard that the reason for the gaps between episodes is because they haven't made them yet. They're in such a rush to show them and keep the viewing figures that they started the second season asap instead of waiting.

They do this regularly in the States, apparently.

no, elsewhere.

......?

How far are we through series one here??? The last episode I watched was on e4. ( where charlie shot ethan, i think...)This is killing me, reading about series two, when we still watching series one ARGHHH........ bluebigeek.gif

Speaking of this bit, did anyone else notice that when they're burying Ethan he's still breathing??

Do you think this is just a cockup or is it significant?

On a programme where so much effort has been put into "hidden" details, you'd think that the only reason they would have allowed this through the editing process would be if it was deliberate.

No I didn`t notice!! Pit and the Pendulam, gives me the shivers....

Have a play with the seating plan, there's some good stuff there.

If you ask me nicely, I'll let you into a secret (Well something I've not seen anyone else mention).

Ok seeing as no-one has asked I'll tell you anyway.

If you go to the seating plan on the above site and click on rows 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, & 42, in order you get sent to another website with shed loads of stuff on it.

Also, click each seat along the top row and after a while some of the seats change colour and if you click on them stuff happens.

That's about all I've found so far, if you find anything else let us know.

Think he linked to the wrong site.

https://www.oceanic-air.com/ is the one with the seating plan.

Click on "find", then do what Indigo said in his post.

Also, on some of the pages on that site, if you view the page's source you can see some hidden messages from some of the background survivors. None of them really give anything away, but it's still a nice touch.

Unless you're talking about the Edgar Allen Poe thing or the old Vincent Price film?

Heh, I've just been watching the final episode of season one again and noticed something I'd somehow never seen before; when Hurley is on the buggy he buys from the old man in the airport, he drives past a set of cheerleaders who are lined up in the forground. Each of them have one of the numbers printed on the back of their shirt.

Subliminal messaging :banana:

Aha, but in the same episode, did you notice the figures on the dashboard of his car? Even more subliminal!!

Yeah, I notice most of the numbers, well more than the other stuff anyway.

23 and 42 are sort of lucky type numbers for me anyway, so before I knew about the whole 4 8 15 16 23 42 thing, I was thinking why do I keep seeing 23 & 42 everywhere in this programme, it freaked me out for a while.

I wonder where the other numbers come from?

I meant where did the writers get them from.

wouldn't completely agree with andy's wankfest of an analysis but he seems to know his lost so i understand his excitement and enthusiasm.

it appears that there are more than 1 set of others. the ones who live in the jungle were described by ana-lucia as animals while the ones who took walt were anything but. maybe the ones who took walt were part of the group who ran the initiative associated with the hatch or possibly 1) descendents of the black rock survivors 2)while the jungle others are natives of the islands. who knows? this show is immense!

fair points. but in all fairness, is it every proven to be a south pacific island. for example the nigerian plane suggests they are closer to africa or even that the island moves, (very out there but thats what my housemate thinks). overall, the general behaviour and description of the jungle others suggests they are tribal and therefore must be from the island.

nah i don't see that. apparently three of the ana-lucia survivors were taken on the first night which means the others could not have had time to descent into tribal form in that time, while also they are very smart and don't leave trails which suggests they know the jungle as its their home. i dunno, the writers can throw in pretty much anything and explain it very well.

The Canadian version of the episode 7 preview is available on the link below; it's a bit more revealing than the American one, and obviously contains spoliers:

https://s47.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1DXUAJJU194JJ0YR5MC62ZOYDV

The line from Ana-Lucia at the end :shock:

Also, although the thing hanging down fro the person's hand doesn't look much like a gun, the thing that emerges from behind the hand does look like a gun barrel to me.

Possibly, but it looks a lot larger and longer than A-L's pistol.

Andy where do you get these finds?

Arm's a bit muscualr-looking to be AL's, too.
Andy where do you get these finds?

Thirdly, a picture of what is apparently one of "the others", taken from the american preview:

https://tinypic.com/fkmces.jpg

There's a video file of the above image in motion here: https://media.putfile.com/other1

The mural in the hatch also brings curiousity. Here is a rendering of the clear parts of the mural:
https://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a163/fitz619/LOST.jpg
In the bottom right corner, If you assume the 'eye' to be read as "I," the "M" to be read as "am," the mural may portary the message "I am sick," or even, if you throw the house picture in there "I am home sick."
Something else surprising about the mural, it is strangely altered between episodes.
https://img251.imageshack.us/my.php?image=iamsickmural0ah.jpg
The "sick" part of the mural has been altered and is now difficult to decipher.
https://img251.imageshack.us/my.php?image=iamsickiamwellmural5rs.jpg
Perhaps it now reads: "I am well"
 blueconfused.gif

(Mainly directed at Andy)
I don't know if you noticed this, but I was just looking back on S1 Ep1, watching the turbine blow up in DVD on slow-mo, to confirm the image you posted some time back for myself. I kept it running in slow-mo, and as the man is sucked into the turbine, you can see a similar 'shadow' that appears to push the man into the turbine with force. Creepy, but I'm sure someone's seen it before.

Few more images:

This one shows Locke holding a mysterious green item just before his second conversation with Claire (about 20 minutes in). When Claire talks to him, he quickly moves the object out of sight. Later, we see a green marking on a tree behind Ana-Lucia's group:

(https://img15.imgspot.com/u/05/316/21/lostlockegreen1131935744.jpg)

Co-incidence? Could Locke have been following them for some reason?

Secondly, this is from Exodus 2; just after Kate chucks a stick of dynamite down the hole at "the monster":

(https://img264.echo.cx/img264/9515/enhanceeyes7aj.jpg)

You can clearly see two faces in amongst the smoke.

Finally, I'll only link to this one because it's from the next episode and contains SPOILERS:

https://lost-media.com/modules/coppermine/albums/ep-promos/sea2/48days/48days-promo12.jpg

Recognise anything from that image?

After reading that I think it's pretty certain that Eko was blind and cured when he got to the island, Locke Style.

Well last night's episode was a bit good...

Eh?

An eh at your question, how did you notice that?

I'm trying to stay away from the previews, they give too much away. A good preview should draw you in without giving the plot away, but the lost ones just spoil the next episode for me.

Andy, did you read the "'Lost' in frustration" article on that site?

Now that's someone who doesn't get the concept of a mystery show.

I think it was written by someone on the Chicago Sun-Times, probably a journo who thinks they have a devine right o know more than everyone else, but has not been told anything more in this instance and has thrown their toys out of the pram.

Just watched the last episode again; spotters badges to anyone who can spot the driver of a white car arrogantly driving into camera shot during one of the scenes. bluebiggrin.gif

The site I use to download it seems to be f***** at the moment or at least the search feature is!

Still need a link?

Right finallly caught up to you guys, so the next one is episode 8 right? Last episode i'd agree abit rushed, someone mentioned about the bit in the last series with the bears in the background? Had a look back couldn't see anything.

Another interesting one:

(https://www.bigspaceship1.com/images/13.gif)

Just been reading through this theory; one of the best I've read by a mile, and the writer could actually be on to something. Well worth a look:

https://www.4815162342.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3377

Although 3 weeks off over xmas doesn't look good.

Yeah, I've been watching Numbers on C4 just now to put tonight's shambles to the back of my mind. That ending with the hatch is still the best EVER.

From what I've heard, tonight's episode is really, REALLY good; with a massive cliffhanger at the end, going into the winter break.

Yeah, that ending's brilliant too. When I first watched it I was like "WHAT THE SWEET BABY JESUS WAS THAT?!" now I'm like "Ah, there's good old Des switching the living room light on again".

Awesome.

my favourite ending is Deux Ex Machina when locke's on the hatch and the light comes on. sheer brilliance. although i wacthed them all at once so i don;t know if numbers was prior to a large break which would increase its brilliance in terms of endings.

anyway, really hope tonight is quality and i believe it will be. lost never lets me down like newcastle do. maybe cos its managed by genius' like lindelof and j.j abrams and not by some stupid prick.

also the interaction between the tailies and the fuselage folk has been missed out tho. why is no-one asking about walt or the raft. just glossed over that one.

one of the major things i've been thinking about is at the end of this series, will the style of the show change. for example, after maybe 1 more jack, charlie, locke or kate flashback their story from before the island will be told. will we see flashbacks of them from on the island, things we didn't get shown or will they phase them out and show the backstories of other characters?

Has anyone got a link for the preview of the next episode?

https://lost-media.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=408

No problem:

https://s54.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1LYZEW0Y7NY5C2RY1P624J1770

anyway, remember when Locke looked down the hatch and light came on? any news on that, im on Series 2 Episode 9 but i cant seem to remember much about that incident. Also when the guy in the hatch turns the lights on would i be right in saying the light shines up the tunnel and out the hatch door? if so how did Boone and Locke not see this before?

This wasnt mentioned but what about the massive amounts on concrete blocking whatever it is its blocking? Was it the electromagnetic thing that pulled down the plane? The plane broke appart, it wasnt struck by anything, what the hell happened there?

Also ever wonder, the plane was 1000miles off course, what are the chances of crashing on that Island?

Jack was also a good bit in the jungle, he must have fell out of the plane, where was his seat, he was strapped in, also how the hell did he escape death and injury if he fell out of a bloody plane?

ps. In white, a spoiler for an upcoming episode (12 i think)

Locke finds trouble walking while exploring the island; Eko and Sawyer find more than what they are looking for; and Ana-Lucia solves an old mystery. Also, there is the revelation on what happend to Helen and how Locke became paralyzed. Both events are connected. Also, Eko and Sawyer find a very badly injured Cindy in the jungle while searching for the black horse. While walking the beach, Ana-Lucia notices the cable, just like Sayid and Hurley, and follows it into the water to find an underwater hatch.

That's what I was thinking; maybe Desmond has been assigned there to protect something (by entering the numbers), and "him" is the person who has to take over the job from Desmond after a certain period of time?

I noticed that Kate ate the chocolate bar after checking the expiry date on it's wrapper; so that alone suggests that either Desmond hasn't been down there for that long, or at least that he gets re-supplied every so often.

It was strange though, that he said "So.. There's still a world out there?!", when Locke was talking about the plane crash. Suggests he was maybe brought to the hatch initially under the belief that the world was about to end or something.

My first two wernt serious

Yeah, you're right actually. Strange that he didn't hear the trebuchet SMASHING against it earlier on in the day though :tongue3:

On another note, Ive just being reading back through the thread and noticed this:


Not too far away :cool:

the writers/producers have already said it ain't a dream or purgatory so those theories are out. theories at this point are far fetched to say the least. i heard that they planned for 5 series so we should know something by about half way throught the fifth!!

Geek. :tongue3:

There's another one for the awards: 'most utterly, utterly jealous of Andy's exceptional storyline-predicting abilities'.

I'll add it to the list.

I've never watched Lost.


Shall i bother?

I'm not a big fan of over-hyped things though

ok i saw the 1st few on season 1 then cudnt be arsed to watch it , but i jsut got the episode that kind of reviews first series and ive jsut watched forst 4 of season 2 straight thru lol, its really good im probs guan watch all nine 2nite.

Definatly worth watching.

ok, firstly may i say what a shower of bastards indigo, andy and the poster formerly known as no quater are. i'm currently downloading all lost episodes after the one shown on C4 on wednesday, because they decide to play fool the gormless with me :P and make me scan the thread for refferences to santa claus, and jacks death. CUNTS!!! :P

Try page 7.

3 weeks or so now. hope it goes quickly cos this is killing me. currently i'm thinking that one of the six 'hatches' on the island is under water and may be under the control of a group that ethan was part of. first of all, ethan comes from the water when he kills steve, or scott or whoever. Second of all, the wire that sayid found on the beach goes into the water. rousseau could have just hooked up to the power system that was powering an under water hatch. Third of all, whenever we see the projection of walt or whatever it is, he's always dripping wet. What do we think, any mileage in it?

you could be onto something there like mate

Apperantly there was a rumour flying around that Ana Lucia finds a different wire and follows it to an underwater hatch. But how would you get init with out flodding the place?

The scene I watched was set in a church. It was designed for Mr. Eko's (Adewale Akinnuowy-Agbaje) first flashback. Mr. Eko is "king of the warlords" in Nigeria. He enters the church with other warlords and asks his brother, a minister in the church, to ordain him as a minister. Everyone is frightened, knowing Mr. Eko's reputation, and the church is cleared, so only two warlords, Mr. Eko and his brother, are left.

Arrested Development
This show had accolades heaped upon it and earned a hardcore dedicated fan base. Unfortunately, it didn't stop Fox from canceling it. The writing recalled the screwball comedies of Neil Simon or the Naked Gun movies, where the jokes whiz by at a million miles an hour and you can barely keep up with the hilarity. Alas, its Development was Arrested too early.



Grey's Anatomy
ABC has been on an absolute winning streak in the last couple of years after playing second fiddle to NBC and CBS. Lost and Desperate Housewives may get most of the attention, but right there with them is the outstanding Grey's Anatomy. Just when you thought the hospital genre had been played out (ER is in its 12th season after all, Casualty's working on year 20, and General Hospital has been on the air since the dawn of time), along comes this fresh, funny, and poignant new dramatic series. Ellen Pompeo anchors the show as the title character Meredith Grey, one of a group of interns at Seattle Grace Hospital. Sandra Oh, Chandra Wilson, and Patrick Dempsey are just a few of the remaining cast members that make this such a memorable show. We can only hope that there are many great years ahead.



Lost
This show brought the drama, suspense, and a sense of risk-taking back to prime-time television. With judicious use of special effects and a reliance on intricate stories and good acting, Lost manages to scare and thrill in equal measures. The story of 48 plane crash survivors and the mysterious island they are stuck on became watercooler conversation for us all and helped ABC rise out of the ratings doldrums.



Desperate Housewives
Desperate Housewives might be getting some flack for the current second season (is the Alfre Woodard storyline a bit much?), but earlier this year the season finale brought in upward of 30 million viewers and the season-two premiere attracted around 28 million. The show focuses on four women (hopefully this will change to five women as Nicolette Sheridan's character, Edie, is currently underused) living in suburbia on a quaint street filled with facades galore. Each woman has a unique familial setup at home and is involved in drama up to their ears. The topics range all the way from murder, affairs, and trouble-making kids to dealing with the in-laws. The storylines this year, albeit mostly those of the latter part of season one, kept fans tuning in for more.



Commander in Chief
This show throws Geena Davis into the spotlight of the small screen as the first female president of the United States. It's a topic that has been virtually untouched within recent TV dramas, and one whose time has come. Davis' character, Vice President Mackenzie Allen, has assumed the role of president after the current president passes away. To add to the drama, as the president knew he was on his way out, he tells Mac (as she is casually referred to) to step down and let the Speaker of the House, Nathan Templeton (played by the ever-talented Donald Sutherland), assume his rightful position as president. As Mac has to contend with not only being the first female president, but also one in which even the president himself did not want as president, the odds are stacked sky-high against her from the get-go. The chemistry between Geena Davis and Donald Sutherland's characters is palpable--they truly are each other's nemesis in the White House. Emmy chatter has already started to buzz on this new hit

you better be lieing, sawyers my faverite character.

Well you are reading a series 2 thread that stipulates that it contains spoilers for series 1!

Mind, I have to admit that I never saw the 'Kate being a lesbian and getting it on with Shannon' storyline coming in episode 24!

If you reckon a new thread is in order its all down to you andy! In fact i nominate you as official leader of the lost thread! My faith is in you.

New thread title not new thread. So.... where are these naked women?? naughty.gif

Prison Break: I've just finished watching episode 2 and I can't wait to see ep3. They cut it right where I wanted more! got 5% of ep3 to come. I'm enjoying it more than Lost Season2 to be honest.

better put this in white, just incase lyke, but its not really a spoiler.

the cliffhanger they left us with makes absolutley no sense compared to the rest of the program, how the hell can walt have gotten inside the system?

Random Lost fact no. 4815162342:

Michael is Mercutio in Romeo + Juliet.

Is it wrong that I'm more excited about the 11th of January than I was the 25th of December?

A week on Wednesday.

I'll be watching it live via a friend's website if I can be bothered to stay up. I would provide a URL to said site, but just a couple more viewers would eat up his bandwidth.

I tried to delete the first series off my harddrive and strangely enough my whole computer went mad and I had to reinstall a backup of my c drive, guess what number backup I had to install!?!

a friends website? how the bloody hell does that thing work and how haven't i heard of it?

If I win the lottery on Saturday I'll fly to the States to watch it ! :lol:

f*** that. I'd fly to Hawaii and watch them make it :cool:

Doubt it. I remember he used to refuse to even watch it at E4 pace.

Anything with Korea in it I liked

Has the series 1 finished now?? I watched last weeks on 4 and e4, which was repeated last night.....(they launced the raft) Or is it just on a break because of CBB4???


Hope its not finished........how long before we get series 2??

Where's Walt? At the end of the November 30 episode, Michael sat down at the hatch's computer and got a shock: a message addressed to "Dad." Is it really from his missing son, Walt? Or might it be the handiwork of the deadly Others who nabbed him? Our lips are sealed, but we'll get closer to an answer when someone makes a chilling return in the January 18 episode. [...] And on January 18, we'll finally learn some of the problems that plagued Jack's marriage to Sarah and why that's bad news for any romance with Kate. Source: TV Guide (Printed edition)

We have another new survivor, In episode 2.15, we will be introduced to Jessica, 16, who is described as smart, strong, attractive and will be found on the island.

My comments (in white):


Who do you think makes a chilling return? I reckon it's one of the dead people and I think this might be common from here on in.

Who's Katey Sagal, apart from Al Bundy's wife?

What odds will you give me that it's Danielle, who is the other female cast member to return and become a regular?

In white:


Katey Sagal plays Helen.

I think both the returning character, and the one who'll become a permanant cast member, will be Cindy. Or possibly Desmond... One of the two.

My response:

Helen = Stewardess?

"

Some information on upcoming episodes to wet your appetites (contains spoilers in white):

Some very interesting stuff in there.

There wasn't one on E4 last night as there's a double header on Channel 4 next week with the last 2 episodes of the series.

Have you watched tonights like Sned?

As far as I'm aware booboo hasn't read any spoilers - in fact he's gone out of his way to avoid them!

Good thing in tonight's that I'd forgotten about. When Hurley asks Locke what he thinks is in the hatch at they are making their way back with the dynamite. Locke turns the question back onto Hurley who practically describes in the inside of the hatch perfectly; right down to the decor and the food mountain!

Has anyone seen Episode 10 yet?

Has anyone seen Episode 10 yet? 

Thats what I meant Sned you divvy!

Ooh i'm excited :D

Can't believe you lot have been waiting 6 weeks for this one, i've been waiting 6 hours and thats annoying enough!

Ooh, might get up early to download it! :lol:

Missed the trailor at the end, which bit did they show?

(do it in white if you like)

Just showed Jin saying "Uddas" and Mr Eko and the rest running with sticks, and the odd view of inside the hatch.

No need to do it in white since this is the Series 2 thread anyway. They put together loads of very short (shorter than a second each) clips into a very short trailer which left many a question. They showed a clip of Mr Eko about to hit someone with his stick (made it look like one of the others), you saw the clock counting down and only 4 seconds left, Jack hiding round the corner down in the hatch. Can't remember what else but very well put together to make the viewer want more.

Episode 10 any got a link for it ? Ive tryed usuallt bit torrent site but ive got nowt

Plz Pm with it if u do :)

I want more, i wanna watch it right now the darn buggers!!!!

PS: Was saying to wor lass that i can wait for my 2nd scan of the baby in March, but to wait that long for the next episode of Lost is just cruel.

She hit me.

No s***! You're lucky she didn't ask you to pack your bags! :lol:

You know when a joke backfires?

Bloody hormones.

*SPOILERS ALERT* IN WHITE

[COLOUUR=WHITE] IT'S ALL A DREAM [COLOR[

Wow. I'll stick stuff in white:

Excellent episode, it was great to see Eko's story. I would have never guessed he was involved in the plane, but how did he get there? Why was he flying on the plane?

That bang with the black smoke scared the s*** out of me, it was most bizarre though. I don't really have the Lost intelligence to work out why the black smoke went when he stared at it, he must have some kind of powers.
Bit disappointed they didn't do more with Michael and Walt, but its still VERY intruiging as to how he's using the computer. Are there going to be any consequences of using it after what the tape said?

So many questions, so few answers!

Pretty emotional episode too, all the stuff with Eko's brother and Charlie's drug struggle was quite moving.  

Edit, done a bit of research! (white....)

When the monster came a load of images emerged, such as the crucifix, his brothers church, his brother shot, him and his brother and one of Eko after the crash. Is it reading his mind or something?

Just seen it :D
i think that the black smoke must have been showing him everything that was important to him, one can only imagine what locke and boon saw and why what locke saw was beautiful considering most of the images must have been depressing with all the s**** that happened too him.
i think there must be a religious part of the island, because it seems that the only ones who aren't effected by the so called security system are religious, but what was the smoke doing with locke in the pemulitimate episode of series one? also what was the point of the plane bringing the drug smugglers plane to the island, if it killed the guy flying it.

Guess who just downloaded a full episode of desperate housewives.

God damn false naming programs !!!!!!!!!!

i can tell you how the truck and nails one is done without it even having taken place yet :P

Oi nit you've made me post in the wrong thread as well!!

Firstly I s*** myself when the balck smoke came out. Honestly soiled myself. Jumped and everything. Anyway. Good episode but we didn't really learn much about the hatch or the others. Next week looks quality. 'This is our island' - one of the others???? And all the fire surounding them. Good to see Jack Locke and Sawyer all on the same team too.

aye i'm looking forward to a holywood style shootout jack, sawyer etc... vs the others.
Sawyer gets hit in his other shoulder and goes down slow mo style into a puddle. i can see us loosing one next episode. it wont be jack or locke. sawyer will probably suvive imo not because he's crucial to the story but because i like him and he's a great character, and they've only just brought him back from the dead, although now would be a good time to kill him off :( .
wouldn't mind seing the back of charlie though.

anyone help me out with the episode, the torrent has been on for hours and is still connecting to the tracker  blueconfused.gif blueupset.gif

They gunna have a series 3 ? That been confirmed?

I've literally spent all night trying to download episode 10.. all I keep getting is desperate housewifes, the lost boys, star trek and season 1 episode 10.. What am I gonna do? I'm starting to get withdrawl symptoms..

Any ideas? I'm dying to see them :)

Check your PMs.

Same here, any ideas folks?

TIA

Big thanks to Decky and Indigo for helping me out getting the episode....  :icon_cheers:

Well what can i say apart from that episode was well worth the wait, was very interesting to go into the entriguing Mr Ecko's background and to see Charlie's drug problems taking hold of him again, quality moment too when Ecko stared down the eye of the black smoke

I've changed them to green so they don't stand out as much.

It's not so much the colour, but what they say, that I don't like.

To be fair, I reckon after this episode this is where it will get a bit flat.  They make too many episodes, so it's hard to keep with the excitement, in my opinion.  I'll still watch it, knowing full well as it gets closer to the end of the series it'll more than pick-up.

After all (hope I'm not alone in this thinking) it was round about this episode in the first series that it got a bit stale, if not boring.

more jack centric episodes don't fill me with excitement like.

Ep 11 what time is the showing in the USA ?

Evidently not. All the better.

No one with a link?

I didnt think it was very good tbh. They could have asked the others questions. Even if they were the others. There's no concrete proof. When Jack said about Ethan all The fat bloke said was ' Is that what you think'. Only good bit was the last line and sawyer pissing off Jack really. Locke was good as always. I hope Charlie dies soon.

Not going to bother with white as most people seem to have seen it now.

I think the most important thing to happen in this episode, apart from possibly the others bit, was the signs of increasing tension between many of the characters. Sayid didn't look to chuffed that the other action-hero type people had gone off without him, Jack and Kate have fallen out because he can't handle that she doesn't fancy him any more, Locke increasingly seems to look at most people with a certain amount of disdain, Jin is under the thumb, Charlie is blatantly about to fall off the waggon, and well Michael is doing his, somewhat overly stereotypical, "crazy black-man" routine!!

If Jack wants to start an army, he's going to have to stop a civil war taking place first!! I can see it all kicking off pretty soon.

Well Danielle did take her Baby, but I don't remember it all clearly.

Where's Andy when you need him!?!

I'd like to know someone didn't ask an obvious question - if The Others don't want them on the island, but are "letting" them stay, for now, wouldn't it be a win-win situation if they helped them get off and away from the island?

Thanks to indigo in particular for helping me get involved in this thread :D

Ethan took Claire when she was pregnant. She 'escaped,' passed out, and woke up with no memory of her time on the Island. Ethan then tried to get her back, but was killed by Charlie.
Danielle returns to the castaway's camp and is fascinated with the child. Claire sees the scratches on Danielle's arm and remembers scratching Danielle while she was kidnapped. Earlier, Sayid saw the scratches and asked Danielle where she got them, but she replied that they were from a bush. She takes the child, hoping that she can use it as a barganing tool with the Others to get her own child back. She was unsuccessful though.
So it's still unknown why Danielle was around Claire during the time of Claire's kidnapping, and why Claire scratched her. It's just another unanswered question.

Some insider news for you:

C4 are going to so Lost season two earlier than intended, in "The Spring", ie before the end of the present run of Desperate Housewives finishes, therefore it will move to Sunday evenings around about the time Invasion is on.

Fascinating isn't it!?! ;)

Obviously hasn't been revealed yet, but maybe Danielle saved Claire from Ethan, and that's how she turned up randomly one night, in series 1.  Long shot, but might explain her random re-appearance.

i think the others need people to be in the hatch, but they dont want to do it themselves.

The thing is, the bearded "other" said that they'd "opened doors that weren't theirs to open" whilst looking at Locke. He was obviously talking about Locke blowing open the hatch so they themselves must know about the hatch and the bunker. I think this adds weight to the theory that they're all scientists though.

Good spot on the "other" holding Kate being called Alex, the same name as Danielle's son. I missed that one.

PS. In other GREAT GREAT GREAT news, it's almost 100% certain that JJ Abrams will return to the writing and directing side of LOST in season 3; immediately after he's finished working on Mission Imposible, and the Alias finale.

:banana:

.....a special episode directed by Darren Aronofsky who directed the films "PI" and "Requiem for a Dream".

EVERYONE! Abrams wrote and directed 'Pilot', 'Exodus' and 'Man of Science, Man of Faith'. All stupidly good episodes.

He's supposedly coming back to either write and direct, or do behind-the-scenes stuff for EVERY SINGLE EPISODE in season 3!

(Note: lack of positive response by normal members will result in IP bans)

great stuff! but who wrote and directed deux ex machina. we all know thats the best episode!  :tongue3:

Yeah, I read that too.

The guy I'm getting my info off works for endemol UK, so he works pretty closely with Channel 4. He reckons that channel 4 are using 'spring' in pretty much the loosest sense of the word, and that early summer would be more likely (so that they can attempt to get at least somewhat consistent annual ratings).

I have known him to be wrong like; but only rarely.

Is it possible that Lost's Libby is not a doctor, but a ********** ****? Ausiello: That's what I'm hearing, yes.

Interesting comment in this week's "ask ausellio" about Libby (in white):


Can anybody work out what the censored words are?

I'd like to know someone didn't ask an obvious question - if The Others don't want them on the island, but are "letting" them stay, for now, wouldn't it be a win-win situation if they helped them get off and away from the island?

Good episode made me feel sorry for charlie though. Good episiode but one question ( in white)

Why did locke put the staues in the safe and not destroy them?

Thanks for the link, Haircut.
My own theory about Locke:
 Heroine is an opiate, similar to morphine. Perhaps during whatever injury put Locke in his wheelchair, he was given morphine to ease his pain. Often times it is very easy to become addicted to morphine, like heroine. Perhaps Locke turned to morphine to ease his pain following his crippling injury. Even though he may not be using now, he may get a feeling of security by having the morphine in his possession.

Well I've now watched all the first series and what has been shown of the 2nd series in a couple of weeks so I can finally view this thread.


If the survivors got off then the rest of the world would find out about the island which the others wouldn't want, they don't seem to want their way of life or whatever they are doing disturbed.

Seen it now.  Comments:

I suppose that's plausible, but why not just go take them from the plane when he had the chance?  He could've picked them up then, and all the easier as no one would've known.  But then, it's not like Lost to be logical.

I'm going to resist reading that at the moment.

By the way what was the reference to the London skyline as promised in the podcast? I didn't notice any skyline.

The whole Charlie flashback was littered with hackneyed stereotypes and cliches.

Did anyone notice that his mum had a shocking Yorkshire/Lancashire hybrid of an accent, yet his brother was somwhow a cockney.

Digging around the net, it appears there's a poster that says
