You can please some of the people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time! It's so true now. Last year, everyone complained SO LOUDLY that ABC aired too many reruns in between new episodes in order to stretch the season out from October to May. This year, they've broken into two uninterrupted blocks, and people complain(And I'm not picking on you, Savage 727  ) I'm sad I have to wait until February. Personally, FOX has the right idea with 24. It doesn't start until January, and it runs straight through May without interruption. That's a much better way to run LOST instead of breaking it up. We Americans really could learn from the British Here  |

I agree. I prefer this policy of knowing where we are up to rather than sitting down each week and finding out at the last minute that it's a re-run.
Although, I admit that the wait from now til Feb will be tough.

We now know that there are two different islands. I think the Mr Eko stick saying to look North was telling Locke where Kate, Sawyer, Jack, and the others actually are.

That could well be true. As far as I know we haven't been given any idea of the orientation of the islands. Even Rousseau's map may not have pointed North (as we know, the magnetic field of the island interferes with a compass... although I'm not sure whether that's a uniform phenomenon over the whole island or just in the spot with that scene in season one (was it with Sayid and Locke?))

I have a feeling the whole compass thing works on all the island, as well as around the island. Remember Desmond said he was sailing in the same direction for weeks and he just ended back up at the island.
I seriously hope we go back to the Beach in Feb. I mean come on. We have gotten NOTHING on Claire, Hurley, Charlie, Sayid, Rose and Bernard...nothing. THOSE are the people I care about, I mean yes, i care about Jack Kate and Sawyer, but I care about those people just as much and it has sucked to learn NOTHING new about them.

I love Rose and Bernard. I'm curious to know why they are 'bad' people and do not interest the others.
So do we presume that the whole charade with kidnapping Sawyer, Jack and Kate was so that Jack would do the surgery? Were Sawyer and Kate just insurance? It seems a little too straight forward. What is the purpose of this manual labour they are doing (apart from wearing them down)? What's the story behind Alex and her boyfriend? (Do we guess he was in Kate's cage when Sawyer first arrived at the cages?)

Did not know where else to post about this.
The Lost Season 1 Toys have come out from McFarlane, and they are pretty easy to find. I purchased an entire set (Jack, Kate, Locke, Shannon, Hurley, and Charlie) along with The Hatch box set and I must say, these are truely some of the coolest toys I have ever owened. The detail is amazing, the backgrounds are really cool, and they just look really really good. Some of them are really really well done as far as the likeness goes, Charlie, Locke, and Hurley especially. Kate is prob my favorite, she comes with all these bambo that goes all around here and I gotta say, it just looks so freaking cool. The hatch box set is cool to, I did not know about it till i bought it, but there is actually a small light inside the hatch that you can turn on and off, and when you turn off the lights and see it hit your ceiling (yeah, it is bright, I think it is LCD) it is really cool.
If you are a fan of the show, or know a fan, I would definetly suggest picking up one or a couple of these for Xmas.

I saw those at toys-r-us last week.  I almost bought the hatch diorama, but figured I didn't really need it. Now that I know it lights up I might go back and get one! Locke and Charlie are my favorites as far as a likeness goes on the single figures. Another cool thing is that they come with a replica prop that's full size. Hurley-lotto ticket, Kate-toy plane, Charlie-Drive Shaft ring, Locke-walkabout brochure, I forgot what Jack and Shannon come with. Oh, Shannon was sold out BTW. |

I'll have to get pricing because the toys are VERY cool looking, but my budget is pretty much gone for the year...

Jack comes with Kate's Mugshot, and Shannon comes with Rousseau's Map of the island. Yeah, there was only one Shannon out of prob 75 figures at my Toys-R-Us where I got mine, seems she is a little harder to pick up.
The props are so cool, I completely forgot to mention them. I wish the driveshaft ring was metal though, i would actually wear it if it was lol.
The figures are $15, and The Hatch box set is $30

Is anyone still watching Lost? I thought Julia's story was really good! But I'm not sure she told Jack the truth about what Ben said to her. Also, as soon as she told that guy "not unless he gets hit by a bus", I told Phil "start looking for a bus!". He spotted it as soon as they walked out to the curb, so no suprise for us!  |

He hee - I am Quiet in here isn't it? I thought it was an interesting back story... I wonder where her sister is, whether she came to the island or is still in Miami, they seemed reluctant for her sister to join her, but I can't see how they'd persuade Juliette to leave her behind. I was really excited to get a back story of 'an other'. |

I too am glad to see LOST back on the air! I enjoyed Julia's story but boy is she heartless - look at the way she blew away the guy on the beach who was going after Sawyer! How about Desmond's story? Pretty interesting story there as well!! |

Oh, it was good! Finally got to see more of Jack's backstory, this time I think it was before he met his wife. We found out what part of his tatoo means. I don't trust Juliette.  |

What do you all think about Locke blowing up the sub!! If you or I were tossed out of a building like ole Locke boy we would not be around to do anything!! That was one heck of a drop!! What is his Daddy doing on the island or is it like Ben said - when you look in the box you see whatever you want? Is that what Locke wanted to see? |
