I am totally addcited to Lost! <3 I actually prefered season 2, I found it more exciting.
My fave char is probably Sawyer <3 He has some of the best quotes in the show:
"You even made Locke take a swing at you. Hell, that's like getting Gandhi to beat his kids." xD I luv u
Season I was much better :(
I need to get season 1 on DVD.
You get extra flashbacks on the DVD. I can't remember which ones, particularly, because my cousin is borrowing it, but one of them is Sayid's scene at the airport.Quote:

Season 2 dealt with more complex issues than season 1 did.
Whereas season 1 pretty much just dealt with introducing the characters and finding out what the heck might be on the island.
In season 2 they find out what exactly is on the island and you get to find out how they deal with it. And you also have the relationships with each individual character furthered so how they relate to eachother becomes that much more interesting.
I think as long as they have enough story points left to tell and they already have planned out how they are going to tell them (which I am sure they do) I expect the seasons to only get better as the series runs along. Because each season the characters will continue to grow with each experience they have on the island.
That is the good thing about shows like Lost where you have to watch every single episode to know what is going on because each episode adds onto the one that came before. Unlike many of the sitcoms out there whose purpose is just to make you laugh and they don't need to plan things out and there is really no need for you to see every single episode.
All these people saying "It's too confusing!" makes me understand why producers don't like to fund shows with several-season story arcs =/
Be patient. They'll explain things. Babylon 5 took a full five seasons to clear things up, and there was still plenty left over for novelizations and Crusade. It's also one of the best things ever.
That said, it's a pain in the ass waiting for each episode to reveal just a litttttttle bit more. It definitely works better on DVD when you can watch a few eps at a time.
But then again, I watch it religiously, so I suppose it does what it is meant to do =P
Kinda sprouting from this is my problem with those who say that if (SPOILER)Desmond crashed the plane on accident then it's just coincidence that all of these people are connected and that it's stupid.Quote:

It's meant to show us that fate can bring us together sometimes, but really we're not so very far apart anyway. And I'm pretty happy just leaving it at that. No Jack's Dad is in charge of the Others theory, no anything. It's just the way it is.
Speaking of Jack's dad, where the hell was he this season? He was a zombie or something in season 1, and he never came back. Well, he came back in flashbacks, but that's not what I'm talking about.
Well, he was never there on the island. His appearance in "White Rabbit" was Jack's imagination working. Of course, there is the question of what happened to his body (remember, the coffin was empty), but I think that was more symbolic than anything. Jack thought that he had found his father - both physically and emotionally - but he hadn't. I think he will eventually find his father's corpse, but it will be after he truly discovers his father, which will be if and when (SPOILER)he discovers that he and Claire are siblings.Quote:

You know I never really bought the rumor about them (SPOILER) being siblings.
From what I have seen all that was derived from was that the girl in austrailia who his dad went up and talked to had blonde hair.
The fact that she does have blonde hair is a big part of it, yes, but the writers went out of their way to declare that Claire didn't know her father ("Raised By Another"), and that Christian's daughter, who he had abandoned, lived in Australia. I just think it makes sense, based on what we know about how the writers like to tie the characters into each other.Quote:

Claire is in her 20's at the time of the plane crash and she would of had to have been much younger for that scene to make much sense. And the fact that Ana Lucia was involved in that scene as well makes me think that that scene did not take place a lengthy period of time before the plane crash.
If what you mean is that Claire wouldn't have been living with her mother at the time, well, Christian wouldn't have known any better. He was paying the mortgage on woulda-be Ms. Littleton's house, as he said, and so that would have been where he would have gone if he wanted to find his daughter. He might not have thought that his daughter was living there, but that was the only place that he knew to go to. The woman never said that her daughter was there, she just kept Christian from entering, which is what anyone would have done. I do agree that she looks quite young, though.Quote:

In my country were still in middle of season 2...just saw the episode were Michale returns and shoots everyone, original to say the least.
To be honest I saw one episode of Lost, and literally no pun intended became lost. I forgot what hcannel it comes on now. I might try downloading them I relaly don't know yet.
