Lost Season 3 (Spoilers!)

[Rye]

Discuss~

I'll add my thoughts later. But I'll just say right now, the first 5 minutes were hella WHOA!

[Kirobaito]

Let's see... let me try to recap what was revealed:

1) The Others ARE a former part of Dharma, and they lived in a quasi-normal community on the island until the plane crashed.
2) One of the reasons Jack is so screwed up is that his paranoia led his father to jump off the wagon and eventually die.
3) The Others are very, very aware of every minute detail of the Losties' lives off of the island.

I'll add more later, but I have a meeting to go to now.

That first scene was lyke woa. Sawyer is still awesome. :P I hope Locke and Ecko and Charlie are ok. :(

[Paro]

Awesome episode.

I loved how Jack thought his father was having an affair with his wife when she really wasn't. He drove his father to drink again.

Sawyer's cage exploits were also amusing.

"it onlt took the bears two hours"

"how many of them were there?"

[Del Murder]

This show started off with a kicker but it kind of slugged on after that. Like I give a crap about Jack's wife.

I wish it showed more people. The cage stuff was funny.

[Miriel]

I was disappointed in the season premiere. It didn't seem like a premiere so much as it seemed like a regular episode out of the season. After a whole summer without Lost, you'd think they would have started off the season with a big bang. There were a few surprises here and there, but... I dunno.

I do not believe that it is possible for the Others to know whether someone outside the Island is happy or not. Date of birth, death of father, these things *maybe* they found out through whatever government connections the Dharma Initiative had, but whether someone's ex-wife is happy? C'mon now. My suspension of disbelief doesn't stretch that far.

I love Sawyer. I liked how he gave his cracker to Kate. Kate still bothers me. Juliet bothers me. Carl is probably a plant, put there to work with Sawyer, just like Juliet was there to work with Jack. I don't trust *any* of the Others. Jack is getting hecka annoying.

Did anyone else catch Juliet holding a Stephen King book? Special significance? Methinks, yes!

I honestly hope that this season will be better than the last.

[Del Murder]

I'm pretty sure she just told Jack that to calm him down.

[Paro]

I do not believe that it is possible for the Others to know whether someone outside the Island is happy or not.

She just said that to ease his troubled mind.

[Del Murder]

Or maybe they have superpowers.

[Miriel]

Or maybe Sara doesn't exist and they made her up and put the memories of her into Jacks head?!

[Rye]

Jack IS so annoying. I had this theory that if Jack showed up in an episode for more than 5 minutes continually, he would cry. This episode proves it. I mean, what happened with his wife really sucks, but god. Besides, I don't CARE about Jack and his wife. More Desmond, Others or Jin and Sun flashbacks, plz. ;__;

[Craig]

My willpower is so low.

[Roto13]

They should kill off Jack and give Charlie more flashback episodes.

[McLovin']

According to what I have read and seen EKo and Locke are alive but Eko is deaf and Locke has lost his voice. Charlie appears to be slightly deafened.

And the Swan is gone.

Biggie spoiler
Jack has... met one of the others in the real world but he does not know it.

Also Ethan has been rumored to return sometime in the season, probably in a flashback.

This is all small words from the TPTB. (producers, etc) They could all just be foilers.

My wife and I just finished watching season 2 on dvd last weekend, and just as Miriel said, I felt like I was watching the next episode in the current season rather than starting a new season. But on that point, the producers have said that this is actually season 2.5 and will only be 6 episodes long, and that season 3 will be 17 episodes long and will start somtime after 2.5 (presumably after the new year) and each week will be a new episode (i.e. no reruns).
