Lost Season 3 (Spoilers!)

[Laddy]

Hey, Paulo and Nikki are awesome! But, I don't know what there realationship is...

Lovers- Nah, they argue too differently.
Friends- Hmmm, might be.
Siblings- Could be possible, and most likely to be true.

There, and shame they had to kill off Eko, I cried too much, I cried myself to sleep.

RIP: Eko, my old favorite character.

They're lovers. How can people named Paolo and Nikki be siblings? There was supposed to be a scene showing their relationship in <i>Further Instructions</i> that was cut out.

I thought that new show Daybreak looked interesting.

People will always find something to complain about (including me, I don't like the monster.), but I think season 3 is just as good as the others. I remember, in season one and two, people complaining about there being flashbacks all the time before and nothing happening. I think there's been fewer flashbacks, and more stuff is happening lately. What really happened in season 1? They found a hatch? I don't think Lost has changed, at least not much. I can't wait for the next episode.

Thank you! I am glad someone else sees this.

As to Paolo and Nikki, I don't see how you can like or dislike them given that we know hardly anything about them.

The only reason they're doing it is because they know it'll be the only way anyone watches that show. Taye Diggs is such an awful actor.

My wife wants to Tivo the new show so that we can fast forward through the show to watch the sneakpeaks. I told her that I never thought that I'd be taping a show to watch a "commercial". xD

[Roto13]

You can explain what happens in the sneak peeks to the rest of us, since lord knows I don't want to watch it.

I bet someone will put it on youtube the same day it's aired on TV. People are crazy about Lost!

You'd find it better if you used www.lost-media.com.

[Flying Mullet]

Wow, people are <i>just</i> a little too into Lost when there's that media site, the Lost wiki and 1,000 other sites just as detailed.

So you're saying my Lost lunch box and Sawyer toothbrush holder is a bit much?

I just recently rewatched most of Season 1, and I gotta say, anyone who says that there's no difference between the first season and the second/third are insane!

Watching Season 1 again, I must say that it was one of the best examples of writing, action, music, cinematography, character development, and story-telling in recent television history. I mean, man. It was just GREAT. Amazing how the whole season flowed and came together.

Lost has not progressed to a better place since Season 1. It's gotten more convoluted, plot lines have been discarded and forgotten, characters are being neglected, the pace is slower and nothing much seems to get accomplished in any of the recent episodes.

And this doesn't really come as a surprise for me. J.J. Abrams, is without a doubt one of the most innovative and compelling story-tellers out there. Almost on par with Joss Whedon. But he has a thing for launching a program and making a success out of it, and then dropping it for another project. The first project suffering for lack of Abrams-love. Abrams got Alias off to an amazing start. The first 2 seasons of Alias will go down as my favorite seasons of television. EVER. But after the second season, Abrams got a new project, Lost. He abandoned Alias and Alias suffered for it immediately. It was heart-breaking how far Alias fell.

After the first season of Lost, Abrams was offered the job as director of Mission Impossible 3. Well, duh. Lost wasn't getting the special Abrams treatment anymore. It suffered. Continues to suffer.

I wish that guy would just STICK to his current projects because obviously he has a talent for making great television. But arrghghg.

I agree the writing of season 1 is awesome, I just think that way of all the seasons. I guess it sounded like I thought the other seasons were better than season 1, but I don't. I think they're just as good, or at least somewhere around the same level. Sure, Lost gripped me more in season 1 than in season 3, but I think that's more because I've changed rather than the show changing, I expect more from it, I guess.

With that said, I agree with you that they've neglected some characters lately. Claire, Sayid, Charlie. This will probably change soon since they've introduced new characters among those, or at least I hope so. I really don't think the pace is slower, though. I think the pace is faster or the very least the same as earlier. The pace was pretty slow in the other seasons too. It may not seem that way because it's a while since we saw them. Either way, I think the focus on JKS will soon come to an end.

But yeah, we seem to disagree on most stuff when it comes to Lost. xD And I can see why people who don't like Jack, Kate and Sawyer would not like Season 3. But really, didn't they focus a lot on Ana Lucia's group in Season 2 and at the same time neglecting other stuff on the island? Oh, and was that Ethan in Kate's flashback or did it just really look like him? I'm guessing it just looks like him 'cause it would probably be all over this thread if it was.

Because women and teenagers are bitches and hate everyone who tries to include themselves in their predefined groups!
