LOST 6×11 – “Happily Ever After”
April 7th, 2010
Let’s not kid ourselves – LOST has entered its final stretch. And with just a handful of episodes left, there’s still an awful lot to get done. From this season’s storylines to character questions to the BIG questions of the entire show, there’s a whole lot left to do. But this episode moves us toward one of the bigger questions that we have left – what, exactly, is the purpose of the flash-sideways universe?
LOST 6×10 – “The Package”
March 31st, 2010
For most of the series, Jin and Sun have never really been at the center of things. Both characters have had their moments (Jin’s trip on the raft, Sun’s pregnancy, etc.), but they’ve mostly been followers instead of leaders. So while the first Sun/Jin-centric episode of the season isn’t as explosive as last week’s Richard-centric one, it doesn’t mean the story isn’t moving forward.
LOST – 6×8 – “Recon”
March 19th, 2010
Don’t look now, but the final season of LOST is about halfway over. In just a few weeks, we’re finally going to be at the end of the road, and I’m starting to realize that every hour I watch is one hour closer to the end. And, as far as new episodes go, we’re starting to run out.
Haunted finally coming to DVD
February 27th, 2010
‘Haunted,’ the 2002 TV show that was Matthew Fox’s last high profile gig before getting ‘Lost’ in 2004, is finally being released on DVD, on April 13. The set includes 11 full episodes, four of which never aired.
LOST – 6×5 – “The Lighthouse”
February 26th, 2010
Jack Shephard was one of my favorite characters from the first couple seasons of LOST. And what wasn’t to like? He was the reluctant leader who took charge because no one else would. He did a lot of things for the good of the group, and despite his feelings, he respectfully stepped out of the way when it seemed Kate had made her Jack/Sawyer decision. But since the shocking end to the third season, Jack has seemed off. He is less focused, less of a leader, and less enjoyable to watch, and I can honestly say that I don’t like Jack as much as I used to. But, in classic LOST fashion, “The Lighthouse” sheds new light on Jack, and all of the sudden, Jack is back at the forefront of everything.
LOST 6×4 – “The Substitute”
February 18th, 2010
Going back to his first episode in season one, Locke-centric episodes have always made me sad. From his problems with his father to his issues with Helen (not to mention his injury), Locke’s story always had a way of making me feel sorry for the old man. But the addition of the “flash-sideways” gives a glimpse into the life of a John Locke who doesn’t seem as unhappy. And with a couple changes, he actually has a bit of hope.
