Ah, I totally missed that. I was half watching medium and half watching lost.

I said something like that to my mom, daisyjane. It actually reminded me of the current discussion in http://www.bust.com/lounge/index.php?showtopic=37892&hl=

But I wouldn't expect them to bring up abortion on this show.

[DaisyJane]

Holy crap Tart, you saying "Eyepatch got roasted" made me laugh so hard! Such a funny way to put it.

If Sun is pretty much doomed, do you think she will try to get rid of the baby to save herself? I doubt it...just a thought. I mean, and she totally has a right to that choice.

[kittenb]

She was talking in a few different languages. Spanish, Italian and English.

[erinjane]

Actually I think she was speaking spanish. I was only half watching but I was pretty sure Hurley said she was speaking spanish and then he translated something she said.

[tart]

Yeah, a little research proved my hunch wrong... the fact that she was possibly speaking Italian is what set off my radar - didn't Walt & his mom go to Rome?

[erinjane]

The actresses are different so that's not her. She looked like a newbie to me.

[tart]

So I can't be sure with our crappy reception, but the pilot looks a hell of a lot like Michaels' ex/Walt's mom... who supposedly died of cancer pre-crash. But Eyepatch got roasted by the force field & somehow lived to tell, so hey, anything's game.

[kittenb]

Nice to see some focus on Sun. Please tell me she isn't going to die.

So what is UP with that island effecting sperm count? Of all the weird effects to think of.

And I liked the reminder that to the outside world, everyone on 815 died in the crash. Wasn't that what Boone heard back when he was on the drug filled plane?

Not my favorite episode of late. I knew they weren't gonna kill Charlie (at least not with the arrow- they showed that clip too many times), and I knew it wouldn't be Penny under the mask. But Desmond is always intriguing, and I liked that we saw more of his dark side.

[mermaidgirl13]

I loved how Hurley jumped at Jin's story even though he probably didn't at all get what was being said. I hope Hurley doesn't ever die. He's much-needed comedic relief.

[kittenb]

Another interesting episode. I really was wondering if we were going to loose Charlie to Desmond's greed.

And Jin's ghost story cracked me up.

[mermaidgirl13]

I was glad to learn why Ethan kidnapped Claire and more details on the whole pregnancy issue on the island. Kind of creepy that they'd been giving Claire shots all along.

I wonder what this means for Sun's pregnancy.

I'm angry that Jack is so willing to trust Juliette. I am glad that Sayid isn't but it doesn't seem like his skepticism will matter.

I'm dying to see what's up with Locke's dad being there. That was a little too crazy, even for Lost.

[kittenb]

I forgot to respond to this last week. I liked the bit with Lostzilla, as well. I had always assumed that the Others had created it. Now that doesn't seem to be the case. Hmm...

As for this week; when Juliet was facing down Sawyer and Sayid, I was thinking that I really liked her. But at the end, I have no idea what she is doing. She is very interesting to me, though.

Thoughts on last night's episode? I'm up-and-down on it.

On the down side: was the entire episode a big wet kiss to the fanboys? "Ooh, let's handcuff two hot chicks together and have them fight and roll around in the mud! hott!" Also, I like continuity. I would appreciate if the writers would remember that Sawyer - just, like, a month ago - was the only person that could keep Aaron from crying.

Up side: good, scary chase scenes involving the smoke-monster. Also, I like when the show focuses on the socio-psychological and this was a good episode for that.

Not sure if I buy Sawyer as the leader. However, I think Hurley is a good leader and I think the way he propped Sawyer up is evidence of that.

/Lost geekery

[edie52]

I feel like it was a pretty good episode, except that everything was happening to these people we don't know or care about, and who aren't really related to anything that's happened to the other characters.

They're just putting off showing us what we really want to see, which is Locke and his father, and Sayid/Kate/Jack/Others drama.

[kittenb]

Charlie confessing to that really made up for the ass he has been lately. Which I am sure he will return to being soon.

[lunasol]

Erinjane, I was where you are now earlier in this season. However, the recent run of solid episodes has won back a lot of goodwill for me so I was willing to go along for this little hour-long ride. I know how you feel though: earlier in the season, I was frustrated with the show and frustrated with myself because I couldn't stop watching!

I have to admit, though, that it's really shocking to me that they've only been on the island for 80 days. That's a little hard for me to swallow, given all that's happened. And when Charlie confessed to helping with the kidnapping, it occured to me that that only happened a few weeks ago, in Lost time.

[erinjane]

I was really unimpressed because I'm so frustrated with the show already and how slow moving it was. I'd rather see something that contributed to the story line happen. I do'nt know why I keep hanging on and watching this show.

[kittenb]

I really liked it, too. It was like a format breaker for a heavily formatted show. And I loved how Sawyer was all "Who are you?!"

And the ending, totally my worst nightmare. Anyone think we will be seeing them again?

[lunasol]

Oh, interesting!

I liked the ep - I enjoyed the meta-jokes about guest stars being killed off...and I always like it when they go back and show you the other things that were happening on the island...
