Speaking of dogs, did anyone see the dog last night?
Yeap. Vincent the Doomrador was with Walt when he (Walt, not Vincent) spotted Jack and Charlie emerging from the cave-in.
I wonder whether the extras with sort-of speaking parts (Steve and Scott, that brunette woman talking to Shannon) are local or from the main land? By the nature of the series, they're obliged to employ the same set of extras for the eagle-eyed among us. So, they probably spend their time sitting around on the beach, waiting for the second season when they would probably get a story of their own once J.J. runs out of things to tell about the main characters. Nice deal if you can get it.

There, there. I'm sure it's mostly from the petty jealousy from the fangirls at your prospect of having a four-way with Jack, Sawyer and Sayid.
Has anyone found a transcript site, or — dog forbid — a shooting script site?
I had actually thought about sitting down to write out the scripts that were broadcast so I can look for clues. I don't have a website, so I wouldn't know where to post, though.
I'm still on the "Kate is one of the most interesting characters" train, but I do see the apparent schoolgirlishness of her crush as a knock against her. I liked the scene last week where she was pretty upfront asking if she was being ogled (too bad, so sad, Kate). But the petulance and angst later was really off-putting, and dropping everything to go to Jack's rescue rather than telling Sawyer to haul his ass there, help out, and she'd follow as soon as 5:00 came was a letdown.
I like her a lot better when she's all stalwart and competent helping Sayid or facing off against Sawyer.
Nice links lori, thanks.
I'm not going to write off Kate as an interesting character yet on the basis of a crush. It happens.
On the "Which team does Jack play for?" front: while I think it unlikely that the producers would choose their male lead as the show's token poof, there is also the matter that for a guy, picking another guy to get flirty with has a bit more risk of failure than a girl on average. Jack's had confrontations with both Sayid and Sawyer, and can see that Boone is a nincompoop. And with Kate on him like white on rice, Hurley's really the only guy he's had the chance to interact with enough to become friends prior to tonight.
Matt, double extra points for use of the word "nincompoop".
Aside from that, yeah. And, you know, they've been on the island, like, a week, and half of that time was spent sun-addled and wandering away from each other. The characters are just barely getting to know each other now.
