I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR  

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

There's the "it's been six days and we're all still waiting" line -- but I was mistaken, it was at night. Does that change anything?

I think the two days per ep, forty days for first season will turn out to be an approximation. Some might be one, some two, some eps might take three or four for whatever reason.

Connections: Jack's father just died. Walt's mother (and Michael's wife) just died.

This is a great show. I just get that feeling from it. And in my opinion, there's not a bad actor in the mix, which is good.

And Gus, regarding Kate: her undressing scene on the beach revealed how bloody skeletal she is. She's hotter with clothes on.

If I only had a brain...

I am just so. damned. chuffed that one of the heroes is a guy who is unattractively overweight. Not fat-for-Hollywood, but genuinely fat. And he's resourceful and intelligent and kind. Rock on.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

Also, Jack needs to be in LAX in 16 hours. The transmission has been going on for 16 years.

It also just clicked, in relation to the show, that 16=4x4. Another four reference.

who is unattractively overweight

I think I would want to phrase this as "who could be considered unattractively overweight." In Samoa, he'd be a hunka, hunka burning love.

4x4.

Faith! Faith!

Which would be the antithesis of 5x5

Yes, beauty is contextual, but so far we haven't seen any evidence that they're in Samoa. (Do they have polar bears in Samoa?)

No, but they aren't in Hollywood, CA, either.

I was fine when existence had no meaning. Meaninglessness in a universe that has no meaning -- that I get. But meaninglessness in a universe with meaning? What does that mean?

I'm amused by some of the posters at TWoP who assume Shannon actually stole the water and Boone is just covering for her. Why do people want to like Boone so much? So far he's been either an asshole or just whiny.

Walt's mother (and Michael's wife)

Do we know that Walt's mother is Michael's wife?
