Thank you, Hec. That's, well, as you might imagine, a lovely thing to hear.
Oz ,'Storyteller'
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.
FYI, Daniel Dae Kim is posting at TheFuselage.com
Even his posts are hot.
Anyone who was wondering about the song in the montage this week, ABC.com has it as "I Shall Not Walk Alone" by The Blind Boys of Alabama.
Maybe Locke is Ethan, but they think that he is Giles.
Charlie seems much more Xander to me than Oz. so far anyway.
Haven't spotted Willow, yet.
Didn't you notice Sun staring at Kate for, like, weeks while the latter obliviously bathed in her skivvies?
And now that I've pointed that out, and recalled that the producers had Charlie flirting with her at first, and are showing Sawyer obsessed with her, Sayid respectfully and sweetly attracted, etc., I have a disturbing mental image of the Monster giving her puppy dog looks and picking flowers for her.
Thank God for Dr. Jack, who seems more interested in landscaping projects.
Have no wisdom on cross-show character comparisons.
I was instead thinking about practical things, like, what have I learned from Survivor that I can apply to this show? (Okay, not just Survivor.) Aside from the whole shaving issue, what are the women going to do when they get their periods? (One presumes they won't actually become malnourished enough not to have them.) How will characters deal with sex if there aren't any (or are very few) condoms? When they run out of matches, will Locke be able to teach everyone to start a fire from scratch? What happens during the rainy season, when wet clothes begin to rot? What happens when Doctor Jack uses up all his quinine on the first person who gets malaria?
And are Scott and Steve edible? I think we are gonna run out of boars eventually.
All very good questions, Nutty.
Each of the issues you raise can, I'm sure, be dealt with by a plant that Sun is familiar with and which grows on the island.
The fruit of the tampon tree (actually a herb!) will come in handy. As will the condom shrub, the match thistle and a type of succulent that oozes water-proofing Gortex when you squeeze it.
Aside from the whole shaving issue, what are the women going to do when they get their periods?
Cloth pads that they launder.
How will characters deal with sex if there aren't any (or are very few) condoms?
Not so effective rhythm and withdrawal methods that will be effective because island magic.
When they run out of matches, will Locke be able to teach everyone to start a fire from scratch?
There will be an eternal flame maintained.
What happens during the rainy season, when wet clothes begin to rot?
All naked all gay episodes.
What happens when Doctor Jack uses up all his quinine on the first person who gets malaria?
Sun finds healing plants
And are Scott and Steve edible? I think we are gonna run out of boars eventually.
The boars are mating as we type.
How will characters deal with sex if there aren't any (or are very few) condoms?
I figure once they run out of soap, it won't really be an issue anymore.
(Behind the HAWTness of the Kate/Sawyer kiss, I couldn't help wonder if either of them had brushed their teeth in the past two weeks.)
