To continue the mapping, I'll bet that Kehaar will end up being some (as yet) unfound person on the island. The French woman who left the message, perhaps?

By the by, I'm Sophia P. over at TWOP.

ita,

RE the Lost poster you found. At knit night on Friday, one of the knitters was telling me that the week before the show started, they were handing out ones with Kate on them (saying she was dangerous, etc) on the 3rd Street Promenade. I love the one of Charlie.

AND is Dom really 5'8"?

For the Five Man Band theorists among us:

Hero/Lead Singer: Jack
Lancer/Lead Guitarist: Sawyer
The Big Guy / (bassist or drummer): My man Hurley
The Smart Guy / (keyboardist): Locke
The Chick/ (tambourine, vocal effects): Kate

It falls apart in a major way with Kate. I'm guessing that Kate is going to be a lot more Lancer than The Chick, and that Sawyer is going to become some flavor of Major Pain in the Antagonist.

I find it humorous that the Bigwig parallel has no hair.

Oh crap. I posted my post in the wrong topic. Sorry.

It falls apart in a major way with Kate.

I think that part of the fun with Lost is going to be the way in which the characters will start to fill the typical roles but will then wind up filling other roles or subverting those expectations in other ways.

What I love about this show is that even though certain plot points within an episode might be predictable, the show as a whole is (so far) not, much like BtVS was throughout major portions of its run.

For me, the OMG!Lockewasinawheelchair!!WTF!!! reveal had a similar impact as the revelation that Angel was a vampire. A character was not who or what he seemed to be, and aside from just being surprising, the revelation itself is likely to have repercussions throughout the run of the show.

What I'm now waiting for is the Lost equivalent of Angel becoming Angelus, or Angelus snapping Jenny's neck. I'm not saying that analogous events will happen, merely that Lost has great HSQ potential of the good kind. I just hope it lives up to that potential.

I find it humorous that the Bigwig parallel has no hair.

Sawyer? He has hair. Locke's the Fiver parallel.

X-posted from Natter, 'cause nobody there wants to talk TV right now

Today I am being a drunk and watching television shows in English. This led to me thinking that both Lost and Desperate Housewives are the sort of shows that used to be on Fox and the WB, and now that these are on Big Three 'nets, they are enjoying monster ratings. There is something a little hopeful in that thought.

ION: I can't go Sawyer for Bigwig. DDK will be Bigwig. I got five bux says so.

I think Sayid is Bigwig.

I believe that's Dom Monaghan's new tattoo, and he asked JJ to let him show it off on the show.

Whether it's actually Dom's tattoo or not, the producers has said that nothing is shown to us by accident, and I think they were trying to tell us something.

The people on the island will have to open their eyes, or they will get an easy life, leading to a quick, easy death.

Sail, I went and looked at the TV Guide spoilers. I would rather not have known the last two.

Deena, did you mean the last two in the second post (9 & 10)? Because those two seemed pretty innocuous and/or obvious to me.

If you were talking about the last two in the first post (7 & 8), which were pretty spoilery, or so it seemed, don't read too much into 7, it was entirely speculation, and said as much in the "spoiler" itself.
