Did it go over this week?

I don't think it did here. In fact, I think it stopped right at 8 pm.

Nope. There will be no ass-kickings. Tonight I got to catch the WW opening finally.

[Afterward watch and post] OMGWTFThey Killed My Woobie!
Stop punching the corpse already.
Y'know, that's getting creepy.
Oh. Whew.

Wait a minute. Now he's undead. Never trust anybody who's come back from the dead.

Yeah. I was wondering if the island had something to do with Charlie's revivication. Which, if so, could be very bad.

I'm putting Locke and Charlie in the tentatively-possessed camp.

Sean, lookit! I'm glad I'm not the only one who spotted the resemblance.

Beverly, HA!

I know, right?

Am I just a bad bad Lost fan to hope that if somebody has to be sacrificed to the altar of angst that it's Jack? Sayid and Sawyer are just too pretty. Boone, for all that I didn't just want to swat him away like a bug tonight, is too inconsequential to matter. Locke, black or white, is intriguing, compelling, interesting. Shannon, Kate and Claire I can take or leave, and I want Sun and Jin to work their stuff out--some way. Walt is problematic because his actor is two years older than the character, and there's a growth spurt right around the corner. Although, that could be explained by the island, handwave, handwave. They haven't shown me enough about Michael, but I like him, I'd rather he stayed around. My island? Is Charlie and Hurley. Those two are involate, man, back off, no touchee.

Yeah. Jack's pretty and all, and valuable for his medical knowledge. But if we have to have a hurty death, I'm voting for the doc.

You know what I want to see?

The Martha Stewart of Matrimony.

They should so cast Marcia Cross as a nudgewink from ABC. Though I'm still crossing my fingers for Sean Maher as the boyfriend in that particular flashback.

I could ask best friend (a paramedic) to be sure, but isn't chest compressions-style CPR actually just a way to simulate heartbeat and offset death until better equipped EMTs arrive rather than a way to actually resuscitate? I thought it normally took defib or an adrenaline shot to restart a stopped heart, with percussive impact (of the punching variety) as a chancy last resort.

Two miracles happened in this episode: Charlie came back from the dead and they made me like Kate better than Jack again. Though I did appreciate how much emotion the latter showed over Charlie. (And having been spoiled in excellent fashion for the ep a couple of weeks ago, I was freed up from worrying about Charlie so I could think "Wow, bet there was a lot of teasing on the set about the blocking for that cut-the-hobbit-down-from-the-noose scene! How many takes did they do with Matthew burying his face in Dominic's lap?")

Wait a minute. Now he's undead. Never trust anybody who's come back from the dead.

You don't trust Buffy?

Yeah. I was wondering if the island had something to do with Charlie's revivication. Which, if so, could be very bad.

I wasn't all that worried about Charlie. I figured if the island could make lame men walk and the blind see (metaphorically, through visions), that it could raise Charlie from the dead. They ought to call the place "Jesus Island."

Well, he didn't have a defib or adrenaline, so I think he was at the point of last resort.
