Kristin, good call. Someone could be watching them all. And if they are, then it's all just a big bell jar experiment. Gotta wonder what the ultimate outcome of that experiment is supposed to be. And did they fail with Danielle and Alex, so now they have to start over with Claire and her baby?

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.
I thought 48 people minus the baby survived the crash. And then two died, bringing them down to 46, and then there's Ethan and Danielle, bringing them back up to 48.
Technically three died, but Charlie got better.
Clever, Kristin.
All being well, I'm going to watch Lost for the first time ever tomorrow night. It's got Gavin Park, Peter Watts/blown-up guy from X-Files movie, and Merry the Hobbit, and they say it's becoming a big cult phenomenon, so I know it's worth a look.
Tonight's eps will be "The Moth" and "Confidence Man."
The Moth had its detractors, mostly for anvils, but it should be interesting to hear the show from the perspective of someone who has not seen the preceeding eps.
Please feel free to be honest with us about what you do see. We worry sometimes about how popular the show is. hee.
"And remember, this is for posterity. So, be specific."
Previews for next week and Alias at :53 or :54 past the second hour.
Hmm...not quite sure what you mean by "anvils", but if it's predictable or obvious elements in the show, I know what you mean. Not a bad bit of television, kinda Lord of the Flies meets The Stand (at least that's what sprung to my mind), but kinda predictable (I'm like "he's gonna throw those drugs into the fire") and it didn't really stand out as excellent TV in my view.
The acting is pretty nice, though, and I admit I'm really curious about who hit that Sayid (sp?) fellow at the end of "Moth."
One question: where does OMGWTF Polar Bear come into it?
