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.

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...

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.

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?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

OMGWTF Polar Bear

IIRC, that's from the 2nd half of the pilot.

It comes from the pilot. At the end of the second hour they get attacked.

Actually? "The Moth" is generally regarded as the most predictable ep the anvil people point to the hard hitting message about drugs, IIRC.

The show really should be seen from the beginning to really get to you, I guess.
