Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR

Aw yeah, this was a great episode. I was all tensed up at the end there, with the weird shimmery polar bear and all. And OMGWTF Claire! I couldn't tell if she was still pregnant or not, though.

Why did Walt's mom keep Michael's letters and pictures from him? And what the fuck was Brian's problem? "Sure, his mom died yesterday and I'm the only father he's ever known, but I'm sure he'll be fine and dandy with the nanny while I go running off to the US to abdicate my parental rights!" I mean, I know he was creeped out by Walt, but dude, he's still a kid, and his MOM just died. Christ. (Also, I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking Walt might have had something to do with his mom's illness.)

And it's not as if he hasn't used the word "ponce" in a script before.

Heh, you're right. I should have guessed.

"Ponce" was great. Actually, I quite liked the little fight between Sawyer and Charlie. That was just about the right amount of Sawyer per episode for me.

What channel is Point Pleasant on?

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Good episode. Walter's freakiness confirmed, Michael gets indoctrinated into the Church of Locke (but in a sneaky subtle way!), Charlie was cute, and woo-hoo Claire! Sans the Miracle Child, I suspect.

Although, I'll be pissed if this whole thing is some virtual world Walt's imagined up with his Power of Actualization.

Alias teaser: wow, that's just ridiculous. (Call Rygel!)

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

What channel is Point Pleasant on?

Hey! It's the guy from Sentinel, the crooked cop from Firefly.

Thanks, AmyLiz. Think I'll go flip between that and Alias for a while.

One thing I noticed and forgot to mention earlier--did it look like Locke got upset when Michael stabbed the polar bear and it ran off? He had a look on his face that just made me thing the polar bear was special to him.

(Though she doesn't see the HoYay. Not in BTVS, not in Angel, not in Lost.)

On Lost it's not that definite, we're mostly leaping to conclusions when presented with ambiguous situations. But Angel... have you ever showed her an episode of Queer as Folk to find out if she just sees 45 minutes of blank screen?
