I'm wondering about the radio, myself. Will Locke tell Sayid that he and Boone found a working radio, and got an answer? (Even with the plane in pieces, with his TV-enhanced MacGuyver skillz, I'm sure Sayid could fix it.) Or will be keep it secret in order to protect the hatch's confidentiality?
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.
Does Locke know Boone got the radio to work?
Good lord my memory is bad.
Does Locke know Boone got the radio to work?
Not unless he heard Boone talking into the radio. (I think) Boone was unconscious and would have been unable to tell Locke.

Oh, good point. I'd assumed he heard that conversation, but maybe not.
OK, pardon me while I hijack the thread for a sec, because I missed any Natter discussion of 24. Can I just say... !!! I figured that is where things were headed, but, uh, didn't think it'd happen so fast. Or at all. It was gut-punchy .

He already lied about it - about finding the plane, anyway. It didn't occur to me until here that he doesn't actually know about the radio message.
Oh, right, he said they were hunting and Boone fell off a cliff, nothing about the plane.
Oh, well, he's about to be absorbed by the mysterious light behind the hatch anyway.
With the Inside, of course, he gets to work with a fantastic team, one he mostly already knows and loves and works well with. The problem with a mainstream show like Lost is that is has mainstream limitations.
I wouldn't call Lost that mainstream, compared to most other network TV. Wacky monsters in the jungle, incest, et al. At least, I can't imagine The Inside being notably farther from the mainstream and still surviving on Fox. Though I do think it has a better chance of surviving than previous Minear outings, being a crime drama rather than SF or fantasy, plus the network must be reasonably committed to it since it's already halfway through filming and thus presumably will have filmed the full 13 episodes before fall.
Was there a consensus regarding the response about there being no survivors of flight 815? I have it on my HDD, so was able to go back and listen numerous times. I thought the reply sounded startled and incredulous and fairly natural but my mate seems to think it was said in a very matter-of-fact tone that had sinister connotations. What do you folk think?
What everybody else said about Fury jumping ship - any number of reasons for going to 24, and The Inside has more Minear than Lost, which is all the reason anybody should need.
As for renewed fears of everybody on the island being dead, aside from most of the shows writers swearing that's not "it" (not that they'd ever lied to us), I still think that Kate is the living proof they're not dead. She never lost consciousness on the way down. There was no moment for her to die and wake up on the island.
She seems to think they're all alive, and scoffs at suggestions to the contrary.
