'Out Of Gas'


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.

Art Crawl!!!

He should.

OMG, I can't believe I didn't recognize Holland Manners!!

Okay, I loved Hurley's dream.

And I was calling the Other Others, the Other Others too. (And Walt must be with the Others, rather than the Other Others.)

There is considerable overlap between the intelligence of the smartest bears and the dumbest tourists.

Dude, I know what three months supply of food for one man is, and it's not that supply room. There were two or three dozen candy bars in that one box alone; are we supposed to think that Des and Kelvin both hated chocolate? It would have been more reasonable to say a year or so; still not much when shared out among 40 people.

But I loved Hurley being the goodie fairy, and this episode brought out why I like Jack; he assigns or asks people to do things he thinks they'll be good at, and he generally takes their word for it when they make a decision. Unlike Locke, Mr. "Everything is a Freaky Life Lesson and You Must Suffer."

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

I'm wondering about the candy bars, expecially since neither Rose nor Hurley ever heard of Apollo bars. All the other food seemed to be in generic packaging (even the peanut butter). Which reminds me. Should a nursing mother be eating peanut butter?

If those potato chips have been there for years and years, they must be pretty stale.

Unlike Locke, Mr. "Everything is a Freaky Life Lesson and You Must Suffer."

I'm thinking that the last scene of the series will be Locke sitting alone in the bunker, continuing to push the button after everyone else has left the island.

Sayid should rig up a clockwork mechanism that pecks out the numbers and pushes the Execute button every 108 minutes. After all, he's only a little bit less brilliant than Gilligan Island's Professor, right? Bamboo tech, baby!

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

Okay, how many dipping birds are needed to make this work?

Heh, that's perfect.

So, in light of Sam Anderson's appearence, is it too much to hope that they might get Harry Groener on the show at some point (I'll even take him in a flashback)?

Because that worked out so well when Homer Simpson tried it.

The evil is this way?

I missed the first five minutes. (There was a thing with my VCR and baseball playoff game.) I saw the end of Hurley's dream, with the Korean guy speaking English. Was there anything before that?

Also --Holland Manners! Yea!!

What is even happening?

All right, who had money on Hurley being the Chosen One?

Who had money on "the Lostaways are all dead and in Hell"?

Do I get partial credit for purgatory?

I'm wondering about the candy bars, expecially since neither Rose nor Hurley ever heard of Apollo bars. All the other food seemed to be in generic packaging (even the peanut butter). Which reminds me. Should a nursing mother be eating peanut butter?

According to doctors today, no, she shouldn't. Still, she probably does need some protein, so I don't know. And yeah, about the food, it seems to me that at least one of the things Hurley read off was a Dharma brand thing. Do you think they're all going to end up drugged from this stuff?

OK, I'm sure this has been done ad nauseum, but I only started watching Lost recently, but: Why aren't half the people from a flight out of Sydney Australian??

Maybe it was a charter? Maybe it wasn't an Australian-vacation time of year, and wasn't the right time of day for typical business travel. I don't know, but I am pretty sure most of the people leaving Aruba with me weren't Aruban.

Oh, that's Holland Manners! Duh. Okay, that part made me misty. Hurley's friend looked really familiar too. Was anyone else expecting the van to crash in the "stay gold, Ponyboy" scene? I got nervous.

Yes! Kate, I kept waiting for a look of horror on Hurley's face. I was very surprised they didn't have an Actual! Car Crash.

I don't even know who Claire is. Heh.

She looks a little like Snicker!Bitch (Shannon--the one who was walking the dog) from a distance--small, pretty, blonde. But she's nice. You can tell, because she's not American.

HOLLAND! I totally knew he was Rose's husband, the first time we saw him.
