I just wish it made some sense.

Hahaha. What show have you been watching the past 2.5 years?

It makes as much sense as Rambaldi (as in the kind that is "non" ).

Hahaha. What show have you been watching the past 2.5 years?

After last night's episode, apparently Day Break.

See, at least Rambaldi had a kind of predictable internal consistency -- no matter what else it did, each device was primarily a clue about how to find the next device, which is what kept the plot moving. And some stuff about immortality. The overarching question of The Mystery Of Rambaldi And His Mysterious Devices wasn't really the point, it just gave the characters something to focus their looking-hot-while-blowing-shit-up energies on.

With this show, they keep pretending it's about Revealing! The! Answers! but I don't think anyone really remembers what the damn question is (which is why DX's riff above is so perfect).

Chris Carter-itis, definitely. I enjoyed the ep, but was kinda eyerolly about the "Charlie's destined to die" bit at the end. My inner cynic will be really surprised if they do kill him, since DM is one of the more high profile actors on the show.(OK, was at the time it started, not sure about now)

Yeah, that was a really interesting episode and not what I was expecting at all. I do love me some time travel mayhem, and the actor who plays Desmond is very good, so it turned out pretty well.

I didn't really understand how that whole adventure ended up giving Desmond prophetic flashes or how he survived the hatchpocalypse or why he went back in time at all, if he did, or...well, there was some cool stuff about fate and course correction, so I'm good. And I wonder if they'll go through with killing Charlie. I hope they do.

But ABC has to find it hilarious, the number of times they've used "THE ANSWERS WILL FINALLY BE REVEALED" for a Lost promo. I'm never sure what gets answered because it's never straight; each answer is, "Aha, HERE'S SOMETHING WEIRDER TO FOCUS ON."

DX, I think I hurt something laughing at that post.

Well, Desmond took note of the numbers last night, when the delivery guy mentioned suite 815.

The delivery guy said "Delivery for (4) 815." Spooky.

Hey, are you still watching Lost?

Crumbs, DX just killed me. Ded. Dedder than something blue that's pining for the fjords.

I just totally went to an Eastenders place. I don't think anybody will understand me.

Oh yes, yes indeed. Have just been catching up with Season 2 Doctor Who (sans sound, so I'm reliving that whole silent movie experience by just reading the subtitles) and was reduced to giggles by the following:

(I'm paraphrasing from memory, btw)

Redshirt Of The Week: (as she heads blythely towards the big scarey seal on the Satan Pit where, it appears, Satan has been secretly imprisoned) "There's no turning back now."

The Doctor: "Don't say that! Good grief! That's as bad as saying 'Nothing can possibly go wrong', or 'This is going to be the best Christmas Walford has ever had'."

Well, it made ME giggle.

As is your recap of LOST, good people. Sigh. I do find Kate and Sawyer very shaggable, and quite want to see Sawyer and Jack get it on, but the whole recent focus on The Angsty Triangle Of Hawt is just all kinds of disappointing. I like the big cast, damn it! Locke! Mr Eko (weep! Oh, how I miss ye!)! Charlie! Hurley! Sun and Jin! Sayeed! Come back and have plotlines!

So I watched the "This is what's been happening" episode. And I watched that week's episode and last week's episode.

And I am so confused.

I don't really remember when I quit. But the SO likes it again, so I want to have something besides Numb3rs to watch with him. But I am so confused.

I'm guessing I should just shrug and watch the pretty and go along with things? That's what it sounds like to me from the discussion.

And also, isn't Desmond's backstory totally Jin's, but with fewer guilt puppies?
