Wow. What an ending. First, I have to say that I got it wrong on my pre-finale LOST thoughts. I made the mistake of thinking about the finale in terms of the mythology – about who will die for who, who will sacrifice for who and how the Man In Black will eventually meet his demise. [...]

The last new episode we’re ever going to get before the finale in just five days. Was it as exciting as the penultimate episodes of previous seasons (like Season Three and Four)? No. But it seemed like a good “calm before the storm” episode for a few final chess moves and a few revelations, just [...]

Great episode this week focused exclusively on Jacob and the Man In Black without our main characters. It seems a pretty polarising episode online, but I absolutely loved it. Here are my thoughts.
There are no Flash anythings in this episode so I’ll go in chronological order:
Unknown Date And Time

Going to have to bang this out quick before I head out today. Overall I thought Happily Ever After, while not revolutionary was a solid LOST episode. One that no doubt lays the groundwork for what is going to happen with the Flash Sideways and sets Desmond up to be the hero of the series. [...]

Another week, another episode of LOST: thoughts as follows!
Flash Sideways – Sun X and Jin X
So we finally get confirmation on what the internet picked up from LA X, that Sun and Jin aren’t married. Everything else is the same though, they still love each other and Jin seems less of a jerk. So it [...]

Don’t hate me for saying this, but while I enjoyed this episode of LOST a great deal, I didn’t think it was the greatest episode of the season, certainly nowhere near “The Constant“.
This episode is going to be easy to talk about because it’s Richard, Richard and more Richard, but first we start with a [...]
