Re: This week's LOST

SPOILER WARNING! (Just in case...)

I agree with BK and DR Jennifer on this--an episode like this would have been acceptable maybe four weeks ago (like the Richard Alpert episode was), but not during the final three weeks and especially not after the way we last left Jack, Kate, Hurley and Sawyer on the beach. 

And as for the episode itself, it felt rushed, crammed, full of plot holes and, worst of all, emotionally uninvolving.  And I was not fond of the young actors--for a series that has consistently cast actors of incredible caliber in almost all of the significant roles, they've pulled a clunker with those two boys.  Mark Pellegrino often looked puzzled about what he should be doing as Jacob, but Allison Janney and Titus Welliver saved the day as far as I'm concerned.

I'm just marking this one as a total misstep and hoping for the best in the next week's hour and then in the finale.

Re:  Last week's LOST:

SPOILER WARNING! (Just in case...)

Question for those of you who watch LOST in HD:  on my standand tv screen, Jin and Sun's final scene was framed so that while I saw Sun's head and hand floating underwater, all that was seen of Jin was his still hand slowly pulling away.  Was his head or face visible in widescreen?  I ask because I am wondering...

Thursday morning greetings!  I'm about to leave for an overnight trip to Columbus to attend the Ohio Prospect Research Network conference.  Fortunately, it looks like the thunderstorms won't arrive until I'm settled into the hotel.

Will the move proceed apace?  Will the HDMI switcher work?  Will the DirecTV guy be able to handle the four story house and the wall fish installation?  Will JMK ever have internets again?  These and other questions (including, of course, is this because I'm a lesbian?) will (hopefully) be answered. . .

BK re: the LOST opinions on tuesday's show. I think 90% of the people on televisionwithoutpity agreed with you (that with just 2 episodes left it was ridiculous not to focus on the main characters).



SPOILER SPACE---




But as close to the end as we are, how much is left to DO with the main characters? We know now the monster's intent. The only thing left is for them to try to outwit him and kill him or him to pick them off one at a time. In any event, three hours of programming left should be sufficient to bring THAT part of the story to its conclusion. What I'm curious about is how the sideways timeline is going to be integrated into the story proper. There should be time to do that, too.

I don't see what all the fussing is about, but I know I'm tiring of all the veiled insinuations.

Once again, no UPS deliveries of those MGM Blu-rays, so it looks like ROBIN HOOD: MEN IN TIGHTS will be today's work project. Should make for an easy day since all of the bonus stuff has been watched and written up and I only have to flesh out the review's introduction and conlcusion to be done with it.

I've all kinds of respect for differing opinions on "Lost", but I have to ask:  How are Jacob and the Smoke Monster NOT major characters on the show?   The latter has been a major force since Season 1.  And Jacob, while unseen, has been referenced innumerable times through the seasons.  They are the crux of what the island "is", IMO.

Frankly, I think they've pretty much said everything that needs to be said about the remaining cast members other than who will succeed Jacob and will the others get to go home or find some peace.  I think a lot is going to be happening in that final 2-hour episode.

But that's my $.02.  And I'm not charging anyone, 'cause 2 pennies saved are 2 pennies earned. (And I'm not talking about Pennie Widmore).
