I have one question: could Bjohn18x be any more of a bore?

The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right time, but also to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

Who knows. I thought someone was going to be hanging dead as it appeared in his flashbacks. maybe he saved the parachuter by saving charlie?

My interpretation was that this new woman is someone sent by Penny to find Des; that is why she has the picture of Des and Penny - Penny gave it to her so she could identify Des when she got there, and it is why she knows Des's name. Just my 2 cents.

I do kind of wish they'd tie up a few loose ends, just a few, before going off on new tangents all the time. I can't argue the plots, but I remember what happened to my favorite show, Babylon 5, when it labored under a cloud of cancellation. Though the circumstances are different, the result could well be the same. Lost folks may open so many stories that there's no way to resolve most of them when the ratings finally slip too far. As with B5, which had to cram all the big parts into Season 4 for fear of not having a fifth season with which to work. It's easy to see next season becoming "death of the week" TV if there's a doubt about a Season 5. No matter how compelling the drama, an on-location ensemble show is expensive. And one bump, let's go back to Ivanova abruptly leaving B5 due to real-world differences with Claudia Christian and project it to Kate leaving Lost, can really, really hurt. While on the subject, does anybody know whether the other Losties, those seen in the background in what has to be one of the world's greatest odd jobs, have names? I always thought they'd be like the guys in the red shirts in Star Trek; Jack leads four stars and two extras into the jungle. Four come back. That said, the biggest production mess in the history of movie making in terms of story, character development and conclusion became the greatest movie ever made _ Casablanca. Maybe Lost is a show that needs a little uncertainty to become classic television.

I see how it goes, RU . . . can't discuss a point reasonably, so you bring out character assassination as your rebuttal. You remind me of the guy in the Others bookclub who thought Stephen King was so far below him, he simply couldn't lower his standards to consider Carrie as literature. And the answer to your screen name is, why yes, I am.

Ok enough with the flaming.. stay on topic or stay out.

hey, even the monolith that was Gilligans Island had to bring new characters in once in a while right?
I've said it before and I'll say it again.. Lost is a mystery and we will never, ever be given all of the answers to the many mysteries that pop up. I doubt we will ever be given a good explanation of where the 'island' is. I think they have answered that with Easter Eggs and all that. Once the show stops bringing in new people and new mysteries it will BE OVER!!! so stop wishing that the producers tie up loose ends, or they'll wrap the show. Plus, Babylon 5, I mean, I'm sure its a good show, but there are like 25 types of show out there just like it, and more on the way. there is NO equal to Lost.

I completely agree Cablerunner, thanks for the nice little rant!
