TV: Lost





GENRE:
Drama/Sci-Fi/Adventure

DAY&TIME: Tuesday 9pm

NETWORK: ABC

SEASON: Six

STARRING: Matthew Fox (Party of Five),

Josh Holloway (newcomer) Terry O’Quinn (Alias)

SHOW RUNNERS: Damon Lindelof (Crossing Jordan)

& Carlton Cuse (Nash Bridges)

PLOT: Survivors of a plane crash deal with a mysterious remote island that messes with time and space.

GENERAL THOUGHTS: This is the best show on TV in my opinion. It keeps you guessing and theorizing and doesn’t dumb things down. Great cast, great acting, great visuals and great mythology.

FIVE QUESTIONS I WANTED ANSWERED:

1 What is the significance of the numbers 4 8 15 16 23 42? Hope it’s not just a neat thing to look for in episodes.

2 Why were these people chosen (how are they connected)? I’m thinking Christian Shepherd has something to do with it. But why?

3 What is the Black Smoke? Sure it’s a security system but it also judges people and who controls it?

4 What’s the deal with Richard and Desmond? Why does Richard never age and why is Desmond so important with his time-traveling skills?

5 Who is Jacob and the “Man in Black”? I hope they give the Man in Black a name (like Esau or something). Why does everything seem to hitch on these two individuals.

UPCOMING REVIEW: The Lovely Bones

Best show on television by far. Loved the opening episodes, answering questions, creating more, that's just what they do best. Also, secretly happy about the death of Juliet. No more mushy Sawyer. Looking forward to hear your take on the season opener.
