Are you watching Lost??

February 6, 2009

I'm not a big TV watcher.  It's not because my social calendar is too booked, or because I have very trendy cool moral/social objections to it that make me very righteous.  I just don't have any ding dang time to watch television.  And I do have to admit that I don't like most of what airs, except for the occasional episode of American Idol and Top Chef.

But I do have one TV obsession that I will totally fess up to.  One show that I do not EVER miss NOT EVER NOT EVER, and that is “Lost”!  I've been a fan since episode one, and this show has kept me hanging on through delays and the writer's strike and indefinite season postponements.  I'm addicted to the beautiful Hawaiian scenery, the quirky plot twists and the wonderfully odd characters.  And, one more confession…I have a little bad boy crush on Sawyer.  Admit it…you do too.  ;-D  We know we should like Jack, but we do love us some Sawyer!

Bad Boy Con-Man Sawyer

Bad Boy Con-Man Sawyer

We've had 3 episodes in this season so far, and we've had some questions answered.  Miracles of all miracles!  Can you believe it?    But I still have more questions, always more questions.

  • How are these folks getting back to the island?
  • Can Ben go back?  Would he be the leader again?
  • How are they going to convince Sun to go back and leave her baby?
  • Is Claire's mom *really* as innocent as she seems?
  • Was there anything funnier than when cry baby Neal got shot with that flaming arrow?
  • Is Daniel Faraday less the benevolent, bumbling scientist, and more of a villain?
  • Is John Locke really dead?
  • Is there something menacing or weird about baby Aaron?
  • Could Sayid's hair possibly be any greasier?  Does he have a secret stash of hair gel that we don't know about?
  • Would anyone care if Charlotte, Juliet and Miles all died from this brain displacement malady?
  • What would have happened if Sawyer spoke to Kate when he saw her in the past delivering Aaron?
  • What would happen if one of the characters ran across themselves in a time travel episode?
  • Is Penny going to die at Ben's hand as he promised?
  • Why does Charles Widmore feel Ben stole his island from him?  Did he think he was the “heir to the throne” when Ben came along, perhaps?
  • Why does Richard wear so much eyeliner?  Does it have something to do with his agelessness?  If he doesn't age, why did he have to wear reading glasses to remove the bullet from Locke's leg?

If you think you know any of these answers, please share them with me!  Only 5 more days til the next episode!  Not that I'm counting.  I do have a life you know.

    Oh my gosh, I loved this post. I totally would be fine with Juliet dying. I don’t mind Charlotte or Miles, though. And did you know Richard actually DOESN’T wear eyeliner? Crazy, huh?

    Haha– YES! Brilliant post. What a beautiful pic of our boy 🙂 And thanks for reminding me of the very satisfactory laugh I got out of Neal’s fate (harsh, perhaps– but true nonetheless). As to Sayid’s hair, there’s just no way it could get greasier…

    BigSis, you know I never got into Lost. That’s one thing we can’t discuss. I hope you find more Lost fans to help you out with some of those questions! Sounds like a night time soap opera to me. Oops, Sorry! I won’t ‘dis’ on your show.

    Now, on the other hand, I might be persuaded to tune in just to see more of this Bad Boy!

    I think I watched two episodes way back in the beginning and I always liked Sawyer! Of course, I have always had a thing for bad boys!

    Jamie: Thanks so much for your comment! So, you’re sure about the eyeliner? 😉 I’m really done with Juliet. Every time I get sucked in and let my guard down with her and think she can be trusted, she shows her true colors again! So are you a Sawyer fan, or a Jack fan?

    SA: Glad you liked the photo! I kind of enjoy it myself! Had we ever seen Neal before he showed up whining all over the island in episode 2 this season? Thanks for your comment!

    LilSis: You know you can’t hate on my show! I know you aren’t a Lost fanatic, but I’m confident that you can appreciate a beautiful sight when you see it! Who knows…I might have to start a new BigSisLilSis feature called “Sawyer Saturdays”. Ha! It’s a dirty job but someone has to do it!

    Hi Grace, Ha! I’m so with you. I love this show, and have from the very beginning, no matter how bizarre the storylines get! It just makes it more fun! And we have a new episode coming up in only 3 days! Woo hoo!!
