Lost Season 6 - RE: LA X

did you guys see the willy wonka themed ad for next week's episode? they've really been on fire with those lately.

liked michael showing hurley the ocean view of the other island, reminded me of christian showing jack the water in the very first season.

That "Next Week on Lost" thing was buck-ass wild, for sure.

Jorge Garcia is just about the worst actor in a major tv series ever. Good thing his character is lovable and cuddly.

xpost srsly!

yeah that thing was hilarious. at this rate the ad for the finale is gonna be the Rocky Horror soundtrack or something.

first scene w/ Hurley at the grave got me kinda choked up tbh.

LIBBY!!! I have waited years!
Jack is now going to operate on alt-Locke aye?
Fun parallel of Desmond and Locke hurting each other.
Does Desmond turn the wheel or does Vincent save him, Lassie style?

Also, I think Hurley found Adam & Eve's stones at the campsite..

Fun parallel of Desmond and Locke hurting each other.

Best part of the whole episode.

i hope they keep utilizing the flash sideways for more opportunities at crazy sudden violence n shit

desmond to hurley: go with your gut

yeah awesome WTF ending haha

i wish there was more Libby backstory from the real universe, but still I was definitely happy to see her get an episode, even in the sideways universe

oh cool they "explained" the whispers

boom ilana, bye

never get sick of those jaw dropping random deaths

great episode and so glad they knocked off ilana. also dug hurley's hair really gettin nappy as he asserted himself. iron like a lion.

Jack is now going to operate on alt-Locke aye?

ooh good call

Maybe they will kiss and flashback to their secret perfect love.

lol @ this show for establishing that richard and jack don't get blown up by dynamite due to ~fate~, then sending ilana to get it because idk they were tired or something.

Poor hot dead Ilana. :(

good ep altho the whole true love angle is retarded. also people who die on the island end up in......... purgatory!

So probably wheelchair Locke's near death exp. provoked either Island memories or allowed Smokey to slip into him.

When Jack's about to operate on him he'll start shouting "Why do you find it so hard to believe!"

Uh, so let's see--Sawyer & Miles will arrest Desmond, maybe after interviewing Hugo. Des will help awaken Sawyer's luv-memories of Juliet. And then, uh, more stuff happens.

The whisper explanation was kind of funny. Almost like a bone tossed to all the "I want answers!" people. Hurley should walk around saying stuff like, "So that's why the Others were doing all that fertility stuff," or "So that's why those Dharma drops are still happening."

des smugly driving away from hugo & libby was out of some cheesy 80s anthology show

Why does Des have to go through this whole circuitous approach to get people to remember their alt-selves? I know people probably wouldn't believe him if he directly told them what was happening, but it feels more plausible than hanging around Mr. Cluck's in the hopes that Hurley needs your advice about a woman who thinks she knows him from somewhere.

there were at least two shade-tippin' scenes by Desmond last night

ilana blowing herself up made me LOL out of surprise

speaking of LOLing, I turned on the TV a few minutes early last night and so saw the very end of Dancing With the Stars, and the couple who were kicked off were slow-dancing for their "farewell dance" and then all of a sudden the music picked up and turned into a really bad Broadway-style version of "We're Not Gonna Take It" and the guy started doing a very awkward faster dance with lots of arm flailing and boogying and for some reason this struck me as hilarious and I couldn't stop laughing. I was trying to stop because LOST was starting and I didn't want to miss anything but every time I thought of the stupid song and the dude's terrible impromptu dance I started laughing again, until I was crying.

I saw that, too, and thought it was weird, but mostly because "Broadway-style version of 'We're Not Gonna Take It'" also sums up Jimmy Fallon's Glee parody (ft. the cast of Parks and Recreation) from a couple months ago.

how did they expect him to dance to we're not gonna take it, though? he had to get extreme.

lol'd @ this

how could you not love secret agent Desmond

desmond has been kidnapped, blasted with electromagnetism, submerged underwater in a car, pushed into a well in the past two episodes

Has Jack met fake Locke before? Because at the end I got the feeling from that look on his face that he was seeing his dad.

huh

fake locke has had a habit of asking people who meet him who he is, and getting told either "locke" or "you look like locke but...", so you could be on to something.

jack has never personally encountered his father on the island, has he? only fleeting glimpses. why would he then recognize the smoke monster as locke as his father?

i got the feeling jack was thinking "oh shit this was a mistake"

I got the feeling he was thinking "DOH DOH DUH DUH I'M JACK DUH DUH DUUUH"

(he is dumb)

i was confused at the beginning of the episode because i thought "michael" was just "smokey"--did we decide that smokey can only appear as locke now? why does dead michael think he knows what's best for anyone?

yeah Ilana specifically said that smokey was trapped in Locke's body now that Jacob was dead, although I forgot about that when Michael appeared and thought he was smoke dude for a while.

there were at least two shade-tippin' scenes by Desmond last night

I'm envisioning an 80s-era rom-com movie poster w/ shade-tippin Des in the seated in his car in the foreground w/ Hugo & Libby sitting on a park bench or something in the background - Hugo w/ a "don't look at me" expression & Libby w/ a knowing smile that says "that's so Hugo."

I'm thinking they made Ilana's character extra-obnoxious in the opening scenes, just so that her sudden demise would be that much more satisfying & hilarious.

she was really bangin her handbag around just after hurl made sure to remind us how unstable the dynamite was - was expecting it. not as obvious as so many surprises tho and did quite enjoyed it

but GO WITH YOUR GUT!

Jack has seen Christian on the island and off the island.

Actually, I bet we'll see Christian in the next episode since everything seems set up for it to be a Jack-heavy episode.

What is with all the little woodsy children wandering around the island, smirking at people.

a technique they perfected with frogurt.

i'm imagining the lost guys informing desmond's actor at the beginning of season five, "so, you're going to be sitting out the next season and a half. but don't worry - when you come back, you make the show awesome again."

Jack has seen Christian on the island and off the island.
I think cutty means Jack has never had a proper meeting with Christian, which to my memory is true. Christian spoke to him once off island, but never on island.

was the kid last night different from the kid we'd seen before?

same kid, tho he looked a little older?

i would have rather had no explanation for the ghost whispers than the weak shit we got

I got the feeling he was thinking "DOH DOH DUH DUH I'M JACK DUH DUH DUUUH"

LOL

xp OTFM - liked this ep, but that was some bs

like it should be pretty obv when dead Mike emerges from the whispers & swirling breeze that we're dealing w/ some island ghosts, but then to have Hugo actually say the words "oh, so that's what the whispers are" ...
