LA X - Lost Season 6 Episodes 1&2 Review

Written by admin on February 8, 2010

I have only seen the episode once but the first thing that springs to mind when summing up LA X is Wow. Just Wow. I’m sure Darlton have a checklist for the perfect Season opener which they adhere to with each season. A bunch of new questions - check. A bunch of new mysterious characters - check. Confusion, Unpredictability, Crazyness - check, check, check. But I wouldn’t have it any other way - Oh how I’ve missed you, LOST.

Sooo, without further adieu - let’s get to it!

Woah - that was close!

Written by admin on February 3, 2010

Wow, I’ve really neglected this site since Season 5. It was my intention to review Seasons 2 & 3 during the break but things kept me major busy in the “real” world. I’d neglected it so much that I actually let the domain expire (by accident of course!). Luckily it only expired a few days [...]

Written by admin on July 26, 2009

Character Episode: Michael

Adrift

Quick Recap on Flashback:
Michael is at a lawyers office to discuss his custody battle of Walt. His lawyer tells Michael that there isn’t much chance of him winning but Michael proceeds anyway.

At the hearing Michael is asked all sorts of questions about Walt which he was unable to answer as he hasn’t been a part of his life since Susan took him away. Susans lawyer then points out that Michael doesn’t have a job and that his hospital bills were paid for by Susan. This didn’t seem to go down too well.

The Incident - Lost Season 5 Episode 16 & 17 Review

Written by admin on May 19, 2009

After watching the Finale twice and letting it all sink in I feel ready to write my review. In true Lost style they provided a Finale that was exciting, confusing, action-packed, and above all, ended with a cliffhanger! Remember when we used to wonder what was down The Hatch? We’ve come so far since then, but still Lost has managed to leave us with lots of things to ponder until Season 6!

First things first… say hello to Jacob!

The Incident

Finally, we get to meet the mystery man who was introduced to us way back in season 3 in “The Man Behind The Curtain”. Although, that particular scene in the cabin just doesn’t add up with what we know now after The Incident. In TMBTC, Ben takes Locke to the cabin and has a conversation with what seems to be an empty chair. Ben tries to convince Locke that Jacob is in the chair, and while doing so all hell breaks lose. Ben is pushed back, and we see for a split second someone actually sitting in the chair. Then Locke hears someone say “Help Me”. It’s important to note that Ben doesn’t hear this (well, that’s what we’re led to believe).

Follow The Leader - Lost Season 5 Episode 15 Review

Written by admin on May 11, 2009

What an episode this was. I’ve read alot of reviews that express dissapointment with this episode but I have to disagree - I thought this episode was fantastic. With the reveal of how Richard happened upon an injured Locke during the time jumps, the return of Sayid, and Lockes declaration that he plans on killing Jacob. Not to mention that Dr Chang now believes the Losties are from the future… what a jam-packed episode this was!

So let’s begin…

The Richard / Locke encounter

Follow The Leader

In Because You Left, during the time jumps, we see an injured Locke get help from Richard. Richard doesn’t have much time to explain what is happening to Locke, but the conversation ends like so:

The Variable - Lost Season 5 Episode 14 Review

Written by admin on May 11, 2009

Which came first, the Chicken or the Egg? Nobody knows. Lost seems to have put a new spin on that question with this episode.

Which came first…?

RICHARD: Why did you do that?

ELOISE: He had a gun on you.

RICHARD: He wasn’t gonna shoot me, Eloise.

FARADAY: Eloise. [Gasping] You knew. You always knew. [Panting] You knew this was gonna happen. You sent me here anyway.

ELOISE: Who are you?

FARADAY: I… I’m your son. [Gasps]

The Variable

So, in 1977 Eloise shoots an old Daniel Faraday who comes into their camp armed with a gun. Seems like a reasonable thing to do given that he seems threatening. As he lays dying he tells Eloise that he is her son and she sent him there knowing full well that she’d shoot him.
