I'm torn - I'm glad there's no longer the pull between this show and another of my faves, but now that it's on at 10, I have to record it and watch it tomorrow

I hope he gets hit by a bus!

*thump*


It's terrible of me but I started laughing when this happened.

The following I garnered from all the on-line fans who saw it & pay way too close attention to details. I still love em though!

Mittleos Bioscience is an anagram of "Lost Time"

Ooh! Ethan again! That guy keeps coming back. He seriously freaks me out. Now I want more Locke & Sayid dammit!

Wow... such a great episode! There's so much I can say, but for starters, how crazy is Juliet?!?!

Thumbs down

Boo to last night's episode. I fell asleep and just knew i had to wake up and watch. Unfortunately, either I'm not understanding Juliet's character or her wanting to go home was really anticlimactic. Enlighten me...

There has to be some significance with her ex husband being named Edmund Burke.

Yes, definitely. The writers know enough to not *accidentally* throw that name in the mix. Burke was a philosopher, as were Rousseau and John Locke. Rousseau and Locke were philosophers who, among other things, were advocates of religion/faith over science. Burke was in opposition to that line of thinking. Perhaps this was the writers' way of aligning Juliet with the Losties (her animosity towards her ex-hubby would eventually mirror her feelings towards the Others, which is in direct opposition to the Losties). Then again, Juliet is a fan of science herself, so that theory might be a load of crap. We won't know until the series ends, I'm sure! But, that's what makes us love Lost!

And, now we get to add David Hume to our list of Lost philosophers!

I love Lost, but it always seems to create more questions than answers!

From another message board I frequent:

The sign Charlie has propped in his guitar case when Desmond meets him on the street says "The Musical Stylings of Charlie Hieronymus Pace"

Heironymus Bosch was a dutch painter in the late 1500's whos subjects dealt with sin and moral failings. His work was highly imaginative using half beasts and demons. He was a dutchman also called Der Groots.

I think that kind of ties into Charlie's personality and what he struggles with.


If anyone remembers, the De Groots were the people who founded the Dharma Initiative. Interesting...yet more questions & fewer answers.

You are the greatest when it comes to pointing out details and lil' tie-ins.

Last night's episode was pretty lame.
