A giant island ogre comes frolicking onto the Losties beach. This thing is truly ugly, wild hair and drool flying from it’s mouth, and it bounds effortlessly past everyone, who are screaming in terror, and heads straight for Sawyer’s tent where he tears the whole thing to the ground and rummages around in his secret stash. After 20 minutes of rummaging, it sits back, with his treasure in hand: An Apollo bar.

Scott: “Oh my god. That’s Hurley…” *camera does extreme close up of Scott and we see a lone booger hanging out of his nose.*

*booom*

LOST

Second, you found the finale dissappointing? Well, maybe you would know just cause you watched more shows like this than I (Alias, X Files, Webster), but I thought the finale was great. You have till Monday to be out of the apartment.

For the record, Sayid said, “I don’t know what is more disquieting. What happened to the rest of the statue, or the fact that it has four toes.”

Sayid does have great delivery, but, call me a sucker for easy-going overweight dudes, I think Hurley still holds the title for best comic relief.

At Libby’s funeral. *Sobbing* “Libby, was… a psychologist.” *Sobs* “Or a psychiatrist. I don’t really know.”

Hurley (played by an entirely different actor) is alone in the woods eating from a Dharma Initiative 5 gallon drum of mayonaise. He hears some rustling in the jungle and sees Arnst hiding in the brush. He continues to eat from the mayonaise drum. Arnst slowly retreats into the jungle.

*boooom*

LOST

*televisions turning off all accross the country*

Rose and Bernard are having a picnic. They are arguing. Something lame like Bernard has bad gas, or Rose is starting to gain weight. They are then violently eaten by a polar bear, in a long, graphic scene that lasts several minutes longer than it should.

*Hank’s trombone sound effect - long version*

If they haven’t revealed it yet, you guys have any predictions? Are they still alive? Will it end up being another situation were the people in Pearl are from another characters backstory. Like maybe Jack’s exwife or Kate’s dad.

Good observation though. What does it all mean? Jack. Beanie. Dharma. Greg. Drive Shaft.

I’m pretty sure that has nothing to do with the mysteries of LOST. Still worth mentioning…

Disapointments with the finale:

We’re probably never going to learn about Libby’s back story. I didn’t care for her character, but the end of the Hurley episode with her in it was one of the freakiest things in Season 2. I mean we all remember exactly where we were when we saw Libby in the insane asylum. (I was curled up in a ball under our coffee table eating a bowl of Cheerios.)

I think the relatively weak finale proves that shows like this cannot sustain the same level of interest for more than 3 seasons. I think next season will be the last any of us watch, and we will probably stop watching midway through. The reason: too many forgotten plot elements that just get forgotten or changed, or forgotten. Too many characters showing up in back stories that does not make any sense. Hey it’s Jack’s dad! Hey it’s that girl that Sayid loved! Hey it’s that polar bear! Two whole seasons have passed and neither we, nor the characters, have any idea what they all have in common.

Jin should have learned English by now. Next season is going to be another of him just saying “Michael”, “Daddy-O”, and “We are everybody”.

Too many hatches. Hatches are soooo Season 1.

Locke is no longer cool.

Why hasn’t Hurely died yet?

I don’t understand those last couple of sentances, but it sure sounds crazy. My favorite line of the last episode, btw, was when Sayid says something like “I do not know what is more disconcerting: where the statue came from, or the fact that it has 4 toes.” hahaha, oh Sayid, you crazy bastard! He has the best delivery of anyone on the show.

My primary Lost resource is Television Without Pity:

It takes about a week for show recaps to publish, but they are hilarious and often times point out things that I miss. If you’re ever rewatching seasons 1 and 2 this summer, I recommend reading the recaps after each episode or a group of episodes. I think they pointed out that in one of the first 3 episodes of season 2, when Sawyer and Michael are stuck on a piece of their boat and a shark swims by, there is a Dharma Initiative logo on the Shark’s tail. Luckily I had downloaded the episode so I could go back and pause it, and it was there! I flipped out after that haha.

Also the Wikipedia category of Lost is pretty cool:
