I'm LOST again!

Ah - tonight is the night I've been waiting some 8 months for... LOST is back. My only t.v. obsession.
Last night they rebroadcast the season finale from way way back when, complete with running explanations that came up in a bar along the bottom, which was very clever - and ingenious way to remind us all of about the plots and subplots without interrupting the action or making us sit through a retrospective.

I'm glad I tuned in because I'd forgotten so many details...

Like how John Locke was shot and left to die by Ben (who will always be Henry Gale to me). I really hope he figures out a way to redeem himself because I've always had a soft-spot for Locke -- but his actions of late are bit 'out there'. But it's interesting to see the faith/science undercurrent between him and Jack.

That Charlie 'sacrificed' himself. I'm probably the only person in the world who was happy to see the ex-hobbit kick it. My husband was quiet disgusted at my glee when Charlie Pace took his last annoying little breathe, until I reminded him that
A) he's just a t.v. character and
B) in real life, he's still living in Hawaii banging Evangeline Lily.
That shut him up.

That Hurly saved Sayid, Bernard and Jin -- making me think that perhaps this really is all in Hurley's mind - a la John Cusack in 'Identity'.

And the James 'Sawyer' Ford is so damn sexy! Perfect example of the alpha male.
I'd stay happily stranded on that guy's island ;)

I don't watch Lost, well I've see few episodes like what happened to the dudes that went off on the boat??? Do you ever know what happened to them?

Uh-oh, Wylie... Sawyer's all dirty...

Carrie Lofty - your one-liner put the naughtiest most delicious thoughts into my head...
I think I need a cigarette!!

Amy - In a word, no. But really, your question is akin to asking someone to explain quantum physics in 5 words or less. It's that complicated.
If you ever want to start from the beginning, I have Season One on DVD and I'm happy to lend.

Vicky - if that hot pic of Sawyer doesn't compel you to plant your butt on the sofa every Thursday night, then I'm afraid you're LOST to me...
hehehehehehe

Kristy & Diane - I was NOT disappointed. I'm so glad it's back!! Best line was Sawyer's: "Doin' what I always do, Freckles. Surviving."

Julia - you watch Lost too??

Yes me too I really enjoy this show and have watched it every season so far. It's going to be interesting to see what the new shows are going to be. :-) My hubby doesn't like the show but he puts up with it, lol.

I've never seen Lost, but I have watched a few episodes of Gilligan's island. Isn't it much the same sort of thing, without a laugh track?
