Lost, Season 3, Episode 5

Wow. Is that the first time the supernatural has taken a physical role in this show?

Spoilers below.

I don't get it. Why a show focused on Eko's flashbacks only to have him die at the end of the episode?

The new blonde whose name I can't immediately remember Juliet is playing a double game of some sort to try to escape from Ben, and she's willing to suggest murder to succeed. And she's got company in wanting to escape, if the flashcards on the videotape are to be believed.

I liked the simplicity of the "What are these other TVs for?" question.

They took a lot of big steps in this episode, yes, but I felt like they stumbled quite a bit. Interesting that you liked Nikki's TV question. I thought it was the most painful scene of the season, if not the entire show!

My long, grumpy review is here.

I am also confused with respect to Sawyer . . . How and whendid he return to the beach camp with the Korean couple?

Pix, he's still in his cage, as far as we know. Are you thinking of someone else?

We saw Lostzilla as black smoke toward the end of season 2, I think.

I'm kinda bummed about Eko; I really liked the character. Thank goodness they're at least trying to tie up some loose ends. I was getting a little huffy about that.

While this was the best show of the season, it's losing me as a fan slowly. Not sure what's happening, but the story just seems too scattered for my liking. I'll stick it out through next week, but they need to do something to keep me on board for the winter.

Now Heroes, that's something completely different!

Yeah, Scott, I'm beginning to resent having to block out an hour on Wednesday nights to watch. I'm getting that "Aren't there other things I'd rather do?" feeling.
