  1. Season ranking time...

     

    Season 1 is one of the best seasons on television ever, with maybe one of the best pilots ever. A great air of mystery surrounds the whole thing, and you're constantly saying "What the...?" (in a good way)

     

    Season 2 can get a little too bogged down, a lot of new characters are introduced, and the season becomes mostly about the Hatch. Some stellar episodes, though, most notably the Tailies flashback episode. Things pick up towards the end when Ben shows up and Michael starts flipping out.

     

    Season 3 told a great cohesive story, despite all the complaining from the fans. A couple throwaway episodes (Niki and Paulo), and some completely pointless flashbacks (Jacks tattoos), but the good outweighs the bad. We start to get a feel that the survivors of 815 might be just as capable of murder as the Others. A lot of nice themes are presented. Terrific finale.


  2. I loved how it was Charlie being a musician and being able to figure out the melody is what essentially saved the day. Going back to season 1, it was his being a musician and not a doctor/hunter/badass that he hated most about himself, how he felt like he had nothing to contribute to the team.


  3. Has anyone called the "hotline" that was posted on the flasher posters Pam printed out from a couple episodes ago? My little brother called it just to see what happened, and what ensued was the funniest minute of my life.

    If anyone has recorded it, check it out. I'll get ahold of my brother and post the number on here when I find it.


  4. Having recently been short of things to watch, I decided to start watching ER from the beginning again, its then I realised that Lost is nothing more then an extended episode of ER :P

     

    Christian

    Jin

    Artz

    Bernard

    Juliet

     

    I know its nothing major but I was bored, and only just realised how much ER and Lost have shared 'extra' cast over the years. It'd probably be the same for alot of shows if I was looking to find it.

     

    and all I can say about last nights episode is... the bastards.

     

    If you followed "Homicide: Life On The Street" ever, you'd see those cast members everywhere. It's kind of a hobby of mine.


  5. Yeah, the bigger deal to me was that hispanic guy didn't age at all. Perhaps some kind of longevity/fountain of youth thing that ties into healed ailments and fertility...

     

    Two groups of others? And the most recent group are NOT nice people, to take out a whole village of seemingly innocent Dharma workers...


  6. I'll second what everyone else is saying. It's a great story, and character-wise, everyone really gets developed, although it would have been nice to see a little more Marko coverage.

    The frustrating part of this movie is that it can go from deadly serious drama one minute with some great writing, to ridiculously bad and hokey lines. I think this movie maybe upped the first movie in terms of cringe inducing lines.

     

    Ocks tentacle attack in the second movie was way scarier than anything Venom did in this one.

     

    Mary Jane is a BITCH in this movie.

     

    Don't understand the hate Grace got for this role, since I thought he played the part PERFECTLY.

     

    What the HELL was up with the dancing scenes?! This was one HUGE black eye on the movie, and made for an awkward few minutes.

     

    Not a fan of the Osborn/Parker team up at the end. "Hey there buddy, grab my hand! Go get 'em!" This was forced and hokey to me.

     


  7. I loved this episode. President Noah went from creepy bad guy to jilted sympathetic lover in one episode, and I was with him the whole way. Nice to see Heller back, and not taking any guff from Bauer.

    Felt like a lot happened this week.
