6x03: "What Kate Does" Recap

Sat, 13 Feb 2010 20:42:55 +0000

A barefooted Lennon (Seriously? Barefoot? On cold stone floors and running around in the twigs and dirt outside? It hurts just to watch. I want to mail him some Birkenstocks.) Anyway, a barefooted Lennon runs (how does he not stub a toe or something? I wonder if he gets those tiny little cuts on the underside of his little toes. You know, the ones right in the crease where it bends over and you can't put a band aid on it?) to Dogen's... uh, office, I guess, to tell him Sayid's alive! And the fact that my mind is distracted with concern over this characters feet gives you some indication of how riveting I thought this episode was.

6x01/02: "LA X" Recap

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 00:59:26 +0000

As the recap show winds to a close we see yet again the awful, heart-wrenching moment where Juliet gets sucked to the depths of a devastating hole and James gets sucked to the depths of sorrow and despair; their hands ripped apart, their love story crushed and ended. In her dying moments she valiantly exhausts her last bits of strength to save the man she loves and his friends, to put right what once went so horribly wrong. Some viewers weep openly, some brush back a tear. Very few are untouched by this scene. The credits roll and the words we have waited eight months are spoken: "Previously on Lost..."

5x10: "He's Our You" Recap

Wed, 01 Apr 2009 20:26:35 +0000

This week on Lost we had a whole lot of angsty moments across the years for Sayid. What we didn't have was Locke, Desmond, a catfight, Miles, a plausible reason for Sayid's distrust of Ben, Daniel, torture, Rose & Bernard, a perspective on rural life, or any interesting kind of action for about 52 minutes.

5x09: "Namaste" Recap

Wed, 25 Mar 2009 14:37:56 +0000

Did you wonder what happened to the plane after the odd assortment of O6ers flashed away? In "Namaste" we learn that plus a lot of other stuff. For one thing, we now know that Frank is the best damn pilot southwest of the Hudson. Also, we find out who the baby is, that Sun is really handy with a paddle, and that Dharma jumpsuits come in a wide variety of sizes.

5x07: "The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham" Recap

Sun, 08 Mar 2009 14:09:23 +0000

Sorry Everyone. Here is the much anticipated recap for the previous episode of Lost. Lafleur's Recap should be coming soon as well.

This week on Lost: Our brains reel over who is good and who is bad. Meanwhile Locke gets hurt in about 5 places -- both physically and otherwise, makes out with a mango and learns that no good deed goes uninsulted.

5x06: "316" Recap

Wed, 25 Feb 2009 16:29:40 +0000

This week on Lost, all the adult O6ers are leaving on a jet plane, and they don't think they're ever coming home. Before they can go, Ben has to tie up a loose end, Jack goes to see his grandfather, and Kate forfeits her Mother-of-the-Year Award.

5x05: "This Place is Death" Recap

Tue, 17 Feb 2009 01:37:34 +0000

This week's episode was right back up to speed with lots of on-island action and excitement. We got to see some back story, a heart break, a couple of killings and a little bit of Locke's fibula. Off-island we stood around, drove for a while, and then stood around some more. Speaking of off-island, we pick up at the marina, almost where we left off last time. Sun is still watching Kate yelling at Jack and Ben when her phone rings. It's her mom and her adorable little daughter calling from Korea. She tells the little girl that she met a playmate for her named Aaron. Ji Yeon just wants her mommy to come home. Sun chokes up when she tells her she'll be there soon. She hangs up before she remembers to have her mother forward her a more recent photo of Ji Yeon. She gets out of the car and, because of the yelling, is able to sneak up on the group. Before anyone else can react she cocks her gun and points it at Ben. Jack tries to calm her down but she is still incredibly angry and believes Ben was responsible for Jin's death. Ben calmly explains that that's not true since Jin is alive and Ben can prove it.

5x04: "The Little Prince" Recap

Sun, 08 Feb 2009 20:55:56 +0000

When we saw in "Because You Left" that someone wanted blood samples to prove Kate's relationship to Aaron, it raised a lot of speculation. The big three guesses were Ben, Claire's mom and Widmore. The problem with that much guessing is that when one of them turns out right, we all end up feeling like "we knew it." Even if we didn't "know" know, we think we figured it out because the thought occurred to us before it was shown. This makes what should be a big reveal end up anticlimactic. That, and the fact that it followed the extremely popular "Jughead," is probably why this episode was a bit of a letdown for me.

Time Travel Part 2: A 50% Success Rate

Fri, 30 Jan 2009 01:42:42 +0000

Last week I wrote about my views of time travel as a Lost fan, but also as a science fiction newbie. I came to the conclusion that I could live with the time travel since it was linear. I got the impression that they were going to avoid paradoxes and use it as a story telling technique. Daniel Faraday and Pierre Chang both explained that you can not go back in time and change the past which means you can not change the future. After observing 5x03 "Jughead" I believe they have achieved one of the goals, but failed on the other.

5x03: Jughead Recap/Review

Thu, 29 Jan 2009 15:34:23 +0000

This episode title brought about a lot of curiosity. Is "Jughead" a person, place or thing? Is it the character in the Archie comics? Is it a partial shout out to a certain "moderator extraordinaire" that has a thing for feisty, green-eyed brunettes on the run? Well, now we know one thing for certain: Jughead is Da BOMB!! Um, sorry. I'm sorry. That was pretty bad, wasn't it? I... I just couldn't help myself.

The Lie: Recap/Review

Fri, 23 Jan 2009 01:15:59 +0000

As the episode fades up, we watch a couple of beers go up to the top deck of the Searcher with Frank, where the discussions about their future is being had by the O6 three years in the past. Almost everyone seems in agreement about what they need to do; even Frank. The one hold out is Hurley who really doesn't think they should lie. If they back each other up, he figures, they won't sound crazy. Sayid still thinks this is their only choice. Hurley scowls and tells him that if ever he needs his help someday, he wont give it. Flash forward to Hurley helping Sayid to safety after they were jumped in the safe house.

Because You Left: Recap/Review

Thu, 22 Jan 2009 23:12:47 +0000

Sure, he can move an island, but can Benjamin Linus convince five morally opposite castaways to return to an isolated outpost of mystery and uncertainty? In 70 hours? He has to begin somewhere. In last season's finale he starts by recruiting a drug addled and guilt ridden Jack. In this past Wednesday's Season 5 opener, the two men, and the corpse of John Locke, begin a quest to convince the other Oceanic 6-ers to go baaaack to the island.

A Lost 5.01 and 5.02 Review

Tue, 30 Dec 2008 04:39:55 +0000

I'd love to be sitting here, telling you all my review of the first episodes of season 5 of Lost, but I am not among the lucky (or not so lucky) screeners who get to see the episode early in order to write about it. Lucky for us, we know someone who does have that privilege. If you follow the link below you can read DocArzt's review of episode 5.01 "Because You Left" & 5.02 "The Lie". Doc doesn't reveal any major plot points of the episode or spoilers, however if you are someone who avoids all spoilers no matter what, you might want to skip this article. Otherwise, give it a read. If you're like me, it'll just make you watch your clock even more over the next 22 days.

CastawayCayley's Favorite Finale Moments

Fri, 20 Jun 2008 17:25:57 +0000

There was so much to talk about in the finale of Season Four that I didn't know where to begin. It wasn't a perfect episode, but all in all I really enjoyed it. So I finally decided to narrow down what I wanted to say to a list of my favorite ten scenes. You may agree with some or all of these choices, or you may think I must have watched a completely different show. After the jump, you'll see what I considered the highlights of all three parts of "There's No Place Like Home."
