Tonight’s episode: He’s Our You
Well, that didn’t take long. Looks like the survivors who love to hate each other are already at each other’s throats after only one episode! And it looks like Sayid might try offing Ben when he’s a child… doesn’t Sayid know that that will tear the space time continuum asunder?!
Lost has been so good this season. I haven’t been so excited about a new episode since season one.
Speculations, theories, reactions, live blogs, you know the drill.
Even though I’m six episodes behind and don’t have a frakking clue what’s going on I may just jump right in again tonight. Or, I could download the ones I’ve missed and try to catch up over the next week or so.
Suggestions appreciated.
I’d go the download route, this season has been so good.
Agreed. You really don’t want to miss any of this season.
If you missed Battlestar guys….now you can come on and let go of tension 🙂
I have a sneaking suspicion that Sayid is going to die in this episode. No spoilers read or anything, just a hunch.
Will do, Mr. Kilpatrick, Mr. Duck.
Now, to isohunt….er, iTunes. Yeah, iTunes.
*breaths heavy*
My cable went out….please….please come back on in 5mins…
Better Off Ted is some funny shit.
Oh thank god! Came back on. Whew!
Sayid becomes a killing machine this episode. Let the arson begin.
chicken!
Just like my childhood
Well I guess we know which one is Sayid
Sayid hates chicken.
Yet another book that describes the series
Ben is giving out orders at a very young age
the casting of little ben is great
which book was it?
also, young ben is definitely an awesome actor match up for old ben.
Castle is actually a lot of fun.
Damn, I thought we were done with flashbacks.
Or at least being inventive with them
sayid the assassin is awesome.
The Russian outdoor set is pretty.
Well I guess we have to figure out why Sayid stopped being Ben’s partner…..
What the hll is Ben wearing?
Thanks for taking the handcuffs off…
What’s with the chainsaw guys?
"mission accomplished" said to an iraqi. nice.
Why doesnt he just lie and state he’s having problems with The Others?
Oh right….there wouldnt be an episode then
man, sad as hell.
Yeah like Sayid is gonna take a beating…
i LOVE sayid. of course he’s not going to play along with this insane shit. awesome.
Why isn’t this live blog poppin’?
Hurley is just nothing but funny one-liners this season
NO! I DON’T CARE ABOUT BREAKING NEWS!
i just had a tornado warning interrupt the show. It’s not even raining!
Waterboarding…how topical…
I dont remember his dad being that abusive…
Just drunk…
‘I think he was murdered’-Ben
Badass
Guessing this is why Sayid isnt doing anything; he doesnt want to prove Ben right.
this episode has been incredible so far. jesus.
Great….creepy music to go with the torture…
Aw jeez….what’s gonna happen!?
Who is this guy!?
He’s creepier then Ben…
The "He’s Our You" line was brilliant. Anything happen during the Kate/Jack/Hurley scene?
Russell Crowe with Eddie Vedder hair. Nice.
fuck sawyer.
If I had asthma I wouldn’t trust very arrogant sillhouettes for suggestions.
In the Motherhood: A New Comedy we can all Relate to…right? right?
Another love interest for Sayid…
What’s this his 3rd one?
Smooth with the ladies, especially asking if she’s a prositute.
is that the same chick who arrested him?
Sayid sounds like a little kid
"Are you a prostitute?"
"Um, no. What do you do for a living?"
"I kill people."
This interrogation scene is amazing.
So this is what being high is like…
Ann Arbor?
Well it looks my theory at the beginning of the hour is coming true…
jesus. i hope sawyer does something soon.
Gald we arent really focusing on this stupid love trapezoid (I prefer that over square), cause I would totally hate to see Sawyer and Kate back together
Sorry my mistake; this is Sayid’s 4th love interest
saw that coming
@nickmaynard: Good call on the girl
Obvious!
SHIT YES!
Flaming VW of death!
Random explosions!
He isnt going to kill a kid is he?
@TheNextChampion I highly doubt it. His delivery on "That’s Why I’m Here." was great.
@projekitidiot: Yeah but…he definitely isnt showing emotions on whether he will or wont
Why does Heinberg want to do this more than Young Avengers (Grey’s Anatomy).
This is interesting.
Sayid is really scared right now….
and is shitting himself that Ben is here
What’s he doing!?
WHHHHHHAAAAAATTTTT!!!!?????
Wow, I had not even an inkling of suspicion that the show would go there. But it just did. Oh my god.
HOLY SHIT!
HOLY SHIT!!!!!
They just showed a small boy getting shot! Jesus…
WTF
I thought they would, then when they did I couldn’t believe it…
… and with that Lord Voldemort triumphed. Harry Potter was killed and network TV was saved by the greatest program of all time. I love lost.
I find myself not liking Jack and Kate right now. Is that just me?
@DarthDuck – You don’t like them because they only had 5 minutes of screen time? The last two episodes havent’ been much about them.
@DarthDuck: I’m in the same boat man. But it’s not just over this season; ever since Season three they have just become unlikable to me. Cant pinpoint why though….well I can for Kate, but I’ve established why for 3 weeks now.
This was a good episode, but not the best. It’s one of those plots where everything could’ve been resolved in the first few minutes. I mean if Sayid is trying to prove he isnt a killer….why not lie and go along with Sawyer’s plan? But the last lines pretty much stated what Sayid is: ‘I am a killer’….plain and simple. Great ending, still cant believe they showed on national tv a little boy getting shot…
I’ve never liked Jack or Kate. Hop on the Jack/Kate bandwagon!
The Jack/Kate hate this week is perplexing.
Great episode. I love Sayid. His solo episodes are always excellent.
The producers have said the series will now be returning to the flashback format of earlier seasons. As far as the Jack hate, I think it comes from the character arc they’ve given him. He started as the natural hero then became Mr. Obstinately Logical who would accept that anything weird is happening on the island. Then he became the hyper emotional guy. But you always tear down heroes before redeeming them so who knows where he’ll end up. I think fan Kate Hate comes from her bouncing between Jack and Sawyer.
I’m hoping for a cool April Fools episode where they discover a rusting BSG viper buried under the Black Rock.
@Tad: That’s a good reasoning why the hate on Jack.
I mean I dont like the character ever since season 3…..where he just became a hard nosed leader and he wouldnt listen to anybody. Not just Locke, he wouldnt listen to ANYBODY. Sawyer was right in the previous episode; he was a crappy leader who didnt think things threw when things were tough.
Again with Kate….I wont explain again for the last 3 episodes I’ve explained why I hate Kate so much. (But that’s been since season one and not season three like Jack)
Hating Jack is very 2006.
Hating Jack never goes out of style.
I love Jack.
I don’t hate Jack on the whole. Just at the moment. Maybe it the lack of screentime, or maybe it’s seeing him struggle when he’s not in control.
Not a hater by any means…
MAN! this is a great season. Having watched all the previous seasons on DVD, in great big accelerated chunks, I feel as if I have lucked into what might be the best season of this show to watch episodically.
I have question, for all y’all out there in the iFanboy community, who have been keeping up with the show on an episode by episode basis since the first season. Which season has been your favorite?
@Adam: Season One is still my favorite.
To me it would be a tie between Season One or Three. The third season would take it if it wasn’t for the painfully slow beginning.
I’ve realized with this season I’ve stopped trying to guess what’s going to happen next. With pervious seasons I’d always try and guess where it’s going. Now ,they wrap up things so fast it’s like a second after you figure it out they tell you, I love it! Also, this season it seems like anything can happen, I frankly wouldn’t even begin to guess where these writers are going, yet again, I love it!
@Adam – Season 3. The leap forward in time at the end after all those flashbacks was genius. Still one of the most mind-blowing TV moments I’ve ever experienced.
