Lost

The lost logo came up on this weeks episode and I just sat there for a minute goin "that's it? but absolutely nothing happened, how can the episode be over?"

If somebody missed this episode, here is 100% of what they need to catch up:

All of the Losties minus Jack went to Charles.

Jack went to Locke.

This is exactly what I said about the episode on Gaming Age (I may have also said that Ben, Sun, Jin, Locke and Jack also went to the hospital - making this episode nothing but three groups of people moving somewhere) and got flamed for it. Look what these retards wrote:

They responded with "You have to be fucking kidding me. You just have to." and when I explained the episode was just three groups of people moving around, one of them asked if my cable cut out.

Without the Jack/Sawyer conversation and the Kwon reunion it probably would have been the worst episode of the entire series - and it came at a time when they should be actually moving the plot forward instead of just moving the characters around.

At any rate I thought it was a far more important, plot-progressive episode than Hugo was. The groups really seemed to play their cards, Kate brought Claire over from the dark side, Sayid lied to Smokey about Desmond and let him go (you know this is what happened), Sun and Jin got back together, Widmore played a big card by directly attacking Team Smokey and blowing Jack up, and at the end Smokey thinks he's claimed Jack. Not to mention Sun X seemingly, subconsciously recognizing Locke X as Smokey, Desmond getting Claire and Jack to meet up, and a few other things.

Definitely a bit better than what we got in the last one, IMO.

We should send Aren over to them.

I agree that the episode itself wasn't good. Nothing OMFG happened, but you can't deny the plot didn't progress. Assuming the entire show is based on backgammon, it's safe to say was just an episode where all the pieces got moved around.

Come to think of it, Locke had Jack, Sawyer, Kate, Hurley, Claire, Sun, Frank, and the random temple people. Now, he just has Jack.. and Sayid? I'd say that is pretty significant. Not to mention all the Losties are about to crash into each other in the flash sideways.

I don't assume the show is based on backgammon because that would be retarded.

This whole show has degraded to moments where we're expected to place our hands on our hips, tilt our head to the side and say "OH THAT'S SO HURLEY/SAWYER/JACK!!!" and then nothing substantial ever happens.

Maybe we would care about people changing "teams" or whatever if any tangible goal/motivation had ever been established for the "teams". But no, the only thing we know is that Locke is evil or something. And that Sawyer really wants to "get off this gawd dayum island". BFD.

In the next episode Jack's eyes will well up and he'll almost cry, Sawyer will say "Son of a Bitch!," Hurley will reference pop culture, and Kate will take things far too seriously.

Aside from the Kate episode, this past episode was the worst rated of the season from the small focus group:

Scored three tickets to the Lost Live: the Final Celebration! It sold out in like minutes.

I'm sure you didn't mean to D_N_G, but I had been avoiding reading the titles of episodes in the future. I wish you had said something before posting the picture.

They referenced backgammon in the first season, I think it was even in the pilot. There have also been many theories about it being one big game of backgammon. Are you going to bitch about that now?
