Lost Season Finale

Lost Season Finale

What the freakin hell. As I've said numerous times this season: the episode that Charlie dies in will be the last episode of Lost I watch, ever. I'm done. Besides his death being pointless and contrived there are characters that deserve death more. Such as:

  1. Jack. Oh my freaking god does Jack need to die. He's whiney and is now castrated thanks to Juliette. I would actually rather undergo a lobotomy than watch another scene with past/present/future Jack.
  2. Locke. Did we forget that he killed Boone? He has made more mistakes on the island than anyone else and is always forgiven.
  3. Michael. He has been absent this season but he did sell the other Losties out for the exchange of Walt and their supposed freedom. And hey, Walt's still on the island so we know that didn't work out so well.
  4. Bernard. I'm sorry, he's still a part of Wolfram and Hart. He is not to be trusted.
  5. Any of the Others except for Batmanuel.
Ok, so it was a good episode expect for when Charlie died needlessly. Hurley kicked major ass and so did Sawyer. Maybe I wouldn't feel so pissed at the Lost writers if Charlie died for a reason to further the plot. But no, the writers backed themselves into a corner and I'm assuming poor little Dom was bored out his mind in Hawaii.

If anyone wants my season 1 Lost dvds, please let me know. I will be happy to freecycle them.

Last Night's Lost

I did actually vow to never watch Lost again but the boys were watching it last night and I got sucked back in.

This episode was Desmond heavy. I heart Desmond but mind you, I did nod off a few times during the flashbacks.

So Desmond has yet another vision of Charlie biting the dust. This time Charlie, who apparently doesn't watch where's he's walking while he's discussing whether or not Superman is the ultimate super hero, triggers a boobie trap and gets an arrow through his throat. In the vision Desmond does nothing - not that he really could do much - and watches Charlie die. Intermingled in the vision are clips of a parachuter dangling from a tree and a vision of Penny, Desmond's trew wove.

Now just to anger those of us who love Charlie, Desmond decides that the parachuter must be Penny and in order to be reunited with Penny, he's going to let Charlie die. If that happened, this would be the last episode I ever watched. But good ole Des saves Charlie at the last minute and guess what. The parachuter isn't Penny. Ha.

Charlie now knows that Desmond almost let him die and created the whole scenario to bring him to the place where he would die. If I were him, I'd pay Sawyer to kick his ass.

Oh, and now that Jack is no longer interested, Kate is officially with Sawyer. Poor Sawyer. Kate's now on my list of Losties that need to be eaten by a polar bear.

Last Night's Lost


Wow. I'm not sure whether to love or hate last night's episode.

Nikki and Paulo are presumably dead. Buried alive after they were believed to be dead by the Losties but were really just paralyzed by a spider bite.

That was kinda of cool actually.

Maybe they can still climb out of their graves and add some reason for their presence on the show.

I've missed a few episodes but their flashbacks were completely worthless. Ok, they're jewel thieves, so what does that have to do with any other character or Dharma?

Paulo overhears one conversation between Ben and Juliet that revels nothing other than Paulo's mysterious need to always been on the toilet and why he was always so grumpy. (Poor boy was having nic fits.)

And all the revisited flashbacks with Paulo and Nikki digitally added into scenes from the previous seasons really just pissed me off. Are we that desperate for story lines? Or are we just frantically trying to pull them into the plot before they asked to be killed off?

Were Paulo and Nikki never invited to the Losties meetings? They discovered Eko's brother's plane and the Pearl before the other Losties. It would have been convenient for P&N to speak up about the 2nd hatch when Ethan was hunting them like boar and the 1st hatch was still sealed. Sure they seemed to keep to themselves, but what the hell.

AND...why do the Losties always accuse Sawyer? He had no motive to kill P&N. He hasn't killed any of the Losties. He only mortally wounded Kate's marshal AFTER said marshal asked to be killed.
  • Charlie killed Ethan (an Other).
  • Locke killed Boone.
  • Sun killed an Other.
  • Micheal killed Anna Lucia.
  • Anna Lucia killed Shannon.
Logic would say, suspect John Locke. So what if he's on the other side of the island at the moment!

Charlie, why did you have to tell Sun that you were the one that attacked her so Sawyer could get the guns in Season 2? Desmond won't be able to save you from Jin when he finds out.

I give it a 5/10. I felt sorry for Paulo's character but wasn't sorry to see him go. And if we don't start getting some answers soon, this will be my last season trying to figure this story out.

I forgot...there was special guest star appearance from Billy Dee Williams. Sweet.
