They all die in the end. Island turns out to be a giant turtle that suddenly decides to dive. It's pretty anti-climactic.
God is it that time again. You know what? I'm not even going to bother. Every week a cliffhanger, every week a bunch of vaguely explained rubbish twisted around an hour of schmaltzy twaddle. The scriptwriters haven't a clue where it's going and the audience is never going to find out. The whole thing has become a parody of itself.
Average episode: Jack and that woman who looks like she's been stung by wasps in a will they won't they story, fatman hiding food, Lock says something mysterious, Sawyer hides something and then gives it back. Flashback of one character doing something vaguely, spookily related to the flashback of someone else. Is that the fatman on TV in the background? Is that someone talking to somebody elses aunt there? O-ho! What could it all mean? End of the episode it is intimated that they may all possibly be chimpazees in a lab who are being experimented on to make them think they are humans on an island, but almost certainly are not. The Indian guy who's supposed to be Iraqi sees the ghost of a manatee. Everyone realises its Christmas so make a giant Santa out of sand which they all sing carols around while holding candles. The fatman does a crap in the shape of the numbers. Fin. Then there won't be another episode for 6 weeks because of the Superbowl or something.
I guess I'll watch it.

yeah, this is my dilemma as well.. i've been saying ever since series 2 that i doubt we'll ever find out what's going on.. the producers have all but said the same, and they seem to openly admit that they are making it up as they go along..Monquey said:
but, like you, i will end up watching it lol..
Hahahaha. It's funny 'cos it's true.Monquey said:
I do love it though, especially the woman who looks like she's being stung by wasps in a will they won't they story (you probably didn't mean for us to read it that way, but it makes your diatribe even funnier if you do).
Well, all you Lost haters have gone one over on us fans (well, those of us fans without Sky). Sky have bought the 3rd series, which starts on Sky 1 next month, so I'll have to wait for the DVDs and pay £20 per half-series or what ever it is. I only found out today. Ruined my day that has.
Bastards.

really?? brilliant (not the "ruining your day bit," lol).. in that case, i think i'll stop downloading them and just watch it when it comes on sky..jimbob23 said:
jimbob, you should get an xbox (£25 off ebay) and mod it.. that's what i did, and now i have a very nice n cheap media centre in my living room, which streams media files wirelessly from my bedroom PC.. Lost airs in america on tuesday nights, i download it about an hour after that, then i can watch it in full HDTV glory at my leisure
it's great for getting all the throwaway american crap that i'm too much of a zealot to wait for.. The Nine, Heroes, new Family Guy, American Dad, Prison Break, etc
BBC
You knows it
I don't think i've ever watched a single episode of any of these or sparono's or 24 or any of the channel 4 yank shiz. my mate tried to get me to watch his 24 dvd once and i just couldn't get into it. it's like my mind is programmed to switch off to these programs. by the sound of this thread that's a good thing!dirtybobby said:it's great for getting all the throwaway american crap that i'm too much of a zealot to wait for..

Jimbob - you could always ask someone you know with Sky to record it for you.
