The Wabbit Killer
I really don’t even know where to begin with this episode, and I especially can’t seem to form a coherent thought about what I just saw. So here some random ramblings:
Whenever I hear the “here comes a flashback” swooshing sound, I dread it. Can we just forget the flashbacks and live in the present. Maybe then something could actually happen.
The violence is now completely ridiculous. I realize it’s a TV show and not reality, but if you get beat in the face that much, your face would be so swollen you’d be blind (if you even survived). Yet people are pummeled silly in the face and just shake it off 2 or 3 times an episode.
Clementine? Oh ya, that’s a really popular baby name these days.
Kate, can you please try to have more than one expression on your face in an episode?
The writers were obviously missing having a beeping countdown in the script, so they added the heart rate monitor as the new beeping countdown. Luckily it appears it was just for this episode and it won’t be dragged out for 3 more seasons.

when are they going to shoot some more people?
maybe that will end it…
I love him, Yes, I love him . . . fake . . . not really.
Your heart will explode . . . fake . . . not really.
I am stuck in a cage and may be killed . . . fake . . . not really, I can simply slide through the bars at the top. I don’t know why I never noticed that before.
Lost is an excellent show . . . fake . . . not really.
You are correct there can be no coherent thought after watching that episode. I am hooked and that is the saddest part of all. I have this false hope that Lost will suddenly be all that it could be.
What a mockery…So I sat down last evening to watch ep 4 of season 3 of TV’s hit Lost. Knowing that there were only 3 eps left untill the big mid-season cliffhanger I figured something was going to really happen. Ohh wait, I forgot, Lost Sucks, nothing ever happens, and cliffhangers are never addressed…anyway. We had a mock-pacemaker put into Sawyer (shouldn’t Sawyer have wondered how they got a pacemaker on the island, put it in, and left him with no scar?), a mock execution of a bunny with a #8 painted on its ass, and a mock episode of ER with Jack. There was one thing that actually happenned: Kate escaped-only to re-capture herself and lock herself back up in the cage. Thus, the re-locking up cancelled out the escape, so once again, nothing happenned. I did learn that you can make a lighting rod with a golf club and ground it into sand with bamboo. Are the writers serious. I did keep a few stats. Lost has a total of 15 producers: 6 executive producers, 3 co-executive producers, 4 supervising producers, and 2 regular producers. How many producers does it take to run a show into the ground? Christ. There was 2min and 45 seconds of staring. Now, mind you I timed only staring without dialogue present. This was staring that was just extremely creepy and unrealistic. I did not time unnatural/unrealistic staring between comments while talking to another actor. If I would have added that in it would have been closer to 6 min. The worste offenders were Jack and Desmond. The staring (in at ep that really didnt have as much staring as usual) accounted for 6% of the episode (adjusted for the extra commercials).OUT
A couple of years ago “Lost” was so exciting and new, finally an intelligent suspensul tv show and sadly now after seeing the 4 episodes this season I can help but agree that LOST has lost it, it became a caricature of itself and now simpy SUCKS.
The story seems to go nowhere because the people behind it in my opinion are simply winging it.
To me it turned the corner this season and is going downhill fast
I do believe that the revelation of a second island adjacent to the one where the castaways are stranded marks this episode as when “Lost” officially jumped the shark.
I mean, the crazy French woman has been living on the island for years and years, and she has never brought it up??
“Comment t’allez vous, Mme Rousseau?”
“Tres bien, merci…oh by zee way, I forgot to menshone, did you know there eez a second island?”
“Mon dieu!!!!! Sacre bleu!!!”
Oh yes (I am stifling a snicker) the Others also apparently are in possession of a submarine.
So we got a two-fer this eppie
wat a bunch of losers u guyz r
quit sitting on ur fat arse nd actually do sumfing worth while, at least the show is interesting unlike u boring shit heads rite nw “oh lost sux, its soo bad” Giv me a break!
Learn to spell while you spout off nonsense for your own plezr dikwed…
You’re neither cute or informative.
Lost is only baiting viewers with promos and no content that backs the marketing: it’s called theft and deception. The writers and producers are not giving a quality product that viewers deserve for the loyalty of watching and lining their pockets…pay attention KC.
I have to give this episode one bit of credit. The “other” bitch actually died, & Jack didn’t miraculously save her. But Sawyer gets the crap beat out of him again, how does his face maintain its shape, wasn’t he just slammed in the face with the butt of a machine gun? People don’t usually survive a blow like that much less without broken cheekbones, major scarring, & loss of blood.
I hate it when people give the writers so much credit and vision for this show. I think the viewers and theorists have more influence over the outcome than they think.
How many theories have they shot down? Probably all or most of them, especially the obvious ones. Then 5 minutes later they’re cursing themselves because they have to put the thinking caps back on.
Remember, TV is not usually about art or vision, it’s about making money. Why would Lost be any different?
Cheers.
It looks like Tyler really had to struggle this week to write something negative about the show. When you have to say that Clementine is not a common name these days, therefore the show sucks, that is really reaching for it.
Maybe i should take over, because even though I like the show, I can do better than that.
Great site. I found it by googling. Anybody wonder why I was googling “lost sucks” Man I have come to hate this show. I thought season 1 was brilliant but it is just stupin now. Hey, think thay will ever explain why Walt was “special”, think again. For every question thay answer they ask two more. It’s all so convoluted I don’t care anymore. One of the things that bothers me the most is that the writers will turn a character into someone totally different for 1 episode because it meets their needs. Remember when Hurley freaked out for 1 episode and was back to normal the next. What about Charlie’s freak out episode? Also, they have turned Jack into the most annoying character. I’ve gotten to where I really don’t care for most of the characters anymore. I have become convinced that they will not answer many of the questions.
And yes I agree, NOTHING EVER HAPPENS.
After last weeks episode I have deleted the season pass from my Tivo. I refuse to give more hours of my life the the writers and producers of Lost. I will continue to come here because I know I can get the 1 paragraph summary that quickly sums up what happened(or didn’t happen)
Keep up the great work!
I liked season 1 and 2 quite a bit but this current season is just one big let down. The “Others” were cool because they were mysterious. Almost supernatural. Well, now they’re just plain dumb. And the reason I think I liked the first two seasons so much was because of Locke and Said. I’ve come to realize this because, well, I’m sick and tired of Jack, Kate and Sawyer. I know these cats are supposed to be the stars but I could give a rip about them. I can’t stand Kate the most and she’s supposed to be the point of this retarded love triangle? She’s an idiot. And Sawyer’s an even bigger idiot. He’s supposed to be soooo slick but he doesn’t even know the basics that would entail installing a pacemaker? The procedure doesn’t leave you tiny pin prick, dude.
If I were Jack I would have went name, rank and passenger number. It’s obvious they want you from something! That means you have something called “leverage.” Er duh!
I’m glad to see Locke again. Hopefully he’ll get this show going again because he’s the only one who seems to be doing anything that makes sense.
Man, you really need to get a life. For someone who thinks a show sucks so much, you sure spend a lot of time on it! Are you a masochist, or just stupid?

15! Great post!
Whoop!!! Go JohnnyBlo i couldnt agree more with you, these pepz need to get a life, dey seem to talk about da show alot considering they hate it!
I am amazed at the people who live from week to week just to watch this show. It is the most intellectually insulting show I have ever seen.
What happened to Season One’s monsters? I thought it was all about the young blonde’s baby. Or is it all happening inside Hurley’s mind? Oh wait, its about the hatch/Darma Initiative. And the back stories make me puke!
I’ve never seen a show that abandons storylines so much as this one, and yet idiots just keep watching. I suffer though it weekly because my family watches it, and I don’t want to be a party pooper. Yes, I guess that means I live with idiots! Help!
I’ll be glad and will celebrate when this show bites the dust. Wake up America! There’s better entertainment in a third grade farting contest! Lost oh so sucks. I hate it! LOST SUCKS!!!!!!!!
Before I permanently gave up on Lost (two weeks ago), I would record it and then watch it later. This allowed me to fast forward through all the flashbacks, which, in turn, cut the show length in half.
Ugh… I have no idea why i keep watch this show. For the last week I’ve been watching the show online. Obviously I started with season one.. which i have to admit was pretty interesting. Season 2 and 3 were meh ok.. and season 4 is turning out to be okish..
My main problem with the show are the 5 main chars. Jack the pansy whine ass, Kate the slut bag retard, Locke the psycho bible thumper. sawyer the raspy red neck and Clair/Emily the annoying chick who cant act. During the first season I was like wow…these Characters are pretty interesting, but as the series went on.. i began to hate them. Nothing new ever happens .. they are the same people just in different scenarios. No char development/evolution what so ever. You would think that after 100 days on a random island with 40 people, you would start to trust one another, you would start to develop friendships and bonds… But no. In every episode there is constant bickering/bitching/whining about the same old crap. here is a basic run down of every episode ive ever seen.
*explosions* *screams* *guns shooting*
jack: OMG Kate and sawyer are talking to each other! /angry stare /cry
Sawyer: -in raspy voice- hai jack! /smirk /wink at kate /angry stare
Kate: Omg hai sawyer /kiss /sex -5 mins later- Omg hai jack! /kiss /sex /angry stare
Clair: Omg wheres my baby!? wheres Aaron!?! OMG Wheres my baby!? /angry stare
Locke: The Island told me to do it! The island loves me! /coombaya /cry /angry stare
*more explosions, guns and screaming*
I have to say do like Sun and Jin.. I think they are cool. Its probably cause they don’t talk much.. and when they do.. its usually in Korean and I cant understand them. Perhaps i should actually read the subtitles aye? meh…
Sigh i hope in season 5 they kill off all the main chars and totally start from scratch this has to be one of the worst shows ive ever seen. Its started out strong.. now its just ass… And for god sakes can they kill off Michael already!?!?!?? They killed of Charlie.. which was one of the high points of the show..so for that i must thank them.
Only time will tell if this shows going to continue to be a gigantic failboat of epic proportions. Im not gonna hold my breath.
