Please, make it stop.
Usually I am mildly amused by each new episode but this last one just pissed me off. First of all the previews clearly stated “3 of the biggest Lost mysteries revealed”. OK, maybe I blinked and missed them, but can someone please explain what was revealed?!?! That they have freaking backyards? Are you kidding me? Nice job Lost producers.
Another new character?!? For the love of everything holy, please no more characters! I love that she is the sheriff, but not really. Kind of like the whole show: it’s TV show but not really.
Another thing that pissed me off is that Sawyer and Kate had this idiot kid who knows all the answers to the Others, yet don’t feel the need to question the living shit out of him until they find out what’s going on. No, Sawyer would rather talk about love.
Yet another Jack-Flashback! Did we really need to know about Jack’s fling with Miss Me-Love-You-Long-Time tattoo artist? Apparently he can bang the chick for a month and no one cares, but if she gives him a tattoo, her brother and his gang have to beat Jack silly. OK, makes perfect sense to me.
And on a final note, if I see one more slow motion, music video ending to this show I’m going to throw my shoe through the TV.
This show is beyond jumping the shark. Tonight it jumped the whale.

Dude, you nailed it. This show has jumped the shark. It is so disappointing. Why did each scene seem so freakin long and not go anywhere? I mean really, this episode goes down in history as being so lame. Heroes kickass compare to this… Boo to Lost, they suck!
I know what the the secrets were!!!!
1. The people who got kidnapped are still alive and living with the others.
2. Jack’s tattoo which was really stupid!
3. The last one is that Lost is the most frustating and disappointing show in the history of television!!!!
dont forget they have backyards and they know how to use them . can i ask who frackin cares about jacks lame tattoo? I didnt even know that was one of the lost mysterys . who asked the question ” where did jack get his tattoo ?” I know i sure didnt . mark this ok! oh yeah the chick jack was screwing is a porn star , I couldn’t help but laugh when she came in stuck her tounge down his throat and he says “salty” that wasnt the ocean you fool!
Actually the actress is Bai Ling. She was in ‘Red Corner’, ‘Star Wars III’, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow’, and ‘Wild Wild West’. She’s actually pretty talented and not a porn star. Oh yeah, and Lost Sucks.
The tatoo stuff was just pathetic, every aspect of it was boring and ridiculous. I think the writers/directors believe that people love to hate the show (that’s why we’re talking about it) but we’re losing any interest we had. The show went from fascinating and compelling in the first season to just a major rip off and waste of time. I’m finished watching it. I’m so tired of Kate and Sawyer looking all gross and dirty, part of the appeal of Hawaii is that people could also imagine how beautiful the place is. Yeah I want to spend the evening looking at people who appear as if they’ve just been dragged through crap and motor oil.
here is what i think the 3 mysteries were…
1. what happened to the people and children that were abducted by the others (even though not really, you just learn they are still alive)
2. the meaning of jack’s tatoos ( still absolutely the last thing i care about)
3. that weird girl who keeps helping them is Henry’s daughter… but again, who cares?!?
Okay so I asked myself the same question Tyler did, about the “Three biggest Lost mysteries revealed & I was stumped… what were they? What questions were answered in the show??? Then it hit me, WE FOUND OUT WHAT JACK’S TATTOO MEANT!!!!!! Oh my God! It’s a three part tattoo too!! So the producers, tounge in cheek, make good on thier promise, and put thier thinking caps back on to try and come up with new & exciting ways to show thier absolute contempt for the audience. Jack losing it when he finds out his scantily clad Thai friend isn’t a is just downright wierd, was he dissapointed? What is it with his trembly teary eyed BS, he is supposed to be a doctor, Doctors watch 5 year olds die of leukemia & go home like it’s a normal day, “Hi honey! What’s for dinner?” Anyway next week probably will be a Bernard & Rose Flashback episode, those writers need a break after such a revealing episode.
…but jack is made of strong stuff tho – he didn’t once cry when they killed the polar bears….
yep. it’s like I said after last week’s epi: they invent details that they can reveal, none of them primary to the main plot or anything most of us care about.
what the fuck
i’m…im not a fan anymore.
guess what Lost just lost another fan. good riddance? fuck you fox with your fucking tatoos.
where are promised revealings? they said this episode will blow our minds. yeah i guess it blow my mind….
Heh, heh… another one bites the dust. This place is like a microcosom of the Lost fan base. One by one they all go away shaking their head & going: “wft?”.
“wft?”?…heh heh…
what fuck the?
Another episode, another 42 minutes of my life gone. I feel that after 57 episodes it’s time to reconsider how I spend my time. After all I’ve spent almost 40 hours (excluding commercial breaks) watching lost. There are many things I could’ve done with my time, a weekend in Vegas, the world’s longest drinking binge or even visit old friends. So if you had your 40 hours back what would you do with them? Please people reflect and seriously consider what you could have accomplished in the time we’ve all wasted on this plotless show. Also here hoping that they cancel the series or at least fire the writers.
I’m going with the drinking binge. Sounds good to me.
again, we’re hit over the head with the analogies/symbolism. jack’s tattoo? ‘he walks among us but he isn’t one of us’. ah…I see, like JC. wow….subtle. a tortured sould (jack/JC) who tries constantly to save people (literally and figuratively). now’s when all the ‘true fans’ will say the show is really deep, etc.
hey, here’s another thing that I want to pick on, the producers have said recently that the whole story is mapped out (100 episodes). someone else here pointed out that they killed off libby et al for contract issues. they also admit that while they planned to kill off AnaL, they added Libby’s death at the last minute. AND…they’ve admited that Eko’s death was premature. AND, here’s the kicker…
they said originally, the dr. character (jack) was supposed to die in either the first episode or one of the very early episodes. so….how could such a central character, who was supposed to die, be part of a complete story that is mapped out start to finish…if he isn’t dead yet???
What the meant was that they had it all mapped out on 3 napkins just before that particular interview.
Sadly, they lost the napkins and are back to making shit up.
Wow, typo city. “They”.
that the next episode they find these napkins with drawings of polar bears on them ! a new lost mystery. why dont these people ask questions why do they live under tarps ! people who live in the jungle and who have never seen a mirror are smarter these f**ks . for a doctor hes sure is dumb.it seems that this show is about creating mysterys that never get solved . do the writers even know whats going on . why dont they shave or grow beards ? oh yeah because in the 3 years this shows been on only 3 days have passed on the island. why havnt thy searched the island ,all of it .explore you fools .
like sand through the hour glass
so are the days of our lives on the island…….
lame lame lame lame lame. i used to like this show
you know, in fairness, I didn’t think it was a horrible episode. but the expectations are so high, mediocrity isn’t good enough. and…they’re terribly disingenuous by thinking some of these “secrets” they answer are what we actually care about. jack’s tats? didn’t care.
I think it’s an ok story (jacks tats), but doesn’t really add much.
the sawyer/kate thing…ridiculous. how come they can’t row around the island in the dark, but…they can trek through the jungle in the dark??
the ’sheriff’ seems like an ok character, but wow! another character?? when michael and walt return (two of my least favorite characters anyway), will I even remember, let alone care, about them????
no you wont . if they do return I want to see some lord of the flies shit going down, beat him and his dumb kid to death please! sawyer is dumb as they get .I would beat all the info i wanted out of that kid and then some . but know the writers wouldnt like if we knew anything . im willing to bet that the show is canceled before we know anything. the sheriff whats up with her when she asked jack to come with her she bits her lower lip and gives him this strange look , looks like she wanted to screw him . this show sucks now all were doing is prolonging there sweet life in hawaii
Things I learned from last nights episode of Lost:
1) Jack digs asian chicks (who doesn’t).
2) Hannibal Lechter has a sister named Isabelle who lives on the island
(seriously, I kept waiting for her to go: “ha-llo Clarice…”).
3) Juliette makes a mean grilled cheese (just like mom).
4) Sawyer gives REALLY lousy relationship advice (sure, go get killed kid).
5) Don’t get tattoos in Puket (due to “ancient Chinese secret”).
6) The Others second worst punishment (after death) is something Greek
system frat brothers do to each other every day.
What a load of crap. To me this was the worst episode ever, bar none. Not only did they fail to reveal ANYTHING (despite what the preview promised), but we had to deal with another entire episode of crybaby Jack. Good Lord, somebody shoot this show & put it out of its misery!
yes. the things this show chooses to make a point of showing us….silly… (grilled cheese…they actually made a point of having jack refuse grilled cheese b/c Juliet didn’t make it…and such a sappy crappy scene where she brings him the sandwich).
still…I thought this jackstory was ok. yes yes, there is some ridiculousness, the dire consequences of being branded ‘what you are’ apparently involved….being beaten up and banished from Puket…wow…. and yes, jack was still stubborn. I guess he’s a very aggressive stalker-like Jesus figure.
Oh come on. Admit it. You guys were all dying to see a flashback episode devoted to Jack’s tattoo. But only part of it. This means we can look forward to yet another episode with a flashback explaining how he got the rest of it (my money’s on the top part being some sort of antidote to remedy the evil of the Chinese characters that made all the little kids in Thailand want to kick Jack’s ass).
Which reminds me, I don’t want to see that mofo weep one more goddamm time. Bring back the kick-ass leader that made everyone on the island his bitches by taking charge and getting shit done. Please, I do not want to see the inner suffering of Jack’s intense and fractured soul anymore.
I didn’t think the island parts of the episode were as disappointing as I expected, even with the Jack-rushes-in-with-the-stay-of-execution-at-the-last-second-to-save-the-heroine’s-life moment. And I could have done without the weepy, slo-mo, emotionally manipulative ending. Is this a TV show or a boy band video? At least they didn’t use some tortured singer/songwriter accoustic guitar tune by a guy with a fake gruffy voice who sounds like he’s going to kill himself at any second. That would have required revenge.
in the first two series we saw things that made us go “jeeeez”…just a few examples from my point of view was the guy with the dynamite and the polar bear bounding through the long grass and having to unload a clip into it…
what the heck has happened so far that made me think “what a great series, i’m glad i’m still watching this!”?
kate in that dress digging in the heat….thats it!
Yeah, the guy blowing up was cool! See, now I’m really aggrivated remembering how good the show used to be!
Yeah, back in the day when the show still had a little bit of humor as well and wasn’t crushing itself under the weight of its own earnest tangents. Hurley saying “dude, he just….exploded.” Great moment and one of the reasons I miss the old days of “Lost.”
yeah when did sawyer forget how to shoot ! he took out that bear pretty quick but when they were being chased through the jungle he couldnt hit a guy no more then 6 feet from him. wtf
uh…did you use mo’ fo’ as a one word descriptor? interesting ; )
I see two scenarios for LOST:
1. they continue to deny there’s anything wrong, the show doesn’t make 5 seasons (when they say the story will be complete)
2. they try to recapture audience, but in doing so, grasp at more love, sex, and melodrama (turning LOST into Melrose Place meets Survivor)
Awww, what? I wanted to see Sawyer sing “Somewhere out there” in a falsetto voice.
woof woof. all i can say. this is the one that makes me stop watching. jack’s tats? jack’s tats? grilled f-in’ cheese served by dr. one-note? woof woof.
I can’t believe this show… from how awesome it started, to how bad it has sucked every since like episode 1×14. It continuously gets worse, and leaving me hating myself more and more for the fact that i keep watching it. I’ve never been more addicted to and dissappointed with show in my life. Its so obvious the writers have no idea what the hell they are doing with this show. What was the point of the polar bears? What was the point of Walt and his freaky-ness? What the hell was the point of ‘108′”? What was the point of the hatch and turning the key? Cause aparently it did nothing as long you turn the key to some valve. What was the point of Russo and the black rock? All these bullshit things going on in a show and they’re left completely ignored and irrelevant. When they do bring back what the hell all these things were meant for, I’m sure i’ll be even more let down than ever before. This show needs to be stopped immediately and let another more interesting show take its place
Jeez, that’s sad. You need to stop watching for your own sake. I mean, I still watch because it’s moderately entertaining. If I hated it enough to want to stop watching it, I would stop watching it *right there and then* and never look back.
I completely agree with you. I NEED TO STOP WATCHING. but heres the thing, i’ve watched every single episode, taking time out every wednesday night to watch it. every week from season 1, i would watch religiously… hoping and praying it would be as good as it was when it started, but consistenly every week, i’m let down farther and farther. I can’t quit now, or else i’ll really feel like a loser when/if something worth watching happens.
[not meant as a slam]…I think if you had anything better to do on wednesday nights at 10:00, you wouldn’t mind giving up the show.
Jerome here again, LETS START A PETITION TO ABC TO EITHER GET LOST ON TRACK AND GO SOMEWHERE, OR GET THE F*** OFF THE AIR
There is already at least one petition going around on the net right now. If you google it I’m sure you can find it. I personally wouldn’t waste the time. The show’s producers are doing a fine job of ensuring its demise all on their own.
Besides, those petition things never really get anything done, except maybe helping the people who sign them feel a little satisfied. Frankly, I don’t want it to go off the air – there are plenty of people who still enjoy the show, some of them, passionately so (witness the “your all stupid and u just dont get the show because its complacated and intellagent” remarks left here). I just wish it never turned into the absurd farce of dumb plot twists and bad character development that it is these days. I’m still blindly optimistic enough to hope the writers might get their smug heads out of their asses long enough to pull it back together and give us all an ending worth the wait and investment and stop treating us all like we’re a bunch of retards that need an entire 45 minutes of an episode to explain to us that Desmond is psychic. WE. GET. IT.
I agree, hope springs eternal… Don’t hold yr breath though unless blue is your color.
The three mysteries that were actually solved last night:
- Whether or not Jack ever banged a Thai chick
- If Jack likes his sandwiches better grilled or not grilled
- If Sawyer can paddle a boat or not
Still remains to be answered: Why some chick from Thailand is giving tattoos in Chinese.
Actually, Thailand is full of native Chinese. As are most countries in southeast Asia.
Fair enough. That doesn’t make the entire subplot any less shitty, though.
Agreed 100%!!
First time poster. I typed in “Lost Sucks” in Google and this is the first site that came up. It’s great! I’m glad I’m not alone in absolutely hating myself for watching this show. I got into it late. I watched the first 2 seasons on DVD and was glued to the set, on the edge of my seat. This season just gets worse and worse. Last night was a new low. Now next week is ‘the reunion everyone has been waiting for’, and I know I’m going to watch. But at the end will I question why I’ve wasted another hour of my life for absolutely nothing at all? I hate to say, I have little reason to assume I’ll feel any other way. Last night’s revealing of 3 big mysteries was an absolute joke. Never once did I consider Jack’s tattoo a ‘big mystery’, and even if I did, what were the other 2!?
Not to mention that aren’t the “reunions” getting a little old? Sun and Jin re-unite. Tailies and…fuselage people, whatever the eff they’re called, re-unite. Raft people and island people re-unite (cue teary music and slow motion running). Bernard and Rose re-unite. Jack and Ana Lucia re-unite. Michael and Walt re-unite. Claire and Charlie re-unite. Claire and baby re-unite. Why do they think this is something we’d be sitting on the edge of our seats for?
God yr bitter & cynical… will you marry me? Heh, heh…
Did that come off bitter and cynical? I actually thought I was being quite literal.
Kindly point to any instances of exaggeration…that’s the thing about “Lost.” You don’t even have to be sarcastic for the whole thing to sound ludicrious.
“Meanwhile, a caged Sawyer attempts to extrapolate fish biscuits from a makeshift experimental vending machine while Kate is forced to perform chain gang-style manual labor, a la ‘Cool Hand Luke,’ except she’s dressed more for the soapy ‘Lucille’ part than that of the Captain’s bitch who could be forced to spend a night in the box after even the smallest mis-step. What do you mean? What ‘other side of the island’?”
well, that’s another rip-off…
“Eatin’ the fish biscuit boss”
‘Eatin’ the fish biscuit’
maybe kate choking down 50 boiled eggs would liven things up.
Actually, I meant your reaction to the many “touching” reunions. You must have a heart of stone to not be moved, BWAHAHAHA!!! Sorry couldn’t pull that off with a straight face, so to speak.
oohh the good old days of season 1 and 2, aahhhh..
OMG!! how in the world did you enjoy season 2?!? Maybe i hated it so much because i actually watched it week to week, and each week i would build up my hopes until wednesday night, and my dreams would surely be crushed and shit on. By far the worst of season 2 was the episode that where charlie tries to rescue the baby in the ocean, and gets a beat down from Locke… that was by far the worst episode of the series
I hate all the characters now. All of them. I have sympathy for no one. Why do I keep watching this crap. Please, please, let them all die. You know what? I don’t give a damn about the mysteries any longer. Why should I? None of the characters do. Maybe the stupid island is sitting on a volcano and it’ll explode or something. Good riddance.
it’s over. i’m not watching anymore. i’ll just sit back and listen to my friends and blogs complain about how much it sucks. this show is a whore. cheap tricks and complete lack of depth. the depth was an illusion. the plot has not moved. the characters a dumb and lame. the show has lost touch with everything. moving on to bigger and better things.
Somebody explain these mysteries:
1) Why is this show still on the air?
2) Why am I still watching it?
3) Why am I wasting even more time complaining about why I’m still watching this crappy show?
I Tivo this show and fast forward through the commercials. I’m becoming more and more tempted just to fast forward through the show itself, just looking for character deaths. That’s the only thing I want to see at this point. Monster, please, kill them all.
3) Why am I wasting even more time complaining about why I’m still watching this crappy show?
that’s the question I find hardest to answer myself. a TRUE mystery!
as for Tivo and commercials, if last night’s epi was any indication, you’re FF button will be worn out very soon. it seems like 3 minutes of commercial for every 9 minutes of show…!?
I have a suggestion. Somebody with more free time than I should put together an AlternativeLost site. Pick some point before the show started to suck and write it from there. Maybe it could be a Wiki site so anybody could update it. I’d like to see actual screenplays posted though, not just explanations for all the mysteries–screenplays that reveal the mysteries through characters. Don’t be intimidated to post your writing. It can’t possibly be worse than the junk they’re actually broadcasting.
Are you *kidding*?! That would be taken over by losties writing fanfiction. It would be the worst site on the entire internet.
It’s hard for me to imagine any fan fiction that’s worse than the screen play for the last episode.
You know this is actually one of the best shows on television at the moment. I mean such attention to detail, what riveting back story and my god what epic plot. Excuse I’m just of to the doctors to have the stitches from my full frontal lobotomy removed.
On a more serious note I’ve come up with a theory on what’s going on in lost. As kids did any of you have the where’s Waldo books. Basically there books filled with pictures and hidden in the picture somewhere is Waldo and it’s your task to find him. Could lost be the television version of this only instead of Waldo it’s where the plot. A possible follow up to ‘Where’s the plot’ is designed for the team behind the show called ‘Where’s the audience’.
First time poster to this site. Found it by typing variations of “Lost sucks” into Google. I was always a big fan of Lost, it used to be so cool. I couldn’t wait till the next episode, but now I just can’t take it anymore. The show has completely self-destructed. There are so many unbearable things wrong with it now. This 3rd season has driven everything into the ground. Seasons 1 and 2 were masterworks in comparison. In season 3, Henry’s gang is so uninteresting and non-threatening that they should just drop the whole idea completely. Last night’s episode was the final straw. Absolutely terrible. Worst episode I have seen with the main characters as stars of an episode. I’ve never seen a series go from “what-will-happen-next-week” exciting to “W-T-F” boring so fast. I will no longer stand for the way the show switches characters week-by-week so that any hope of a tiny, miniscule storyline advancement for the people you’ve been following is at least 2 weeks away. And the commercials?!! Dear Lord, the commercials! My eyes are burning. Lost has more commercials than an injury-laden football game. Seriously, the show must be a half-hour long because there is never more than 7 or 8 minutes of show without an ad break. At least it’s a quick view when DVRed. And the flashbacks are getting downright obnoxious. Every time I hear that whoosh! sound effect coming, I know things are about to drag and I think OH NO NOT AGAIN! But those things are just the tip of the iceberg. The show needs more action, more storylines people actually care about, and less soap opera crap (the show isn’t on every day so you’d think they might not want to continually piss off their audience). Oh, and they need to blow up the new island because it and the people on it have decimated the show. Lost has completely lost its way, and hopefully, before they find they way off the island due to sharply declining ratings, they can find a way to make the show exciting again. I’m done with it. What a shame.
Man, you can just see this site growing by leaps and bounds. It’s amazing how many people must be googling the words “Lost sucks” on a daily basis. I predict a hundred regular posters by the end of the season!
i typed in polar bears and came to this site….go figure!
it lost its way when the ‘others’ were revealed. prior to that, they were part of the mystery and stories focused on the main characters (who are, or were, far more interesting than the ‘others’).
as for making it exciting…the powers that be refuse to acknowledge that there are any problems, as evidenced by the fact that they thought any of us cared about where jack’s tats came from!!!!!
watching the show is like [chinese] water torture…a single drop on your forehead every minute, eventually you go crazy just wishing they’d pour the whole bucket.
I found myself “almost pleased” with the latest episode.
(Take careful note of the quotation. Should be regarded as “Air-Quotes”)
I am not pleased with the fact that I was promised there would be revelations and there were absolutely none. But that was expected. I feel bad for anyone who actually believed they would get one answer, let alone three, without 100 new questions/mysteries being opened.
I am not pleased to see the only plotline that is still moving is the Jack-Kate-Sawyer “Who will she choose” retard-fest. By the way, if I wanted to watch a love triangle. There are dozens of better shows Mr. Abrams. You didn’t have to destroy this show to make another. I hate you.
What I’m pleased about is the writers finally drove home my Jack metaphor theory.
Remember the scene when Jack wakes up trapped in his cage. Surrounded by people, who turn out to be the people who were kidnapped? Remember when the one lady approaches him and confirms it, and then begins to engage in retarded chit-chat? Remember how Jack goes ballistic on her and she looks at him like he’s a complete tool? Then she says nothing, she walks away with the others without explaining anything. She leaves Jack with nothing but questions and moves on…….
I laughed at that moment. The thought hit me like a brick.
If I was in that cage, and Jack was watching the show, he’d hate it too.
Jack is a metaphor for those who watch Lost.
Other than that tiny bit on irony, the show was horrible.
Boy, that really did drive home that metaphor didn’t it?
Hahaha! “We’re watching you, Jack.”
Keep it up and we won’t be for much longer.
well , to be honest , lost producers didn’t promise exactly 3 answers..they said abc mixed it all up in their promos.
next time lost producers will be more careful to check the ads before giving the shit out, because ,seriously, after such dissappointment there should be more rating drop off.
and what is interesting, even in some lost fanforums people hated this episode.
I also noticed the grumbling on Entertainment Weekly’s message board was a bit louder than usual.
Well, you know they’re in trouble when the slavishly devoted hardcore fanboys start thinking twice. I wonder how long a show with production costs like “Lost” can hold out under steadily dwindling ratings?
(Which reminds me — speaking of being cynical — am I the only one that had a hard time buying that whole “$300,000 worth of footage destroyed by airport security” story? Which just *happened* to occur right before the end of the hiatus, when “Lost” had kind of slipped out of the pop culture lexicon? Don’t you think they have more than an intern looking out for stuff that valuable?)
and can they finally show locke saying “yo let’s fucking go north”
i predict it won;t happen in the next epi because we’re supposed to stare at those idiots in the car. knowing lost, i predict its all what will happen.
11 episode is going to be good though, but really if they promise another super big mystery answer this will be how locke got into wheelchair. oh, enough of this how jack got, how locke got etc bs.
uh…not sure I understand everything you wrote, but I agree the show would be better if it focused on just a few primary points of conflict. one would be going back to locke vs. jack.
not only were these two the faith vs. science, but locke isn’t too eager to get OFF the island, while jack is. locke wants to uncover the mysteries, jack wants to make sure nobody gets too dehydrated (?). anyway, that conflict was IMO the core of the show in season I and was what made it so compelling. the show has totally forsaken that for a bunch of crappy story lines that simply don’t interest me much.
I think we need to start a new slogan (jumping the shark is pretty ubiquitous…and not quite strong enough).
how about…
Jumping the Fonz!
it’s ironic…
How about “humped the shark”?
I like “humped the shark”.
I have been frustrated with LOST for a while now. But last nights episode was the first time I hated LOST. When I typed in “Lost sucks” today into Google and found this site it was so awesome.
Why doesn’t anyone ask any questions!!! Are we the only one’s who want answers? These people are morons! Why wouldn’t Sawyer and Kate grill that stupid brainwashed kid until they had all the dirt on the Others? Why didn’t Jack ask the stewardess where she was taken? Where they were living? Where they slaves? Are they being treated well? Tortured? ANYTHING!!!
Instead we get 45 mins about Jack’s weakness for asian chicks and blonds and tatoo mysteries! Too bad I can’t stop myself from watching this horrendous show. Please bring back the Lost I couldn’t wait to watch!
Jessa, you sound hot, in a geeky kind of way. I agree with everything you said. Except the way you spelled tattoo. I don’t agree with that. Besides that, though, I am on board with your comments.
Lost is horrid. What would I do if there was no interweb and I had no place to talk about how much lost sucks? I would probably just stop watching it. But now I have a place to talk with others about how crappy it is. So I will continue watching, making notes about bad it is, then come on here and bitch about it.
The preview for next week’s episode said something like, “Don’t miss Lost and not know what everyone is talking about the next day.” They should change it to, “Don’t miss Lost and not know what everyone is talking about the next day, on the whylostsucks.com message board.”
i hope jack and ben has sex and give birth to the ugliest retards in the world
thats the next episode, jack has a flashback and its of his gay affair with ben . that brainwashed kid carl ends up being there love child . it fits in to whats been going on too . that mittelos guy who tried to recruit juliet was asking about how she got the male mouse prego .why else would he ask that unless he wanted to get some guy prego.
Actually that one wasn’t half bad. I don’t know why but it felt more like the stuff back in late season 1 or early season 2.
Addendum:
Of course, it may help that I always download my TV, and so I didn’t get commercials or that preview some people are talking about. If they had claimed they were going to reveal “3 of the biggest Lost mysteries”, I’d be pretty pissed.
did you hear that the film crew took the film from an island in hawaii through an xray machine at an airport and had to redo massive scenes?
maybe they deleted the plot!
maybe they deleted another scene involving jack and a polar bear….
The more annoying part of that whole thing is that ANYTHING that happens that is REMOTELY related to Lost is front page headlines and leads off the news that night here in Hawaii.
1. The house Evangeline Lilly is renting burns down
2. Libby and AnaL are drunk driving morons
3. Idiots put film through the x-ray machine at the airport.
I’m one of those who loved the show when it actually WAS smart (and not just claiming to be smart by obsessed fans) and had potential. Now, I can’t even get away from this awful show by turning off the TV.
and you know what irritates me about some people. after desmond episode fans said omg desmond is psychic… they took it as an answer..that he is psychic was ALREADY obvious in first few episodes of S3. now, in this episode they tell us various things like that ethan was a doctor, that cindy is still alive, that kids are there with them, that alcatras isn’t their home and they live on the main island etc… we already knew all of it! yet, people take it as answers, and everyone is happy.
now i heard matthew fox won’t be in the next 4-5 episodes.. so they are off the others story for a while, and what is going to be happening in these eppisodes? its just so predictable, they don’t want to give us any decent answer untile season finale.
…and what about the polar bears? they keep drifting in and out of the storyline so they will be back….
Dude, yr obsessed with the polar bears…
the only part i liked was the hot asian, she can really kiss
I have a confession to make.
I haven’t watched any of the past 3 episodes.
I’ve been coming hear to read Tyler’s recaps (thanks Tyler). The great thing is I don’t feel like I’ve missed a thing. It’s very freeing
It helps if you look at LOST producers like Lenny and LOST is the rabbit, and the fans are George.
And, Lenny keeps squeezing the life out of the rabbit all the while saying how pretty it is.
The image is very therapeutic.
That should be “here” not “hear”
Damn you homophones.
I’m quitting starting this week. My hopes is that i feel the same way as you the next weeks! lol, it’ll be fun to see people continue the complaining, but i’ll welcome them to my anti-lost world
“I have a confession to make.
I haven’t watched any of the past 3 episodes.”
congratulations…I’m jealous.
Next on lost more mysteries shall be revealled:
1) How do the guys manage to hold onto the designer stuble look without the use of an electric razor
2) Those planes which drop all that food, just what colour are they
3) Jack loves grilled cheese sandwiches but what kind of cheese does he like
4) Before those plane started up just what the hell did they do for toilet paper
What won’t be answered:
1) What is that smoke thing anyway?
2) Why is there a giant foot with only four toes
3) What’s with that pirate ship
4) What are the other’s really up to
I can answer question # 4 for you! Two words: bananna leaves.
LOL!! That’s funny!
To all of you who are upset that you’re wasting 45 min. of your life each week with Lost (I hear ya) … something to make you feel better … You’re wasting about 35 min. of Lost and 25 min. on the commercials each week. Yes, it is so dramatic that there’s a commercial every five min. or so.
Anyway, I want the vitamins that Sun takes! In just two months on the Island, her hair went from short, up on the shoulders to about a foot longer now! Also, Claire’s was growing so fast and now it’s shorter and she has bangs! Who’s the stylist? Also, Kate’s hair is so full! Like double thick. I want her shampoo!!
All I have to say about the last episode is: WHAT?????
Why, after such passion in the cage, does Kate and Sawyer seem to hate each other with a passion now?? I don’t get it.
It was all stupid! Unbelievable!! It’s not even fun to laugh at anymore! I just don’t even know what to say. I’ve watched Lost since day one … I just don’t know how much longer I can watch this.
“We’re here to watch.” ??? Then they’re gone.
Who is writing this crap?
So why don’t you stop watching the show fuck-head instead of ripping on it for 3 seaosons?
Ug, go away man! In case you hadn’t noticed most of us are disgruntled former fans of the show who need to vent (then there are those that are forced to “watch” by somebody else- see what I did there? clever, uh?). I find it odd that such a staunch supporter of the show ended up at a web site called “Why Lost Sucks”. Oh, the irony…
…more ironic, one of the show’s allegories….”tolerance”
“fuck-head”?
I haven’t heard a put down like that since the 80’s.
…because some of us are WAITING for the show we’ve invested all this time in (that we used to LIKE) to become rewarding and fun to watch. A
nd how about instead of name calling, you ask yourself why you have to resort to such extreme insults in defense of a show that you seem to think is ‘good’
You all nailed it! Thanks!
No problem. This site has some of the more eloquent & intelligent visitors I’ve found in a long time *breaks arm patting self on back- ouch*. I’d like to see the mean, negative, ingnorant people (ie: typical Lost fans, heh, heh, jk) so commonly found on the net stay far away from here.
completely agree – 99 out of 100 intelligent polar bears prefer this site to other negative lost sites….keep up the great work….
Didn’t even watch the episode. All of you new posters, you will eventually reach this point. I started posting on here last season. Now I honestly forget the show is on. Its way beyond being saved. IT CAN NEVER SAVE FACE. Realize this, and move on.
I have to disagree with that opinion. I think if they answer a couple of the major questions (ie: not where Jack got his tat’s) & start off next season strong it might turn around. If not, I too will stop watching without a doubt. Now, in your case I do wonder why you would even bother visiting this site.
i agree with Nico – if they start teasing the viewers with answers to some of the questions then the ratings will go up…for example…how many polar bears to the sawyer? or does Jack prefer Edam or Cheddar on his toasties….now THERE’S the questions we want answering….
LOL!
Well, that’s pretty funny… I’m guessing an overly sensitive nancy-boy like Jack would perfer a nice melty gouda.
Nico,
I was posting on this site when you were still a die-hard fan. I will continue to visit it because, unlike you, I know the show will never be good again and I like to see tyler’s comments. Please don’t turn this into a Lost board as if the show were actually worth saving. Look at the title of the web site: maybe it is you who shouldn’t be posting some 50 posts per topic. Look at the old posts: all of us used to post on here about how bad the show is/was. It was simple, not too many posts. Now I come here and see 100+posts from people who are actually talking about how the show can be fixed. Stop messing the board up. Go over to tv.com and post on the Lost boards.
-BigJim: Poster since the beginning of season 2.
you tell ‘em Jimbo!
-Johnny P: Poster since last week
)
I personally don’t see how LOST can be saved but, I enjoy seeing others trying to figure it out.
I think if the show has done any good, it is to stimulate ideas on how to fix a bad show that used to be great.
Granted I think it’s a long shot.
The the site says LOST sucks.
BigJim
then it’s you, not Nico who should stop posting, because nico actually has something constructive to say not just “omg lost sucks”
if this show was an absolute crap then everyone would just forget about it. it was good 1 and 2 seasons, there were bad moments, but there were great moments like the ending of season2.
and its our decision, nay, our basic human right to come onto a website like this and slag it off to the high heavens and say “hey, you know what would be good for the show? more polar bears!” and discuss the finer things in life like cheese toasties….
god bless crappy series writers, god bless the net, god bless the polar bears…
MORE POLAR BEARS!
…and more scenes of an exasperated Jack.
This show has become a stinking turd, no? Maybe a bit premature for Daniel Dae Lewis… I mean Daniel Dae Kim to be buying a multi-million dollar Hawaii home, no? I mean, he was in one episode this season maybe. The writers should change Jack’s name to “Charlie” since all he does is cry and whine like his character from ‘Party of 5′: “Oh no, Bailey’s been out drinking again, c’est un pauvre un raté!”
Juliette, perhaps, has too much botox in lips, no? I want to slap her in the face with my velvet glove and scream, “Putain! You wipe your permanent smirk from your absurd smiley face!” I detest her stupid face.
Hopefully the perplexing hobbit, Charlie will die, that’s one good thing. Then maybe the pointless Australian and baby with him, no?
Michael can’t come back, unless they call his son Walt Chamberlain, you don’t want a pubescent black teenager waiting for his growth spurt on a show in a limited time-span, no? Stupid casting mistake.
This show will be revealed to be in an extra dimension, worm-hole, time-warp, or some other nonsensical merde! The easiest way, and now the only plausible way out for the writers.
ha! snap and DOUBLE snap!
walt chamberlain…nice. I think that’s actually the only thing keeping me watching (barely) now. when walt returns (12″ taller, bearded, and with a Barry White voice), how do they explain that? Ah…maybe this whole Des time-travel crap is a lead in to Walt aging 5 years when he finally comes back.
The only real question remaining about lost is will they cancel it this season or next? The writers have either run out of ideas or have become lazy. At least in previous seasons they provided new mysteries but so far this season nothing has been resolved, nothing has been hinted at and nothing has really happened. Personally I recommend switching to a different show i.e. Battlestar galactica, dexter, rome, 24, heroes, dresden files or stargate all of which have more going on in one episode than lost has all season.
Also has anyone noticed that Johnny P has an obsession with those polar bears, just check out his posts.
its not an obsession, in a society of a survivors where the ‘leader’ jack has been kidnapped along with sawyer, lock has done a bunk and hurley..is…still around….isn’t anyone concerned at the fact that these polar bears are/where roaming around? why isn’t there some sort of sentry on hourly rotation day and night? lets face it, these polar bears have outsmarted sawyer – if it was me on the island there would be some sort of hunting party to try and establish if more where around – unless they migrate….now i’m not saying that a polar bear would migrate from the antartic but they do migrate south….ask the inuits….just another example of bad script writing….
leave the polar bears alone!
i bet smokey has eaten all polar bears
…down with smokey….
I see by your comments that the point of this website is way over your heads. Well at least I tried. The website is http://www.whylostsucks.com and some people are actually telling me to stop posting unless I have something “constructive” to say about how to “improve” the show. Please, go back to the losties boards and talk about that crap on there. Make fun of the show here, try and fix it there. But I bet you still don’t get it…
Acually Jim, what I meant was is it’s hard to imagine commenting on the episodes if you haven’t been watching them (even if you just do it as a form of self abuse, like many here). Thanks for the uncalled for personal attack though. In case you hadn’t noticed, you’re the only one who seemed offended (didn’t notice a nasty post from the person who started the site unless I missed something). Do you REALLY think that all these people watch every episode because they hate it so much? It’s “Lost Sucks”, not “I hate Lost” & I assure you there is a difference. For example, I HATE the show “24″, I think it’s crap. I’m sure there is a “24 sucks” website, but I don’t visit it for what to me are pretty obvious reasons. When I really hate something I tend to completely ignore it. People like you are what is wrong with the net my friend. You attack without reason out of sheer boredom & ignorance. As this show continues to hump the shark (see- I used it!) on a weekly basis, more & more former fans are going to show up here. Yes, Lost sucks- but it didn’t always suck or not this many people would be talking about it. I really don’t think the show will ever right itself, I don’t even think it’s really possible. However, I can assure you when I totally give up on it I will stop coming to this site because there will be nothing left so say. Then it will go back to being you & three other bitter, lonely douchebags, which is obviously what you so strongly desire.
Correct, this site is for people who once watched an enjoyable show turn into an absurd tangle of lies, flashback filler, and pointless tangents.
Now, acting like adults with delinquent teens who we have loved as a baby, we watch it stumble and make shit of itself until it finally dies in a gutter with a needle in its arm. We shed a tear that it is finally over, and for what it could have been
That was truly the most awsome post ever, anywhere! “Make shit of itself”… priceless…
agreed with above. this show has to end. if the writers are still reading these chat sites, they should listen to our requests. it will take one more episode like the last one to finally kill everyone’s dvr on the show (10pm for the east coast is a bit ridiculous). i think my 5th grade nephew could have come up with a story that would have been better than the last one. can we kill kate and sawyer? how much of this season has to be devoted to their nonsense? did any of us care about jack’s tatoos? what was the point of having all of the folks that were kidnapped suddenly show up? are any of the survivors the least bit inquisitive? i mean, how can you not ask a kid who has been on the island what the hell is going on? why would you yell at the airline stewardness instead of asking her what the hell is going on with the island? how many new characters will they introduce? this show had a good season + 1 good premiere the second season and it’s been a series of disappointing plot twists since. it has reached a new low by ripping off scences from movies (final destination as above, clockwork orange, star wars). it could have been so much better if they had talented writers and producers devoted to making an intelligent, unique series. someone should call david lynch.
I mean what the fuck!What idiot said to him or herself let me create an interesting story,make it wild and creative and then stop and make the rest of the story just sidebars that drag alone and dont help in the climax or conclusion in anyway or form of the first great ideas and mysteries I created.Especially since im making cloneshoe amounts of money by dragging shit along with just downright bullshit side stories!!!yeaaaaaa MONEY
ALRIGHT THATS IT DUDE!Who the fuck cares that Hurley had a piece of shit dad and the damn hobbit Charle is gonna die.I give two shits and da damn jigle about those two.All Ive been wanting to know for the last two fucking years of my life is who the Others are and what the hell is the damn darpa group.If any writers actually read this(while counting their money)All i want to know is 1.Who are the others2.Where do they live exactly3.Why do they fuck with the miracle survirors of a freaking planecrash instead of just offering help and assistance4.Who the hell is that chick in da woods that lives in dirt and makes nets to capture people5.What the FUCK was that blackcloud that killed Mr Echo
Thats all I need to know and then I cant stop wacthing your cloneshoes storyline show
DB
yeah…what he said….and 6.How many polar bears it took to outsmart sawyer?
you guys heard that the producer/director of LOST is going to do the new star trek movie?
the first fight scene will be between Spock Vs The Polar Bear
the second will be a water fight between Picard Vs Shark #1
the third will be a flash back to fight 1, cut to fight 2, then to fight 1 again and then a kirk flash back to what sort of cheese he likes on a cheese toastie….
…cut to Worff shagging a vietnamese girl and getting strange tattoo’s….
Heard about this too, apparently the film starts with the Enterprise having engine problems and crashing on a mysterious planet inhabited by the even more mysterious others. The film apparently lasts for 7 hours containing 3 hours of back-story, 2 hours of staring and 1 hour of running around a beach. The title for this is Star Trek:WTF.
You know maybe the series creators have been so busy whoring themselves out to do this film to be bothered writing decent scripts for lost.
ha! funny! don’t piss off trek fans too, you’ll be in BIG trouble then.
So I take it “Lost” refers to the script? Or the writing team? Perhaps there’s a team of five to ten year olds scribbling furiously to come up with the next (or utter-lack-of) twist in the tale!
It would also explain the Polar Bears. Kids love ‘em apparently. What it wouldn’t explain is how do they
a) breed Polar Bears that look suspiciously like CGI? and
b) how the polar bears got to such a poorly suited island for their habitat? The poor buggers must be sweating like trick-or-treaters outside Neverland Ranch.
Perhaps they’re genetically enhanced to swim like billy-o but with an horrendous sense of direction? Perhaps their genetic enhancements include rudimentary shipyard construction and nautical skills? Wouldn’t take much enhancement to outsmart pillocks like Sawyer, would it?
I wonder if thousands of people are suddenly contacting the World Wildlife Fund offering to “Sponsor A Sawyer”?
Nerg.
I’m thinking we need a quitting lost support group maybe someone could get on that
we could have a 3 step program and a sponser from LOST survivors. And a slogan we need a slogan. Here’s one: There’s hope on the other side…

Sorry, it just sounds like a crazy idea for me
