Smokey returns

This episode must’ve set a new Lost record for longest total and most character stare-offs as well. Woo hoo!

Yeah you know, I actually kind of liked it. To be honest I wasn’t paying attention THAT closely because I was doing some work while watching, but nothing really happened that pissed me off. And I could easily be wrong but I didn’t catch any questions answered with “that’s not important right now” which to me may be the worst thing about this show. I think Tyler is right. If you are able to accept the absurdity of everything leading up to tonight then tonight was all in all a pretty good show. Part of it may be that two of my favorite characters appeared: Jin and Goober (my nickname for smokey). That said, none of the surprises really surprised me at all. I had been thinking for a while that the nosebleeds would end up being the sickness that Danielle had always talked about, so I guess technically I should be surprised, but I see it as close enough.

Recap: Jin centered episode in which red-haired chick dies and Goober rips a french dude’s arm off = good enough for me

My beef with this episode:
1) Jin knows too much English for only having learned it a couple of months now.
2) Sawyer explaining to Jin what has been happening was humorous until I realized this is exactly how the writers try and explain away mysterious events to the audience–like it happens because it happens.
3) Charlotte/Dan situation. So sometime later to Dan (through time travel) he tells Charlotte (when she is a girl) NOT to come back to the island. And this leads her back to the island later to eventually tell him about this transpiring? A problem with causal loop, maybe?
4) Sun/Ben scene. Come on. Who actually thought Sun was going to shoot Ben?
5) Ben having seen Locke despite telling Jack he hadn’t earlier. Anything we are told can be refuted later, so why should we believe anything at all? But the writers needed someone to give Sun her husband’s ring and it couldn’t be Locke since he was already dead. So, apparently Ben was lying all along about his encounter with Locke.
6)The writers are dragging out the return to the island. We know ALL of the O6, at least that is what we’re told, has to get back to the island. So why waste our time with pointless assassination attempts, arrests, gun pointing, Jack/Kate scenes, etc? Just have them all agree to go back and lets be on our way.

The only thing FUNNY about the episode was how that stupid old fool john locke went through EXCRUCIATING amounts of pain. made me fuckin laugh so hard i missed like 5 minutes of the episode. lost is my favorite show tho…better than any other show out there…heros sucks, prison break sucks now…24 is dying but its still pretty good…lost is the only show thats fuckin deep as hell and keeps me wanting to watch

fringe is really good too

The show is slowly deteriorating, but I suppose that’s to be expected when something lasts so many seasons. This has been a fun ride, but we’re clearly losing altitude. The best thing to do is enjoy the ride down and hope that we don’t have a crash landing.

In fairness, I do like how the show is contracting in on itself and bringing back elements from the past: the smoke monster, the French lady, etc. The last thing this show needs is expansion into more plot devices. Everything needs to be limited and explained now, and so far this season we have no new characters or plot devices (except for the comical dude who got shot with a flaming arrow). Even Dan’s mom is that old Scottish lady from the shop in London. I hope the writers keep it this way.

How did Sawyer and everyone else suddenly appear next to Jin after one of the time jumps? Presumably Jin jumps at the same time they do, so they would have had to be right next to him before the jump.

Damn, I’ve not seen the episode yet, but I already know I failed in my prediction concerning the lostpedia Unanswered Questions entry.

My fingers smell funny.

My favorite part of the episode was when Locke went down the “magic well” to the “magic cave” to meet the “magic man” and fix the “magic wheel”.

The wheel, by the way, has GOT to be the absolute suckiest element on the show. I mean, it looks like something out of 70’s sci-fi film, clunking and sputtering around! I laughed out loud when I saw how stupid it looked. This show jumped a school of sharks last night.

Another classic – “magic” doc Christian says he can’t help gimpy-Locke even stand to his feet, so we get to see Locke scream in pain while Christian just stands there with that lame smirk on his face. And, in all-time classic fashion, he says “say hello to my son” to which Locke responds with the 8,384th unanswered question of the show “Who’s your son????”

I can never give up on the show, I have invested too much time in it now, as have many of you. I simply must see it thru to the end. But Tyler is right, its just a comedy show how, the funniest element of which is all the people who still take it seriously, including the retarded writers.

The moment I got to see Juliet half-second smile gesture towards John when he was about to go down the rope, something happened to my brain and now I believe all the actors and the producers are all mentally ill.

Did anyone else believe Ben’s random burst of sincerety while in the car driving with Sun & Jack? Either that was poor acting or a way to tell us Ben is lying.

Gee they found a way to answer everything.

Still haven’t watched yet this season, but I dig how the posts on this site have become almost as lazy and resigned as the writing on the show. No offense to any of you.

Theme for this season is whether Lost gets jack on the island or to jack off the island…

I lost the Tivo battle last night and it shows how far this show has fallen in my eyes. My brood actually won the argument over what to record. We recorded the 2 hour American Idol instead of Lost. Whew, can’t imagine giving up that easy in seasons 1,2 or a few in season 3. Still watched in real time but I wonder what the ratings were last night. Idol ough to put this show out of it’s misery and go head to head….and I should get a life and stop watching such crappy TV shows. So instead of jungle treks, gun cocking and magic holes we recorded teenage gay guys crying about their dreams of being a star. Whew. I need a Large Beer.

Just when you think the ratings have stabilized, Lost nosedives again last night, setting an all-time low for a new episode. I don’t have the number of viewers, but they trailed badly in their timeslot. Looks like they may have dropped below the all-important mark of 10 million.

Unless the competitors are re-runs, Lost can no longer hold its own going head-to-head with other scripted shows.

The exodus continues.

That episode was a meh for me as well. Most others here are right about the fact that if you watch this show with the mind set that it’s a joke, then you won’t be disappointed by it.

Last night wouldn’t have been that bad had they left out the whole Ben scene. I hate Ben and I hate Jack, and having both together is even worse. The part where Ben starts having a hissy in the van was hilarious, especially when he started bitching about how hard he’s trying. Why can’t someone just beat the shit out of that guy?

the writers try to make more suspense by Ben talking about “a woman” then Desmond shows up out of no where and reveals it’s Dan’s mother. Another funny bit was how the camera zoomed in on the harmless old lady’s face and then the suspenseful music played. I’m sorry but that didn’t do anything to get me more interested.

I’m glad charlotte is gone. They tried to make her look all demented and possessed but it looked more hilarious than anything. And all of a sudden she decides to start speaking Korean? Give me a break…

Locke goes to the donkey wheel again and meets mysterious old man… yawn.

BOOYA!
Am I a genius or what?
Check out my post from 2009-02-11 20:43:40 here whylostsucks.com/2009/02/05/3-episodes-in-and-all-filler/

I wouldn’t want to question the intellectual capacity of this site (I view a lot. Out of curiosity mostly) but it seems that people don’t realise the show is already on an exodus. There are less than 30 episodes left to air now. Thanks.

Oh and is it just me or are you guys not trying anymore? Every week seems to be a re-hash of the previous week’s criticisms. It’s as if you expect the show to magically change on a week to week basis and then if it does change complain it’s not as good as the old show.

I’m just trying to get to grips with the point of this site. I originally assumed it was to lampoon the show which was fair game but these days there is a sincere lack of effort here.

As to your criticisms:
Charlotte first spoke Korean in Season 4. It’s not something thrown out there. Jin was aware of this.

The harmless old lady was revealed to be involved in time travel some time ago. The purpose of the suspenseful music was to address this earlier reference.

The ripped off arm was actually referencing something raised a long time ago. It wasn’t just for the sake of gratuitous violence.

It is possible to learn a language in a period of 2 months, especially being surrounded by people speaking that language and having a necessity to learn it. This is forgetting that for most of the time they were present Sun was tutoring Jin in English and his English is still quite broken.

Everything else raised here is fair game though. Disappointed with the read for this week. Try harder next time.

Please notice me

Elouise: (Sternly) I thought I said to bring them all.
Ben: This is all I could assemble on such short notice.
Eloise: Dude – I’m just screwin’ with ya! I mean, this is friggin’ “Lost!” Like we really have any sort of hard and fast rules!!(Dissolves into hysterical laughter.)
Well, we’ve got a bunch of candles, and next week we get a big pendelum or ouija board, or something. The best keeps on gettin’ better!

Eggzacktly.

I would like to humbly congratulate Tyler on the utter shitstained mess that his site has become. Way to go!

What was all that big bullshit that Faraday spoke about it being all too complicated to explain even for a quantum physicist? Yeah right, Darlton. Whatever… you guys are so uber science, I’d never suspect that you’re just plain old FOS. I just can’t wait for the big picture reveal you guys have been hiding from the world (sarcasm).

Now we have an old bag that gives squinty constipated glances to the left, to the right and then back to the left again. “Let’s get started” she says. Holy Mother of Fuck! 5 episodes in and she’s wising up to the snoozefest that’s been going on so far.

What happened to that big speaking LATIN gimmick from the episode before?
Speaking Korean now.
Nope, speaking Klingon too.
Noses bleeding on and on and on and on and on and on…
Guns’a'cocking.
Miles jungle sassing.
Pointless white flashes.
Black smog coming out of ground. Woopee!

These writers are speaking shit.

Tyler, it’s not a comedy. It’s a Darlton’s sloppy seconds being served up to ABC.

Your posts are uber lame today, everyone!

Hi Tyler,

Thanks for running this site. Those who write here every week are the real Lost fans, people who really loved the show when it was good and just can’t let go…We can’t stop watching and hoping it will change, but I think we all know that this season is lost…So I thank you for giving us the chance to mourn, but may be it’s not too late, this season is not the last! I think the reason why Lost sucks is not because “they left the island” but because J.J left the show to make some big budget MOVIZ! I think he has betrayed the show, and left it to the mercy of his untalented writers. The person to blame here is J.J. I think we must bring him back! He can still save the show and give us some really really great Sci Fi Drama. Perhaps we can do something together to make him understand that he can save the show. All of us here come to complain every week because we know how good it can be so may be we can do more!

Dear Tyler do you have any idea what we can do?

The Patriot

okay now that we are running things i want every guy on this site to send me a pic of his man parts so me and my friends can make a jerk circle.

Why did the Korean guy throw that French guy’s arm jerky away? Should have saved it for the pot. Could’ve got a stew going!

Lost sucks because anyone can make a show about nothing. Abrams is, was, and always will be, a hack. The show isn’t absurd; it’s a turgid, nonsensical mess.

Why does Lost suck? Very simply because the producers got paid a shit load of money to stretch out a story that probably ought to have lasted three seasons and then wrapped up. Can you imagine all the crap RL Stevenson could have dumped into Treasure Island if he had been told to write a two thousand page novel? Or how all the trouble and intrigues and absurdity that Swiss family Robinson could stumbled across if their story took four volumes to tell? All the ridiculous storylines aside here, all the non sequitars and stunted logic, unexplained discoveries, vanishing characters (children!) etc, etc, etc, can best be understood by the clarity of economics: JJ and co. got paid a ton of dough to keep the story going, no matter the cost, and what we suffer through each week is the result of that: greed over art. I hope their cars are running well, and the servants are efficient. I cannot wait to see how it all turns out. But I do know this much: that show we watched three years ago bears little resemblance to what is airing now (remember when this all-knowing Ben actually got captured and tortured and needed Jack to operate to save his life?).

Anal beads are used by both sexes and all sexual orientations, and while they can be considered “kinky,” they are not considered a fetish. They are, however, incorporated in many fetishes that involve anal sex, ass worship, spanking, or anything involving the buttocks, anus, or anal area.

The beads may also be used alone, as both men and women can find them very stimulating.

As with all anal sexual activity, the anal beads and the rectum should be well-lubricated with a sexual lubricant intended for such purposes. It is important to do this as the rectum is easily ripped, torn or injured. Anal sex toys should be well washed with warm soapy water and left to dry naturally after use. Alternatively they may be placed inside a condom, which is recommended if they are shared with a partner.

Care must also be taken to count the beads after using them to ensure that all are removed from the anus. There have been instances of the string being broken by intense sphincter movements. If a bead gets stuck within the rectum and can not be pushed out naturally, surgical intervention may be necessary. Condom use might allow easy retrieval in this situation.

Gokkun is a genre of Japanese pornography in which a person consumes copious amounts of semen.

The word “gokkun” is an onomatopoeia, which translates into English as “gulp”, the sound made by swallowing. Whereas bukkake titles involve men ejaculating on a person’s face, gokkun titles predominantly involve men ejaculating into a woman’s mouth.

Themes often found in gokkun titles include a woman drinking or licking semen off plates, glassware or other objects and snowballing. In at least one noted video, a Japanese girl swallowed 100 male ejaculations, some directly, but most from an en-masse male ejaculation session which was collected into a bowl prior to ingestion.

Japanese porn actress Kirari Koizumi swallows a total of 163 ejaculations in the 2004 Japanese gokkun title, Gokkun 163 Shots

Many Japanese adult video companies specialize in the production of gokkun titles, including heterosexual porn by Moodyz, Soft on Demand and Shuttle Japan, as well as homosexual titles like Coat Kuratatsu.

Gokkun titles are produced in the US porn industry. The American Gokkun series features US porn stars swallowing semen collected in laboratory beakers, to visually measure and demonstrate to the audience the large amount of semen being consumed.

It’s all leading up to the big season-ending cross-over with “Life on Mars,” where a bunch of Losties end up in the ’70’s precinct house. In less than a minute they irritata Harvey Keitel’s character to the point that he murders them with a baseball bat, thus neatly wrapping up any storylines that the writers and producer don’t know how to end any other way.

Gag Factor is a series of pornographic films made by JM Productions featuring rough deep throating or irrumatio. Most scenes in the films have an actress who hangs her head over the side of a bed or stool, and a male actor who vigorously and repeatedly thrusts his penis through her open mouth and into her throat. The goal is to make the actress gag and thereby coat her face in mucus, semen, and occasionally vomit in order to degrade her while simultaneously sexually arousing the actor to the point of ejaculation by both the actress’s degradation and submission to the actor’s dominance, and the stimulation that the actor receives from having the actress perform oral sex on him.

The makers of the films refer to the women participants as “victims” and force them to respond to the name “Head”. The series has won various AVN awards for best oral themed series. The makers of the series regularly claimed they have changed the way sex is viewed in America and made more men ask their wives for gag-sex. Their motto is “The best throatfucking ever lensed”. The movies also feature some of their female “victims” wearing black tape over their eyes in the shape of X’s.

Gag Factor 1 was released in 2000.[1]

The health risks of ass-to-mouth include the risks of both oral sex and anal-oral sex. Unprotected oral-genital contact involves the risk of contracting sexually transmitted diseases, such as genital herpes or chlamydia and HIV. HIV can be transmitted due to the fact that rough anal sex, usually results in minuscule tearing of the rectal tissue, and small amounts of blood are left on the penis and then when the performer sucks the penis, if they have even a tiny sore, tear, cut in their mouth, they can get infected with the HIV Virus. The recipient of ass-to-mouth is also at risk of infection by Hepatitis A,[5] as well as intestinal parasites and other diseases carried in the feces. Hepatitis A, according to the CDC[6], is only spread from a person with Hep A to another. In other words, someone can’t get Hep A from performing A2M on something that has been in their own anus.

It is unknown whether thoroughly washing the anal area and applying an enema results in reduced risk of disease, although general cleanliness is advisable for any sexual act. Porn-industry performers often use enemas prior to filming anal sex sequences; however, this is primarily to eliminate the possibility of any fecal matter appearing on film, rather than disease prevention.[7]

Herpes simplex is a viral disease caused by Herpes simplex viruses; both herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) and herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) cause herpes simplex. Infection with the herpes virus is categorized into one of several distinct disorders based on the site of infection. Oral herpes, the visible symptoms of which are colloquially called cold sores, infects the face and mouth. Oral herpes is the most common form of infection. Infection of the genitals, commonly known as herpes, is the second most common form of herpes. Other disorders such as herpetic whitlow, herpes gladiatorum, ocular herpes (keratitis), cerebral herpes infection encephalitis, Mollaret’s meningitis, neonatal herpes, and possibly Bell’s palsy are all caused by herpes simplex viruses.

Herpes viruses cycle between periods of active disease—presenting as blisters containing infectious virus particles—that last 2–21 days, followed by a remission period, during which the sores disappear. Genital herpes, however, is often asymptomatic, though viral shedding may still occur. After initial infection, the viruses move to sensory nerves, where they reside as life-long, latent viruses. Causes of recurrence are uncertain, though some potential triggers have been identified. Over time episodes of active disease reduce in frequency.

Herpes simplex is most easily transmitted by direct contact with a lesion or the body fluid of an infected individual. Transmission may also occur through skin-to-skin contact during periods of asymptomatic shedding. Barrier protection methods are the most reliable, but not failsafe, method of preventing transmission of herpes. Oral herpes is easily diagnosed if the patient presents with visible sores or ulcers. Early stages of orofacial herpes and genital herpes are harder to diagnose; laboratory testing is usually required. Prevalence of HSV infections varies throughout the world. Poor hygiene, overcrowding, lower socioeconomic status, and birth in an undeveloped country have been identified as risk factors associated with increased HSV-1 childhood infection. Additional studies have identified other risk factors for both types of HSV.

There is currently no cure for herpes; no vaccine is currently available to prevent or eliminate herpes. However, treatments are available to reduce viral reproduction and shedding, prevent the virus from entering the skin, and alleviate the severity of symptomatic

Urolagnia (also urophilia, undinism) is a sexual activity in which participants derive sexual pleasure from urine and/or urination. The term has origins in the Greek Language (from ouron, urine, and lagneia, lust).[1][2]

Those who enjoy urolagnia may enjoy urinating on another person or persons, or being urinated upon. Some participants may drink the urine; this practice is known as urophagia, though urophagia refers to the consumption of urine regardless of whether the context is sexual. Urolagnia enthusiasts may participate in urolagnia as part of a domination and submission scene, though not all sexual activity involving urine is so.

These activities are often described with the slang terms golden showers, water sports, or piss play. Urolagnia is sometimes associated with omorashi, though in Western culture, omorashi is typically distinguished from urolagnia, with terms such as bladder desperation or panty wetting.

In New Zealand, publishing anything promoting or supporting urolagnia, whether in print or online, is an offence punishable by up to ten years in prison.

Wanker is a pejorative term of English origin, common in Britain, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and British-influenced territories like South Africa. It initially referred to “one who masturbates” but has since become a general insult. It is synonymous with tosser.

Umm.. The old lady existed since season 3 and Charlottte Korean since Season 4. just wants to point out.

LOSERS!

LISTEN UP, I’VE HAD A CHANGE OF HEART
I was sitting here thinking, “why are we destroying whylostsucks.com?” The fact of the matter is, we are strong enough that we can team up to collectively destroy other sites. I want to apologize for my misguided attempt to destroy my fellow posters. We should all go to a pro-Lost website and just post the shit out of it untill it is posted into oblivion. I came across this site http://www.chaseemery.com this guy is a total tool. he writes his own music, but it is also completely pathetic. I posted on his blog. Join me, post under your name from here and we can destroy this guys site. If anyone else knows of any sites that we can destroy, post it below and we can all go there and post it to death. I am thinking primarily pro-Lost sites…i don’t know any of them though.
p.s whats with the anal beads stuff?

Fading fast. Getting beat out by rerun epsiodes from the competition.

Fox moving American Idol, hopes Lost gets lost in the shuffle

Fox is swapping time-slots for American Idol and Lie to Me, and predictably there will be a trickle-down effect in Canada.

Fox will shake up its Wednesday lineup starting March 11, with the new Tim Roth series Lie to Me moving to 8 p.m., and the American Idol results show moving to 9 p.m. (times refer to availability in most markets).

That impacts two networks in Canada, since CTV has American Idol and Global has Lie to Me.

CTV said yesterday it also will move American Idol to 9 p.m., which means Criminal Minds will move to 8 p.m. And Global said it will move Lie to Me to 8 p.m., which means Bones will move to 9 p.m.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Fox’s strategy is to make life more miserable for Lost, which airs on ABC (and A in Canada). Audiences for the two shows tend to be very different, but Fox definitely noticed last week when it aired a two-hour version of Idol and the ratings for Lost went down.

The twist in Canada is that American Idol and Lost are part of the same broadcast family, since CTV and A are owned by the same company.

Pointless.

You could pretty much watch the last three episodes in random order and it would make little difference to the “plot” as a whole.

Who was that guy in the donkey wheel room with Locke? Wasn’t that someone’s dad from a flashback?

Paul.

One of the answers to the same question the trolls pose (why are you watching this show if you hate it?) is that we used to be fans, but were disillusioned, we thought this show was something new, innovative and ingenious and it is not.

Therefore, as angry former cult members, we feel the duty to warn others.

It reminds me of Jonestown, where a bunch of concerned relatives tried to warn the other members about this madman, whose initials (coincidentally???) were JJ.

unfortunately, unlike jonestown, the responsible people will suffer no consequences, and the cult members – well, they are already (brain) dead.

History always seem to repeat itself

This is by viewers, the only method by which Lost was showing up on the list.

In all seriousness folks, the show will not survive if the ratings keep dropping like this. Even their juggernaut 18-49 segment is starting to abandon ship.

The “promise” to give them 2 more seasons was implicitly based on Lost being able to maintain their ratings. If the show cannot keep their part of the deal…..the network is under no obligation to keep theirs.

lost sucks
