Faraday’s day

Big filler/snoozer as usual. In the first minute I think Faraday actually said, “its not important” and “there’s no time for that right now” in the same sentence. That has to be an all time record. If you weren’t keeping track there we 3 shoulder/neck shots. Good thing Faraday’s mom is the one person who can aim a gun on the island, even if it was to shoot her and Widmore’s jungle love child. Don’t worry though, I’m sure he is still alive in some other time period. It kind of kills the point of the dramatic death scene when everyone comes back.

One last thing, enough with the Star Trek already! Shatner must be rolling over in his Priceline suit.

BOOM.
Lost.

Who’s your daddy?

5,000 unresolved plot lines and we get an episode devoted to explaining why Miles has daddy issues? I used to actually not mind his character but not he is almost as whiny as Ben. I felt like I was watching a hybrid Ghost Wisperer and Dr. Phil episode. On the plus side, I didn’t see any gun cocking at all, but I did count at least 5 “that’s not important right nows”.

Also did anyone catch the Star Trek commercial? Wow. Nice to know the same techniques from Lost will now be applied to ruin the Star Trek franchise.

Saving private Ben

I’m baaack. Today I suffered through not 1 but 2 episodes and am now caught up. That a lot of suckitude in one day. So tonight we got another Kate flashback episode complete with grocery store juice box drama. Then Kate goes to see two women who I really can’t even remember who they were. That’s the problem when you have a show that has probably a hundred characters; its just about impossible for the average viewer to remember them all without some giant flowchart or spreadsheet. Maybe I have blocked the trauma of 5 seasons of filler episodes with throwaway characters. Anyways.

Tonight I was impressed with Jack of all people. He actually grew a set of balls right for the first time! It was almost like in the Grinch when his heart grows 3 sizes, except Jack grew a pair of cajones to the delight of us all. Good choice. Screw Ben, that little bastard.
