Season 5 Finale
I laughed, I cried, but at least we are one more season closer to the end. (OK I didn’t cry). I could go through my usual checklist of easy targets for this episode, of which the hit every one. You guys know what I’m talking about. I guess my main beef with the finale was that the whole show pretty much built up to Jacob being the God of the island, then we have one episode with him and they kill him off? I mean, he’s that powerful and he can’t dodge a knife? Made the whole endless flashback series with him pretty pointless. Ya, we get it, he met everyone, and he like a fresh red snapper.
I did enjoy the fight scene with Jack and Sawyer, although it kind of reminded me of the chicken fight scene in Family Guy. It went on a little too long.
The Juliet falling down the well was a total ripoff of the opening scene of Cliffhanger. I mean almost line for line. I guess a nuclear bomb can survive a 500 foot fall and not detonate, but an injured woman striking it with a stone sets it right off. My head is reeling, thats enough for now.
BOOM. Lost. Bad Robot.

I loved the logic of a bomb that has plutonium, rigged to go off at contact. well a considerable height and only suffered minor damage. A person falls the same height, also with considerable acceleration due to magnetism and didn’t smash her brains out. Then takes a rock and smacks it a few times using Sawyers ultima line. It kinda reminded me of the ending to Jaws. But I’m not going to complain too much because I personally want Juliet to live and have her happy ending. After all, she has discovered the ultimate power of the island and a solution to the rock, paper, scissors dilemma. Just fucking pick rock every time. It cannot be beat evar, evar. Rock FTW!!!
Yeah, I don’t wanna go into a whole thing about how nuclear bombs are made, but you’ve basically got a cluster of high explosives surrounding a uranium/plutonium core. The high explosives are used to start the chain reaction in the fissionable material, and it’s a pretty complicated deal even today.
But here you have Sayid claiming that Faragay’s notes give him the blueprint for turning a ’50s-era bomb into a highly-transportable suitcase nuke. Total bullshit. Also total bullshit that gut-shot Sayid can just tweak a few things and make the bomb detonate on impact. And when it DOES survive the fall, even though it accelerated even faster than gravity would allow because of all the dumbass “electromagnetism” floating around, it then succumbs to some half-dead chick hitting it with a rock.
God this show sucks.
Just kill yourself, seriously look at what you are complaining at, just end your fucking life
No thank you, but feel free to take your own advice. I might then have some respect for you.
LostNlost. I thought for a while that you are joke! But now I knoe that you are true fanboy!!! You should kill yourself! Ha!
yh i know its crazy luvin a hit tv show, i guess faggots like yourself hate the unpopular stuff
*popular
You’re complaining about the dumbest shit imaginable. Just commit emocide already, will ya?
*fell a considerable height
One can only wonder how S6 will limp to a close, after S5 dog-paddled its way to the finish line.
i will agree, S5 was the weakest of all the seasons but the first 5 or so episodes were great, as were the last 3… the middle was a bunch of bad acting and tan jumpsuits interspersed with some cool scenes that were few and far between. and the finale was great. i can’t believe you guys are bitching about it.
So there is an opening at the top of the foot yet we can’t go in that way….And no one noticed this guy in the foot the whole time. Ugghh like it was said, can go on and on, but for what point, I am totally lost in Lost. Now for a 10 minute commercial break.
Were are back!
Juliet: I love you so much.
Sawyer: Me too!
Juliet: Let’s get on the sub then off the sub to stop them and then help them.
Sawyer: Oh baby, let’s do it! I love you so much blondy, that if we succeed we will never know each other.
Hahahhaa, this cracked me up.
What a waste of time.
Yeah, that was such a pile of crap. This whole Juliet story line was fairly retarded from the beginning but then got worse when the writers added Kate to the mix.
“Do you have MY back?”
“I saw the way you looked at her!”
OMFG STFU
This episode pissed me off more than most, I guess. Jacob’s flashbacks were just a bunch of retconning, as well. These writers should all be kicked in the junk.
yes yes yes 100% yes
it sucked so much
no doubt – worst sub plut of the episode, season and series. entirely played out.
u are also a prik m8
I think there might be a glimmer of hope for the S6 finale. This episode did have a nice amount of mythology in it. I hope they dump the science aspect of the show and go straight for the faith aspect for S6. By faith I mean the “magic” healing cancer and such. Hopefully the time travel if over because I think they dropped the ball there. So for me, what would make for an acceptable ending is drop the dharma crap and go for island mysticism for the last season. Kind of like Season 3 where we learned a good little chunk of the others. Focus on losties, others, smokey and mythology only. no new characters, wrap up what you have. We have 582 Mysteries with 345 to answer. Get To Work.
i came on here before and was totally offended, but now i go on here to see what you got to say…just because. lol. I really don’t know why. haha
But anyways, The whole Juliet falling scene was pretty sad, even if it was ripped off (but would you rather her just fall in just like that?) and the bomb was a good way to explain the fertility problem the island had, which was the reason why Juliet ended up on the island in the first place.
And the reason why they showed Jacob with EVERYBODY was because they had to let you know he’s met EVERYBODY at one point or another, because if they only did Kate, you might say something like “it’s stupid how he just met Kate and not everybody else,” but eh.
It’s stupid either way.
Zane, seriously, are you, like 12? Anyways, we don’t need pre-teens to explain the vast mysteries of this POS show. Go back to you Nintendo DS.
I stand corrected. They did two out of the three things that the previous episode spent all that time setting up.
For LOST, 2 out of 3 ain’t bad. In fact I think it may be a record for this show.
Zane there was no point in him meeting everyone anyway…Why would he meet everyone and then earlier when they first arrived never order the others to get them. The point they tried to make was that he was the catalyst in wanting them to come to the island….Yet we all know in S2 and S1 the others had a list of people that JACOB made for them to get from the losties camps… Wonder if Jacob visited those losties that did make the list too. I mean after all the doc that was killed that was their leader before Ben. He was in the tail section of the losties the whole time with his Jacob made list of people to help snatch.
He wants them all back on the island.
just like he said to jack, sometimes it just needs a little push…
he visited the characters at certain times in their lives in order to give them that little push..
you may or may not like it but that is clearly what was going on.
and in the case of locke he appears to have brought him back to life, so there was obviously a purpose to that.
there were some dumb parts of the show. jack if friggin retarted. juliet turned into a stupid bitch b/c she thought sawyer looked at kate or something.
We never actually see Jacob give the list to anyone of the others in season 1 or 2… it is just implied. For all we know it was Jacob’s enemy providing the lists…. or perhaps Jacob knew they had more important work to do… or only had to be protected at certain times (season 3)… the point is we have no clue…. and that is why whatever people complain about on here is moot…. the writers eventually explain it.
I would say that you are going to be disappointed after the finale because the writers won’t be explaing 1/20th of the “mysteries” they’ve crapped out, but that’s nonsense. You’re going to be delighted no matter what happens in the finale. Sad.
I’m not going to be disappointed because I understand that not everything will be answered. And I believe they have surpassed 5% despite what you “think” (and i use that term loosely). I don’t believe I will be delighted no matter what… yet if they actually did answer EVERYTHING people would complain and if they left things open people would rage… You love the show so much that the happiness brings you pain… your two cents reminds me of this quote:
Jack to Miles “How stupid are you?”
From the Lostpedia forum:
“So now we know why Locke had to die.
He was being set up. Smokey told Richard to tell time traveling Locke he had to die so that he could impersonate him and take his place. Now that I think about it, it’s a really simple answer. Pretty sad for Locke really, it means he failed after all.
But when did the switch happen? I mean, Smokey was off island when he appeared as Christian to Jack in the S4 finale (smoke detector scene). But Fake Locke only showed up on the beach the night 316 crashed. Couldn’t Smokey have impersonated Locke BEFORE he died? If not, why can he only impersonate people after they died?”
That’s it? That is so goddamn lame I can barely comprehend how lame it is.
So the next season will mainly be about Jacob and Smokey and how Smokey became Smokey…and I bet to kick it all off the losties in the past will just end up in the future with the current losties/others.
Now I guess he can impersonate JACOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Are you (they) saying that Locke in the foot temple is really Smokey? This is too lame for words and could’ve been pulled off much easier at any of a thousand points in the story.
But then we wouldn’t have gotten all the delicious Locke filler…
you’re just not seeing the big picture here…
if that “dark” guy talking to jacob on the beach is smokey, and smokey convinced the others to accept locke as their leader, and got locke to make alpert tell him he had to die, and convinced locke he had to leave and bring everyone who left back, and then got ben to kill locke and bring his corpse back to the island so smokey could reanimate locke’s form with everybody believing he was the resurrected leader so he could convince ben to kill jacob.
damn.. that would be genius…
what, you’re pissed there is a supernatural aspect to it? you wanted it to conform to a physics book? get over it…. a few cheesy turns aside, this episode and the stories it told were pretty amazing… some of the best TV I have ever seen.
you can sit around for days and all the poke holes in lost you want. it’s still pretty good.
Wait…
When the hell did Lost even come close to conforming to a physics book? What part of Lost is scientifically sound? I guess I make the mistake of expecting people to be at least somewhat knowledgeable/intelligent, and I guess that is my fault. Really, though. You should not expect to gain any scientific insight, at all, from watching Lost. They can’t even explain the time travel theory correctly.
Lost is NOT science fiction. Lost is kind of a poorly done magical realism.
How didn’t they explain the time travel theory correctly???
They pretty much nailed it. Whatever happened, happened, and time is a loop. Done.
Then Faraday thinks that if you do a BIG enough change, that maybe you can alter time. But we have yet to see if he was right or not yet.
So…where’s the problem?
And also, what’s wrong with magical mysticism? Isn’t that where the show started? Isn’t the smoke monster vs. Jacob very much in line with S1???
the problem is you haven’t read the pages and pages and hundreds and hundreds of posts where these things -and the show’s direction and execution – were more critically evaluated.
as for your last point, the show was described by the producers (!!!) early on as being “expainable by actual modern science”. so… what’s wrong with magic? or time travel?? or smoke monsters??? nobel didn’t just give anyone an award for scientifically explaining any of them.
To me the idea of smokey being the dude on the beach with jacob, and somehow conning locke and everyone else into believing he was the leader so he could convince ben to kill jacob seems like a pretty kick-ass plot line.
The hated Darlton were setting this up from at least the flashback where locke went to live on the pot commune, where the undercover cop told him he was targeted because the psych profile said he would be “easily manipulated” or something like that.
i have always thought that exchange kind of stood out. it may turn out that this is the ultimate purpose for that odd little plot line. Locke the Manipulated… they’ve been working that theme for a long time…
and now you’re all pissed they followed up on it!
typical….
all of you, stick to “Friends” if you can’t keep an idea in your head for longer than a few episodes.
One of the best this season, but that ain’t saying much. Yeah, there were gun cocks and jungle walks with the same music they used in previous finales…blah. We actually got to see Jacob, and it wasn’t really that bad. He was mysterious, knowledgeable, in charge, yet let 5′9 140lb Ben stab him twice before he curled over.
The Juliet scene was terrible, pure Lost fashion. What was bad was the fact she changed her mind about 12 different times throughout the episode. First, she was w/ Sawyer and wanted to leave. Then she wanted to help Kate stop Jack. Sawyer and Jack have the most pure-Hollywood fight in TV history. Sawyer DRILLS Jack twice, only to let Jack land 3 haymakers, which Sawyer quickly recovers from to knock down Jack. Jack then ofcourse returns punches before he is nailed in the balls by Sawyer. WTF??? Any rate, back to Juliet’s storyline. Then she wanted to help Jack blow up the bomb. Then Tits McGee said she would leave Sawyer because he looked at Kate, whom he only knew for ~100 days while she was on the island but actually knew Juliet for over 3 yrs…then the idiots don’t run away from the giant magnet that grabs Juliet’s tits and drags her down do the bottom. She survives, hits the bomb, BOOM, LOST in black letters on a white background.
Tits McGee!
I’m still laughing.
“then the idiots don’t run away from the giant magnet that grabs Juliet’s tits and drags her down do the bottom. ”
That’s beautiful. I haven’t seen the episode yet but now I can’t barely wait!
Sums it up brilliantly
Anybody notice in the opening on the beach that Jacob was wearing white and his male friend was wearing black? This is the kind of shit that everybody drooled over in S1, but now it’s just another stupid Lost cliche.
There is also a great moment towards the end where there is a bunch of gun-cocking. There is a little bit of dialogue where tensions subside, then something happens and EVERYBODY COCKS THEIR ALREADY COCKED GUNS A SECOND TIME! I don’t remember where exactly it is, but I think it involves the fat chick who speaks Russian and her fat Belushi-slob of a companion who are hauling Locke’s corpse around IN A GIGANTIC FUCKING CRATE because, gosh, there’s just no other way they could carry it. Jeesh…
Yep, they cocked their guns when the crate carriers (other other’s as I like to call them) showed up and then again when they went to open the fucking huge crate.
it’s may be lost cliche but it is also them returning to one of the major themes of the show.
What theme would that be? “We like to use props etc. that are both black and white just to titillate the fanboys?” Is that the major theme?
Yes, the “black and white” theme of Lost. It’s so deep.
Anyway, their 1800s styled costumes were really bad. I know they were supposed to look raggedy and plain because they’re living on an island, but really. Their shirts look like they came out of a community college theater closet (i.e. incredibly fake).
Can’t form words… facial muscles frozen tight… from botox overdose…
that’s pretty original. You might want to simmer down or Comedy Central might snatch you up, brand you, and sell you. Seriously though… the pauses helped… your lame joke…
Before I talk about how this episode fits in the concept of suckiness, I have to sleep and watch it once more because I don’t want my momentary gut feeling of having seen something that positively is a show actually different from the mere bullshit the last two seasons have been to distort my rational deliberation.
So far just: I’m surprised!!
Until tomorrow, then.
well I won’t go into the usuals either because I know you all already know them. I am very surprised at how nice the posts have been so far though. i was honestly laughing the entire last 30 minutes. so jacob met everyone before the island WOW. when a show has a nonlinear story progression why would something like that ever impress/interest you? I also think you are giving the show too much credit to say s6 will focus on smokey and jacob. my bet is that the entire season will focus on RELATIONSHIPS which is what we are all interested in anyway….
also i watched the new star trek online the other day and without gving anything away to the ppl who havent seen it and care (not that its not already ridiculously obvious halfway in) im curious if anyone else thought a certain element of the plot made them laugh due to the fact that most of the lost crew developed it. (even with it the movie is pretty good, very entertaining at least)
“I am very surprised at how nice the posts have been so far though”
For me it just didn’t make that big an impression one way or the other, just not as boring as most LOST episodes.
I should have qualified my earlier post by saying that Juliette *appeared* to detonate the bomb and Ben *might* have killed Jacob. If either of those things happened then the story has taken a turn and moved on.
What it’s moving on to will probably be boring, pointless or just plain stupid.
I’ll give this episode, something, it was atleast mildly entertaining for me. Sure, the whole scene with jack and co. getting the bomb detonated was gay, but Jacob’s story was good
Another words the same old shit!
I thought their was supposed to be two cliffhangers. Not suprised but I guess I missed them. Or was it Rosey Palm and Bernerd? Isn’t it funny that it is pyles that saves his daddy, but now we got to see why he has the fake arm…
So these Dharma inituative guys really suck at their job or what…?
Their security team consists of people who cant aim if their lives depends on it… Jack who is a doctor and never even used a gun until he arrived on the island nailed every shot while the security team missed him by a mile.
The security team also does thorough checks on the entire island (at least on the Dharma side) and NOT a single one of them can find that old guy and his wife and their cabin is pretty darn big…
And for a guy who’s specialize in magnetic fields, he sure as hell doesnt think that everywhere around him is metal and hes about to drill into it….
I barely pass physics in high school but i think i should apply to be a researcher for the Dharma Inituative.
i think this season made it pretty clear that the dharma people confined themselves inside certain boundaries, except for a few exceptions, due to a truce with the others.
I think it would have been better if they had shown minor glimpses of Jacob in past episode flashbacks… in ways that we wouldn’t have noticed except we were extremely nerdy and were like “omg who is that guy that’s always there in the background? is it some extra or is he important?” Introducing him just in this ep was really dumb.
So let me get this straight:
The past 5 seasons have been nothing but a set up for a guy with a fatal attraction to whack Jacob?
Really?
No seriously….REALLY? That’s what this is all about? LOST has spent 5 years setting up endless treks through the jungle, Losties vs. Others battles, Dharma vs. Others conflicts, years of button pressing, Hugo’s endless appetite, Jack’s endless whining, Kate’s endless squinting, filler-episode after filler-episode…..because some metro-sexual has a hard-on to snuff Jacob?!?!?
The smoke monster, the spirits wondering the island…they were all aspects of the same guy who simply wanted to kill Jacob? ALL of this has been a lead up to a 2 second scene with Ben shanking Jacob.
Oh my God. I’m just…I can’t….wuh….buh…..b-b-b-b-b…..*drool*….*slobber*
Holy shit, man.
The sad thing is that you are the one clearing your schedule to watch the show. You are the one sitting there CHOOSING to watch the show…. and as much as you complain… you will be anticipating next January just as much as the next person. If you really spend all this time on something that you feel sucks… then your life must suck. I can understand not liking a show… but to come on this site to hate on it? you might actually be convinced that your opinion matters to the outcome of the show… or that you might inspire someone with your poetic statements…. either way…. it’s beyond pathetic. And I appreciate the last time I commented on this site…. I was referenced as having a PHD…. simply for using correct grammar. Its a perfect example of the calibur of “people” i am dealing with. And you call the show a waste of time? Look in the mirror.
The pathetic thing is that you come on here to yell at people who are posting on a site named “Why Lost Sucks”. Uh, that’s the reason the site it exists. Isn’t that right, you fan-boy douche?
Correct grammar? Caliber is spelled with an “e”, you ignorant fuck. If you’re going to rip people then perhaps you should hit a text book yourself. Or get your dick out of your hand when you are typing about LOST. I know the thought of the show makes you pre-cum in anticipation but we can’t help you with that. Maybe you should see a doctor.
Moron.
once again, another personal attack… you manage to tell me what this site is about yet you are not even commenting on the show. do you realize by watching the show and having just another site dedicated to the show… it proves you are invested in it…. and it promotes the show… since you are watching it despite your “hate”. So WHY do you watch it? Why? please, give me a real reason…. I bet 90 percent of you prove just how retarded you actually are with a cum comment. well put… and thanks for the spell check.
spelling isn’t the same thing as grammar, idiot.
being a fan of a show and defending it is much more rational than hating it and posting on endlessly about how much you hate it.
You are so fucking stupid that you can’t even tell when somebody is making fun of you! hahahahahahahahaha
GREATEST SHOW EVER CREATED, LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL @ SAD DELUDED HATERS
Man that scene at the hatch was SOOOOOOOOOO intense, such a godly show
Godly show? Looks like they killed the God part of it!
I don’t even watch Lost anymore. Can somebody please recommend a good show to me that is currently on TV. I’m being dead serious. I haven’t watched anything worth while since the Shield went off the air (which if you haven’t seen it do yourself a favor and go rent it).
Rescue Me
Get the first season of Breaking Bad. The current season is ok, they’re going off the rails a little with relationship dramas.
Oops, missed your comment when I posted mine.
The first 3 or 4 episodes of the second season are among the best of the entire show so far though, in my opinion.
Yep. That whole Tuco storyline was excellent. Not so interested in watching Walt have problems with his wife and Jesse banging the Goth landlord.
Breaking Bad is worth checking out, if you haven’t already.
The Wire
Eastbound and Down
True Blood
Dexter
#1 Ladies’ Detective Agency
OMFG.
I don’t know what to say anymore. This finalé was not as bad as the last one until the end.
Jacob? He lived under the foot? WTF? Who is he? What is he? And he is killed? I just can’t believe.
LOCKE is dead. He was in the box. Again I just don’t know what to say.
BUT the incindent, omg that was so funny I WAS LAUGHING SO HARd, and the last secen: BOTOX HITTING THE BOMB WITH A STONE hahahahahahahhhaha:)
I JUST DON’T KNOW WHAT TO SAY!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM
After Juliet hits the bomb and blows up the island… I was expecting the Looney Tunes theme to play… and Bugs Bunny appears saying “That’s All Folks!”
Destiny revealed in 2010!
Locke’s manboobs revealed in 2009.
Guess things sort of sag after dying so often.
This was was the best episode evah, EVAH.
YOU KNOW IT
It really just boils down to everything we were saying originally: It’s impossible to believe that all these people on this island for years and years didn’t discover every nook and cranny of the island.
Everything else pales in comparison to how faulty this premise is, and considering how 99% of the conflict (the conflict that matters, that is; does anybody actually give a fuck if Jin and Sun are united or that life kicked down Bernard so hard that he had to settle for an all-star annoying bitch, etc etc?) relies on this faulty premise, it’s a pretty big problem.
There are some really great aspects of this show, even still, and I find myself enjoying certain types of scenes still, but they don’t come close to rescuing it from this huge problem.
p.s. Oddly enough, this wasn’t one of the original 10 ‘why lost sucks’ reasons that started this site, mainly because I don’t think it was all that apparent at the time. I think it dwarfs those reasons now though, especially with the discovery that there’s this door in the side of this crazy statue ruin, one that can be opened with a gentle nudge, and NOBODY EVER even accidentally discovered it.
It’s beyond stupid. The first thing the plane crash survivors would have done would be to walk around the perimeter of the entire island. Maybe find a fucking dock loaded with ships if they’re lucky. Instead, they look at what’s in plain sight before deciding to build a commune while the other half starts living in a cave.
They WEREN’T on the Island for years and years. What are you talking about??? They were there for like 3 months, during which time there was a monster that would show up if they went too far in the Jungle or, later, Others who threatened them.
I agree, they should have tracked the perimeter more, but there’s a reason why most of the people stayed put on that beach.
“he’s that powerful and he can’t dodge a knife”
maybe not the God of the island…more likely just God.
and the rip-off to me seemed to come from Bruce Almighty… he can’t dodge a knife, he can’t change free will. Jacob seemed to be emphasizing ‘choice’ with all his flock. remember, destiny has been a continued theme throughout the show.
I’m guessing the other guy in the beginning is the shape-shifting smoke monster. he/she/it took the form of eko’s bro, ben’s daughter… and finally, a reincarnated Locke. the comparisons to numerous religious allegories are pretty obvious.
as I read this, it seems I’m defending the show. hardly. just too ambivalent ot care. the most *laughable* part of this episode for me was the paul giamatti look-a-like screaming “Get them!” like some crazed Austin Powers super-villain. it got funnier when hurley’s trippy van showed up and Paul Giamatti screamed “What’s that?!”
Actually its pretty standard in mythology that the Gods are able to be killed like mortals are. Complaining about this aspect of the show is pretty stupid. Might as well bitch about Greek/Roman and Egyptian mythology etc etc etc where all the Gods are somewhat human in one way or another.
hmm, wasn’t complaining about that. but… your argument is compelling. I shouldn’t complain about contrary, overly formulaic and manufactured, or disingenuous aspects of the show because doing so is ’stupid’.
well put.
I’ll admit, I actually had relatively high hopes for this season finale. Lost is known for its big twists and ties that add more mysteries after a build-up. I thought the show would be able to redeem itself by going back to its roots. I couldn’t of been more wrong.
The budget this show is given is really starting to take its toll, much like what happened to ALIA[S] in its later years. The effects, the scope and the stroytelling are poor compared to the earlier seasons.
The entire episode was predictable. Lost used to be a show where I never knew what would happen next. In this I guessed correctly that Locke’s body was in the box (though not why), that Juliette would die, that she wouldn’t be dead from the original fall, and that Jacob would get shanked.
Then we have a disappointing ending. It’s obvious next season will start with the cast going from the 70’s back to the present. That’s why Jacob died saying “They’re coming”. There would be no show left if they weren’t coming back. What kind of finale cliffhanger is that? Add that to the fact they killed a guy we hadn’t been introduced to until that episode, killing any emotional attachment we would have had. The whole Sawyer/Juliette relationship seemed awkward from the beginning, the 70’s thing was ridiculous.
This show is tired, it’s not what it was and I’m glad there’s just 17 more episodes left until it’s all over. Then I can be done with this show and move on.
Lost has become a really bad sci-fi soap opera. Botox is a stupid hysterical female who decides to screw over Sawyer because Sawyer looked at Kate. Thanks Darlton, when Lost is over you can go write for The Hills.
We also have Locke’s evil twin (a soap opera staple), metaphorical daddy issues when Ben can’t get any love from Jacob, and that whole godawful scene where Sawyer and Botox just… can’t… hold… on… any… longer… Cue the strings, have Sawyer make his sad face, then, what’s this, she’s alive! But then she sets off the bomb.
Boom.
8 MONTH VACATION
I thought I read where Elizabeth Mitchell wanted to move on, which if that is true, she got her wish by getting killed off, as in permanent dead.
Unlike Locke, who was kinda dead in the future, or like Jin, who got fake-killed to show Daniel Kim, that “…anymore DUI arrests, and we’ll really whack you the next time…and we just might mean it too!…”
I actually thought it was pretty damn good! First time I’ve genuinely enjoyed an episode since early, early season 4. That opening scene really drew me in.
I could nitpick it to death (which I’ll do in the coming days and threads) but overall I thought there was more bad than good…an episode of Lost left a good taste in my mouth, something I didn’t think could happen again!
You can “taste” the show?
This is show is absolute nonsense.This whole Jacob thing stinks. He is a super-human(?), but he just lets in two guys into his “home” and then he just waits to get stabbed…And how could he be everwhere? In LA, in Korea etc.? He touched Locke and he came back to life after falling down, but then is just killed by pussy Ben?
Nonsense
GTFO, how is he superhuman?
oh yeah, he is just a typical human. He doesn’t age, he can pop up anywhere at any time, he can bring back people to life, cure cancer..
You are right!
besides whose to say jacob didnt want to die?
It might have been his plan, i mean you haters are pretty much always wrong lol. I mean look at Tylers first ever post conserning the S2 Finale, most of his predictions were wrong. STFD bitch
chut up, you can’t suck my cock tonite, no matter how hard you try!
Lets not forget the first scene of the episode.
I think its pretty clear that Jacobs been through this sort of things may times.
For example The Black Rock crew were sent there by Jacob, just like the 815ers. Jacob has an end goal(what that is we dont know) and he uses groups of people like the 815ers and the Black Rock Crew(probably many more maybe thousands more?) to reach this end, and as Jacob said, its “progress”. Maybe the 815ers finally reach that goal for Jacob. Season 6?
Simon has been torn a new asshole..
Again
“Lets not forget the first scene of the episode.I think its pretty clear that Jacobs been through this sort of things may times.For example The Black Rock crew were sent there by Jacob, just like the 815ers.

Seriously dude, don’t you ever get tired of licking Darlton’s asshole?
Just because i love the greatest show ever created does not mean im licking the creators ass
LOL
And the Locke “clone” thing, what a cheap trick! Typical of JJ. Shit, in Alias he did similar things, his two stupid clowns used his “ideas”.
Ah yes, remember it all too well, the facial doubling technology from Alias.
My favorite part of the episode was when Jack got kicked in his vagina.
Mine was Ben’s monologue as a raped prostitute in the dark alleys of New York:
-WHAT ABOUT MEEEEE!?!?!?!
I actually thought Emerson was really good in that scene
.
OMG the statue has a crocodile head LOLOLOLOL
actually it’s a hippo. Egyptian goddess of fertility; Tawerlet or something.
It is stupid eiter way. We thought it was WAAAAALT or somebody we know..
a statue of an egyptian god is stupid? culture must not be your strong suit.
Yes, I am not as educated as a real lost fanboy. They are so clever that they understand the most complex show evah
Yeah, me too. I am not so smart as the fanboys and writers.Sorry.
did you have to google “culture”? I’m sorry if I hurt some feelings. I shouldn’t be so angry at fellow fans of the show. You all love Lost and dedicate your time to it… you say you hate it… it’s silly but amusing still. Your comments remind me of the grunting sounds from an overweight 3rd grade bully with snot crusted over his nostrils. I vaguely grasp your reasoning or direction but still respect your view. what do you hate most about this show?
Don’t ever ask me that again!!!
Jacob’s big meeting with Jack was to hand him a Clark bar? That’s just riveting television.
And why didn’t they just wrap up Locke body in a blanket, instead of carrying around a 600 lb crate?
I think it was really an Apollo bar. The reason I remember this is because, when I saw it, I figured that Wikipedia would soon get swamped by fanboys looking for connections.
Hey man, don’t belittle the Appollo bar…Jacob obviously has a grand purpose for all of the items he gave our survivors in the past…tune in next year to see how a candy bar, a pen, a guitar and a New Kids on the Block lunchbox can save Jacob!
i FOUND THIS FANBOY SHIT AND THOUGHT i WOULD SHARE. tHE LAST SENTENCE IS HILARIOUS.
“I have a feeling this show is gonna end on a religious note. And by religious I’m thinking holy bible religion. I immediately thought of Esau & Jacob. Esau and Jacob were fraternal twins but God loved Jacob better. There’s also an egyptian connection, with Jacob essentially retiring in Egypt, and this being the setup for the enslavement of Israel and their liberation by Moses. I’m really beginning to think what I said 4 years ago when I started watching this show is really true. To my friends I said that the island was the garden of eden. It’s possible that the smoke monster is the snake that tricked Eve.
Also, I was curious about the statue under which Jacob lived, as it was obviously an egyptian statue with an Crocodile head…so i looked it up. And the Egyptian crocodile goddess was Sobek, whose image matched almost exactly to the statue. Heres what I found, which follows closely to whats been going on in Lost….
From Wikipedia: “Sobek’s ambiguous nature led some Egyptians to believe that he was a repairer of evil that had been done, rather than a force for good in itself, for example, going to Duat Duat (underworld) to restore damage done to the dead as a result of their form of death. He was also said to call on suitable gods and goddesses (possibly the role of the survivors) required for protecting people in situation, effectively having a more distant role, nudging things along, rather than taking an active part”
So with that said…IF, IF that has any correlation to the plot…then it would suffice to say that possibly Jacob was attempting to fix all the wrongs that had been done, and suggests that our main characters are all some varying form of gods and goddesses themselves. Who knows
Also, my final tl;dr theory:
Jacob = God/Jesus/Good
Anti-Jacob(u like that huh?) = Lucifer/Anti-christ/Evil
Ricardos(Richard) = Moses
Also, in the Pilot, Locke explains backgammon to Walt as a battle between LIGHT and DARK. Foreshadow much? The writers really knew what they were doing all along…”
Or it could have been just a TV show written for 1 season then stretched out for 5 more to make money.
There is no way the writers knew everything when the show first started, thats just ridiculous to assume that, but after the show got picked up they made a LOST bible, stating all the major events of the show, and filled in the blanks from there on in
“but after the show got picked up they made a LOST bible, stating all the major events of the show, and filled in the blanks from there on in”
Good one. Thanks for the laugh.
Hey LOSTnLOST.
Know what sucks more than Lost?
Lost fans.
You especially.
The show is clownish and the fans are clowns (no offense to real clowns). That’s right. You and the rest of the fans are funny in a sad kind of way.
You suck.
keep watching that show you hate, while i watch the show i love, you fucking clown lololololol
I see that Lost My Interest (ignored by everyone on this site except for trolls like myself) has arrived with yet another useless post with tons of paragraph breaks, zero interesting content and weak insults.
If LOSTnLOST is punk number one then you are punk number two.
As is true with all Lost fans…you suck.
In a funny kind of way.
If the writers knew what they were doing all along, they wouldn’t have introduced characters and stories that don’t matter to their end goal and they would have introduced character and elements that matter to their end goal sooner. :\
the realities of network tv are they had to introduce a bunch of characters along the way in case something happened to the established characters (ie. characters leaving the show, actors dying, contract disputes. … they put a bunch of story lines out there, and for a variety of reasons, some worked and got followed up on and others didn’t..
I’ll give a million dollars to anyone that can prove that Jacob was even conceived in the plot in the first season.
It was, because there was a smoke monster.
Since this is half correct argument, give me 50% and I’m ok.
I think there was a good chance that they had an idea of a HIGHER being if you will, but no proof no
Sort of reminds me of the end of Babylon 5, the whole thing being a phlosophical argument between the Vorlons and the Shadows….
How is there even a need for a season 6? They set off the bomb, everything is reset, nothing ever happened. Seems like its all wrapped up.
Exactly noone knows where season 6 is going, and the people on here are always like”it was so obvious locke was in the crate” etc etc.
Right now no1 has a clue, but when it comes to next year, y’all be saying i knew that would have happened.
Back in season 3 they decided on an end date, so they clearly knew what they have/had in store for us
When Satan prevented your mother from having an abortion, he sure damn knew what was in store for us.
wow you own son
You suck. Go away.
holy shit tyler just defended a lost lover over a lost hater, this.is.fucking.huge
Tyler,
Can’t say I agree with biting the hand that feeds you.
Hey Tyler,
If you’re serious…then you’re the biggest punk on the site.
LOSTnLOST actually told someone to commit suicide but you’re jumping on my ass?
You sniveling little bitch.
seriously, pussy, if you can’t take the heat, then please kill yourself. as least lostnlost posts shit that’s worth reading. your posts epitomize uselessness.
i think you should use the word punk a few thousand more times, btw. loser.
Am I making you angry? Punk.
as far as i can see it you’re the one who started crying when tyler hurt your feelings, tool
Sigh. Guys, the previous Tyler in this thread is NOT me. I guess people really enjoy pretending to be me. As a general rule I don’t insult people or call them out (fan or anti-fan), so if you see that you can rest assured its not the real me. To prove my identity I will now excersize my Jacob like power and delete the offending imposter!
Boom.
it’s pretty sad how quickly your faithful “readers” turned on FakeYou, isn’t it? i think Lost My Interest may have actually shit his pants a little bit.
also, FakeYou’s post was written way too well to be ActualYou. you actually spelled impostor wrong, dumbshit. could you try spellchecking your posts?
Haha Sad if you actually spell check your posts for whylostsuck then you are… well sad – and pathetic.
that was a really dumb fucking response, riley.

seriously, pussy, if you can’t take the heat, then please kill yourself. as least lostnlost posts shit that’s worth reading.
You got half of it right because what lostnlost posts is pure shit!
I don’t claim to know where season 6 is going. The problem is I don’t care where it’s going. My guess is it will open even more holes in the plot and make the first 5 seasons make even less sense then they do now.
I also didn’t guess that locke was in the box (actually didnt care enough to even guess) but I wasn’t in the least bit shocked or surprised when they dumped him out. The only reaction I had was laughing at the idea of carrying him around in a huge fucking box.
The problem is they had so many pointless and meaningless “shocks” that we simply don’t care any more. Seriously, how many times can you go OMG what does it mean only to find out later it means nothing before you become numb to the “shocks”?
In the end that’s what lost really boils down to. Lots of meaningless “shocks” and “mysteries”.
Haha completely agreed. You can’t even guess anymore because they incorporate the dumbest things in order to throw you off. So instead, we just aren’t moved by the “reveal.”
Nobody in their right mind would guess that Locke’s body is being carried around in 2 ton titanium drum bc it’s completely absurd to do so. A wooden container the size of his body, also known as a coffin, would make sense because of its convenience. Which we would guess right a way. However, Lost once again ignores logic so that they can have one of their now infamous BOOM moments.
It’s just a sign of how horrible this show has become when they go out of their way to use cheap props that make no sense just so they can get a rise out of a few nerds that still enjoy this piece of shit.
And by the way, why was the pilot so surprised/disturbed to see Locke’s body inside the crate? It doesn’t make any sense. After all these morons have been through, you would think it would take the second coming of Christ for one of them to go “huh…well THAT’S something I never expected to see.”
Actually it does make sense, because Lapidus had seen ‘imposter’ Locke up and about. He almost caught Sun and Frank having sex a few episodes ago, remember?
And a lot of people are ragging on the box used to haul Locke around, but I’ll bet that’s a lot lighter than a coffin. It looked like some kind of shipping crate, and that would be relatively light, even though it looks thick and bulky, like the sides of a box truck. Coffins are big and ornamental, and unneccesarily heavy, and it takes 6 people to carry them, usually.
*nd besides, it woldn’t have been as interesting if it were just a coffin!
“It’s just a sign of how horrible this show has become when they go out of their way to use cheap props that make no sense just so they can get a rise out of a few nerds that still enjoy this piece of shit.”
—–
You probably nailed it. By now, the show must know they mostly appeal to the geeks and 13-year old girl crowd. That bunch just eats up all the crap the Lost writers spew out and loves it.
No need to write sensible plotlines and stories, their audience doesn’t want that.
I was reading the background of this late- 40ish Lost discussion group leader, and let me tell you, this guy lives on a different planet. He cannot function in this world. It’s no wonder he loves this Lost doo-doo.
LOSTnLOST: “Exactly no one knows where season 6 is going…”
It will follow a “Scottish minimalist” IKEA theme
It will be a low budget affair as this season has made all too obvious. No high tech quantum, multiverse or sci-fi alien themes involving long post production time and a big SFX budget. Time travel limited to near present where they can block off streets and shoot scenes as is. No alien worlds or Earth in the year 3000.
Expect more camera time on cheaper B-list actor cameos and guest star appearances (like Jacob). Each week will have a walk-on cameo and killing to make room for next week. Makeup will be limited to spray bottles for that sweaty look and small dabs of blood to liven up the atmosphere. Wardrobe is jeans and t-shirts or whatever the actors bring from home.
More of the same format: just location shooting in and around Hawaii. No sound stages or lighting to worry about. More jungle, waves, sandy beach, junk yards as Dharma worksites, knock-up palm huts, rent-a-Yurts and discount VW’s… occasionally burn a hut down for show. They will recycle Dharma-ville yet again. The temple catacombs are too dark and uninvolving for any meaningful long scenes.
The top secret rumour is that JJ shot the new Star Trek on a ridiculously cheap budget. (It shows.) Expect more of that to carry through down to Darlton.
Your prediction sounds reasonable. Coincidently, I thought that IF Lost was going to announce that it was moving back to LA to finish the last season, that word would have come today…
…It didn’t, so you are probably right, they will stay in Hawaii, but film it like a low-budget venture, which quite frankly, is exactly as it should be since this has become nothing more than B-movie quality.
My guess is that they’ll try to bleed the time travel angle dry. As is common in this type of story, you can erase a timeline but beware of the consequences:
The show will start with them landing safely at LAX. They’ll have full or vague knowledge of the island and the previous timeline they’ve erased. The rest of the world won’t be the one bit wiser except for …(cue up drama and tension with violin music)…Smokey & Widmore… He’ll tell them that it’s not the first time they’ve erased a timeline… Smokey is the byproduct or residue of all the previous attempts…
All will look normal but they’ll soon realize that there’s something seriously wrong with the current timeline. Rome never fell, the Nazi’s won the war, Oprah is President of the US, Aaron is the next Dali Lama, etc.
Jack will round them all up and demand that “We have to go back!” Ben will follow up with a “What about me?”
At the very least following Darlton’s rules, they should all wake up naked in the jungle next season.
LOL!
Actually I see a lot of “Tikka to Ride” in what you just wrote.
Red Dwarf – Season 7
Excellent series, that Red Dwarf.
I guess the point we’re all making here is that Lost is not living up to its full potential that it had way back in season 1 & 2 and in the time travel theme it logically shifted into this season.
Definitely on the dumbed down slowboat (more like a snail) when it comes to exploring the A to Z that’s available in the library of timetravel, paradox and consequence. What little it did explore was obtuse and deliberately fuzzy.
Desmonf and his consciousness time travel adventures? Did we learn anything eyeopening there so far? A mishmash of The Mummie and GhostBusters is what I see.
As far as carving out a unique new perspective or reinterpretation of the classic timetravel story, the writers have delivered diddly in 5 of 6 seasons.
I don’t hold hope for anything magical to happen next year. Time has run out a long time ago.
The writers should never have entered this field in the first place. There are major talents, past and present, in the SF world that they were taking on. A hack writer is easily exposed if he/she tries to best a Robert Heinlein, Roger Zelazny or Robert J. Sawyer.
hXXp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashforward_(novel)
Somehow I’m not surprised that
ABC has acquired the rights to a television show based on the above novel.
Let’s hope they don’t bungle it.
“Expect more camera time on cheaper B-list actor cameos”
Well, if that turns out to be true, then the production might as well hire local actors from Hawaii to do those spots.
Could get it done cheaper.
The studios have cheap actors on contract. Think back to the final seasons of the X-Files and Northern Exposure (ABC) where in each case the show was technically dead but yet there was still an endless parade of underemployed cameo appearances and guest stars to stretch out an inevitable cancellation.
The studios guess that the parade of strange and new characters will prolong the audience’s interest and distract away from the obvious that the main story has run its course.
The bomb thing can’t work. It’s the same reason you can’t go back in time and kill your father. (I mean, if time travel were possible)
That was shitty on so many counts that there is no point getting into all the bad parts.
“Game changing” huh? Changed it from crap, to total utter shite!
When Jacob met them, He TOUCHED each and everyone of them, thus probably transferring something (some guys here talked about nano-thingies- maybe that was that).
also, it seems to me that this all stupid show is just a bad sci-fi – mysticism -religious cocktail.
you have kids killing their fathers and vice versa, you have treks (like the Israelites in the desert) you have the people carrying Locke (like the ark of the covenant), you have some stupid hieroglyphs, you have black vs. white
and so on;
They said that everything has a scientific explanation, but then introduced time travel; and now they make it religious: I guess Jacob and the other guy are some sort of gods or very powerful aliens, who must observe some “rules” (who makes them) and they cannot kill each other directly… who the FUCK cares??? sounds like a Babylon 5 ripoff (2 powerful alien cultures fighting over some nonsensical philosophical argument).
someone here a lawyer? what about a class action suit against those writers for wasting everyone’s time, and decieving the public?
“…you have the people carrying Locke (like the ark of the covenant)…”
I picked up on that Raiders of the Lost Ark vibe. I also, swear to God, thought of the finale of the original Star Wars as Jack (Luke) had to get past a bunch of angry hostiles to drop a bomb down a big hole and make everything go boom.
Who cares about all this good vs evil shit, Jacob, or any of the Lost survivors for that matter.
If their causes are so noble then why not apply them to the real world where there are actual populations of people. I mean Jacob’s life work extending hundreds of years is to protect about twenty jagoffs that inhabit the island at any given moment in history? More people die on a given day in a major city anywhere in world than they do on douche island yet we don’t build a series of underground lairs, cabins, and zoos to protect and/or study them. This just seems like an awful lot of trouble to save one plane’s worth of crash victims.
How about you bring some kids to the island and cure their cancer, you know, something worth your time.
By the way, what happened to the children?
As in the case of Jacob, they’re dead too. Anything the writers can’t explain gets killed off.
Or they answer an old mystery with a new mystery.
Well it’s nice to see Richard Hatch has work again. His cameo with Jacob in the beginning was fitting. I just hope he pays his taxes this time.
Rose and Bernard. It was actually nice to them, and I’m glad they’ll be able to put food on their plates again for a few more months. Not that their appearance was necessary, but I’m glad there’s still a couple of sane, non-douchenozzles on the island.
Speaking of necessary appearances, I thought we might actually see Claire this episode. Nope. I guess she’ll just have to continue turning tricks in Waianae for 10 cents a pop. “Please just not in my eyes!” I’ve never even needed money that bad.
And now we have Botoxia. So fickle, she’s obviously on the rag. You thought Jack and Sawyer were all bloodied up from fighting? No way, that’s just hollywood play-fighting. They were covered in blood from Juliette using them as her tampons, contstantly switching them out so she won’t get TSS. Too bad she died anyway.
Heh heh,
….De Ravin hanging around Waianae…..
LOL
That’s a good one, you could build a sitcom around that idea, but she probably wouldn’t live long enough to finish the season, given the way she used to piss people off.
All the protagonists on Lost are idiots. Everything this season has been working towards is shite. The hydrogen bomb thing is pointless, and they would all realise it if they stopped to think about it:
They can’t go back in time and stop themselves going back in time! Obviously if it hadn’t happened then it would of happened because the thing they made happen to make it not happen wouldn’t of happened, because they never back in the first place to make it happen.
The writers of lost have a collective IQ of 90.
I think your estimate is waaaaaaaaaay too generous.
They didn’t bother to think about it because genius Faraday told them that he changed his mind. Apparently the untested new theory of a doofus stupid enough to get himself killed is good enough for Jack to risk everyone’s lives.
Yeah it’s dumb that they never addressed that paradox. Faraday the Genius (we can’t change the past…oh wait, we’re the variable!) Should have had something to say about that.
If you want a GREAT time travel story, check out the film “Primer”. It’s a few years old, and has an interesting take on what would happen if you tried to stop yourself from time-traveling. It also features the most creative and plauseable time travel device I’ve ever seen in a story.
Thanks for the tip. I will definitely check it out.
Lessons learned so far:
1) Be very careful with magnets. Can induce time travel and paradox among other things
2) hot wired plutonium can correct the above
3) botox can mess up decision making process
4) woman make good suicide bombers
5) mixed race couples still getting grief/living in shame
6) Old Mother Hubbard lived in a shoe. Jacob lived in a Monty Python foot.
7) how come Vincent didn’t sniff out Locke in the box and drag away a meaty chunk?
too right!
So, whatever happened to Claire?
Haha I dunno but I’m glad this show wasted a few seasons protecting Aaron from the “others.” Really seems worthwhile now as Aaron has ended up with neither at this point…
And why did the others want him again? Oh right, another mystery never answered…
Yeah you’re right fuck the writers they never explained anything before the series ended…
O shit i forgot THERES 1 MORE FUCKING SEASON
While I suppose it’s entirely possible they might get around to explaining that next season it seems a bit late to me. How many seasons ago was the whole baby snatching thing? Most of the people watching the show long forgot about it by now.
Yea, I never said they weren’t going to explain it. I was just pointing out the fact that developing that story was completely useless seeing as how Aaron ended up with his grandma.
Also, don’t you think they would ever ask Ben why he was trying to steal their babies over the course of three years of knowing him now? I know it would take two seconds out of their busy schedule of sitting around.
Maybe Sawyer ask Juliet one morning over breakfast out of the 1,095 they presumably spent together? What the hell she’s been working on for the Dharma Initiative?
Whatever happened to Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalt!
this episode was boring… i couldn’t watch it all in one sitting. overall, i thought it sucked. the jacob character adding nothing to storyline nor did he resolve any issues we once cared about.
perhaps the worst part of the series did occur in last nights episode. When it was revealed that jack was doing all this because “he had her, and lost her”… and they kept treading back into the quadrangle love bullshit, i honestly felt feces in my rectum turn around, come back up through my esophagus and into my mouth a little
Like that episode from South Park?
Just got back from the library where I was reading Flannery O’Connors book “Everything That Rises Must Converge.” Jacob was reading it right before Locke took his flyer out the window, at least I think that was when he was reading it. I figured the showing of the book was some sort of mis-direction designed to muddle the story even further. As it turns out Jack’s famous line, “Life is like a box of chocolates” is a direct quote from O’Connors book. Flannery or “Flan” as she was know by her friends also wrote extensively about the second coming of Kurt Cobain.
and it was also very signifigant that Jacob weaves tapestry’s and lives in the statues foot.
The only reason I watch anymore is for the moments when the writers talk to each other or to the people who know that the Emperor has no clothes. So last night when Locke said to Richard, “I’m starting to think you make up these rules as you go along.” I felt that I had gotten what I expect from the show these days. BOOM.
Let me guess. That guy in the beginning of the ep is actually Jacob.
OK, maybe not, as an older guy comes in as the Black Rock appears on the horizon.
They speak modern American English. That makes perfect sense.
I was right the first time of course.
Oh fuck no. Don’t tell me that little girl is Kate.
Wow they actually remembered the sedatives!
“Why the hell would he do that?”
“Does it matter?”
An original new way to formulate an ancient concept.
The Oceanic survivors who got kidnapped and converted by the Others will never ever appear or be mentioned again.
LOL are they going to wait till next season to answer what’s in the box? Like people will still care?
Okay we get it, Jacob visited every O6 member who is still alive when they were kids.
Correction: Every Oceanic passenger who’s still alive and not forgotten about (Claire, Rose, Bernard and perhaps others).
The claim that only “the core” of the nuke is required to set of a thermonuclear detonation is complete bullshit.
hi,
this episode was perfect to end a boring season, 85 minutes of nothing, i seriously almost stopped watching 2 times because i was so bored during the finale. I can’t believe lost jumped the shark like that, i used to love that show back then when locke was hunting boars with his fag friend boon.
i am going to send a complain email to the two faggots in charge of lost.
they stole more than 4200 minutes of my life with their retarded show.
i start thinking about sueing them. seriously…
Okay, or he visited them as adults.
Ah, let me guess, he was part in the plot to kill Sayid’s wife.
PREVIOUSLY ON CRAP
Bingo.
People being idiots on streets is a recurring theme in this show too.
i really hoped sawyer, juliet, and kate, killed jack, i hate this guy so much with his stupid face.
I only like Pierre Chang in this show now.
Jack and Sawyer fight? Who wins?
Sawyer has a bigger vagina, but he was later raped by Juliet. And later he cried like a violated teenager girl when Juliet was sucked into the big black hole… !?!?
I want an answer to my question.
Sawyer’s hair is too long for fighting vs. Jack’s kick box vagina. Too tough to call.
Got interrupted watching the episode. I bet the mysterious box Lapetus looks into contains the very same nuke.
RAPED
bu bu teh predictable
Yes because it’s much more logical and obvious to carry a human body in a huge, heavy, metal box, rather than the coffin it was in in the first place.
Not only did DHARMA not notice that they built one of their houses adjacent to a puddle of mud that controls a monster, they didn’t even notice that they built another structure adjacent to an ancient temple.
All the fanboys are tapping away at their basement walls hoping to hear a telltale hollow sound.
Don’t linger too long on the toilet, Richard might be peeping away from below.
well thought out and inspiring… your wit exceeds your intellect!
I take it you failed in your basement quest, fanboy?
Run back to the fuselage and blow your own kind.
tYLER: Lost My Interest, it’s people like you who seriously make me want to shut this site down.
Shut it down then sweety and don’t ever try to talk shit on our site again. All you’ll do is have me blocked. Don’t say something you don’t mean and won’t do YOU FUCKING BUTTHEAD.
YOU GO GIRL!
Bernard and Rose got it right! I’m rooting for them now.
Is the ash the smoke monster’s corpse?
Okay, Jacob visited everybody who is a main character now.
Yeah, and remember all the other Oceanic background characters that disappeared after the flaming arrows…where did they go??? They just disappear??? They couldn’t have all been killed, there was like 20 or so of them left.
Don’t ever ask me that again!
I’ll never ask you that again, but indirectly pester you about it until you give up and support me in detonating a hydrogen bomb
.
Deal!
Does anyone know whether his Korean really was excellent?
considering it was jin who said it, probably not, seeing as how jin’s korean is pretty awful too
Not a Korean-speaker myself, but I watch a lot of Korean dramas. And I could tell that his Korean SUCKED.
I gotta say the most annoying thing about this episode is the fucking music.
I quite liked the new Jacob theme in the opening.
Jack gets out of the van, they all stare at each other and he doesn’t bother to mention that their mutual friend is bleeding to death?
That was really subhuman… the fact that no one care about Sayid being shot took their idiotic levels to a whole new peak.
Agreed. Then the writers had a bleeding-to-death Sayid rejigger the atomic bomb so that it would detonate on impact. I guess that must be pretty easy to do since he could do it with nothing but two bloody hands while propped up against a VW bumper in the middle of the jungle.
“Whatever happened, happened.”
“What’s done is done.”
“What’s meant to be is meant to be.”
Ridiculous catchprhases.
“We just know!”
Jack, Juliet, Kate Sawyer are such assholes. They decide over the fates of hundreds of people on personal whims.
Kate wanted to reunite Aaron with Claire, so logically, she didn’t bring him along when she went to the island to meet Claire.
claire said to kate in S4 finale “dont bring him back kate”
Just one of the many examples where lost haters dont have a scooby LOL
Exactly. This begs the question why did she want to reunite them?
Because the writers have forgotten the very line you quoted.
why did kate want to reunite mum and baby?
really?
Why did you mention the quote that defeats this very point?
And how did she intend to reunite them without bringing the baby along?
just because claire told kate to not bring him back doesn’t mean she doesn’t want them reunited. jin didn’t want sun to come back because the island isnt exactly the safest place…. especially for a baby (this place is death). Ass face.
You and LOSTnLOST sound like a broken record. If she wanted to reunite them, why did she not bring Aron along?
Quit putting them scoobies up your ass and then eating them dude thats just plain sick!!!!!!!
ROFL ROFL ROFL
“I’m beginning to think that you just make these rules up as you go along, Richard.” FUCKING LOL!
Haha, Locke gives Ben a knife, then turns his back on him.
I gotta admit I do feel slightly tense, hoping that the bomb will be dropped.
FAIL
Chang is going to lose his hand any second now.
Wohoo, she died!
LOL they recycled the coffin reveal from the last season finale.
and you didnt know what was in it both times
Loophole? So the fake Locke is that other guy from the beginning. I really should have guessed since he said he also intended to kill Jacob.
You’ve got to be fucking kidding me! She ain’t dead after falling like 100 m.
HAHAHA THIS PART WAS SO DUMB…
WORST SEASON FINALE END EVER.
Please, get with the program. We no longer have mere season finales. They are now season finale EVENTS.
Just what the fuck does that mean anyway?
At this point the writers just truly need to use the shittiest cop-out a writer can, and in the series finale have Jack wake up in the airport terminal just before the fateful flight that will originally take him to the island, and realize it’s all just been a terrible dream.
Then glancing around the terminal he’ll see that all the other original cast members are there, waiting to board the flight as well.
He then goes about convincing them all not to board the doomed flight, in the hopes that it will prevent them all from being trapped in a crappy TV show for the next 5 years.
more predictions from lost haters that will be once again be WRONG
I could see that happening for sure. It didn’t happen but they have all the memories as if it did, a la Butterfly Effect.
Jack finds Kate and gives her a 2-minute long awkward stare.
Boone wakes up balls deep in his sister.
Michael finds his ex and punches her in the stomache in order to eliminate Waaaaaaallllt – remember he’s poor so a regular abortion would be out of the question.
Desmond winds back up in the hatch where he realizes that no piece of ass is worth sailing around the world for so he instead settles for the convenience of an ABC assistant…
Rose and Bernard awake with no new memories because they chose to hide in the woods for three years by themselves. However, Rose holds the the distinction of being the first african american of all times to go camping making Bernard fall in love all over again.
This episode will be an EVENT!
“I did enjoy the fight scene with Jack and Sawyer, although it kind of reminded me of the chicken fight scene in Family Guy.”
Haha! Same here.
The show last night was amazing.
no it was not amazing, nothing unpredictable happened, it was plain nothing, very boring, i got really mad at the show and almost stopped watching 2 times and i used to love the show.
Season 5 has been a complete embarrasment for everyone involved in the show. What a cheat shit!
How can people think this was a classic episode of LOST? There hasn´t been one of those since season 3. But delusional people will always be delusional people…
I agree that this was the best episode since S3, but don’t agree that those who didn’t like it are “delusional.” We all have a different tolerence for absurdity!
OK, but did you really like this episode? Didn’t you think it was a complete slap in the face to the build-up of five years? Locke/The Losties/Jacob?
Why did the writers have to go back to 1977? The Dharma Initiative episodes were incredibly boring!!!
I agree with the people who say that the producers kill off characters when they just don’t know what to do with them anymore (Libby, Mr. Eko, Rousseau, and now Juliet).
They’ve even made Candle boring! I thought he was pretty cool and mysterious in S1 and S2, but now he’s just another Dharma dude who has slightly more common sense than the rest of them.
Yeah they definately ruined the mystery of the Dharma initiative. In season 2, I imagined a commune of briliant scientists doing bizarre experiments, and a series af hatches which must be manned to keep the important experiments running.
Instead, Dharma turned out to be a bunch of janitors, mechanics and construction workers, and the two or three ’scientists’ are whiney bitches who seem to be annoyed to be there (I’m talking about you, Chang). -
I’m not saying I liked the season, but I thought the episode was the first good one in a long time-I guess I’m a sucker for the Jacob revelation!
PREVIOUSLY ON CRAP
HELLO MY NAME IS JACOB AND I LIKE TO CHILL AT RANDOM PLACES LIKE HOSPITALS, JAILS, BENCHES TO READ A BOOK, GROCERY STORES BUT I AM VERY IMPORTANT BUT I DIED AFTER ONE EPISODE THOUGH.

The most ridiculous assassination of a god!
———————————————————–
First thing the dark god /smokey aka the bogayman has to do:
1) Find a willing murder for jacob.
He decided to do this in a very retarded way.
First thing: Making the murder hate his victim. For example: giving the favored assassin a huge proportion of envy. Let’s try this one: While the isle is healing everyone, the assassin gets cancer.
The bogayman really thought hard how he can accomplish that. Yeah! One idea! What if a leader of a silly cult got terrible wounded in his childhood, so that smokey can heal him in his cult-church, but leaving him with cancer till he is a the f*cking leader of the tribe.
To get the assassin in childhood nearly killed, you have to send some really pissed of people back in time, like Sayid. Very logical plan, till now.
Second thing: Sending someone on the isle who owns the assassin in everyway like John Locke. Ah yes and sending someone who can cure the assassin from cancer so that he might stab Jacob in the future! Like whinny Jack.
Third: Then building up a myth around the one who is superior, so that he might become a leader, getting him killed, impersonate him. Threatening the assassin that he has to do eveything what the bogayman says.
Yeah and finally getting Jacob killed.
Why in gods name he hasn’t payed some f*cking russians to do this job???
I am a cat on the wall for this particular episode, it had its moments. But I just don’t get the show anymore -
- Stress again and again that a guy is special (for 5 seasons) and then suddenly show he isn’t in the season 5 finale?
- Hold onto the famous Jacob and not show him until the finale only to kill him? Why did he visit them? Whats this betting between him and the other guy? Why introduce more questions when you already have 100s of them to answer in 17 episodes?
- When Ben screamed “You changed the rules” to Widmore in an earlier episode, I really thought the whole show is about some kind of a bet between them. Now we have 2 new guys betting. I don’t get it.
- Juliet is an insult to women, we are supposedly fickle-minded and she gives the word a whole new meaning!
- Why don’t they let go of the soap opera already! Jack wants to explode the bomb because he likes Kate. Juliet supports him because she loves Sawyer. Aaaargh!! Gimme a break, I beg of you!
- The big crate carrying Locke’s dead body was too ridiculous, I really thought they had multiple bodies in there.
- Electromagnetism, my foot. I guess it proves once and for all that Darlton didn’t take any physics classes.
What irritates me the most is the lies in and outside the show that they have been telling (Eg: “Locke’s special” was a major letdown, I didn’t like him but thought he was a good character earlier in the show). Wonder what else thy have lied about? Guess I have to prepare myself for “This is a dream” kind of scenario..
Damn right.
A formerly promising series of great potential has become a corny, cliche’d hodgepodge of lackluster storytelling, in my opinion.
I’m kinda surprised that the people on this site keep bringing up how Jacob got killed or Jacob is dead. I don’t believe for a minute that he’s dead. Lost’s dumbass writers do this all the time, then they just hit some magical reset button and the character pops back up in a week or two.
The same is true for the bomb blast. Somebody mentioned upthread that we don’t really know if a bomb went off or not. All we saw was a bright flash and a fade to white with black LOST letters.
Think about it: If Jacob ISN’T dead and if there WASN’T an explosion, Darlton can again start hyping their “this will be a game-changing episode” nonsense for the final season opener.
Which is yet another reason WHY LOST SUCKS!
I stand corrected. I’m sure the Jacob guy will come back as a ghost or sometime in the future come back as his alive self and say “I lied”. How do you even believe a story when they can go back and say whatever we have been saying is wrong?
We used to have soaps in my native country where people would die, later turn up as their twins or with amnesia and so on (I got sick and tired and stopped watching). “Heroes” is totally on that direction now, I don’t care if anyone dies there, because I know that somehow they’ll make it back. I watch it because I have nothing else to watch. “24″, I know that Jack Bauer will not die, so I watch it like that. I guess I have to take Lost also like that these days – you never know who dies, who comes back as a twin (or a clone) or who’ll have amnesia. The soaps were neverending, atleast Lost has an end in sight.
Patience dear heart, only one more season to go..
I also find it unlikely that Jacob is truly dead and the bomb really went off.
Or maybe the bomb did go off, killing only Juliet (or magically not killing her) but since it was so far underground it had little-to no effect on the others in the region and the Oceanic flight still crashed, Marvin Candle survives, but loses his hand etc.
How hairy do you think Rose’s bush is after going unshaved in the woods for three years?
It probably looks like a miniature afro…that is fuckin’ hilarious….
That’s sick!
I wonder how bad hurley smells after all those jungle treks.
I wonder how Hurley wipes his ass being as fat as he is. Maybe he just backs up to a tree, spreads his cheeks, and rubs it up and down.
yeah, i agree that fat people are funny. FUCKING RIGHTEOUS, D00D!
Bernard’s beard’s could be an indication.
Or Tom Hank’s beard in Castaway, minus a year.
Bernard’s beard, I should say.
No, it wasn’t realistic.
Yes, it was entertaining.
That’s all I care about. I liked it.
Saw this on the fuselage and couldn’t agree more. The writers just shit all over everything they built up in past seasons.
“Oh look, Jacob wasn’t really in the cabin, he was in the foot statue all along, oh and Ben was pretending – Well thanks for ruining “The Man Behind The Curtain”.
Oh look, Jack’s legendary count to 5 moment from the awesome pilot, and ohhhh look, it turns out Christian told him to do all of that – Well thanks for ruining that moment from the Pilot.
Oh look, Locke isn’t really Locke at all, and he hasn’t really been resurrected – Well thanks for ruining “316″ (Probably the only well written episode this season). So what was all that talk about in the church between Jack and Ben, the resurrection, that talk about the story form the bible about touching the wounds, and believing. All that great dialog, it was just misdirection? Thanks for ruining everything.
Oh look, Locke is a complete mug and he’s been manipulated all this time and he’s not really special – Well thanks for ruining every single previous Locke episode, including the immaculate season 1. I don’t think “Walkabout” or “Deus Ex Machina” will ever be the same.
Oh look, it’s all really about two demi-gods playing a proverbial game of backgammon – Well thanks for making every character and moment feel absolutely meaningless.
You know it’s one thing having a terrible finale of LOST, but then it’s another to have one that completely ruins treasured moments and prior seasons.”
see… this is a well thought out rant. I don’t agree with it completely. I do see where you are coming with for ben… I feel similar with Richard…. the fact that he isn’t as mystical (and often looked confused in season 5). I knew Richard wouldn’t be THE guy but I always hoped his purpose would blow me away. it still might happen but his lure is fading. I know by going in a certain direction the show will lose fans… but that’s ok…. knowing how good the show is deep down inside… they will go on hate sites…. flustered by the show not going in the direction that they envisioned.
DUDE WHY YOU HERE?
originally… i wanted to see what people had to bitch about… but i quickly realized trying to find an intellectual sentence through all the Juliet tit jokes is a task in itself. Plus seeing how much you guys flip out on Lost “fanboys” (wow, when i first heard this “dis” I didn’t actually feel offended at all. It was about as harsh as a joke from a priest) for liking the show. It amazes me the time you spend on something you hate. I’m on here to find decent discussions on how one can disreguard the best thing on television…. then I realized none of you disreguard it… you all love it secretly (like when you watched Melrose Place with your older sister). It might actually hit a little too close to home with some of you… daddy issues and all… it’s ok to hate Kate though… that’s the one gripe I understand fully.
Thanks for the armchair psychoanalysis fanboy. You’re obviously the smartest man on the internet and must be a big hit down at the junior college.
I’m overwhelmed with your thoughts on Lost. Please, I’m trying to take in all of your insights. Seriously though… you don’t have to tell me how smart I am… I love Lost… enough said.
The “revelation” that it was Christian who told Jack to do all that was not only a shitty, it was also INCONSISTENT with Jack’s description.
“The nerves just spilled out of her like angel hair pasta.” In the flashback, we didn’t see any such thing.
“The terror was just so… crazy. So real. And I knew I had to do it. So I just made a choice. I’d let the fear in, let it take over, let it do its thing. But only for 5 seconds–that’s all I was gonna give it. So I started to count.” That doesn’t mesh with what we saw in the flashback. DAMN THE WRITERS!
Feel free to add points.
-The whole idea behind Jacob –
- who cares if he touched those other losties? They just forced that in to make fans give a shit about Jacob and to say “ohhh that’s why that happened”. Too bad it didn’t work.
- Jacob living in the foot
- Jacob this extraordinary being gets killed off so easily.
- locke in the box
- locke was not locke all along, thus making every locke-centric episode in the past meaningless.
- the pointless soap opera-ish drama between sawyer/jack/botox/kate
- jack’s reason for detonating the bomb *pouty jack face*
- refitting the bomb so easily
- bomb suriving the fall, yet detonates with a rock
- Juliet surviving the fall/plus the whole pit itself
- stupid answer to what rose and bernard were up to all this time.
- all those past stories with the hatches, widmore, desmond, faragay, Waaaaaalt, Michael, Ben’s gay buddy, Rousseau now don’t mean anything.
- stupid shoot outs + the losties have some kind of auto aim bot
- van scenes and jungle treks
- nothing explained about the chilren
- The fact that anyone worried about having so many metalic tools and structures near a powerful electromagnetic source.
- Really bad acting from the Sawyer actor… way tooo soapy.
- Ben’s gay monologue… the WORST!!!
WHAT I LIKED ABOUT THE EPISODE: Watching Vincent! I really like that dog (most talented cast member)
I actually liked Ben’s monologue-it’s the first time I’ve thought he was well written since the first Jacob episode. I like the guy that seemed to be pulling all the strings is actually the biggest pawn in the game.
Too bad all Jacob had to say was “that’s not really John Locke, Ben.”
So I will back off on the Jacob comments since I was expecting people to complain that Jacob didn’t come out of the television to flash them to the island personally…. since with all they hype for Jacob….. you all bought into it by being let down.
We don’t know Jacob is actually dead… perhaps he wanted to get stabbed. perhaps he needed to die.
what is so stupid about Rose and Bernard….. living! ‘that’s stupid…. they just LIVE on the island?’ what did you expect?
And I think the children issue is solved… Ben wasted the Others’ time with fertility problems (and kidnapping children to maintain the cult) Jacob had lists… perhaps he needed them to be safe. But luckily for all you die hards who hate but still watch… we have a whole season to catch up with Zach and Emma…. and HOT CINDY
See, I’m starting to think that Richard is on the other guy’s team.
dude you are a fucking dweeb you need to take your ass back to them fanboy sites where you belong. And take your little butt buddy lostnlost with you. You freaks make a great couple!
I don’t mind the mild insults. Dweed? I haven’t heard that since…. well maybe only in Charles in Charge or Saved by the Bell… something far cornier than myself. fanboy… again… its so uninspiring its pathetic… but I admire you all sticking to one name for fans… shows a sense of comradery. once again… you have nothing to contribute as far as the show goes… simply trying to belittle others. I for one feel the show went in a brilliant direction and I’m kinda glad people started to hate it after seasons 1 and 2… when did all you start hating the show? do you people Tivo it? This show you secretly love… you Lost Lovers, you!
I love it when a guy who has “LostHaters” in his handle criticizes others for using the word “fanboy.”
Are you this fucking obtuse in your everyday life, or do you save it all for your internet trolling?
No comment on Lost? surprising! And I simply don’t see how ‘fanboy’ is supposed to belittle me in any way. my handle is quite clear in its message. Yet you are calling me a fanaticboy… which is just odd. I see where you were going with that though. Next message try to take your time when typing about how much you hate your wednesday night dessert…
I don’t get you dude, you are so dense that it is ok for you to insult us but you cry like a little baby fanboy that you are when we insult you. As for lost going in a brilliant direction I ask. What fucking show you been watching??? You pathetic retard its your kind that give the fanbois there name. your such a fucking joke you fit in the same catagory as lost. Thats rediculous if you can’t figure it out for yourself. My bet is your just a spoiled little rich fanboy wiff his widdow feewings hurt because someone made fun of his favowite show. And check your spelling dumbass. Go back to your corner sucking lostnlosts dick.
I don’t think Jacob is dead.
I don’t know that “Locke is not Locke.” Just because you have a dead Locke in the box and a live Locke running around doesn’t mean that they aren’t both the same Locke. This is Lost, and the writers stopped caring about logic a long time ago.
You are so right and so when they met up with the shot Locke, doing the time traveling thing then their was three of them on the island. If that ain’t a fucking joke than neither is lostnlost!
Your grammar is a joke. The fact you can’t admit you love the show you can’t help but watch is also quite amusing. I bet half of you have Charlie screen savers. Gosh, you people slay me!
Its funny how the trolls are coming here after this episode to defend the show, while on most other pro-lost sites there are plenty of people who hated the finale and the season in general. Why don’t you trolls go spend your energy on them?
no actually most people loved it
and one wonders why this loser is visiting pro-lost sites in the first place.
As I see even a A LOT OF fanboys are disappointed with the finale.
everyone i’ve talked to about the finale loved it.
@Simonadebisi
Do you believe it yourself?
I agree with simon. A lot of people have been disappointed with the show ever since time travel was introduced. This finale made a lot of people who used to love the show to have doubts. Sure, a lot of people will praise any idiotic plot device the writers come up with, but there are enough fans who aren’t mindless dolts to make a signficant number.
WHERE ARE THE CHILDREN?!?!?
For the 69696969th time,
Never ask me that again!!!!
Wow.
Finally got to see the big “finale” tonight.
-Creepy guy buys lunchbox for little girl in small town where the store owner seems to know everyone…except for the guy who buys the lunchbox. Doesn’t call the cops. Right.
-Strange…I’m beginning to feel like Radzinsky may be the only likable character on the island. He’s the only one who doesn’t seem willing to put up with trivial bullshit.
-Wow. Creepy drifter offers pen to small boy in small town and nobody notices.
-Sawyer shoots the radio with a .45 calibur pistol inside the control room of the submarine yet nobody seems to have 2nd degree hearing pain. How is that possible?
-The car killing was pretty cool.
-Why does a former solider from a country that never had nuclear weapons know how to remove a nuclear warhead from a 1950’s vintage hydrogen bomb? And modify it?
-The shootout was pretty cool actually. Jack was very macho. The van rescue worked for me. Chalk up one scene for the writers.
-”So we die…we just care about being together”. Whatever.
-Jack! Don’t take candy from a stranger!
-HA! “Sawyer….listen…you don’t get it”….SMACK! Kick to the twins! Nice.
-All the female characters on the show are kooks.
-The magnetic chaos was a laugh fest. The tool box to the back of Jack’s head and the guy getting skewered by rebar was priceless.
The rest was as crappy as everyone said.
Lost.
I loved how they DIDN’T show the entire submarine escape. All sorts of warning klaxons go off when they start to ascend, but we are left to believe that the dozen-or-so crewmen (or more—who the hell knows) don’t respond and our love triangle can just hop on a raft with no resistance whatsoever. [/eye roll]
Fuck this stupid show and its lazy writers. There’s simply no way to salvage this mess at this point, and rather than tying any of it together, they’re content with piling on the improvised bullshit on top.
Also, Jacob lives in a giant foot. Fuck you, Lost, fuck you and your bloated corpse of a plot.
He lives in a foot….and he weaves.
I just don’t get how anyone can stick up for the retarded idiot lostnlost I am out of here!!!!
I won’t hide it, I’m a lost fan and still am, but I can knowledge when a shows quality starts to drop and I have to say Season 5 was the lowest point in the series. The only episodes I really liked were “Dead is Dead” and the Finale. Now I’m not the biggest fan of exposition, but I would honestly have preferred it to spending half the season showing the dharma initiative in first hand perspective. I would have easily swallowed a character summing up the dharma story in a 20 minute monologue.
So as to why you shouldn’t call lost fans retarded? They have their own things that they enjoy to watch and just as you think things that they enjoy are “retarded” is just as likely that they think the same thing about stuff you like. I mean you think of lost fans as dumb for enjoying this “shit” yet they are your peers, so what does that they about you? We all basically were raised in moderately similar educational standards. So lost fans are just as smart as you guys, some could be even several tiers of intelligence above you and above me. SO don’t call them all retards when you personally don’t even know less than a percent of us. Also watch out for the trolls. But I want to ask this one question before I finish. I always had this small nagging thought in the back of my mind for the ending of the show. True we have 1 season left and we technically don’t know where it’s going, but as you posters of whlostsucks.com, would you acknowledge the lost writers as truly epic if they got to the series finale where they suspiciously haven’t answered all to much in the rest of season 6, only to get to a scene where we are about to get the mother load of a reveal only to cut to Damon and Carleton saying “Fuck you guys, we trolled your asses royally. We strung you along for 6 years and got you fuckers, were not going to tell you anything!” Think about it. Would it not be one of the best trollings to date? I mean first of all the fans, both continental and world wide. That’s a decent sized audience would realize that they just had 6 years of build up to nothing and got screwed over, after investing so much time in it. And then you guys realize that the same thing happened to you? The whole thing was a major joke and they got all of us. True they may not be great writers but they definitely got us all. I would truly despise that, but a few years down the road I would acknowledge how cool they truly were.
When we first saw the S4 finale my first thought was “Okay, so S5 will be completely off island stuff, hopefully with a cool conspiracy arc.” That would have been nice but hey, I can only watch the show and have an opinion. But they cut that short and went for dharma times and not a truly interesting moment of time like the beginning or the purge either. I think the incident will be pivotal but I don’t think it deserved 3/4 of a season of build up.
So to clarify what my problem with the show at this point is; Season 5, less the finale and little bits of content throughout the season, was a filler season. Now when Darlton says they have the show all planned out, I believe that they believe they do. Honestly, what they probably have planned out are the big moments and the final scenes and such. Unfortunately for them , in the last season the stuff they have planned will only be an episode or two of screen time. The rest they will have to make up as they go along. Sure, they may have an idea of what they would like to do, but when it comes down to actually finalizing that idea, in my experiences, it often turns out different from the original idea.
Now I don’t know of Darlton and Co. writing backgrounds but for me, I find that it is not the big scenes and plot points that drive a story forward but the small details, the ones you don’t properly think about when you make up an outline for a story. I find that these small and easy to overlook points are more pivotal then anything else. But it takes time to properly write it, with a lot of time to review it over and over until it feels right. This is where I believe the Lost writing staff meets their weakness, and sadly it’s an unavoidable one in the media format for which they write. It is a T.V show and writing for a show that is solely continuous episode to episode is extremely difficult. In order to pull of a story project like LOST and making it good through and through requires time. I can tell you that I have been commissioned for several projects in the past, all with a deadline. I also have some projects that I plan to publish but am waiting to finish before I shop it around. I’m sure you can obviously understand which projects are better than the others.
But for a T.V. show, I understand that the deadlines are rather tight. Also there are many factors that screw up time lines too. Network approval, screen actors negotiations, scheduling, etc., etc., It’s obvious to me to see that their writing time is too limited to properly plan out and write for the show and make it consistently good for people outside the 8 million or so core audience that watches every week at broadcast time.
So I imagine that some of the people reading this post have thoughts like “what is the point of this post you fucktard” or whatever, so I’ll try to sum it up here; Just remember that it is impossible to write the episodes and still have the time to stop thinking about the script long enough to get away for a bit to come back and review it with a refreshed perspective and pick up on the mistakes, inconsistencies, bad lines, etc. that are now in every episode. I can tell you that it has happened more than once that I’ll write something finish the paragraph or scene or chapter, take a break only to come back and review it and say “What the fuck was I thinking?” I’m sure there are the same mistakes in this post; grammar, spelling, whatever. I’m not going to properly review an informal post on an internet forum.
So when some guy in my residence saw me watching lost he told me to check out this site for laughs because they are a bunch of whiners, I did check it out but I didn’t share in his perspective. There are some good points raised by some people here, although most of the posts are quick one sentence posts usually containing some rather abusive content often describe as unitelligent. Now, like I said I am a fan of the show and I’m sure I will be come next May, but I’m not some “retard LOST fanboy” I see commonly referenced from time to time, I’m just a fan, like a sport fan. All I can do is watch and voice an opinion, which I see as a contrast to most people here. You’re just a person who watches it, not for the entertainment value we enjoy as fans, but you enjoy as sceptics, and voice your opinions. I do respect that and have no ill wishes to this site. However, what does make me concerned about this site, namely the posters here, are two things. One is the over exaggerations of certain points of the show. I’ll use Tyler for an example, because as the site owner, he is probably the most recognized poster here. Sometimes you really over do things a bit. One post you made a few weeks ago you made up a fictional meeting in the writers room that went something of the lines like “OK, we are in the 5th of 6 seasons, we have over 50 characters all with loose ends we need to tie up. What should we do? Hey, how about we introduce some NEW characters!” “And let’s have those characters act just like all the other ones, you know, hide things from each other, don’t answer questions, hell, we can even get them to cock a gun!” Now I can appreciate the humour however, it just isn’t true. You know they never had a meeting like that, even though that is how the story played out. Also you said something about 5000 unanswered questions. We know there isn’t that many; I believe the darkUFO count is a little over 300. True, I may be scrutinizing too much here, but I feel it would be a better pay off if you mock the facts, not just silly hypothetical. Just my opinion, take it as seriously as you want; disregard it even if you choose.
My next and last problem with the posters on this site is the real reason I’m making this post, as it is the one that bugs me the most, the name calling. This one I hope you do NOT ignore and give it some thought at least before you choose to consider it or cast it off as “bitching by a little fanboy bitch!” I now that sounds juvenile and stupid, asking for civility on the internet, however it’s the context of the words used that I think should be avoided. The 2 most common I believe is retard (or fucktard) and gay. More often than not, you’ll see posters flame each other here all the time, whether they are on the same side of the debate of LOST’s quality or not. Now granted, I think that some of the posts made are stupid, you know of the ones I am referring to. However, to respond to them by calling them retard or gay is truly ignorant as well as arrogant. For one, these are simply posts, the majority of them being small and vastly short of the content required for those labels. Just because someone makes grammatical errors gives you no where near enough information to justify calling someone gay or retarded. You don’t know what they are like in real life. How can someone claim to know and ridicule someone’s sexuality based on small tidbits of information, none of it including personal information? That is simply stupid. Especially calling someone gay when we are in a huge cultural movement, where gay marriage is being accepted in more and more places as the younger generation steadily replaces the older one. And statistics show that the younger generation is considerably more accepting of gay rights than the older ones. Now at this point I’ll simply make a quick defence. Don’t call me gay. I simply believe in equal rights and respect for everybody, everywhere and they happen to be the top issue in the respect currently. Don’t call me a closet case because I know I’m straight, and that’s good enough for me and it really is good enough for everybody. So all I ask is although you have your own opinions and free speech, you can bash the show, you can bash the writers(even though I expressed my views as to why the writing style is not up to par as what is once was, I still say bash them because they are artists and as such, must be open to criticism), but don’t bash the fans, even the stupid ones that come on here and call you all fuckers and stop watching the show if you hate it and etc. Don’t let one stupid fan speak for all of us.
I know I’ve droned on for a while now but I feel like making one last post because during the hiatus, I’m going to be real busy and I don’t see myself coming to this site again and will most likely forget about by the time LOST returns next year. But before I go I would like to leave one parting message in the hopes that derogatory comments have much more restraint here. Also to the ones here that considers themselves intelligent. I notice that a lot of you are under the impression that you have good reasons for why LOST sucks and you certainly do have reasons why it is inconsistent, low quality and so on and so forth. But you seem to be under the impression that you are indisputably right. While you have a chance equal to a coin flip that you are right, the other side of the coin has just as much dimensions. Now true you have clear arguments, the only people who defend the show are people that come on the call you fucktards. No one (as far as I have seen) has come on and presented decent counter points to the argument and as such, your egos can be at times rather annoying as you think you have “won” this debate. However, the problem with that logic is this is the site for LOST haters, and the ones who are intelligent enough to properly defend it are too smart to come to this site and declare “war”. Why? Because they are intelligent enough to also know that it is a show and like all stories you take the good and the bad and just go on about your way. Sure you can debate but people debate about themes in Hamlet, not that it is the best or worst play under the name of Shakespeare(please don’t get into the whole conspiracy thing about whether he wrote his plays or not, the main thing is we have them today
Finally the last paragraph and I mean that. Whether you hate/like it, think its stupid or really stupid, I want to thank the ones that actually finished reading it, as I realize that I have taken away from you one of the precious rare things we have in life, time. Whether it was a few minutes or more for the slower readers, I still took it and I at least want to offer you my thanks if I can’t do anything else. I’ll miss the flamers until the next big thing arrives. But until then, live together, die alone.
There is no way I’m going to take five minutes to read something that has probably taken you hours to write.
Five minutes!? If you can read all that in less than 15 I’ll give you a cookie.
Haha true. Either way I’m not reading it.
omg this is retarded and gay. no offensive meaning hahahaha
Little fanboy is crying about the posting-style on this site!
Well i tell you, i LOST a lot of time in watching LOST. it was my decision but it makes me angry because i believed it would go in a good direction, same as it started.
Season 5 finally told me a lesson. I am not interested anymore in defending this crap, but in flaming it. Doing this i will use gay and retarted, because it’s part of the noble flaming culture.
If you’re getting upset with it, it’s your fucking problem, and you can go crying to your mother about it or masturbate on a losties-poster, . i don’t care.
Dude, that is one big-ass wall of text. I think it’s actually taller than the original foot statue.
Why do these trolls feel like they should regulate how we feel about their precious show? Each time i see a post like that, all i get from it is some poor sap who got his ego bruised, and feelings hurt because we make fun of his show.
I wonder how many tears he/she shed while typing that up.
That’s a whopping 2432 words. Yes, I copied and pasted it into Word and checked the word count.
holy crap your post was long.. i crapped out less than 25% in. I am a fan of the show too, but I wanted to agree with you that I think they completely shortchanged the off-island part of the story, racing to get back to the island and joining dharma… Those episodes are easily the worst of the series. bad writing, bad acting, jumpsuits… almost everything from the bentham episode to the last 5 eps was pretty crappy.
My summary to those who have more of a life than I:
He basically started by saying he was a fan of the show, but defends some of the points we make here.
He then went on to say some of the responses about the show are hypothetical scenarios, like that matters.
He then got pissy because of people “flaming” on here. So what? I hardly ever flame, but it doesn’t offend me to read sarcastic, one-line responses that are meant as humor. Apparently this dude does though.
Moving on, he is apparent some gay rights freak because he, even though he claims to be straight, is offended whenever someone flames and calls the show gay. Wow, no one cares about your social conscience. Where I grew up, “gay” was a way to make fun of something you don’t like or think is stupid.
He then closed by offering a hypothetical scenario to back up an argument, although he previosly picked out Tyler in particular for offering up one in an earlier post this season.
And then he thanked us.
Boom. LOST. Gay, retarded 2,342 word post.
Couldn’t have said it better myself
.
My6Cents (more like 6,000,000), if you ever want a shot in hell at getting published you need to work on your prolixity… BIG time!
Pontificating fucktard.
….(Even I couldn’t resist that one.)
By the way, the Lost writers get 8 months off a year. That SHOULD be enough to time to write a decently scripted season, but it’s not because they’re lazy.
Why did everyone like “Dead is Dead”? Was it because CHAR-LOTTE died
Ha!
I checked and yes….it’s true.
Jacob=”Where’s the money Lebowski?!”
What?
The movie Big Lebowski.
The first scene where two guys bust into The Dude’s apartment.
One of them, the blond one, he grabs The Dude and shoves his head in the toilet while asking The Dude:
“Where’s the money Lebowski?!”
The blond guy, same actor who played Jacob.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
WHERES THE MONEY LEBOWSKI
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
I SHOULD HAVE WATCH THE BIG LEBOWSKI EACH TIME I WATCHED A LOST EPISODE, ID BE HAPPIER TODAY
WHERE IS THE MONEY SHITHEAD? LOL
Classic film. I’m sure I know the actor of Jacob’s antagonist from somewhere too.
he’s in Deadwood
Not seen it.
I’m just reading that some fanboys were crying at the end scene with Botox lol.
I have no friends and have to fill that void with anonymous blog posters
just like you
omg ! Who is the real me? Am I the balck smoke monster?
Maybe you are the white smoke monster.
This episode was so dreadful, my head is spinning. What started out as such an awesome intelligently written show now is filled with nonstop horrific sophomoric crap:
Ø Gun battle after terrible / laughable gun battle (there were two of them tonight alone!)
Ø I missed the big fist-fight between Jack and Sawyer do to a brief thunderstorm power outage, but I’m sure it was well worth the price of admission- oh, that’s right, thankfully this piece of crap is free
Ø Juliet gets pulled down a hole that appears to be about 100 feet deep and isn’t killed, then the big drilling rig falls on top of her and she still isn’t dead and apparently detonates the bomb!
Ø Locke isn’t even Locke- he has apparently fell victim to Invasion of the Body Snatchers by that guy from the opening scene on the beach… you know, what’s his name… the guy we’ve never even seen before tonight
Ø The Great and Powerful Jacob visited everyone in their off-Island lives and is apparently responsible for them either being on #815 or bringing them back, but he is apparently powerless to stop Ben (who looks to be about 5’7” and about 160 lbs.) with a knife and then gets kicked into the fire by the reincarnated idiot from the opening scene who “stole” Locke’s body
Ø Characters continue to suffer from schizophrenia: Kate wants to stop the bomb, then doesn’t; Juliet doesn’t want to go back, then does (because she saw that look on Sawyer’s face)
Ø They continue to kill classic moments from when the show was actually awesome (the scene from the Pilot when Jack told Kate about the surgery when he counted to five to calm his nerves- now, we see daddy told him to count to five- what horrible writing!!!
Ø They show Mr. Four-Toe, even have Jacob living under it, but never really show or tell us anything new about it- same with the Black Rock, for that matter
Ø Then to appease all the fans asking where Bernard, Rose and Vincent have been we finally get the answer: they “retired” and have been living under the radar for 3 years- avoiding the DI, The Others and Jacob!
I could go on and on, but what would be the point? I just hope we see #815 land at LAX next season. That way, even all the TT fans should be fed up with this embarrassment of a show. Good riddance until next season. I’ll be back to laugh all the way to the end- this is the best comedy on TV, after all. One would think it couldn’t anymore ludicrous than tonight’s episode and the whole season for that matter, but I’m confident they will rise to the occasion, yet again.
hey marcb i’ve just read some of your comments on fuselage. Keep up the good analysis!
Best two hours of television I have ever seen in my life.
If your life was 2 hours young on Wednesday evening and your mother is ugly as fuck and she is the most misguided Lost fanboy out there and you were born right in front of TV on Wednesday than your sentence makes a little bit of sense. But I have to tell you that you haven’t seen much yet.
Everybody here needs to chut up. Best show ever.
I feel for you boy, I really do.
to Sam
“Best two hours of television I have ever seen in my life. “
And I feel for you. You know, I’m very happy I can enjoy this and you guys can’t
We enjoy it in a different way is all. We enjoy making fun of it!
” I Iove you James”
” I love you so much”
Aw, that part was so sad.
Lost is the best show on television. Get over it. All of these complaints, I don’t get them. Go to a Heroes complaint site. That show is fucking stupid. Lost knows where it’s going, and it has since season three so all of you just shut up.
Ha! I don’t know why lost fanboys always say that go and watch heroes . I don’t watch that show but I know that in the first episode there was a flying man and a time traveller. It must have been stupid from day one.
But I can’t believe that it is worse than lost.
Best show currently on TV is Breaking Bad. Lost is also known as Raining Shit. It is utter garbage.
Anyone know the ratings of this disaster? Finally below 7 mill.?
no. 9.3 million for the finalé. Really poor for a final episode. Maybe they go under 8 million next year.
Thanks. Yeah, very poor indeed.
24 “Exodus, Part 2″ May 25 2005 20.71 7.5 4 25
23 “Live Together, Die Alone” May 24 2006 17.84 6.4 5

“The Incident” about 9.30
Beautiful decline
you seriously need a life.
Bob, please tell me how!
If this trend is gonna continue then next years finale will be below 8 mill. for sure. And the season episodes are gonna reach nearly below 7 mill on average.
Let’s hope that.But then the fanboys will say: this the smartest show on TV so it can’t be so mainstream.Just the smartest people watch this show, the dumb Americans watch AI.
Lost isn’t smart at all. Writing soup opera dialogue isn’t smart. Writing about time travel again (which is soooo overdone) isn’t smart. And it has been clear since they arrived on that Dharma “boy scouts camp” that they won’t change what happened. Together with the poor writing it makes it all boring filler.
Beautiful decline, indeed. Someone graph it so we can see the pictorial beauty of those numbers!!!
it’s pretty difficult for me to see how you all watch this “just for the laugh factor” when you have guys like this tool who seem to revel in the show potentially failing.
i’ll say it again: you guys really need social lives.
For a person with a social life you seem to spend a lot of time here.
Wonder how much of a budget cut they will have to take due to their declining numbers?
Their finale did not even come close to their opening season episode.
Why do some people like writing long ass essays about Lost or any other TV Show? Yes, Lost rocks but seriously…
And for the guy who wrote this article, I know you really love lost just admit it. Why else would you sit through the finale? Just to have a good laugh? I very much doubt it. You’re as fanatical as the rest of us.
[quote]Just to have a good laugh?[/quote]
Yes Sir, you got it. It’s one of the best comedy shows out there.
OK. Our hrad work starts to pay off. Go to lostpedia, there is a thread about this site.
“Why Lost Sucks
——————————————————————————–
No, I don’t hate Lost. Have any of you ever visited a site called whylostsucks.com? It really frustrates me. Each blog post gets around 200 comments of complaints. I really don’t get how anyone can hate lost. If you’ve seen it from start to finish it’s almost impossible to say that you hate it, it’s just the people who don’t watch it in continuous order. The people on this site watch lost just to complain about it on this site. No lives, haha.
Anyways, just thought I’d share this why you guys to see what you all think. “
Funny. I can feel their pain. Haha
That’ why we can’t give up. This our mission. It ’s destiny.lol
See you guys next year!
Namaste BOOOOM
“It really frustrates me.” is the best part of this revelation.
of course, the 200 or so comments are usually from the same 10 or so people or from jerkoffs who think talking about rose’s pubic hair is the epitome of comedy wit.
No, actually one of the biggest comedy parts of the show is the ridiculous stupid dialogue. So funny. Rose’s pubic hair is just disgusting and I don’t wanna talk about it.
I don’t know whats worse, having a site called whylostsucks or a site called lostpedia? I wouldn’t say I hate Lost, I just think it now sucks. There’s a big difference.
really fucking cogent post, tyler. i can see why you’re the leader of this band of retards.
The real tyler has his name as a link,
or didn’t you notice that, genius?
that is the real tyler, moron. i know that because i was the fake tyler. genius.
“It doesn’t matter” if you watched the episodes out of order, because they couldn’t possibly make any less sense that way.
Your right it probably would be better.
These fucking fanboys don’t have a clue. This shit is just as funny as it gets.
I watched this on dvr and just started fast forwarding through any part with jack, sawyer, kate and tits mcgee. I have to go back to season 1 again and think about how good the kate, jack, sawyer dynamic was. Instead of saying, ok, where can we LOGICALLY and ENTERTAININGLY go with this, they just kept piling on the same shit for two more seasons with Kate waffling back and forth and then simply added another character to the love triangle. Of course like everything else, the relationships themselves became meaningless and unrealistic.
Also – it is abundantly clear to anyone with half a brain that this shit is getting made up as they go along. Anyone who can honestly say that the writers had the Jacob character in their minds when they wrote the first, or second, or THIRD season, is on crack. Its particularly obvious given that its basically the same shit as the widmore/ben feud. They just could not figure out what to do with that storyline so they just “explained” it (oh look Widmore was on the island and he got kicked off because…well
…basically no reason) and then added another layer.
This episode would have been a lot more interesting and meaningful if the jacob/other guy scene had been the first scene of the entire season. The show would be a lot more interesting and I could reasonably believe that the writers had a fucking clue if it had been the first scene of say, season two.
Don’t forget what Locke said:
” I think you just make these rules up as you go along ,Richard”
This a clue
“Also – it is abundantly clear to anyone with half a brain that this shit is getting made up as they go along.”
EVERY FUCKING SHOW ON THE PLANET IS MADE UP AS THE WRITERS GO ALONG, DIPSHIT.
That’s all well and good but people like to claim that lost was planned out from the get-go.
like who?
Like the writers of lost or the fans of lost.
Every show isn’t told three years in advance when it will end retard. You cannot tell me one other show that has that luxury. Lost is quite possibly the only show that cannot use that excuse yet they are more riddled with errors than anything I have ever seen.
fuck that. your post is TOTAL bullshit. no other show is picked apart as much as this show. if you really bothered to overanalyze ever other inane show you watched, i would fucking guarantee they’re riddled with errors too.
don’t give me that line of shit, hoser.
Continuity errors aside, which you’re right I’m sure could be found in most shows, Lost just doesn’t have a focus. They had absolutely no idea where they were going with this whole Jacob bullshit, or the stupid statue for that matter, or the ridiculous titanium crate carrying Locke, or the fact that nobody seems to die on this show. And although Lost has by far the most errors out of any show on tv, even if you did analyze the shit out of everything else, the main problem is its HORRIBLE writing you stupid ass. I could give two shits if Charlotte wasn’t the “right” age during an episode, that kind of stuff happens. However, developing stories for three years that have absolutely no relevance, especially when you know exactly how many more episodes there are going to be left, is complete bullshit and unacceptable.
So fuck you and your dumb ass response nerd.
The original party-line from the writers was that Lost is built like the ‘Sixth sense’ or the ‘unusual suspects’ i.e you have a skeleton of a story and you have the twist/paradigm-shifting ending, and the entire show is build on that mystery, i.e. “what the fuck is happening here?”.
so no, they did claim to have the ending in mind, and they did claim to plan a large part of it in advance; That is what they claimed. So now you admit that it wasn’t… you might want to check with your fellow zombies before admitting that, they might charge you with high treason.
As for other shows being shit – they are, no question about that. but the Lost writers and the fans claim it is the best show ever, that it is super smart that it is revolutionary, so don’t cry when it’s being judged by its own standards. – if someone doesn’t claim to be a genius, then there is no use analyzing every action of his to prove he isn’t. but if he claims to be a genius then, yes, he will be scrutinized.
So if your point is that Lost is just a stupid sci-fi show and that they just make it up as they go along; we totally agree.
Nail on the head Jelson.
What about GUNSMOKE, LOREADO, STAR TREK,THE INVADERS best show ever my ass.
Sorry but picking apart Lost is so much easier and so much more fun than for any other show.
When I thought Lost couldn’t suck any more, they introduced the word “weave”…
I tried once to read a Neil Gaiman comic book, and I really didn’t like it, it was this fetid stew of dark magic, death, gore, bodily fluids etc.
one word he used a lot was “Weave”: as in “weave magic” “weave realities” etc.
I saw other writers use it as well, and whenever i encounter this word I immediately know it is going to suck.
And now Lost is using that word in connection with some powerful aliens/gods/whatever. Can’t say I was surprised.
Now I understand how the writers are going to “explain” all the things people here noticed: they will just say that those are the “rules”: why does the man in black can’t just kill the big J himself? Those are the rules, why can’t Ben kill Widmore himself?
Those are the rules. Why can’t we kick the shit out of Darlton? Those are the rules.
Who makes those rules? and why? LIke I said before, it resembles Babylon 5.
so you think the show sucks because the word “weave” was used in an episode.
It is another (one of million) reasons why it sucks.
Question: If Jacob brought the losties to the island, which means he knew about them, and Ben’s gestion of the island was according to Jacob’s orders, why the hell did Jacob need Ben to get the passenger’s list for? In other words, what was the point of seasons 2 and 3?
Correct me if I’m wrong, this show is such a mess I don’t feel like doing the math.
I meant, “Ben’s management.” Sorry.
Season 2 explained Dharma and the hatch – it revealed a lot more about the island. Jacob wasn’t even intraduced until season 3.
Season 3 was the season of “Others.”
Jacob knows where the losties are because they visit his time later in Season 6. Meaning, he’s known about the losties for quite some time now.
Lost has excellent writing. It’s a smart show. We say that the stupid Americans watch American Idol, because well, it’s true. The ones who watch idol probably have the capability of understanding lost, but they are just too lazy to get invovled.
Most of you guys are assuming that every question asked is an annoying plothole. We have 17 episodes to go you guys, just wait for the answers.
Don’t even bring up Rose’s weave. How she got the weave? We’ll never know? She could’ve beat up a black girl in the bushes, stole her weave, and came back to her little cabin just minding her own business as if she never beat up a black girl in the bushes for her weave. OR, she could have just grown her hair out, like Bernard. (Who looked retarded by the way but it was still awesome to see a reunion!) It made me yell to the tv, I was so happy. And when Rose had her little ghetto Chicago accent, my heart melted.
“Lost has excellent writing. It’s a smart show. We say that the stupid Americans watch American Idol, because well, it’s true. The ones who watch idol probably have the capability of understanding lost, but they are just too lazy to get invovled.”
This is why we make fan of you, you fucking fanboys.You really believe this bullshit, that lost is smart and only smart people watch it! You are dead wrong
Fuck yourselves!
“Most of you guys are assuming that every question asked is an annoying plothole. We have 17 episodes to go you guys, just wait for the answers”
Even with 17 episodes, there is no way in hell that they can answer all the issues and mysteries brought up in just seasons 1-3. When you toss in Season 4 and 5 that’s a shit load more which will never get touched on.
Face it there isn’t anything too smart about lost. Most of the people who claim this are under the age of 18 and probably haven’t seen many shows outside of Nickelodeon or the CW.
“just wait for the answers”
Yes , just wait for it! When Demon said that that they won’t even answer what the island is! It is just a place, don’t ask that again!
they can if they pace the whole season the way they paced the s5 finale… no filler…
Right like thats going to happen.
Sam where fuck are you from? Clearly your country blows and has nothing to offer therefore you have to watch all of our shows and then pass judgment on what’s good and what’s not.
It’s a smart show? Only if you look at how much money they’re making off of idiots like you that still believe they have this shit figured out, then yea, they’re genius’ from a business standpoint. They do have 17 dreadful episodes left but even if they do solve any of the 100 mysteries it will just disprove something else bc of all the contradictions within the story – so they basically have no way out. That might actually be the reason why they don’t explain anything. They’re just postponing the inevitable.
Sam is from the fuselage. Be gentle with her.
There are others from there posting here, BTW.
I recognize their writing style.
Why’d it take you so long to cross over to here? I know, the fuselage has been sucking wind like Lost for some time. Dry you tears and join in the mockery of TPTB. They deserve it.
Dude you did not even get what he was saying.
And just where did you get your information about season six?
i love how people who supposedly hate the show can site you bits of minutae almost down to the very episode.
“We have 17 episodes to go you guys, just wait for the answers.”
Like the answer to the numbers? Which was never answered on the show? If you’re going to present a BIG mystery, you damn well better answer it ON THE SHOW—not in a podcast, not in an Easter Egg on a DVD, and not on some “official” website.
And by the way, one aspect of the statue mystery was that it had only 4 toes. I think it was Sayid who actually posed the question during the show, and it had all the “mysterious” background music to indicate that, yes, this was a mystery, but what’s become of the 4-toe mystery? There are HUNDREDS of these in Lost, because the writers all follow JJ’s sucky directive: throw out mysteries because they’re cool; maybe we’ll get around to answering them one day. Or maybe not, because the mystery itself is what’s so cool.
Shitty, stupid writing makes this a shitty, stupid show.
I say shit cause i’m cool! You sound so intelligent right now. I notice a relationship between people who like Lost and post here, and people who hate Lost and post here. The haters are total douches who swear because it makes them sound older. Grow up you child…..
Thanks for the ad hominem attack Paul. I notice you didn’t even try to refute the points I was making, but I guess it’s easier to be a language cop than to try to defend the piece of shit that is Lost.
Boom.
PAUL=FAIL
ACTUALLY IT’S CHUT UP TIME. SO CHUT IT.
I suppose I missed one thing! Why was this episode game-changer?
Now I have to say that this finale was even worse than last year’s. It was boring as hell and the end must be the lamest cliffhanger evah!
Hey Tyler, I have a question for you:
You mention in your FAQ blog that the inspiration for the site came when you found that the show became rediculous, but your wife still enjoyed it. Does she still enjoy it? Or does she think it’s gone downhill too?
I didn’t find this site until season 4, when I first became frustrated with the show, but I don’t know, the opening scene of this episode has me intrigued again…
She only watches about half the episodes with me, so she’s just a casual viewer. When she does she laughs a lot.
Yes, Lost is “smart”. Though following is highly inaccurate, real numbers should actually be even higher. If following dialogue sounds stupid or funny, don’t forget hundreds of thousands of “smart” fans discussing this with most serious look on their face…
–Lost: Season 5 finale
-”Oh look, it’s hot down there! And the pressure! Look, steel drill will melt!”
-”I wonder how deep the hole should be for such temperature… two years from now, Russians will dig 12km (7,5mi) deep hole and reach temperature of 300°C. Melting point of steel is around 1500°C, so our hole should be times deeper…”
-”I have an idea! Let’s drop a chick in there.”
-”That’s an awesome idea! If our hole is 12km deep, she’ll be hitting ground at speed of 54m/s, that’s 18-story building height in one second…”
…
-”Look, she’s wielding a rock! Run!”
heck, I’m moving to America. If people are really so stupid there, I wonder why I’m not a millionaire yet.
Sorry but your not fat enough to move here…..Unless your Mexican, then you can cut my grass for like a million pesos.
Looking forward to seeing this nutty, sci-fi, melodrama, sit-com through to its certain to be goofy and cop-out conclusion, and see what F’d-up hilarity, cliche, and overall BS the writers still have in store for us.
Regardless of the irritation, annoyance, and excessive eye-rolling it is likely to produce in equal proportion to the laughs.
And looking forward to being back to see all your comments again next year, and get a few chuckles, when the EVENT continues in the GAMECHANGING season premiere when DESTINY IS REVEALED IN 2010!
(sounds like bullshit to me too)
There’ve been some interesting, informative, entertaining, and often pretty damn funny comments and observations i’ve read here over the months after each new weekly episode, and that’s the only thing I’ll miss about the show being gone for a few months, then forever.
Intelligent, logical, and mature people with good taste all agree,
LOST SUCKS
I agree whole heartedly that it is not only to put the show down because it truly sucks, but also to make fun of it and the fanboys who love it too.
Yes! Ha!
I figured out this dialogue
Kate : “we should prevent jack from exploding the island”
Botox : “sure we should, let’s ride sawyer”
Kate to rose : “are you crazy we must prevent jack ”
Botox to rose : “we all gonna die here if we let jack do that shit , let’s ride sawyer”
Jack : “are you with me kate in exploding the island ?”
kate : “offcourse i am ,why the hell did i left you ,went to the submarine and then came back ?”
Botox : “sawyer, we aren’t meant to be together so let him explode”
Sawyer : “as you wish”
Sawyer : “do we let jack die ?”
Botox : “live together , die alone ……………….no no wait let’s save him”
Think about that Demon says that the last season will focus on these “characters”! I suppose we have 17 miserable episodes ahead of us.
ok but who is left?
I don’t know brotha! maybe they introduce some new characters to kill them in the last episode.
The only good character on this show was Desmond.It seems his story is over..
Though I like Ilana, her tits are awesome and I like her cock-suking lips.
Thats pretty funny and the thing is your probably right!
the performance of these four characters became so miserable and disappointing . they much different than in S1 or S2
i can feel them saying (what the hell are we doing ?
why are we acting again ? this show should have ended from S2
no one of the stupid 6 has one good reason to come back
The last episodes of Prison Break were pretty good.
Jacob and his antagonist appear in Prison Break as buyers for Scylla and get killed in quick succession.
Polar Bears. Jacob lives in the statues shoe. There are two islands. Kurt Cobain. Peanut Butter and Jelly. Ward Im worried about the beaver.
yeah how come we didn’t get to see the polar bears in the 70s? that would have been neat.
They spent their special effects budget on the submarine departure.
The greatest character of the season was CEZAR. At most 5 lines, just terrific!
Ok. We learned that dharma folks were nothing but a bunch of idiots. But we also learned that the others are also a group of idiots. A plane (316) just landed on their island and they were just sitting on the beach, they don’t have any idea what they are doing, why they are following orders from Jacob, Locke, Ben, Alpert or whoever..and why are they kidnapping children?
Re: My6cents
This is a site dedicated to trashing a television show. This isn’t the posting section on the Economist website. People can be idiots if they want to.
And if you spend more than an hour reading/responding on Why Lost Sucks it means that you’ve dedicated another hour (at least) per week to LOST. Think about it…how much of your time are you going to spend per week focusing on a television show?
For the rest of you:
Is it me or have the shots fixed on the books people are reading become longer. So you can read the title and go buy it?
Quick show of hands, who picked up Brothers Karamazov because of LOST? Flannery O’Connor? Dick?
Thank god I have my Wednesdays back for 8 months.
There was also that book Regina was reading upsidedown on the freighter – The Survivors of the Chancellor. Total drivel.

Season 5 was actually my favorite season.
Why? because claire wasn’t in it?
Yeah! exactly! it’s like you read my mind. how did you know?
Because i’m you
Then that must mean i’m you too!
Holy shit! Boom. 2010.
we probably just made tyler like 70 cents
No, you mean I just made tyler like 80 cents. You’re welcome, buddy!
You wanna make it a dollar?
Sure, why not.
I sure hope everybody keeps there children far away from you dude!
I sure hope you at least keep your children far away from your spelling and noun / possessive personal pronoun agreement skills.
$1.20 for Tyler.
spellimg?
their there they’re
Remember first grade?
And “everybody” is singular; therefore, it’s a “his” or a “her.” It’s not a “their” or a “there” as you like to spell it.
And it’s “spelling,” not “spellimg.”
Yes. I am that anal, just like Farah Fawcett’s cancer.
$1.40
Oh good. More people are making money for tyler. Keep on adding! Lost fanboys are welcome too!
damn that peepeeface dude is cold. he reminds me of myself, but i’m not quite as evil. or am i?
you misspelled farrah, mr perfect.
I did it all on purpose. I realize to that I am lying!
Your anal ass should have put a capitol T on Tyler’s name dumb-ass! Also first grade was way to long ago. So maybe you won’t be so critical of others Mr. PEEPEEHEAD, PEEPEEFACE, YES, NO or whatever your name is.
We gotta be gettin close ta two buks by gnow, know, gnaw.
Oh a sorry thats POOPOOHEAD not PEEPEEHEAD. NO, really I am sorry.
YES, I am.
I think we’re at $2.30 now
MAYBE, not.
two dollars and fifty cents
WHY NOT, Thats what I say!
I GUESS, thats it.
400th post, bitches. do any of you think lost will end like memento?
Jacob and his brother are some form of nimrod demons left-over from Atlantis. The show will end with them sitting on the beach with one saying to the other, “Oooh, you think you are so smart manipulating time and all that jazz, Im gonna get you next time sucka.” This thing is suddenly giving off a very strong “Devils Advocate” vibe. Yoooo know, where Keanu Reeves try to outsmart Lucifuge himself Al Pacino?
I suppose, when lost ends one year from now, this site will be the most popular on the internet. Thousand of fanboys will join us.
BOOM
BOOM!
inverted BOOM!
!MOOB
Wake up. There are maximum 100 Lost haters on the wide world who visit this site. Now how many fans are there?
(NOOOOO, not hate, we tink Lost SUCKS. Dat iz a dieferens)
So you think that this small rasta band here are smarter then the fans because they see how “bad” the show is?
Thank God I’m enjoying the show!
dat iz wut yoo kall a vas deferens!
Quit thanking me!!! I don’t want to be connected to this piece of shit show. Sometimes people like you make we wish I never allowed 1st cousins the ability to make children.
* Palms face *
I AM THE REAL GOD AND I THINK FANBOYS ARE GODDAMBED IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
God’s fanboys are the worst
Sooooo…
Jacob lives in a statue… Ben knew Jacob wasn’t in the cabin all the friggin time but yet he wanted to go to the cabin to see Jacon in season 4 with Locke and Hurlo. …….

A must watch parody of Lost

“now that there’s time travel, there’s no need for logic”
replace the XX with tt in the link
Your link don’t work dude, and yes I changed the xx to tt.
haha fucking great! No logic !
BOOM
OMG These parodies are hilarious .duuude
Waaaaalt hahah.
They show exactly how stuipd this show is!
“They show exactly how stuipd this show is!”
Actually, the Fine Brothers are big fans of LOST. I love these videos. Personally I don’t think that they intend to show how ’stuipd’, as you put it, the show is.
Oh. I almost forgot…
FUCK YOU!
Love from,
GetAFuckingLife (Yep, I’m talking to YOU!)
Haha that’s great man. It’s like they took everything we’ve been bitching about lately and brought it to life. Very good.
In the series finale, Jack may wake-up at Bob Denver’s place after a night of heavy-duty partying, and watching dozens of Gilligan Island episodes on DVD (at Bob’s insistence) before passing out in pot-haze, to realize the entire series run of LOST was simply a long, tripped-out, stoner nightmare brought on by Bob’s killer stuff, and the whacky high-jinks of some castaways on a goofy 70’s sitcom.
Jack swears he’ll never party with Bob again, and sort of regrets having met him at that charity hospital fundraiser.
To Jack, his lucid, whacked-out dream makes him feel as though he had been trapped in an increasingly crappy TV show that dragged on for a terrible 6 years, building up to an eye-rolling, letdown resolution.
Then we will have actually lived Jack’s nightmare for ourselves, in reality.
What a video, Brotha!

OK so with wonder botox setting off the bomb I take it that this will break the time barrier and our hero’s, wait I mean zero’s will get back in the regular time zone? I would think that being that close to a nuclear blast would certainly kill them all. But so OK this is LOST so who knows, but if they do get back or forwards I guess it would be. What does this mean? No purge? No wonder botox? Well whatever it means it don’t really matter because no matter what I guaranty its going to be stupid. Like when Locke sends Richard to go help the shot Locke, this means three of them at once. PLEASE! I bet these fanboys just eat this shit up. Well anyway you look at it we still have one more season to make fun of this total suckfest! To me thats what its all about.
this one is old but it’s still the best:

What the hell did happen to Walt anyhow? I don’t remember at all. He is still alive, I remember.
And wasn’t he a pretty major character with an important destiny that’d likely be revealed in time, through good writing, as the series went on beyond it’s first season?
I think I remember that the writers had Michael go KABLOOIE on that freighter awhile back, and thus conveniently and lazily eliminated another major character so as to avoid the hard-work, creativity, and talent it would take to resolve Michael’s destiny through a well written, logical and satisfying story.
Thought the show was headed up the ramp towards jumping-the-shark way back when it seemed Walt had been snatched by some bad-guy gun-toting hillbillies on a boat, but i’m amazed how long its jump across the shark has lasted, and how corny and full of cliche it has been allowed to become.
There’s entertainment value in LOST still, but Lost is GOOFY! and cannot be taken seriously, and i don’t understand how any fan, being honest with themsevles, could seriously argue otherwise. Unless you’re kinda Goofy too.
Walt doesn’t matter anymore. Good proof that the writers are assholes. Walt was one of the most important character in the first 2 seasons.Same about Aron.
But now, Jacob and Fake Locke are the important one. You know the first 5 seasons were the “progress”, the great lead-up to their big game.Lame.
“There’s entertainment value in LOST still, but Lost is GOOFY! and cannot be taken seriously, and i don’t understand how any fan, being honest with themsevles, could seriously argue otherwise. Unless you’re kinda Goofy too. ”
Geeks, nerds, social misfits, people that long to live in another dimension or solar system…..yeah, that’s about right.
and people who live alone with their cats…
I think you may be right on and that’s why people hate it. I embrace how corny it can be. I haven’t given up on Walt. After all, they did show him in season 5. Lost is awesome and there is no way around it. People who hate it probably hate life. Do any of you hate The Wire? just wondering…
Don’t you ever ask me that again!!!
“What the hell did happen to Walt anyhow? I don’t remember at all. He is still alive, I remember.
And wasn’t he a pretty major character with an important destiny that’d likely be revealed in time, through good writing, as the series went on beyond it’s first season?”
“He doesn’t matter.”
What did the hand say to the face?
SLAP BITCH…
see you faggots whenever the show starts again…mebbe…
What’s gonna suck as much as Lost till it comes back to suck in 2010 ?
Not getting to complain about it.
the unusuals already got cancelled. that means michael can come back.
In a flash-forward sequence with the 20-something Walt.
Turns out he hadn’t been killed off in so lame a fasion after all, and after getting blown off the boat, was picked a passing submarine that took him to another secret underwater research facility in the vicinity of the island with a TIME PORTAL that takes him to his reunion with Walt.
LMFAO UR SO FUNNY. get a life u fucking douche. You watch Lost and make fun of it instead of just not watching it? What i think, is that you like the show but you’re trying to be a badass and say ” O Lost is so gay! I hate it even though everybody likes it!” I like Lost and im not trying to be badass and say i hate it. so fuck off
So your point is? Oh wait, I get it, you suck just like kosr but we don’t watch you.
Hey Paul: I guess it’s ok when you use profanity huh? Why then did you slam me for the same thing upthread? Oh yeah, it’s because you’re a hypocrite and a tool and a very very sad fanboy who can’t stand to see people make fun of his favorite show.
Somebody call the Waaaaaahh-mbulance!
His exact words were:
“The haters are total douches who swear because it makes them sound older. Grow up you child…..”
Haha it’s apparent that some village is missing its idiot.
Wow Paul. Not trying to be a Badass or too Funny or anything. I just like coming to a site specifically existing to make fun of and vent about a show that I did used to really like for its serious drama and well-crafted stories, but now really like in a weird way for how all-over-the-place farfetched and melodramatically zany it’s become. At thee same time annoying me with the directions it’s story continues to take. Lost just Sucks, in my opinion, but i still get a kick out of watching it. Just last week, Sawyer breaking down in soap-opera tears was Great. It wasn’t supposed to, but it made me smile. But at the same time time it bugs me that the writers have placed such a great, complex, and badass character into a cheesy, love-triangle, time-travel, soap-opera dilema. Just opinions, but you get all huffy and worked up about it.
And I’m the douche.
Did you have a big old fuckin batch of chocolate frownies today Paul?
Oh man dude you forgot something!
Waaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllt!!!!!!!!!!

haha
1. If that Locke-zilla is such a superior being, shouldn’t the first thing on its mind be to hide the corpse of the real Locke?
2. Shouldn’t Locke’s body smell to high heaven? How come Lapidus didn’t smell it?
3. How come Richard didn’t ask Jacob if he wanted to see Locke, instead of just letting him see him?
I’ve got many more, but, what’s the point?
Nothing my friend.If you are looking for logic, you are watching the wrong show.
I’ve got another one for ya: why doesn’t rigor mortis affect Locke in the Box? He should be stiff as a board and coffin-ready, but when he rolls out of the titanium crate his body is all twisted around. I guess the island’s to blame…
3 words…”Weekend at Bernie’s”… a movie that is the cat’s ass for the writers of Lost

Kate’s diary alone is worth the price of admission. Sawyer’s is great too. If you hate Lost, you’ll love this.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA WOW, That Larry dude he must be related to lostnlost somehow. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Show is a fuckin masterpiece. HAHAHAHAHAHA Thanks dude I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
OMG there are 2 sneek peaks from Botox’s new show. Her face expression is the same as in lost.What a surprise!
I think I’ll have to watch that show as I can’t live without her botox frozen face.
I hope it gets cancelled early on so we can know what happened to juliet. actually i don’t really give a shit. nevermind.
I think the Botox in her system was strong enough to break her fall with enough left over to neutralize the bomb – equivalent to the midichlorians from Star Wars.
The white flash at the end was 2 seconds of incomplete CGI that missed the deadline.
damn you’re right! I just saw some of the promo pics for her show and she has that same half happy/half constipated look on her face that she always has had on lost.
BUMMERS! NOW I HAVE TO WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR!!!
…for season eight of “24″.
499
OMG. WhyLost Sucks is better than evah.Record number of posts. Lost sucks mor than evah.
WHITE BOOOM
Wow, yeah! 500 minus all your posts = 50 minus other peoples double post = 40 Lost haters, millions who doesn’t care/never saw it and millions who loves the show.
“Millions who love the show”
Yea you’re right, American Idol is great.
yeah, I forgot to mention the large amount of fanboys here. You are welcome here!
A new record!!!!
A white boom was the game changing cliff hanger. There are already 100ths of theories what the white boom could mean.
Botox wakes up naked in jungle?
Juliet’s return will involve nudity, Charlie’s jar of peanut butter and Vincent.
What? No love for Dharma brand hot dogs?
White flash is what how a marathon group masturbation session…err, I mean writing session ends for Darlton and the writers.
A rip off of Sopranos fade away to black. Nothing “game changing” just same old smelly shit coming back next season.
Well since time has been “reset”, I’m sure ABC will run season 1 as season 6. Its and endless loop!
HA, you may be on to something. I really don’t think they are that smart.
Demon said that the last season will be similar to season 1. Maybe you are right and then this site must be closed as the first season didn’t suck.
That’s great!
Yeah, they’ll rip off Stephen King’s Dark Tower series. Destiny as a cycle. The end is the beginning.
Season 1, with the mechanical hatch discovered out in the dense jungle wilderness and the flashbacks and some of the characterizations reminded me quite often of moments from the Dark Tower series.
Actually I thought season one sucked as well. The flashbacks were annoying then and I just don’t give a shit about how the characters “lost” their way in life. At this point I don’t give a shit about the characters at all so watching them find their way in life is going to suck even more. Golly gee, Jacob was there at the key moments when they “lost” their way. Who cares? Let me guess the finale has them making different choices at those key moments in their lives. Whoop-de-fucking-do we needed 6 seasons for that?
The only interesting thing about the show was the island but once you realized that it wasn’t thought out and just random meaningless shit that became uninteresting as well.
The only good thing left is the poor writing and acting. At least it’s so bad it’s funny.
BOOM lost…..
OMG the new hit on ABC will be FLASHFORWARD.
Yes. Be careful as the title is an important concept of LOST. They even promoto it as” from the network that brought you LOST”.
By the way, Penny is main cast.
Too much lost in it so it may suck.
BOOM. FLASHFORWARD.
Look at what I’ve just found. Now all the fanboys are demolished !
David Fury, Lost co-executive producer, “Rolling Stone” issue #984, October 6, 2005:
“There was absolutely no master plan on Lost” insists DavidFury. “Anybody who said that was lying.” “On a show like Lost, it becomes a great big shaggy-dog story,” Fury continues cheerily. “They keep saying there’s meaning in everything, and I’m here to tell you no – a lot of things are just arbitrary. What I always tried to do to do was connect these random elements, to create the illusion that it was all adding up to something. Many plot elements were concocted on the fly.”
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
Anyone who continues to say that ‘the writers know what they’re doing’ should look at that quote. I’m sure the writing sessions are just a big board of pictures and darlton just connecting the pictures with lines.
I’m just surprised that some how they didn’t make jin and miles brothers.
If this isn’t proof I don’t know what is!
This interview was done more than three years ago. Its to bad we have had to put with all the shit they been giving for so long about this.
“There was absolutely no master plan on Lost” insists DavidFury. “Anybody who said that was lying.”
I thought that was obvious half-way through the first season.
Actually, wasn’t Fury the guy who left the production after getting into disagreements with the other producers?
He would know though…and yet, all these fanboys still claiming that writers know exactly what they are doing and where they are going.
I guess David Fury is one producer laughing at all the fanboys that tune in every week.
Well now that the Season 5 battle is over I guess I’ll abstain from marching down the hill and shooting the wounded.
Thanks to everyone for all the laughs. I hope you all enjoy the break.
A big namaste and aloha to Rob, Riley, Simon, MrMonkey, UncleM, Lazarus, Dee, Magpie, I Hate Kate, Lost My Interest, Category X, Lostard, Asadshame, and everybody else. Hope to see you all again next year.
And the fanboys? Well… I hope you all get girlfriends and move out of your parents’ basement (my last cheap shot cliche of the year).
Finally, a special thanks to Tyler for keeping the site up and running and letting EVERYBODY have their say. You seem to be the only board moderator I’ve ever come across who isn’t a complete dick. I salute you.
Boom.
GONE
Enjoy your summer!
Namasté to you too!
Nobody likes you.
Never listen to a Nobody.
And Namaste to you as well.
See you in 2010, when Lost is certain to suck again.
I’ll see you in another year BROTHAS!
Don’t give up!
Yes, another year. Perhaps we’ll see you at Woodstock. What wheel do we need to turn the wheel to end up in 1969?
You need to spin the Frozen Dharma Wheel Of Fortune way down at the bottom of the orchid station. Pat and Vanna will set you right up.
Thanks. Of course I meant to say “What way do you need to turn…”
Take it easy man.
One of the local TV stations over here tried to sponsor a season finale viewing party….not sure they had any attendees.
Aloha
Take care brother. See you next year.
Lost is the funniest shit on TV. Everything looks cheesy, and the acting sucks. The actors try, but they all suck. Everyone dies, everyone comesback. WTFC about answers to stupid questions from season1? I recommend everyone start to give the show more credit. I’m sure the writers are luaghing thier asses off at the bank when they cash the checks.
Any typos or spelling errors don’t sweat. If you don’t like this, please Lick My Balls.
HELLO, H E L L 0, H E L L O, I feel so alone!
O H E L L 0 H E L L O H E L L, I’m not alone!
Tyler,
I know the season is over but it’s going to be a while till the final season starts.
How would you feel about starting a new thread once a week just so we could still kvetch about the show between seasons?
Like an open thread. Once a week.
It would be fun as we reflect on the past season and realize how much the show has declined and it would still bring traffic to the site.
Just an idea.
Thanks.
I created another blog entry so you could demonstrate how you obsess over this show more than most fans, loser. Enjoy.
You’re the obsessed one with your site man. You and the 1000 comments boy Simon adebisie
Thanks!
What is wrong with this one or does it get shut down. Cuz I just live around the corner.
I’m sure there will be another show beyond Lost that the producers and writers are excitedly brainstorming about right now, and that will suck just as much.
Am I an assclown? Or an asscloud?
dunno if this was mentioned…
sawyer mentioned 1977 being one year after his dad killed his mom in 1976… then he says he wants to stay in 1977, go back to the mainland and stop his dad from killing his mom….. hows that possible if it happened in 1976 and they are in 1977?
The ultimate failure of this website is that even though the elements of the show you point out are indeed ridiculous, Lost is STILL the best show ever made. It’s a hard thing to accept, I know.
lolol
Hear Ye, hear Ye verinon…As much as Lost has failed some of us, name 3 shows on NATIONAL TV that can fukk with it…Are you kidding me? Watch one of these tards say Dexter, LMMFAO…Regular TV punks..
You all make good points, the thing I don’t understand is, wasn’t the point of blowing up the island to make it so they had never been to the island in the first place?! so. . . S6. . really? how? what do they have to do with the island anymore?? seeing as now, they never crashed there.
Umm… if you hate Lost so much why the fuck do you watch it.
There’s no point in watching a show for 40 minutes a week that you describe as a waste of time.
The last thing I’d do if I hated a show is watch it. You giving ABC and that show you depise more viewers.
This site is absolute bullshit and every single person on here who slags off Lost but still fucking watches it is a fucking stupid arsehole who needs to get a fucking life.
Though I do feel like a hypocrite because I previously mentioned that you shouldn’t give something you hate more popularity and I’ve just give this piece of crap site another hit.
Oh well.
Fuck you all!
“They show exactly how stuipd this show is!”
Actually, the Fine Brothers are big fans of LOST. I love these videos. Personally I don’t think that they intend to show how ’stuipd’, as you put it, the show is.
Oh. I almost forgot…
FUCK YOU!
Love from,
GetAFuckingLife (Yep, I’m talking to YOU!)
Here’s a little site I’ve put up if you get confused:
http://www.doeslostsuck.com
yes m8 a nuke can survive a 100000000 foot fall!
u arsehole if u knew anything abt them you would no it is impossible to detonate a nuke withought detonating it . fact. search it up if u dont belive me
a nuke will only go off when detonated baster! no other way!
so mabies juliet hit the detonator ???????????
prik
First: Only a moron could watch this show and be “entertained”.
Second: I’ve got a great Lost drinking game however that wil improve this show about 1000%. Yeah, admittedly it’s like beer goggles for your episodic TV show viewing. Of course, even “beer goggles” can’t make the 500 pound, wart covered, mustachioed fat chick into a hotty. However, this game will lower your own personal standards enough (and deactivate sufficient brain cells) to make the world’s dumbest fucking TV show actually passably entertaining.
Anyway, take a drink everytime someone asks a fucking question on the show and does not get a straight answer. You’ll be smashed about 15 minutes in (maybe 5 if you are a light weight) and the show’s horrific suckification starts to wane a bit.
Seriously, the whole “dum dum DAH!” mystery question with no answer or an enigmatic answer bullshit sort of loses ANY POSSIBLE EFFECT on someone with an IQ greater than that of a pet rock by about the 5th time this plot device is used in the span of five minutes. Not to mention the entire show has been predicated on this bullshit for what, 5 seasons? I’m not going to do the math to see how often the hack writers have gimped into the set each episode with this bullshit, but its easily in the thousands. Fuck, I could write this….
Jack: So what’s for lunch today Jane?
Jane: Something I found in the jungle.
Jack: Really? What’s that?
Jane: It was in the jungle over there near the beach.
Jack: Oh….so was it a fish?
Jane: Near the beach….we’re having coffee for a beverage.
Jack: Ok…great I love coffee…what are we having for the main course?
Unknown Voice interrupts conversation: I am an unknown fucker from the future…just call me “Them” and I hate you. I am going to kill you for no forseeable fucking reason.
Jack: Who are you?
Unknown Voice: Who are you?
Jack: I asked first….
Unknwon Voice: Shut up fucker and die from your mystery illness.
Jack: Ummmmm what illness?
Unknown Voice: It harnesses the energies of the island and makes your energies all wierd.
Jack: What kind of energies? Huh? Jesus what is this illness?
Unknown Voice: I will tell you after this unknown cloud of shit flies by.
etc.. etc…
Anyway, the “beer goggle” state induced by my patented drinking game is also very useful because your fermented brain also won’t have to ponder the asshatness of a writer that uses “time travel” as a plot device. Seriously, if you can’t write worth shit, just write something based on time travel. It’s like the whole damn “deja vu” or dream sequence episodes that went out of style like 50 years ago when TVs had fucking knobs on them.
God this show is shit. My friend persists on watching it. Yes, he is a fuckign moron and yes I make it my life’s duty to disrupt his viewing “pleasure” of this spectacle of idiocy. Fucking christ I’d pay to see every one on this island ass raped by mutant radioactive monkeys and left to die.
B.F.D.
One more time…..
I still don’t get it…..
