Well at least they're explaining something! I think it's kinda cool actually.

i dunno man i didn't see the part before the first commercial break (before the big LOST spins) but so far it just seems to be confusing the crap out of me. all of a sudden they are having mind time traveling.

yeah im heading that way too. Also, the fact that thek keep going back and forth between so many different things it feals like its moving so god damn slow. I mean you have to wait weeks of shows just for them to go through 1 damn day on the island now. The flashbacks always annoyed me a little, but the flash forwards and the time travel and all that just totally annoys me. I mean I feal like I could go and make some random BS non-sensical plot twist filled show that was just the same. And maybe if I got some hot actors like Kate people would watch :p.

I mean like having a group of people lsot on an island is interesting, add in some mystery and it was cool, but then add in so much mystery it just becomes annoying.

edit: what are the 'Enhanced' versions? Are those the ones with the scrolling plot things for the people who can't figure it out for themselves?

I've got the basic 1.4/256K dsl. Are you slower than that? Otherwise the HD streams nice and looks awesome on my HP laptop.

Thank god for bittorrent haha.
yeah same here i'm having some friends over and i can't exactly sit and watch an ep of Lost while trying to entertain. download FTW

Why bittorrent? Why download it at all? Abc.com hosts a full HD version on its website. It posts at midnight.

Because I can have it by 10:30 or so. Can you download the version from ABC's site? What HD is it, 720p? I usually get the 720p rips, but if they have those on their site for DL it would be amazing :)

where can one find this by 10:30? Never up on the newsgroups until the next day.

Desmond's back story is more important now as this new episode shows his ongoing true love for Penny and her seeking him without doubt and how they're both so intertwined.... She is his "Constant."

/ummm.... it's like I got my birthday cake months ahead..... yummy....

wow, great episode.

I think Michael could be Ben's spy...Ben told him to follow a certain bearing. Then today when the guy said "looks like you have a friend on the boat"...unlikely, but could fit.
