I'm actually waiting more for LOST than 24

At least I'll have the 3rd season of Arrested Development and the continuance of the 4th season of Family Guy to get my mind off of these 2 dramas

That was really good, but the ending kinda sucked with the same old thing, what's in the hatch? :(
I'm guessing the whole objective of the smoke was to the the black kid, not the infant boy like they thought. But who knows why.

I'm really lost on the whole mechanistic machine though. And the fat guy said "the numbers are bad" on the hatch?

24 sucks. they should just call it "Jack Bauer saves the world show."

He is saying that because he lost so much to those numbers, he was arrested, his mother broke her foot, his house was on fire and other things.

man TV sucks, bt is the way to go. Who posted that the hatch was part of the plane ? There's no way because the shaft looked like it was solid concrete.
The thing about Lost is that there have been logical explanations to all of the mysteries, there haven't been any fantastic ghosts or monsters. Yeah the polar
bear was out of the blue and there's still an machine howling in the woods, but I posit that Walt just has a stunning knack of forshadowing impending events.
Thus far the coolest bit of mystery has been the numbers, that and I really like Hugo's character.

Yeah, I was REALLY scared towards the end that Hugo was going to die in the dynamite explosion ... but I'm really glad he stayed on ...

They absolutely need to keep Jack, Locke, Kate, Hugo, Michael, Walt (duh), Sawyer, and maybe the rock star.

Actually ... they need to keep them all. If one more dies, the show isn't going to be the same.

the numbers thing is drawing me back:

4 = 4

8 = 4+4

15 = 15

16 = 4+4+4+4

23 = 4+4+15

42 = 4+4+4+15+15


it's 23 that's screwing me over ... 15 and 42 are not problems because of this:

flip the "5" in "15" and you get "12" which is 4+4+4, keeping the pattern somewhat intact

turn "42" around and you get "24" which 4+4+4+4+4+4, also keeping the pattern somewhat intact


but how would get "20" (4+4+4+4+4) from "23" ??

Yeah I was pissed that Boone died, his sister can go what a cvnt. I dunno the whole Ian thing is even freakier now that
they showed it was Danielle who tried to kidnap aaron. But i guess its still left to consider that there are other survivors of the
crash and that they could easily add new characters to replace those that bite it. Oh yeah, and the way they have locke teetring
on the edge of whether you feel you can trust him or whether's he's going to go psycho. Plus I was wondering if the shaft leads to
a similar place where Locke was being dragged to by whatever, and when he was being dragged it sounded a lot like chains rattling
hinting to some kind of trap rather than animal.

JJ Abrams used 47 in Alias. I don't think anyone has figured out why. Probably because there's no real reason. He's just being a tease.

4+8+1+5+1+6+2+3+4+2 = 36 ... 3+6 = 9

4+8+15+16+23+42 = 108 ... 1+0+8 = 9

36+108 = 144 ... 1+4+4 = 9

48+15+16+23+42 = 144 :Q

i just saw it for the 1st time today.

got some questions:
1) that bald guy couldnt walk before the plane crash?! so how is he walking now?

2) when they thru the dynamite into the hole, why did the force only go out the other end of the tunnel?

3) according to what i read, there were about 4 dozen survivors. Where are the rest of them?

4) that girl that stole the baby was on the island for 10 years? and she had a rifle on her shoulder?

5) who are the drug dealers on the power boat? or is this 1st time you've seen them?

Thx
