Okay, I’m spending too much time on this, but… after reading the comments on my post last night and thinking about it more, here’s how I think they should have ended the episode: Sayid, while interrogating/torturing the Guy Who May or May Not be an Other, finds out something equally ambiguous and creepy from him—something… Continue reading How Lost should have ended last night

This week’s thoughts on Lost
Yeah, this is getting somewhat regular: recording some thoughts about the latest episode of Lost. I suppose some of these might be spoiler-y, though, so I’ll put it behind the clickthru. (RSS readers: well, uh, you don’t get that luxury, so watch out: there might be spoilers.)
The Lost Ultimate Theory
This was an amusing read, and devilishly detailed: The Lost Ultimate Theory. I won’t guess as to the accuracy of it—quite a bit seems too science fantasy for my taste—but I will say that if the producers are ever looking for new writers for the show, they should contact this guy.
The (Easter egged?) book on tonight’s Lost
I’ve been informally keeping track of the books that appear on Lost, so of course I caught tonight’s little Easter egg. Anyone else catch the title of the book Locke was shaking through when Sawyer found him in the hatch? The text on the cover read “Owl Creek Bridge”, and a quick sweep on Wikipedia… Continue reading The (Easter egged?) book on tonight’s Lost
The Ultimate Star Trek Collection
This is one of those over-the-top, for-the-person-who-has-everything, I-have-too-much-disposable-income type of things: The Ultimate Star Trek Collection on Amazon. It’s insane: 212 discs All 5 TV series All 10 movies Commentary, interviews, documentaries, featurettes, deleted scenes, trailers, and more All for the whopping-low price of $2,499.99! What a deal! Especially since you save $1,409.

4 8 15 16 23 42 (my long rambling post on Lost)
So these days the one show during the week I have to watch is Lost. Any other show I could miss and catch in reruns and it’s no big deal. What can I say—I’m hooked. I’m along for the ride, and despite my best intentions to simply sit back and enjoy the story as it… Continue reading 4 8 15 16 23 42 (my long rambling post on Lost)
My semi-annual TV rant
Now that the TV season is mostly over I thought I’d post one of my self-indulgent rants on the various television shows I watched and how I’m still a slave to the tube. So, even though everything is over and everyone who was going to watch has watched, there will be spoilers. Click through to… Continue reading My semi-annual TV rant
$40 a day
So one of the shows we watch on Food Network is $40 a Day, where Rachael Ray has a budget of “only” 40 dollars and traipses around the city du jour looking for the meal deals. The tourist-y part of the show is interesting, but the fake-suspense-building (will she go over her budget? Will she??)… Continue reading $40 a day
Sesame Street top 25
This is classic: Sesame Street: 25 Of My Favorite Memories. I kept reading it and nodding. And you’ve gotta give props to someone for coming up with possibly the funniest line I’ve read in a long time: Oh yeah, & if there’s one thing I hate more than those stickers of Calvin peeing on something,… Continue reading Sesame Street top 25
