LOST IS FOUND - IT'S FINALLY HERE ! ! !


Tonight is the night most of us have been waiting for. Yes indeedy, LOST makes it back to the airwaves with a new episode. And we have a lot of questions (and probably more after watching tonight's show).
Remember, LOST jumps to its new time slot beginning this evening -- 10:00. If you tend to record the show, remember to adjust your machines accordingly.
Now, who will we find washed up on the beach at Jack's camp tonight? Maybe it's one of the dead people that we haven't been sure is dead. There are lots of those people on the loose. Let's see, there's Christian Shephard, supposedly dead and supposedly in the coffin on Flight 815's cargo area, but . . . and of late there's Rousseau who was shot, but we haven't seen a dead body yet. Before I go on too long with this thread, just check out ABC's site. It has great coming attractions for tonight's episode -- and sneak peeks. A must watch is the all you need to know about LOST in 4 minutes and 24 seconds. If you know anyone that needs an overview, this is for them.

Look at the previews and stuff before you read any further.
You will see that the body washing up on shore looks like it's a man. If I'd have to guess, I'd go with Frank, because he's been missing after trying to get back to the island from the boat, and I'm not sure where that character is going . . . I do like Jeff Fahey as an actor, so hopefully he'll survive. If it is Frank, the helicopter is probably gone, too. What a shame.
Of course, Frank was probably bringing part of Charles Widmore's little militia to the island to attack Ben's camp. Which brings other questions into the what's-going-to-happen-tonight scenario. Are those Rambo commandos going to shoot everyone down just to get to Ben? It is supposedly their main goal; everyone else is expendable. Is it time for Michael (Kevin) to end up dead yet? Now that he's been outed by Sayid, he's a target with a very large bullseye. And you thought you had problems.
I ALSO HEAR THAT WE'LL SEE THE GREAT SMOKE MONSTER (SMOKEY) AGAIN TONIGHT -- WOOHOO!
Less than 7-1/2 hours. GET READY ! ! !

WELL NOW THEY'VE DONE IT -- LOST CONFUSED ME AGAIN


Alrighty then, we're still quite LOST. But we got some news: Sun is in, closing out the Oceanic Six. Speculation about this can be stopped now -- in last week's coming attractions, the voiceover said that we'd discover the LAST of the Oceanic Six. So, we have 'em all: Jack, Kate, Sayid, Hurley, Aaron, and Sun. Jin is unfortunately dead; and this after he had become a new man, not the bad one Sun had known in the days before the crash, and his English was getting quite good.
Which brings up the eight plane wreck survivors, as Jack mentioned in court. We can suppose that Jin was one of the two unidentified survivors (two unidentified survivors plus the Oceanic Six equals eight plane wreck survivors). Of Jack's eight, who will be the last "known" survivor of the plane crash?
Does anybody really know how much power and money and just plain balls it would take to stage a plane crash of this magnitude? The island could certainly have helped Ben with this, but we should see pretty soon how this plays out. Ben and Locke's camp were not featured last night. Though I just kept wondering if the hand grenade had exploded yet. I guess we'll see how this plays out even sooner.
And speaking of out, it looks like Michael has been outted. Of course, Michael has again been manipulated by Ben, who no doubt held the Walt card in front of his face to get the cooperation he needed. Michael (AKA Kevin Johnson) is Ben's inside man on the boat, but where the hell did Walt go? Is he in cargo hold? He didn't go back to the mainland or he'd be an Oceanic Six. He'll pop up, but they better hurry because, like Harry Potter, he's a growing boy and years are passing.
Frank seems to have left for the island again, but not before first supplying the island boys with a good fiber source in several cans of lima beans -- Yum! And a word to the wise, don't read books upside down; the effects are drastic and, as we found out, sometimes lethal.
The main thrust last night was that Sun was having her baby. We see an obvious flash forward of Sun experiencing labor pains and running off to the hospital calling out for Jin. Then we see Jin running around trying to buy a stuffed panda bear, which he does -- twice! But this can't be a flash forward, because we already have the Six. LOST writers do try to screw with the linear-thought-arrangement tools in our heads -- once again -- by having Sun call out for Jin and then cutting away to Jin, who just happens to be talking about getting to the hospital and not knowing the sex of the baby. Pricks!
And we have a rather lackadaisical, though forthcoming, captain. We find out that it is Penelope's father's boat after all -- why did Charlie say it wasn't Penelope's boat? Because it was her dad's?
Finally, we have Hurley, Sun, and cute baby Ji Yeon at Jin's grave. A very touching and sad emo scene. And we once again notice that the flash forwards are getting closer to their getting off the island. Ever the twain shall meet.
