I just said this somewhere else, but I still don't get how the Sideways Universe is obviously a world in which evil has been released into the world. Everyone's doing great, much better than they were. And if Jughead is what broke the bottle, then things have had 30 years to shitty by now.

Whiskey!! As much as you want!

A cfew people on ehre have suggested that, that the Sideways universe is one inwhich MIB got away from the island. But what evidence is there of that? Things seem to be going much better for most of the characters in the Sideways universe. Where's the evil?

Thoughtful Muse: Your theory about Jacob and MIB can still be essentially true even if they turn out to be two individuals.

It doesn't make sense in a lot of ways, but Jensen was suggesting some kind of Faraday/Smoke Monster hybrid. It was a weird enough idea that I want it to be true.

Faraday as Smokey Monster?
Can someone please explain to me Jeff Jensen's theory about the Smoke Monster/Man in Black somehow being Daniel Faraday, and that when Not-Locke is telling the mother story he's referring to Faraday's mother, and that what is locked up in Widmore's (Faraday's father's) is Faraday's

I don't know if I buy
Joseph Adama's reaction when the kid shows up saying that his daughter sent him. He knows that his real daughter is dead, and he knows that whatever is living in the virtual world is just an image. I can understand that as a grieving father he might have a strong curiosity to interact with a

Limited Wheel
It's interesting that from what we see of the wheel, it is COMPLETELY covered with names. This makes me think that however long the Jacob/Smokey conflict has been going on and repeating, it's finally coming to an end game with our current Candidates.

As long as you've got some spare tachyons and a deflector dish to channel them through, you'll be just fine.

It always bugged me that when Bele comes out and says what the obvious difference between him and Lokai is, it's that one is white on the right side and the other is black on the right side. I always wished they had nudged it just slightly further from the obvious black/white thing and said, "Ew, he's black on the

Ebersol's SNL
Say what you will about this network exec, but he was running SNL during it's greatest season ever, with Martin Short, Harry Shearer, Billy Crystal, Christopher Guest, etc. Who cares if most of it was pre-taped; it was brilliant.

The A-Team? Clash of the Titans?
I have a question. What happened to Liam Neeson?

Better Title
Dances with Blue Gungans

I stopped watching after
"We're not in Kansas anymore"??

Maybe someone has said this already, but I keep wondering: As Kurt said, everyone in the world will be waiting for that exact moment to see if their visions are true. So, almost everyone at that moment will be saying something along the lines of "Hey, what do you know! I really AM eating a cheeseburger by myself! Just

This one picture
is exhausting me. Let me guess: There will be long dark curls on the ends of things in this movie. I can't WAIT to ignore this movie.

No such thing
Why don't the nerds whose votes Cordy is trying to woo correct her that there is no such thing as a Vulcan Death Grip?

Thanks, Jimmy James, I was going to bring that up. For someone who claims to have seen Empire 200 times, Hurley's chronology is pretty screwed up.

The Same Man
one thing that stuck out for me in this episode—even though it probably means nothing—is when Locke assures Sun that "I'm the same man I've always been." It's sort of a weird comment, and it hangs there for a second before Ben walks in. This show never wastes much time, so I wonder if that means anything.
