AngryPaw:

And yet Evan Rachel Wood is willing to have his babies? Which girl is more credible?

How "Smooth" never made a NOW That's What I Call Music album is beyond me. Same goes for lack of Christina Aguilera. "Beautiful" and "Dirrty" never made one of these albums. HOW is that possible?

"6 Underground" takes me back. CAN'T HARDLY WAIT, back when Jennifer Love Hewitt was the new teen queen, and before Peter Facinelli ever sparkled in the sun. Still love that song.

Throwing my weight at "Who Do You Think You Are." Stuff is groovy.

Never stopped VOLCANO and DANTE'S PEAK, or PAUL BLART and OBSERVE AND REPORT.

Dutifully investigating, Regicide, dutifully investigating.

Did you catch that, Keith?

Maybe Richard is trying to mess with our minds. I believe his quote was this: "I've seen this island do miraculous things. I've seen it heal the sick, but never once has it done anything like this. Dead is Dead. You don't get to come back from that. Not even here." The dead do wander this island, but they're still

Sawyer's moments were actually remarkably touching and were the first of the series to really elicit that response from me. Noel mentioned this show doesn't do true emotions very well. It has with Sawyer and Juliet. However, if a door slamming, narrow-eyed, semi-suicidal Sawyer is what we get for a greater part of

I hope we get into those "rules" some more soon. Ben and Widmore had that little dance with "rules" and then Widmore and Eloise had the same. Eloise once said she didn't know what was going on anymore. Unfortunately I think we have to wait for a Ben, Desmond, or Faraday episode to unravel some of that some more.

Except Hurley. Dude would only fire a gun in defense. He's the purest person on that island. He's that guy you want to be alive at the end of the series, even if it's only him, you know?

RE: Jacob in Sayid. I'm on the fence whether this is still a viable theory. Jacob had his body, which seemed pretty damn mortal to me when he got stabbed, and he had it for a while based on the approaching ship Richard was on. Does Jacob have another form he can take, like Smokey has, well, the smoke? What happened to

There's no way around it: there were seeds that had to be planted in this episode for the rest of the series. But I was bored to death in the temple. If there had been some way to have next week's episode come before this one, I'd feel better. I also trust next week's episode will be the mother load of tension, and

You guys are my kinda crowd tonight. Agreed. Filler episode. Lost momentum. Not the worst episode ever (SiaSL) but I thought I was watching early S3 again. Actually, this season feels like watching another show entirely. It's like ALIAS at its most frustrating and self-serious. I loved last week, but chillaxing by the

Yeah, I was going to point that out. Remember in "LaFleur" the girl who used to be on 24 insisted they had to bury the corpses. I thought it was an attempt to hide them from the Others finding out, but maybe it's because they fear they'll rise up again. And then they took her husband's body, too.

Not up to snuff
Noel, I'm so very glad you found problems with the on-island Sayid/Jack/Dogen/Lennon plot. This episode felt like a real come down from the premiere, like one of those "catch your breath" episodes that cause a full stop to the movement. I felt like we were on the brink of getting somewhere, only to be

Zedophile: Yeah? Well Barretta's super cool.

Joe Chill wants to steal your ice.

Mercy? I'm afraid my condition has left me cold to your pleas of mercy.
