I don't think it's a political view. Genetically, the fetus is distinguishable from the pregnant woman. Different individual; different departure.

I don't see Hurley standing her up; he's not that kind of guy.

Soooo many to choose from.

I think this is where she wanted to say "I love you" before she lost him forever, and that might have actually stopped him.

Chesssssty! Frank is awesome. And he saw a cow.

Hurley doesn't seem horrified by Jack's plan to change things, the way that Kate does.

My question is, what would his reaction be if he knew that Juliet was pregnant?

Season 4: The Jack-and-Hurley show, where their twin destinies weave together to form a solid cord that's going to bind the Island together.

Ha, excellent pick. He's got one of the best redemption arcs in the story, and his "Thanks, Doc, for everything," comes right from the heart.

I wrote these comments a couple years ago, and I've thought a lot more about Hurley's second go-around in Santa Rosa.

If Jacob brings people to the Island for a fresh start, what is Widmore doing to prove that he not only belongs on the Island, but should be leading these people?

When he comes to Jack, he tells him that Jack wasn't supposed to come back to the Island

Ha, not to mention Hume Yacht Chartering Services, International. ;-)

what did you love most about each individual season?

Okay, this is going to sound weird, but I don't really associate LOST with fun, per se. Shock, wonder, awe, horror, disgust, frustration, reverence, the numinous… not fun, so much. Your question was a good one because I've never really considered the "fun" aspect before.

I got the impression that their conversation in the church in 2x07 ("A Most Powerful Adversary") showed them to have some pretty radically different points of view on life and relationships. It had to hurt when Michael said that he wasn't sure / didn't yet love her.

I figured they pretty much broke up after the conversation in the church (can't remember the Season 2 episode right now.)

In "I Live Here Now" Mary acknowledges waking up, and that she remembers making love with Matt.

I'd argue that a lot of the Bible does go into the inner lives of the people it writes about. Some of the books are better at it than others, and internal monologues weren't a big thing of the writing at the time.

It was definitely foreshadowed - but still a shock.
