So, Two Guys Are Sitting On a Desert Island . . .
One's wearing a white shirt, the other black. Is it a smackdown between Good and Evil? Macs and PCs? Rosencrantz and Guildenstern? Nope, it's the big Lost season five finale, with tons of spoilers ahead. More »

Lost: The Beginning of the End—of Season 4, Anyway
Leave it to Lost to broadcast an episode titled "There's No Place Like Home" (the mantra Dorothy must repeat, while clicking the heels of her ruby slippers, to get back to Kansas) on May 15, the birthday of L. Frank Baum, author of the Wizard of Oz series of books. Henry Gale, as you may remember, is Dorothy's uncle in the movie version of the Wizard of Oz, and the alias by which Ben Linus first introduces himself to the survivors of Flight 815. Anyway, as we go into the final two hours of the season (the week after next), the Losties seem closer to rescue than they've been since the crash. Spoilers follow. More »

Lost: Move It or Lose It
I love John Locke. I love Buddy Holly. And yesterday was my birthday, so it was nice that they both showed up in "Cabin Fever," last night's episode of Lost. Alas, "Everyday" wasn't released until 1957, which is a year after Locke's birthday (May 30, 1956). Maybe more time travel? Kidding, just kidding. Anyway, what a pleasure to get more of the story behind Locke's rendezvous with destiny. Recapitude and spoileration after the jump. More »

Lost: Just Who Is This Aaron Kid Anyway?
Appendectomies! Everybody's getting them — a major character in last night's episode of Lost ("Something Nice Back Home") and my brother-in-law last week. Of course, BIL had fancy-pants arthroscopic surgery in a hospital, not on a piece of airplane wreckage with Dharma-brand instruments—and I'm pretty sure he didn't want to stay conscious through the procedure. (Maybe they're both lucky the little devil wasn't pulled out through the closest possible orifice.) Lucky for me—and the rest of you who prefer action Lost to melodrama, Lost—"Something Nice Back Home" didn't turn out to be the Jack/Kate/Juliet soap opera I feared. Oh, there were some soapy/sappy moments to be sure, but on the whole it was a solid episode. More about the show, and nothing about my in-laws, after the jump. More »

Lost: Ben and Widmore Play a Game of Risk
Lost returned last night after a five-week break at a new later time with an action-packed (maybe a little too much so) episode. In the words of my Lost-loving friend Karen, Ben and Widmore are playing a giant game of Risk, as they fight their own personal war around the world and throughout time. But more about that and the rest of the "The Shape of Things to Come" after the jump. More »

Lost: Island Says Murder OK, But Suicide A No-No
Sad to say, my first thought on the return of island-escapee Michael to Lost was "ho hum." Quite possibly this was because of the everybody-saw-it-coming reveal, or the fact that I'm still mad at him for selling out everybody on the island. Maybe it's just the annoying way he bleats "WAAAAAALT!" I'm happy to say, however, that "Meet Kevin Johnson" was anything but boring. Michael may be as complex and flawed a character as there is on the show and kudos to Harold Perrineau for making me care what happens to him. Spoilers and discussion after the jump. More »

Lost Serves Up Lima Beans, Pandas, Blood, and Babies
Dear Sun, thank you, thank you, thank you for delivering that well-deserved smack to Juliet's smug little kisser last night. I've wanted to just that for, oh, a couple seasons now, and boy did it feel good when you did it for me. And that's not the only reason I enjoyed the most recent episode of Lost, which came back strong after last week's stumble. Spoilers and discussion after the jump. More »

Everyone Loves Juliet — And Mayhem Ensues
Oh, Lost, Lost, why must you toy with me? Last week so good, this week so dull. We did, however, learn that I am not the only person holding on to VHS technology past its prime. Ben's got his secret videotape stashed away in a safe — and he also got one of the evening's best lines. I chose today's clip not only out of a sense of Luddite solidarity with Ben, but because one of the things I most enjoy about Lost is the rickety, antiquated nature of the island's technological infrastructure. We didn't get to see much of that last night, other than Faraday furiously typing code at the Tempest station. Instead, we got Juliet — lots and lots of Juliet. My least favorite character. Spoilers and discussion, after the jump. More »

Lost Goes Time Traveling and We Sort It Out for You
When my husband got home from band practice last night, I had good and bad news for him. Last night's episode of Lost was the best in a long time, I told him, maybe one of the best ever—but, alas, our VCR didn't record it. (I know, we don't have TiVo, we live in the dark ages.) "The Constant" was a return to first- or second-season form: fast paced, entertaining, and enlightening. When it threatened to end on a note veering into soap opera territory, it came roaring back with one of those great Twilight Zone surprise twist endings that make Lost, when it's good, so very good. Let's get down to spoilers and discussion after the jump. More »

Kate Goes Baby Crazy in a Locke-ocracy
Last night's Lost slowed down the pace a bit with a Kate-centric storyline, after three action-packed episodes. The weakest episode so far this season, "Eggtown" was nevertheless entertaining (Xanadu and box wine with Sawyer — now that's a date!) and enlightening (we learn about a cover story concocted by at least part of the Oceanic Six).
