You can totally tell that this Michael episode was a last minute rush job. It was boring, hardly anything was revealed and it was totally recapping everything for the thousandth time. Gosh I love LOST too much, which is why this is really pissing me off.
We're all huge LOST fans but be honest and let's talk about what a drag this ep was...Sadly.
What are you talking about? The back story was kinda blah, but the revelations were fantastic. You must have passed out....the gift, the shark logo, the shot at kate....the conversation with Locke, the tick marks on the wall.....
I have to agree. Ending two episodes in a row with the exact same hatch cliffhanger is an insult to our patience. The Michael flashback paralleling his stages of mourning for Walt's abduction was good, but people are understandably fixated on the hatch at this point.
If it were me, I would've left the fate of the raft people up in the air for one more episode, and made this a Locke episode entirely dealing with the hatch. Okay, maybe one quick scene at the very end to reassure the womenfolk that Sawyer is still alive.
I don't know what you're talking about.
We learned that Desmond is down there doing...um...something.
And now we know all about Michael losing Walt...even though...nothing new..or interesting.. was revealed.
We know why Locke took his shoes off when entering the hatch!...crap, no we don't.
Well...damn.
Well I'm sure most of us are aware at this point that the epiosde was originally shot as a Sawyer episode...and was only recently changed.
Although I enjoyed the island stuff...I think it was painfully obvious that the flashbacks were pointless. Also the island stuff seemed more focused on Sawyer than Michael...He was the more sympathetic figure in most of the scenes...and they seemed to be more from his point of view. There were so many parts in which I kept thinking it would be the perfect place for HIM to have a flashback...
On a radio show yesterday (Tuesday) here in SE Michigan, one of the writers promised that next week's episode would be one of the most profound of the season. Yes, the first 2 have been great and he acknowledged that they would spawn a whole round of speculation, however, the next one is supposed to provide some serious insight.....the energy source, Locke's change (whatever that means), and something about the numbers.....we'll see.....
I actually agree as well. This episode revealed some things but then again it didn't reveal much at all. You waste 5 mins of total screen time just so we can see that kate heard the conversation? They made it seem like they would go past the point of Jack saying "You" but they didn't they cut it off. I was a bit disappointed at that. And they wanted us to seem very surprised that he was typing in the numbers on the computer DUH!

What show were you watching?!?!?!?
No, I didn't pass out. The backstory wasn't "blah," there was no backstory. We knew all that. There were hardly any revelations. The gift? Big deal. We've seen the comic book with that wild animal already. The logo on the shark was the only thing that was semi-startling but it's not worth the whole episode. The shot at Kate? Desmond did NOT know Kate was there and there's no way you can even prove that. Right now all we know is that Desmond was just showing Jack he meant business.
