Your second point seems odd anyway though, i could easily say 24 should have ended after its second series? Star Trek could have ended after the Original Series, Star Wars could have ended after the OT...


the main difference is that Lost doesnt have anything left to show.


Again, says you. :) I can only presume you have not been following the show as regularly or closely as other viewers. One of the shows main criticisms is that it dosn't answer all the questions and explore all the (many) mysteries of the island quickly enough.

Qin Yes i agree, however my point was that Star Wars as a franchise could have finished after RotJ and never reappeared (including books/games and such). I agree the PT is probably the most inferior aspect of the mainstream Star Wars legacy.

R2 Yeah i think i sounded something like Hiro from Heroes when they decided to bring in Sayid, it put most of my favourite characters in one group hehe. I agree about Kate, i just knew she'd go tell Jack, she relies on him too much.

Your three points all make sense, my first thoughts were that Jack thinks he is double crossing the others with Juliet, but in fact is being triple crossed himself or somesuch. The Kate-baby thing is also possible, although i'm not sure why Juliet would tell Jack?

I was refering to the EU as well there Qin, if i remember correctly you are a bit of a fan, particularly of Mandalorians? No EU none of that. Personally i'm most glad Star Wars has continued on after the OT, its created a mythology that counts for a lot more than the original heroes journey that GL wrote about way back.



i quote some random video i saw on youtube a while back

''6 films - or at least, if your a true fan - 3 and 3 imposters that ruined the series!''

:P but yes - im a fan of the EU - and the newer films, but the OT was far better than the Phantom menace and clone wars (ep 3 was by far the best of the 3). The eu could still be around without the Newer films :p

Yea, Sayid was a good choice but involving Kate was a mistake. Of course, if they didn't involve her, she would have gotten rather paranoid, so they were a little stuck.

As for what Jack and Juliet aren't telling Kate... I have a few ideas about that.









1. She is also pregnant.
2. Jack and Juliet knew about the Other's coming to the camp in a few days.
3. Both of them know something about Naomi.

alot of my fav shows are ending soon, heroes, 24, house, i think i'll probably check this out again, finished season 1 and started season 2 but couldnt get in to it, might try again


Parts of series two can be slow, especially for a casual viewer (rather than a 'Lostie') however trust me, if you enjoyed series 1, the end of series 2 and most of series 3 are worth the wait.

**Possible spoilers**

Just saw 'The Brig'. I was really impressed with this episode, it finished Sawyers personal journey brilliantly and set the way for Locke's new journey perfectly. When the script writers are on form the episodes are just so well written its scary. Can't wait to see what Jack is up to either...
I knew they shouldn't have told Kate about Naomi :P

And why does Rousseau need dynamite anyway?

In fact if Star Wars has ended back then, then the JA would not exist...

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, dosn't make it fact. ;)

I got Season 1 on DVD this summer after my cousin reccomending it to me and I also got a hold of the 2nd Season. I am definetly enjoying these recent episodes of Lost. Finally getting somewhere! It took them a while, but now it seems we are getting somewhere ha.


I agree, in my opinion Lost's second series comes across as the worst primarily because it did a lot of setting up (of plots) and didn't give the audience enough back in the way of answers. I'm glad to see someone else agrees that after a bit of a slow start the show has really started delivering. To say its boring is to not understand the definition of boring really.

Quote:
I find it interesting that I started watching LOST during season 2


Thats certainly interesting :eek: haha I can't imagine getting into it through the second series, its got such a convoluted plot.

In my experience shows like Lost always receive criticism for doing things differently, a bit like people in that respect. Of all the shows on tv right now it has the best chance of being considered the 'next twin peaks' in the future.

The story is definitely going somewhere.... They are LOST afterall, and want to get off the island. As for season 1, I find it interesting that I started watching LOST during season 2 :P.

So, do you people that say LOST sucks still watch it?

pfft jack hater! :D


Actually i watched the first two series of 24 when they were first aired in my country and i enjoyed them very much. I even watched some of the supplementary programs that went with the series. I firmly believe Keither Sutherland did a great job with his portrayal of Bauer bringing to life one of the most interesting action heroes of recent times.

However he is not a god and arguments to the contrary should not be placed in this thread as it is not what it is intended for, i'm surprised there isn't a thread devoted to his worship to be honest.

Care to back that statement up with some facts or opinions Qin?

Yea, people, stay on topic. If you like other shows, then talk about them somewhere else :P

As for The Brig, I thought it was a good episode. You don't get anything about eyepatch man, but learn more about Naomi. John's story with the Others is interesting.


Sounds good i've been wanting to find out what Locke has been upto with his new 'friends'. Yeah what Naomi said at the end of D.O.C about the plane was startling. Yeesh someone upload the episode already :P

So, LOST is building up to a nice finale! Getting rather exciting.


Yeah ive been really impressed with it this series, overall a big improvement on series 2. The finale should be huge, and its called 'through the looking glass' which is an awesome title for any episode.

I just hope they dont kill off Charlie...

Oh and do we really need a constant stream of '24 is better than Lost' 'Jack bauer is my hero' in this thread? Its getting kind of old and the shows are so dissimilar that drawing a comparison between them is like comparing Twin Peaks to Desperate Housewives. :)

I havn't seen The Brig episode yet, just waiting for it to appear online, im looking forward to finding out what the deal is with the plane being found and them supposidly being found dead, plus eyepatch man...

24 is better than Lost, you're right. However, House, and The Office are the best 2 shows on TV hands down.
