		<description>Neoloki, you&#039;re right about the then-new season 4 characters (Charlotte&#039;s story was reportedly cut partially due to the writer&#039;s strike), but Darlton and co. have several times over the past year referred in a more general sense to cutting back stories because of the set end date. My point is not *whose* back story gets cut (nor that Darlton seem happy to leave at least some back stories behind), just that the emphasis since episode 8 or 9 of season 4 has moved *primarily* from characterization to plot (or, better said, resolution), as you yourself note. If you&#039;re happy with that, fine; I love LOST but feel that the show has been missing at least half of its heart and soul (if you count LOST as 1/2 story and mystery and 1/2 character development, as Lindelof has said repeatedly is the genius of the show) with the decreased emphasis. (And I speak as one who came to LOST drawn in by the mysteries but found that it was the focus on characterization that got me to stay.) It does seem, from everything Darlton has said, that there will be a great deal more characterization in season 6, however.</description>

When they were referring to sacrificing back stories because of fewer episodes they were talking about season 4 and not getting to the freighter folk&#039;s back story because of the writers strike. Not the fact that they agreed to 16 eps a year.

We have had 4 seasons of exposition on the characters. that time is over.</description>

		<description>&quot;i agree with zoriah that the character’s motivations in the incident felt forced. lost has always been about the characters, and having the characters betray their own ideals in order to expediently serve the plot felt like a bit of a betrayal.&quot;

I think this statement is so incredibly wrong, it is almost as if you hadn&#039;t watched five seasons of the show. ALL the characters followed exactley how they have always reacted to situation. I feel the writers would have been better off not giving the characters reasons for following the bomb at all because their motivations have been explicitly written over 5 seasons.

Jack...needs to fix everything
Kate...always does what Jack thinks is best. (on Island at least)
Sawyer...did it for Juliet and the fact that his Dharma life is over.
Juliet...is probably the most difficult to place her motivation but she new she was going to lose Sawyer and wanted to avoid the inevitable.
Sayid...Has a death wish

the worst line of the Incident was Jack saying &quot;I had her&quot;. That was unnecessary. Agreed.</description>

		<description>Yes Locke was used and yes Locke was an insecure man who wished to be a Messiah. To trusting, etc, al. but NO Jack was not right. This show has always been about dualities so to right off locke as dead and pathetic is a big mistake. The writers will not leave such an iconic character dead on the beach. We will see his return and he will play a VERY important part in the end game..</description>

		<description>No disagreement about the fine line, Hmmm, but the producers have admitted that reducing the number of episodes in the last three seasons necessitated sacrificing back stories. This last season, we saw a woeful lack of attention given to Charlotte, Daniel, and, most grievously of all, Sun and Jin. It also apparently led Darlton and company to nix the storylines of everyone who wasn&#039;t around in the first season. Fortunately, we apparently will get more characterization in season 6, and that&#039;s welcome.</description>

		<description>I would agree that they trained Polar Bears, using methods like getting their own food so they can turn the wheel.  It kind of makes sense because the environment that the wheel was located.  How Ben found out about the wheel being hidden in the Orchard behind the time-portal device is a mystery, but whats more is how he knew it ended up in Tunisia and that the nearby city with a hotel knew his alias.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not a Jack-hater, I actually love the way they wrote Jack and how Matthew Fox portraits him as for his character I can&#039;t tell at this point.  He thrives on accomplishments and will become a self-absorbed individual to make it work.  He doesn&#039;t listen to reason.  He always assumes he has the right answer.  He was appointed leader with no intention of becoming one, and then at some point absobed himself into that position.  He may not of had a drinking issue at the start, but lets face it like his Dad after he lost role as Chief of Surgery and developed a regret for his decisions, Jack developed a dependancy on alcohol and prescription drugs after he lost his role on the island and regretted his decision for making that radio call which ended up killing the passengers and leaving others stranded.  His character is so well written that we can&#039;t see him as his Dad or as a closed minded leader, but he is.  He has issues.  What was his reason for dropping the bomb again...to avoid the crash to save everyone? No it was so he doesn&#039;t have to go through the pain in losing Kate, if thats not self-absorbed nothing is.  Again I like Jack, but he is darker then people see him.</description>

		<description>Yeah I like Jack too and I think it&#039;s great that they&#039;ve made a character who can be good at saving people but at other times a self-absorbed buffoon.  It&#039;s the same way that Lock can be mystical at one point and a looser lame-ass at other points.  The writers and actors play with and against archetypes and their own character set-ups and it&#039;s great to watch even if you end up hating people you love or loving people you hate.</description>

		<description>Nice job.  The markings on Jack&#039;s face after the crash have never seemed to be important to me, but I always thought of Lock&#039;s cut as symbolizing some kind of enlightenment: having his &quot;eye opened&quot; through the crash.  It&#039;s like the opening shot of Buñuel and Dalí&#039;s &quot;Chien Andalou&quot;... his eye is opened to things beyond what we can normally see just as he sees &quot;the heart of the island&quot; and it&#039;s apparently not the black smoke monster but a white light to him.  

This show likes to play with religious imagery so I don&#039;t think that is is quite as simple as &quot;Lock is enlightened&quot; but I think that&#039;s what the cut is supposed to suggest and he certainly feels that he has been enlightened through much of the first season.</description>

		<description>If we&#039;re to believe the Lost Experience, the purpose of Dharma was to change the factors described by the equation that predicts the end of the world.  And turns out the Numbers are the coefficients that make up that equation.

So one of those factors was likely related to climate change.  Maybe determining under what conditions polar bears could adapt to a tropical climate was part of the Dharma research, or part of their mitigation strategy should the equation prove not to be amenable to change.</description>

		<description>I actually hope you&#039;re correct. I&#039;m still feeling let down that the Season 2 implications have never fully been dealt with.  Particularly with all the dread associated with activating the Swan station failsafe, the consequences of that action have not really been explored. Yes, it got Desmond unstuck in time, and I suppose it also was the means by which the freighter found the island. But now we know that Mrs. Hawking could find the island again via the Lamp Post station, and presumably Widmore could have eventually done the same. Seems like the costs of turning the failsafe key were very low associated with the costs of keeping the Swan protocol going every 108 minutes.  Hopefully this will finally be addressed in Season 6, but I got a bad feeling the minute I heard they had demolished all the Swan station interior sets as soon as the Season 2 finale completed filming.</description>

		<description>Years ago I saw the pilot and said to myself:  &quot;Oh God, people marooned on an island.  How original!  Where&#039;s Tom Hanks?&quot;  So, I never bothered to watch it again.  Years went by and I started hearing how great a show it was etc etc, but I really don&#039;t like jumping in the middle of a story.  I only want to follow a GOOD story from it&#039;s beginning.  

Luckily this year, HULU had all the episodes from season 1 on up available, so I started my journey.  60 something episodes later (yeah, I know.  I gotta get a life!) I&#039;m up to date and all I can say is WoW!  I really can&#039;t wait for this season to start.

Today I got the link to hear from TV Squad and had another pleasant surprise.  Especially this article.  Talk about having your life flash before your eyes!  

Great site.  Keep up the good work.  I&#039;m RSS&#039;s now and will be checking in often.</description>

		<description>Jack says:
&quot;I hate how you don’t even give Jack and Kate a chance. I think the scene where they meet is incredibly powerful, and is made even more so in the third season when Kate tells Jack the story again over the radio as she escapes with Sawyer. That moment, when Sawyer looks at her, is when he realizes Kate will always love Jack.&quot;

That&#039;s what you see, what you think.  Fishbiscuit sees and thinks another way so you HATE her point of view because it doesn&#039;t match yours?  

Where is it canon that Sawyer realizes Kate will always love Jack?  Again, that&#039;s what you see, what you think.  You are entitled, as is Fishbiscuit, to believe what you believe.  

Let&#039;s not forget that in S5 we found out that the whole &#039;count to five&#039; thing wasn&#039;t even Jack&#039;s; it was Christian&#039;s way of calming him down.

If you HATE what you read from Fishbiscuit, you can pick and choose which recaps, reviews or rewinds you follow.  Find one whose point of view suits you.  HATE is a strong word and Lost is a television show.</description>

		<description>I always got confused with &quot;deja vu&quot; in scenes in the season one. If you look closely to the people in the background you can see that they do that twice in the same manner. Did you ever paid attention to the people in the background? Where they are and what are they doing? Something like black cat walking the screen twice in &quot;Matrix&quot;. Scene with Walt and Locke (Backgamon scene) is one of the examples - see it for yourself:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_9Dzo8AfDA

There are more than twenty examples in the first 20 episodes of season 1, so they are not errors - they are put there intentionally. Why?</description>
