Obligatory Wednesday Lost Post

I don't know if I need to say this, but just for the record: I don't watch Lost previews so please don't mention anything that happens in them. It's the last season and I want my viewing experience to be ~pure.


I'M SO CONFUSED. LOLLL, just like always.

Are we dealing with a whole new bunch of Others? I thought that Richard at one point sent the Original Others to the Temple - which would explain Cindy and kids being there; we saw them with the Others before, right? - but then we never saw Japanese Guy and John Lennon with them, so I don't know. Are they related to the original Others or not? Also, I just looked them up on Lostpedia and apparently the guy who looks like John Lennon is actually named Lennon. SUBTLE, SHOW.

Locke is the smoke monster? BEST EVER. I'm so, so glad we're finally getting more on Smokey. I have no theories, but I can't wait to see where this goes. Where's Smokey's home??

The parallel timeline was awesome, and if this has replaced the flashbacks/flashforwards I'll be SO HAPPY. It was so cool to see everyone again, Boone and Claire and Charlie and Arzt and Frogurt, although the absence of certain characters (Shannon, Michael, Walt) was glaringly obvious. And, Desmond! What was he doing on the plane? Why did he disappear? SO MANY QUESTIONS. Also, seeing Kate escape was brilliant. I know she's a hugely unpopular character but whatever, I've always liked her. I'm really curious as to whether the timelines will converge or stay separate or what. Probably Christian's body has something to do with that?

I wasn't remotely surprised that Juliet died, on account of Elizabeth Mitchell being on V now, but I got surprisingly choked up when Sawyer carried her body out of the hatch. :( Mostly I'm just upset that Lost has killed off yet another female character when they're already in such short supply.

Glad that Sayid lived, though! Mostly because he's the only person on that damn island with any common sense. Although I've seen speculation that he's Jacob reincarnated, which would be cool.

Now that Emilie de Ravin's back, are we going to finally find out what happened to Claire on the island??
