Another miss, what are you guys talking about? I understand that Sawyer must have said something, but what?

I liked this episode, good to have Lost back again.

There's never a week that we don't learn *something* about the island, so I'm content to let that unfold at the current pace, especially with recent announcements that the writers definitley have a specific ending point for the series in mind.

I don't think we learned anything about the island this week. IRC the only thing we may have learned about the island is that there are two islands.

I believe Edmund Burke was a real life philosopher.

Sawyer stated to the guard that he fell for the same trick that Han and Luke pulled when trying to rescue Princess Leah in the first Star Wars

Which we already knew from Sawyer's episode earlier in the season.

I think everyone saw that coming BUT Ed. :heh:

I was not surprised he was hit by the bus and it was telegraphed in dialogue, Ed’s behavior and his position on the street. I just did not see the bus until it ran him over. And honestly, I think the bus backing over him was just unnecessary.

Kidding aside, how often have people been hit by busses in this show? Somehow it felt like a call back to some other incident of someone getting hit by a bus, and in this show to boot. But for the life of me, I can’t remember any other incidents.
 

The wookiee line was great, but the absolute best Sawyer moment on last night's episode was when he was giving his would-be executioner the beating, and had him down enough that he and Kate could easily have run off, but he decided to hang around long enough to bash the guy's face into the electrified "food button" in his cage - not once, but several times.

Go Sawyer!

I agree. While I'm not a Sawyer fan overall, I'm glad someone was trying to dish out some hurt on the others. Lord knows they deserve it.
 


I wasn't thrilled with the episode, but there were a few redeeming things.

Sawyer and Kate kicking some butt was definitely the main thing that saved this episode, I think. Not only could the show use a little more action (or really, movement) but there was definitely an emotional payoff with it. Not only just with regards to the first six episodes, but to the whole Others thing in the first place.

Also, bad-ass colder Jack is a lot better than leader Jack.

Juliet's story was boring, I couldn't care any less about her.

On a related note, not enough emphasis on the main cast, who are the ones that are cared about - not Ben or Juliet or Tom or any other random person.

All that said, I definitely like the direction the third season has taken so far. They need to keep up the momentum. Actually, I think that the decision to hold off the show for so long was actually a mistake, as it sapped any momentum the first six episodes built up.
