Lost: Season Premier. Tonight

My wife and I also thought there was more comercials, but we both liked the episode though.

As for the one punch thing, I seem to recall Ethan at least being really manically strong and hard to take down. It's easy to forget now that the Others are talkin', but they may still have that Popeye-Spinach thing going...

It also confirms what I specifically said for the past two seasons - for all the Lostaways know thanks to their lack of exploring, there could be a resort on the other side of the island (and there was a freaking village, with infrastructure [sidewalks, etc], power, and amenities).

I'm not so sure that the Others' little commune is on the Lostaways' island...I get the feeling that it's one island away. When the Others came out to witness the crash of Oceanic 815, it looked like it went down off in the distance. Also, remember where Jack, Kate, and Sawyer were last seen in season 2's finale--on a pier. Maybe that was just so Michael and Walt could drive away in their boat...or maybe the Others and their captives had a little boat trip of their own to make. My theory also would explain why the Others destroyed the raft when they abducted Walt even though there was no way the Losties could've used it to pursue them.

Also, if the Others have released the polar bears from captivity, it would make sense to put them somewhere else where they won't be a threat to attack them every time they leave their compound.

I'm getting the feeling that the Others have left the Hanso Foundation's goals and practices in the rearview mirror and now have their own agenda and ways of doing things.

Heh, maybe I'm over-analyzing, but Henry Gale's hearing was awfully good when they had him locked up in the hatch's armory. In contrast, when Ana Lucia was in there interviewing Henry and Jack tried to listen in, he said something like "I can't hear a thing in there."

Maybe the Others are a bit superhuman.

One down and 5 to go before I drop the show entirely. They had better work hard the next 5 episodes for me to start caring again.

I'm curious, is there a particular thing about the show's progress that's irking you?

I would guess, just how irrational the Lostaways are being. Okay, here you are in the place where the answers are, you are not being hurt really, people are being nice other than holding you, you can sit back and learn. You don't have to do a thing and just listen and wait but what happens? Jack is off his rocker, Sawyer runs amock and Kate does what?

While this seems to be in their character, you have to wonder IF they are not being treated for something.

And let us look at Kate, did I miss something? What happened between Henry and her and the time she was placed in the cage?

 

[Ambrus]

You, sir, win this thread in my eyes.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Exactly.

Yay! I won the thread!

Tra-la-la-la-la!

You'll all have to excuse my exuberance; I don't often win threads and unfortunately prancing about and congratulating oneself is about the only reward involved AFAIK.

I don't see that as irrational at all. Jack, Kate, and Sawyer all know that the Others are lying, child-abducting murderers. Why would Jack expect truth and kindess from them? Sitting back and doing nothing as a captive of lying, child-abducting murderers would be alot more irrational here.

No they are on the same island. When Benry ( for you Celt ) sent Goodwin and Ethan out to the crash sites they mentioned something about getting there in an hour. Also remember when Anna Lucia called out Goodwin she stated that he came out of the jungle dry
