LOST sixth and final season

[Frank MetaMusil]

So much for a nonstop season. LOST's sixth season might be losing a little bit of momentum as it approaches the show's final batch of episodes. Episode fourteen of the season will not air on April 27 as previously expected. Instead, it will be pushed back a week and will air on May 4, two weeks after episode thirteen, which will air April 20. So what will be airing in that timeslot on April 27? No, it's not some major event like the Olympics or a Presidential address. They'll simply be replaying episode nine of the season, "Ab Aeterno." I mean, sure, it's a good episode, but do we really want to see that instead of a new episode? Of course not. Like Charlie (pictured right), we'll be jonesing for a fix before those two weeks are up.
What this means for the last few episodes of LOST will actually be a series first, though. Episode 6.15 will air on May 11, Episode 6.16 will air May 18, and the series finale, episodes 6.17/6.18, will air on May 23, the Sunday following episode 6.16. This will be the first time we've had two episodes of the series aired within one week. Ironically, the episode which will have the most suspense attached to it will also have the shortest wait time of any episode.
It's not the first time LOST has gone on hiatus midseason. It was a common occurrence during the first and second seasons. However the most excruciating wait came in season three, after which featured a painful break only six episodes into the season. I suppose we can be thankful that situation has been avoided since then, but don't we have shorter seasons so we won't have as many breaks?
I suppose it doesn't matter that much, but the break will seem very unnatural as the series ramps up its final five hours. Whatever the case may be, I'm excited to see how these last few episodes play out. Who knows? Perhaps this scheduling change will make the cliffhanger at the end of 6.13 much more meaningful.

So is Desmond the next Jacob?

[CaptainCrunch]

There will probably be no next Jacob.

I have to agree. I think Desmond is up to something that takes down Smokie making Jacob uneccesary.

I think it goes back to Desmonds immunity to electromagnetism and Widmore looking for additional pockets of electromagnetic energy. I also think him running over John Locke might weaken the Lockemonster or at the least maybe if John Locke in the AR dies smokey can't use his body anymore.

Just my 2 cents though.

I think the visuals of Locke laying in the parking lot was almost identical to Locke laying on the beach after the plane crash. Too similar for it to be a coincidence. So, I'm thinking alternate reality Locke will start walking. What this means...I don't know.

Just like how Jack's ex-wife wasn't supposed to walk again, but he fixed her.

Interesting (there isn't really a thinking smilie, so I'm using that)

Great episode, looks like the show is picking up steam again.

So...

The last recruit - Jack for MiB's group or Claire for Sawyer's group?

Desmond - dead/alive? Has to be alive IMO

Widmore - the deal is off, why? Sawyer didn't technically brought MiB to him, but told Zoe where he was so they could bomb him

[Flames0910]

such cruelty showing the reunion of jin and sun with chloe saying 'turn off the defenses'.

then the camera cuts to both of them running towards each other, ultra-deathpost with its line of death in the middle.

and...

...

they're fine.

[CaptainCrunch]

When Wideman's men, and lady told our hero's to get on their knee's, my first thought was.

"Oh come on they haven't been on the Island for that long . . . oh wait they mean to kill them"

[Pagal4321]

Where was Sayid when the bombs hit FakeLocke and crew?

What I want to know is why every character has to re-chamber their gun every time they move it?

.. so, you're watching a show where not only is there time travel, but an island that can literally physically move (and "skip" thrpugh time) ... there is a monster that is made of smoke but can look like several dead people ... not one but two mediums who can speak with dead people ... and you're wondering why they have to re-chamber their guns?

I'm with Nik- it drives me absolutely crazy. Like distracting crazy.

I'm wondering about the flash sideways. How can it be sidways when Claire is pregnant still? It's more like a flashbackwards

It's an alternate timeline, just showing a few years earlier. Flashed backsides, I suppose...you could call them "moons" for short.

Is this show worth watching from the beginning?
