Getting “Lost”: 316 Review

February 19, 2009 StayTuned Staff

It’s a good time to be a Lost fan. We’re finally getting some answers this season — so many, in fact, that we don’t even mind that just as many new questions are being raised. Plus, coming off last night’s episode, which was undeniably awesome, we have “The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham” to look forward to next week. When we spoke to Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof before the season began, that’s the episode they pointed to as potentially being as mind-blowing “The Constant” was last season. But enough about next week, let’s talk about last night… johnnysweeptheleg’s […]

Getting Lost: “This Place is Death” Review

February 12, 2009 Channel Guide Contributor

Posted by johnnysweeptheleg and Mike The year is 1988. The Summer Olympics are being held in Seoul, South Korea. Super Mario Bros. 3 is released in Japan. And Jin is trying to figure out WTF he’s doing washed up on an island with a very pregnant and half-her-should-be-age Rousseau. So “This Place is Death” isn’t about Cleveland, after all, huh? The island is death. Ok, now we get the title. Man, we love this show! johnnysweeptheleg’s Lost in a Moment: Thanks to earlier seasons of Lost, we all know that Rousseau’s team is wiped out, leaving Rousseau alone and crazy, […]

Getting Lost: “The Little Prince” Review

February 5, 2009 Channel Guide Contributor

Posted by Mike and johnnysweeptheleg Thankfully, despite the episode being titled, “The Little Prince,” it had nothing to do with the child of Michael Jackson. After its fair dose of “Whoa!” moments (said with our best Keanu Reeves impersonation) in the first few episodes, the Lost writers took a step back and let us breathe a little this week. However, that’s not to say that we didn’t have any revelations this week. And there are always going to be more questions than answers. To the recap! johnnysweeptheleg’s Lost in a Moment: When I was a kid, it was all about […]

Getting Lost: “Jughead” Review

January 29, 2009 StayTuned Staff

Posted by Mike and johnnysweeptheleg We guessed from the episode title that the character of Jones would be significant. We were right — even if it was for all the wrong reasons. We were hoping his full name would be Forsythe P. Jones. Instead “Jughead” referred to a hydrogen bomb, while Jones turned out to be something far more sinister: Charles Widmore. Looking back, we probably should have seen it coming as soon as Miles sensed the fresh grave. Aside from being a typically creepy Lost moment, it was a signal that the name Jones belonged to a buried soldier […]

Getting Lost: “Jughead” Preview

January 28, 2009 StayTuned Staff

Last season, we took the episode title “The Other Woman” as a license to make Ray Parker Jr. references at every opportunity. Now the Lost writers have tempted us again, naming the third episode of Season 5 “Jughead.” As much as we love the idea of someone running around the island in a gray crown beanie (someone who shares a surname with Jughead, perhaps?), we’ll try to leave the Archies out of our recap this week. Here are the unanswered questions heading into this week’s episode, “Jughead”: What happens in 70 hours? What is Ms. Hawking’s relationship to the island? […]

Lost’s Emilie de Ravin Gets Animated

January 26, 2009 Lori Acken

Posted by ButtonKnows Dead or alive, Claire Littleton will be once more be found on Lost when the series returns for its sixth season – but in the meantime, actress Emilie de Ravin has kept herself busy, costarring with Cybill Shepherd in Lifetime Networks’ adaptation of Nora Roberts’ High Noon premiering March 21, and with Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and a veritable who’s who of Hollywood talent in the upcoming gangster film Public Enemies. But she’s most excited about playing a 12-year-old. With a beak. “I am so excited right now – I just booked my first animated job!” de Ravin exclaims. […]

Getting Lost: “Because You Left”/”The Lie” Review

January 22, 2009 StayTuned Staff

Posted by Mike and johnnysweeptheleg It’s hard to determine what we liked best about the return of Lost last night. Was it the return, albeit a brief one, of Neil “Frogurt”? Hurley buying an I Heart My Shih Tzu shirt off the rack at a gas station? Having to scramble though our brains to remember what we know about Ms. Hawking from her previous interactions with Desmond? Those were all great, but mostly we were just excited to have our weekly ritual back where we anticipate, watch and analyze a new episode, then repeat. The one thing we didn’t like […]

Returning 2009: Lost

January 21, 2009 Channel Guide Contributor

ABC, Wednesdays Beginning Jan. 21 The bad news for Lost fans is that only two more seasons of the show remain. The good news is that from here on out, the ratio of questions answered to questions raised should shift in a direction that will leave viewers less confused about what is really going on. “We’re not that far from the end of the show, so we’ve kind of turned the corner and we’re more significantly in answer mode this season,” says Lost showrunner Carlton Cuse. Considering that the Season 5 premiere, titled “Because You Left,” picks up immediately after […]

Getting Lost: “Because You Left”/”The Lie” Preview

January 20, 2009 StayTuned Staff

It’s hard to believe that ABC’s Lost has been away for nearly eight months — mostly because it feels like it’s been gone for much, much longer than that. The wait for new episodes ends with tomorrow’s two-hour Season 5 premiere (three hours, if you count an hourlong clip show preceding the new stuff.) We’re not sure exactly what to expect, other than the return of Michelle Rodriguez as Ana Lucia, but we’re giddy with anticipation. Here are the unanswered questions heading into this week’s two-part Season 5 premiere, “Because You Left”/”The Lie”: Jeremy Bentham is dead. Is John Locke? […]

Getting Lost: There’s No Place Like Home, Parts 2 and 3 Review

May 30, 2008 StayTuned Staff

Posted by Mike and johnnysweeptheleg If we had told you before last night’s Season 4 finale aired that Jeremy Bentham was dead, would you have cared? Probably not, unless you were a philosophy major in college. Now, John Locke would have been another question entirely. As it turns out, they’re the same guy — and they’re both dead. Or are they? As Lost fans, we’ve been conditioned to question just about everything we see. As such, we’ve been trying to think of reasons Locke might still be alive. Here’s what we’ve come up with:
