LOST is back!
GoldBond | 6:29 PM on 01.31.2008 31 comments


Will anyone else be watching the return of Lost tonight? For those of you who aren't into Lost, the season finale was EASILY the best summer movie of 2007. It was that good. If you have any interest in getting in on the best show on TV right now, Netflix the first season. I've shown just the pilot episode to friends and they were hooked.

The only thing I'm looking forward to more is for Heroes to start up again, but who knows when that will be.
GoldBond's Destructoid Blog
Hopefully never. After watching last season's finale where they rip off Ninja Turtles III, I was done. I can't believe I made it that long though.

I have no idea what covah's talking about.
I loved the third season, its the whole reason that I watch the show. I'm skipping my class to watch it tonight.

I lost Lost last year at the end of Season 2. The letter today is L!

DON'T try and convince me to give it another chance, I've been offered drugs and money and women to finish it, but I'm not going back! Just like I'm not going back to WoW.

Once you realize the soup has kittens in it, the next sip just isn't as good.

So what does that make the monster, airline food?
Skribble's Destructoid Blog
If i wanted hundreds of plot holes, no resolutions, generically bland characters and crappy directing I'd go watch .... well I guess I'd go watch Lost.
covah's Destructoid Blog
@Skribble: THANK YOU

Just look it this way, picture a way they could wrap the series up when it finally ends, make up any ending you could, it won't matter cus whatever you think of will be underwhelming and unsatisfying.
MaxVest's Destructoid Blog
I'll give it a shot. That last few episodes of season 3 seemed like they were back to the old form again.
shipero's Destructoid Blog
@MaxVest

Yeah, the last few episodes of season 3 almost made up for the rest the season.

The clip who just played the part from "the man behind the curtain" I forgot how creepy that was.

@Skribble

If you want shit character development, awful acting, plot threads that are quickly and lazily tied up, you can watch Heroes.

Lost doesn't have plot holes, it has unanswered questions. It actually makes you think (I know, it's probably not your favorite thing to do during TV time). The producers have already said that everything in the show is supposed to be plausible, even the monster. It limits your judgments. If you come up with a theory to answer a question, you're left with more questions. That's why it's the most rewarding show on TV. I mean, how many other shows make you take quantum physics into speculation?

I have my DVR set.

I'm going out today with buds, but I'm not missing this.
Samit Sarkar's Destructoid Blog
Shipero and MaxVest have it right. Season 3 started off crappy, and even after the show returned from hiatus, I thought that it had lost its way (pun intended). But nearly all the episodes after the terrible one about how Jack got his tattoo were spectacular, especially the season finale.
JDUB X's Destructoid Blog
OMFG YES!

Biggest night of the F'ING year!

Also LAWL at the video!
GoldBond's Destructoid Blog
Great premiere! 7 more episodes left of this pseudo-season.
DanGale's Destructoid Blog
@Goldbond

Whereas I can't argue with your Heroes point in regard to the second season, I must disagree on the first. The second season was easily one of the worst series I've ever seen. I almost wish it had never happened. I blame the writers strike mainly, so I hope season three goes back to the original show.
Scape's Destructoid Blog
It was an awesome episode.
Kryptinite's Destructoid Blog
The episode was awesome and I'm still hooked!

@DanGale

Heroes was off to a great start, specifically the first six episodes. And the number "six" is quite prevalent in its quality as most shows are given a six episode run to see if it is worth hanging on to. After the show was picked up, you'll notice a dip in quality as the show went on.

It's almost as if the writers didn't have a plan for any of these characters. Between Boring Indian and Fat Cop, none of these characters have a particularly interesting story arc.

And don't blame the writer's strike. While these episodes were in the pre-production phase, the certainty of a strike was still up in the air. Don't blame the strike, blame the writers.

Seriously, blame them. Ever read "Days of Future Past?" Heroes blatantly rips off of it in the future episode. And if you at all feel spoiled while watching the "Watchmen" adaptation that's currently in production, blame Heroes. It lifts from that graphic novel big time. Sure, Tim Kring says he has never read comics, but that doesn't mean his writers never did.

If there's one thing we can agree on, it's that Heroes introduced the world to the remarkable, barely-legal piece of ass, Hayden Panettiere.

The man in the cabin that Hurley sees (aka Jacob) is definitely Christian! He's wearing the suit he wore in his casket, the same one he was wearing when he appeared to Jack (down to the white shoes).

@Goldbond

Well there's no question Heroes takes "inspiration" from a lot of sources, I would say that the first season was top notch. I suppose it's all relative but I really enjoyed the first season. Well, apart from any scene with Niki. For some reason I really hated her.

I can see your point with the second season, and not to blame it all on the writers strike, and Tim Kring said himself they made mistakes. But I'll never get over watching Claire have a classic teenage strop about boyfriends and then the following trailer going on about her "finally facing her destiny". The last few episodes of the second season were incredibly rushed. With a longer run they could have clawed back some stability to the second season, but the Writer's Strike really botched up that plan.

In an ideal world they would just put a press release saying, "Hey, we're gonna forget about the second season and instead the third season will retcon it all and we'll pick up right after season one."

Oh, and on topic. I really enjoed Lost. Not gonna spoil it for anyone but you know what to expect. Few answers, more questions.

About your spoiler. I think you're right. It's very dark but I paused the frame and the outline is uncanny.
