Lost #1.18: Numbers

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

I do not really have much to say about this episode, but I really really enjoyed it, and it feels a little like stuff might start being revealed now. Though I have said that before, and will not be surprised if it does not. I enjoyed Hurley’s back story about the lottery curse, [...]

Vradio #20: Theme Time Rip-Off Hour #2: Mothers

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

Bob Dylan’s second Theme Time Radio Hour was on the theme “Mothers” (it aired the week of Mother’s Day). Listening to it, and trying to find songs on my own for Rip-Off Hour, I could not help but notice that, though heartfelt, most songs about mothers are pretty cornball. I did my best [...]

Lost #1.17: In Translation

Monday, April 14th, 2008

This was a cool episode, with a lot happening. Not regarding where they are, getting off the island, or what the mysterious presence is that haunts them, of course, but still a lot went down.
The weirdest part was in the Jin flashback, which told his point-of-view to Sun’s story many episodes ago. While [...]

Lost #1.16: Outlaws

Saturday, April 12th, 2008

Sawyer is upset and all raging because a boar keeps attacking him and stealing his stuff. He tries to find it. He admits to killing a man to Kate. Then the flashback shows that the reason he is in Australia is to find a man who had something to do with the [...]

Lost #1.15: Homecoming

Saturday, April 12th, 2008

This was a very good episode, but now I’m not sure what they’re doing. Last episode, and into most of this one, I was stoked–finally, a story! Crazy evil Ethan is terrorizing the group of stranded people on the island. That’s a story I thought could carry the season out, the dealing [...]

Vradio #19: Boat

Friday, April 11th, 2008

As always, click the “Click To Play” for the music… I leave the songs up for 4-5 days maybe, and then I replace them with a new set of songs.
1. Tim Buckley “Buzzin’ Fly”
2. Cat Power “Lost Someone”
3. Goldfrapp “Crystalline Green”
4. Otis Redding “Day Tripper”
5. The Clientele “My Own Face Inside The Trees”
6. Radiohead “I [...]

Lost #1.14: Special

Monday, April 7th, 2008

Generally, this episode was not much, until the end. There was a bunch of scenes of people going off into the forest, which I would think they would know by now not to do, unless necessary. But they don’t. Also there was stuff about Charlie looking for and then reading Claire’s diary. [...]

1. TV On The Radio “Buffalo Girls”

Lost #1.13: Hearts And Minds

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

This episode finally had the backstory of Boone and Shannon. I think only Michael and his son, and Hurley, have flashbacks to be told. This one was alright, it made it clear what everyone’s been expecting for awhile–Boone’s in love with his sister, but they’re not really related by blood so it’s okay! [...]

Lost #1.12: Whatever The Case May Be

Saturday, April 5th, 2008

I think I liked this episode the best so far, it was entertaining and pretty dramatic. There were an awful lot of flipflops though.
For instance, it starts with Sawyer and Kate insulting each other, then they are playing in a romantic waterfall, then they find some corpses underwater. Then Kate sees a [...]
