OK, I’m back with the Lost! 2.3 is called “Orientation,” so I guess I picked a good one to start up again on. And there were new characters!
The last episode ended with Jin, Sawyer, and Michael being chased by Others. Well, in this one, they were caught by Shirtless Other With A [...]

A new recurring theme begins here: single artist mixes. The inspiration for this, the first one, is that this week is Bob Dylan’s birthday. I’ll get more obscure in later artist mixes; I want to introduce everyone to the joyous Danger Mouse before the Beck/DM album drops, for example. But for now, [...]

While this wasn’t the most dramatic episode, it led to a lot of questions. I am very interested in what is going on in the Hatch, and I did enjoy the Back To The Future 2-style storytelling–showing the story behind the story shown in the last episode. After Kate dropped down there, Locke [...]

Season 2 opened with shots of a shirtless guy waking up, exercising and playing music on a record player, but never seeing his face. At first, I was like, did I click on the right show title on ABC’s website? But then I realized he was in the Underground Hatch! Maybe it’s [...]
