The X-Files #1.9: Space

Sunday, September 28th, 2008

Holy cow this was awfulness. I don’t even know where to begin. The story was cool enough–an older astronaut was haunted by a ghost he saw while on a space mission, and now he is possessed by the ghost. And I guess Chris Carter was inspired by that old Face On Mars [...]

moving to Las Vegas

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

I’m moving to Las Vegas for a month tomorrow, to help out on the Obama campaign there (NV is a swing state, and needs the help). So updates here may be scarce, esp. with the music, until after the election. These shows and music are my hobbies and I’ll try to figure [...]

Lost #3.22-3.23: Through The Looking Glass Pt. 1 & 2

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

That was about the greatest possible season ending ever.
Charlie has swim down to the Underwater Hatch, to turn of the radio jammer, and does so. He dies when Mikhail The Cyclops comes back to life for the 2nd time and sets off a grenade. Right before this happened, Charlie reached Penny [...]

Lost #3.21: Greatest Hits

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

This was pretty much just a build-up to the finale episode. Desmond tells Charlie he’s going to die, but allowing Claire and her baby to get on a helicoptor and be rescued. So Charlie swims down to an underwater hatch, in order to flip a switch so that a radio signal can be [...]

Lost #3.20: The Man Behind The Curtain

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

Ah ooh Ben shot Locke! Can he be dead? Locke and Ben have some serious mindgames going on, and Locke wasn’t buying Ben’s. They met each other’s match! So Ben shot him, after taking him to see Jacob. Craziness.
Also they showed Ben’s back story. He was brought to the [...]

Lost #3.19: The Brig

Friday, September 19th, 2008

This was a pretty good episode. There was no real flashback, just showing what Locke had been up to since he stayed behind with The Others. Ben had tried to get Locke to kill his father, though there was still no real explanation about how his father got there. The whole thing [...]

Lost #3.18: D.O.C.

Wednesday, September 17th, 2008

D.O.C. = date of conception = if Sun conceived before coming to The Island, she lives, but with the knowledge the baby isn’t Jin’s = if Sun conceived on The Island, the baby is Jin’s, but she will die in two months
That’s the big drama, and it turns out the baby is Jin’s, and Sun [...]

Lost #3.17: Catch-22

Wednesday, September 17th, 2008

Desmond has more time flashes, which he suspects leads to him finding his girlfriend, Penny (or her finding them I guess). But the flashes include Charlie dying. In the end, he prevents Charlie from dying again… and thus, it’s not Penny they find. That was the catch-22, either let Charlie die or [...]

Lost #3.16: One Of Us

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

Wow, this was probably one of the best episodes so far for answering things! Answers! Obviously this leads to some more questions and drama, but this whole show was quite expository.
They show how Juliet came to The Island, and (more or less) why. She is running experiments, trying to figure out why [...]

Lost #3.15: Left Behind

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

OK bear with me as I try to cram the rest of season 3 here over the next week.
After Locke blew up the submarine, stranding everyone on The Island, The Others took them all prisoner again. But then a cannister of gas is thrown in Kate’s room, she passes out right after seeing them [...]
