#2 Thought bringing back that whip character Juliette was lame just to give Sawyer a reason to be mad for a while. Seems useless to give the characters such flimsy "closure".
#3 Pretty much already board with the #2 storyline...except for how Jack's neck got cut and what the heck happening with Christian Shepherd's body? Loved seeing the island underwater...very, very cool.
#4 Am I nuts in thinking there is NO WAY they don't somehow dovetail the two story lines by the end of the season? (which could be major shark jumpage). The only way I can see the 2 story line scenario working out is if they actually let it ride...and for an entire season show us what their lives would have been like if 815 never goes down. While trite on a global scale, it could interesting. (I just doubt thats what they're doing)
#5 It was bittersweet finding out fake Locke is smoky...not sure they revealed it in the coolest way.
#6 Not entirely pumped about the introduction of some new Others...feels like reaching for story.
#7 I love Richard and Ben.
#8 When Sayid woke up did everyone else join me is saying, "Hello Jacob"?

1. I am working on the assumption that perhaps Esau's body is dead and he only lives as a smoke monster or a copy of someone else but can't leave the island since his death. Perhaps Jacob hadn't "died" yet so he could leave the island at will? Last night I felt like they were setting it up to be a Locke/Jack replacing Jacob/Esau. I wish they would give his name up already.
2. I liked it. It made for good drama.
3. gagree. surely if they continue this it will get better.
4. It has to have a purpose, I think, to tell the story.
5. I don't know how it could have been cooler... maybe showing him transform? I didn't have a problem with it.
6. But they aren't new. They are the ones that took the children from the tail section, right? Cindy is with them, she was never an other was she? Well she was on the other island when Jack/Kate/Sawyer were in captivity.... they need to explain that group better. I assumed this was Richards group, not THE Others.
7. I really would like to know Richards story. Is he a 3rd wheel to Jacob/Esau?
8. of course
