Re-Watching LOST: Season 4 - The Other Woman

We were only able to watch one episode last night as well. *frowny face* It happened to be a very Juliet-heavy episode too.

I still don't like her. Why? Because she's an "Other". Why would guys fawn over her? Is it because she's too trusting but she's tough enough to be driven to do whatever it takes to see her sister again? Does Ben like her because she's "fresh meat" on the island? I know Harper said, "You look just like her" but didn't elaborate at all as to who Juliet looks just like. Is it her doe eyes? Whatever it is, there's something about that weird side smile thing that makes me uncomfortable. I mean, Locke's crazy dictatorship of the barracks isn't half as creepy as Juliet. But it is disappointing.

Lowlights:

• Of course Juliet has an affair with Goodwin (Harper's husband) and Ben knows this and sends Goodwin to the slaughter as a fake castaway to the tail-end folks. All those "Tail-End" mo-fos weren't on the magical list.
• Of course Ben would make a ridiculous statement concerning the ownership of Juliet: "You're mine!"
• Jack and Juliet. Barf-o-rama.
• Pretty much the whole episode. Sorry. It just didn't do a thing for me.

Highlights: (yes, there were some)

• Girlfight! (between Juliet and equally annoying Charlotte)
• Daniel Faraday saves the day?

Up next: Ji Yeon. Like I said before, I already know who that is because I saw the series finale. Sooooo...all the mystery is gone there. When will the mystery come back? Hopefully with Michael (!) during Meet Kevin Johnson. We'll see.

Namaste,

Re-Watching LOST: If anything goes wrong...

ZOMG! I know now what it means!
It's all coming together! Gaaaahhhhhh!!!

Just kidding. It's still the same - with the addition of knowing what it means.
It's not Avatar's equivalent of "I see you". But it could be. Either way, Desmond and Penny are so cute they make me barf in the way Charlie and Claire never could. (Charlie and Claire just made me cry a lot)
So...the great big mystery of "_________ is my constant" is solved. Onto the bigger and weirder mysteries Lost holds for me.

Next up: The Other Woman. Oh yay, it's Juliet-heavy episode. Joy...
Unfortunately we only had time for one episode last night instead of our usual 2 (or sometimes 3). Hopefully today we'll get through The Other Woman and Ji Yeon (I already know who Ji Yeon is because I watch the series finale!)

I have to admit that sometimes knowing the ending is fun and sometimes it's not. It's fun in certain instances because I'm able to guess certain things and it does close up some holes. It's not fun because I'm not in deep, deep suspense over certain things like my old man is. But don't get me wrong - I am most certainly enjoying watching the show from start to finish in a few months. That part is awesome!!

PS - Just found out that Elizabeth Mitchell (aka Juliet Burke), Matthew Fox, Jack Bender (for Outstanding Directing), Outstanding Art Direction, Music, MOTHERFUCKING Terry O'Quinn for Outstanding Supporting Actor (!!!), Outstanding Drama, Special Class Programs: "ABC's LOST Presents: Mysteries of the Universe - the Dharma Initiative", Sound Editing, Writing, Editing...the list goes on (I'm sure). Congrats LOST Team!

Re-Watching LOST: Season 4

We started season 4 last night and according to the season cheat sheet at Lostpedia, this season is only 14 episodes long. Lame and awesome at the same time.
Lame because it's so short and awesome because it's so short. We'll be able to get through it in a faster amount of time and get to season 5! Why season 5? Because I accidentally read a spoiler (!!!!) concerning the name Jeremy Bentham - which was the name on the newspaper clipping LumberJack was carrying around with him in the final episode of season 3 in a flash forward. Where does the link to the name Jeremy Bentham take you? Oh that's right...to LOCKE'S page! Yeah, that makes a lot of sense seeing as though I don't know who he is yet!!!!
Oh well. I didn't read too far about Locke going under that name except...well...I guess I'll find out later.
We made it to Eggtown (episode 4) and there are a lot of crazy flash forwards happening.

Lowlights:

• The guy who plays Daniel Faraday (Jeremy Davies) always seems to play that "kooky" character. I have mixed feelings about him...
• I still don't trust Jack. Sorry, I just don't.
• SAYID'S fingernails!!!! In the flash forward during The Economist, Sayid straightened out his curly locks (meeeowww!!!), wore something other than his trademark wife beater, was still a killing machine and kept saying he was one of the Oceanic 6. But what was one the of the main things he didn't do? Oh, that's right...cut his fucking nails! Aaaaaanyways....
• Miles is annoying as FUCK but he's a ghostbuster (perhaps?)
• Kate and Aaron in the flash forwards. WTF???? BABY STEALER!

Highlights:

• This isn't really a highlight but it was definitely moving: When Hugo told Claire about Charlie and when he made it a point to remind everyone that Charlie died so they could get some kind of communication off the island.
• Daniel Faraday being kooky
  
• Miles is a ghostbuster!
• The team from the freighter is on the hunt for Ben (getting closer to some answers!!)
• LANCE REDDICK!!!! (Also known as Philip Broyles from my other favourite show, Fringe)
• Charlie slapping Hugo at the mental hospital (this was kind of adorbs)
  

And that's about it. It's still early enough in the season to not really have a lot of highs/lows. There are many questions (of course) and I'm eagerly awaiting for The Constant (which I'm pretty sure we'll watch tonight because it's episode 5). I accidentally saw a spoiler photo from this episode and I've been hearing people say "I'm your constant" or "You're my constant" since this season aired. I'm guessing it's the equivalent to Avatar's "I see you", I suppose. Either way, it's a fucking catch phrase and I want to know why.




EDIT: Apparently, the whole Constant thing involves Desmond (and Penny probably)


Until next time...
