We have to go back! (Lost 2009 season)

But the unfolding on the screen, the show itself, is the whole point, isn't it? Whenever I get accidentally spoiled on something in this show or another, the whole time I'm watching the show I'm thinking, "Damn, I wish I didn't know this guy is about to die." Takes all the drama out of it for me.

But I get what you're saying. And I'd bet journalists are even more prone to not being able to stand knowing there's information they don't have.

I'd be just as happy reading the plot synopsis of Season 6 on lostpedia. Actually, last night, I started to watch the Star Trek movie online and decided I was too tired and just went to themoviespoiler.com so it wouldn't bug me not to finish it.

I actually read the complete plot of last week's episode on Wednesday morning, and I still enjoyed the episode. But then, I've always been a person who could read the same book 15 times and not be bored.

The Ace of Cakes episode that features Lost was pretty funny.
It was hilarious to see Sawyer munch down on a DHARMA can of beer that was actually a cake.

Agree 100%.

I find myself so close to visiting spoiler sites and at times I have only to quickly click the red X.

Funny how I write the above post then hours later head to a spoiler site. Notice I said "at times" I click the red X.

Here's a story from the NY Post with quotes from Lindelof and Cuse about the finale and season six. It contains some spoilers (minimal stuff that we pretty much know or can deduce), but is more of a general discussion about the direction of the finale and season six.

MILD SPOILER(?) FROM ABOVE ARTICLE






















Regardless of what Jack and crew decide, next season will find the show's core characters all back on the island resolving why they landed on the island in the first place.
(snip)
"Season six will feel a lot like season one," says Lindelof. "The focus comes back to the characters with whom we began. We've been winnowing away everyone else who came along. The Tailies are gone, only Miles [Ken Leung] is left of the Freighter Folk and only Juliet [Elizabeth Mitchell] is left of The Others. We're getting down to the end now."

Looks like Charlie will be back? Can't wait for the inevitable Patchy/Charlie throwdown. I know someone on the board suggested a theory that season six will essentially be season one, only now with appropriate differences. Might that be right on the mark?

I've thought about it. I think that'd be fascinating but incredibly challenging from a storytellers' point of view, and I just don't know if they have the guts to try it.

If this is going to be another "game changer", I wonder what it will be? The bomb going off, by itself, isn't enough. the Island exploding would be. So would 815 safely landing in L.A.

I don't know why, but I think that they are going to flash to the original crash on the Island.

 

[ArnoldBabar]

They're definitely going to merge the timelines of the two groups, so maybe that's what happens tonight.

 

[Webster]

I assume that someone buys it in the finale -- I think Sawyer. Also, I assume that we learn what/who is in the box and where Rose and Bernard are.

And more about the four-toed statue, Jacob and Alpert.

Did you turn the frozen donkey wheel and transport forward two days?
