    It appears that Season 6 will have some regulars back.
    Claire. Charlie. And now ... Shannon!

    I *really* don't like where all this is heading.

    "First five seasons didn't really count, re-do!"

    I have no idea what they're going to do, but I don't think it's going to be that, rick. It just doesn't seem like something Lost would do. Maybe they'll get transported to 2007, maybe they'll go back with memories of what happened and have to choose to go back. Who knows? But the first five seasons will be consequential.

    If not, well fuck.

    If the characters touched by Jacob remember their past lives, then it does not constitute a real "re-do," but a chance at redemption ... which has been one of the show's overriding themes.

    I don't think we'll be disappointed at all. Cuse, Lindelof and Co. have kept us begging for more on a weekly basis. They'll make it right. Claire's been confirmed to come back for a while and with all of the mystery surrounding that character and Christian Shephard, we're going to get answers.

    I'm really interested to see how Desmond ties into the final season. From Daniel's "you're uniquely and miraculously special" message to his vision of Charlie telling Claire and Aaron to get on the chopper to go home, there's a ton of mystery.

    The only way I see Maggie Grace (Shannon!) coming back is in flashbacks or "ghost" form. I think it was pretty obvious she was killed. Lost doesn't resurrect people. OK, I take that back. If Maggie Grace comes back, it'll be Shannon's body (hell yes) but someone else inside (Man in Black?). It won't make sense if it's the Shannon character - "dead is dead," remember?

    To satiate my LOST appetite, I've started watching the series from Season 1. I'm on episode 7. What a great, great show.

    I just finished watching the first season and it was unbelievable again. I forgot the whole scene where Walt gave Shannon the dog so the dog could "take care of her." Just like it "took care of him."

    Magic - What do you mean by that? Or what do you think "take care of" means?

    Maybe I'm looking too much into it, but I think there's more to Vincent than just being a yellow lab.

    Perhaps it's just the mystique of the show, but it always seems Vincent shows up at strange times.

    I thought it was funny reading on some message boards about the whereabouts of Vincent during all of these time skips. The talk was right up there with Rose and Bernard. Loved when all three of them showed up in the season five finale.

    Personally, I'd consider that a pretty cheap plot device.

    Pretty much every series will have some fans who are disappointed with each chapter. I have a feeling I'm going to be in the "disappointed" faction for season 6. C'est la vie.

    Any vision of Maggie Grace would be welcomed very much by these eyes.

    With but one season to go, I feel a twinge of sadness knowing that.

    My favorite television show... ever.

    Best part was Rose and Bernard, they were so upset that the others found them. You could really feel the fact that they were happy to be away from all the others and just on their own to be happy.
    I think the two of them are the two people they found in the caves, I think they retreated to the caves after Sawyer and Co. came through.

    I am missing this show to an addictive level. Have watched my tapes of the season's final three episodes three times. Just downloaded the Geronimo Jackson track "Dharma Lady" from iTunes.

    I'm all theoried out right now, but greatly enjoyed Jensen's latest. The wife is gloating a bit because of her theory that babies were dying because Jacob has been seeking a vessel for his return. Now that Jacob, and his Adversary, are seeking vessels, she says she was "plausibly right."

    Local TV had the one last night where Ben Henry Gale draws a map to his balloon for Ana Lucia. Then he mentions the "trust issues" Jack and Locke have. He then ends the episode eating cereal, noting that if he were a bad guy, he would be leading their friends into a trap.

    "Good thing I'm not one of them! You guys got any milk?"

    Manipulative bastard. Awesome.

    Easily one of my favorite moments from the show.
