Lost – ‘Cabin Fever’ – 4.11
I think I’m coming down with Cabin Fever.
It’s episodes like last night mythology heavy installment, Cabin Fever, that prove how intricately plotted and dramatically dense this show can be. This is why I watch the show. While getting answers can be rewarding, sometimes it’s more fun to keep tunneling down the rabbit’s hole. As long as you feel faith in the show’s creators to keep the narrative on track, it can be deliriously invigorating to be plopped in the midst of mystery with scant clues to go on and try to work your way back to some semblance of a clue. That’s why I got hooked on Twin Peaks two decades ago and why I spent the better part of the 90’s paging through The X-Files.
And it’s why I grooved on every little morsel and clue doled out in last night’s Locke-centric Cabin Fever... Continue reading »
Lost – ‘The Shape of Things to Come’ – 4.9
Is it just me or did that month fly? When Lost went on hiatus we were still under the threat of winter storm activity and now that I write this, the mercury has hit 76 degrees. One would think that the journey from sub-zero temps to pleasant Spring days would take longer, but that calendar page tore itself with reckless abandon. So, the good news is I didn’t miss the show very much because it didn’t seem like it was gone too long.
A lot of that might have to do with how AMAZING last night’s episode was. I’m going to spare y’all the suspense. This one earns 5 Mooninites (a rarity on these pages) and I’m tempted to toss in a few Koopas and an Ebert head for good measure. It was that good.
Anyway, we have a LOT to chew on so without further adieu, on with the show.

I’m So Lost – Week 1
And so begins this new series, I’m SOOOOOOOO Lost, dedicated to ticking off the big mysteries behind our favorite show. Ya’ really gotta’ hand the Internet its props. Do you think Alf garnered such fanboy enthusiasm back in the day?
“So, uhhhh, who do you think ate the cat? Me, I say it’s either Gordon Chumway or… Willie!!!”
Anyway, as I mentioned in my introductory post, this series will run for the next four Fridays (this one included) – basically serving as a little appetizer before the series resumes proper for its final run through May sweeps on April 24th. Over the course of the next four weeks, I’ll offer up three major themes per week and list out (in my typical bullet-point fashion) what we know and what remains unresolved regarding these overarching elements to the central mystery of Lost.
I implore y’all, especially those w... Continue reading »
