Bullshit.

To my dismay, the seams of Lost's plot are starting to show themselves more and more.

How about the fact that damn near anyone who gets introduced late in the game automatically gets kicked off or you never hear about them again? Who's left from the other side of the island? Bernard, but he and the wife must be off making up for lost time in some remote cave somewhere.



Everyone else has died now, and i'm beyond annoyed with a pointless killing off of Echo. What was the point of all this drawn out "he's dead, no he's alive, no he's dead" bullshit with the hatch blowing, then the Polar Bears and the tripped out Amenita (or whatever), sweatlodge vision of Boon seeming to indicate the Echo was pivotal to getting back Locke's friends? Did the writers forget about all those avenues they had opened up when deciding abruptly to kill dude off?

It's crap. There are all these politics in the show, behind the scenes, where people get kicked off and they almost always are killed off in the plot. Ana Lucia, the psycho, mental ward chick, they got DUI's whilst on set and were written out of the plot.

i at least have to hand it to the writers for writing Walt and Michael out of the plot without the obligatory killing-them-off angle (which is getting a bit ridiculous).

Sorry, but this was hands down the weakest episode i've seen thus far. Of course that's not even to get into the INCREDIBLY bad acting of the new hot chick on the show. Her lines are completely forced and remind me that i'm watching a show; pulling me out of the momentum of an otherwise compelling storyline.
