I love how they are like "lets have the Lost peeps

->Open Spoiler<-

getting targeted by missiles but not tell anybody where the missiles are coming from, it can be a mystery

. Jokers!

Coming from the

submarine

Would make sense, but its just the way they avoid showing it that amuses me...but then the CGI of the

->Open Spoiler<-

sub erm submerging

(last season?) was proper LOL so I expect they just wanted to avoid the special effects work...

Have to agree, I have loved the show over the past few years. Season 1 was awesome, season 2 was good too, Season 3 was poor, then it picked up with Season 4 and 5, but this season is on par with season 3.

The only good thing about the latest epsidoe was how smokey

->Open Spoiler<-

confirmed that he impersonated the dead people on the island, so jack's dad, Yemi and Micheal (cant remember other dead people now) were smokey

all along.

Just becuase he

->Open Spoiler<-

said he was impersonating jacks dad does not make it true... he had an odd look on his face when he told jack it was him.

I still dont understand why

->Open Spoiler<-

he was impersonating jacks dad in Jacobs cabin a few seasons ago if it really is him, dosent make much sense, unless it never was Jacobs cabin?

[peeveen]

Yup, I too believe he was telling fibs.

[EJG1980]

I think it's a bit of lie and a bit of truth rolled into one.

I think smokey was telling the truth when he said he was

->Open Spoiler<-

impersonating Jack's dad way back at the start of the first series (as he said, he needed the Losties to find the water and survive, and set in motion all the events that help build up smokey's plan of escaping the island) but I think that at other times, Jack's dad could have been "something else".

I think the fact that

->Open Spoiler<-

The body was missing from the coffin shows that there's more to Jack's dad than meets the eye.

If Flocke was Christian Shepherd every time then how did he get out to the freighter when Michael was freezing the bomb? And what about when Sun and Lapidus saw him at New Othertown after the Ajira crash, hadn't he already taken over old Locke's body (and been 'trapped' like that) by then?

[Jebus]

Caught up with the last two episodes.

LOL, what a load of **** that last one was.

Classic post. Spot on!

They seemed to have forgotten that, if

->Open Spoiler<-

smokie was Jack's Dad

which he probably was at the time !? The

->Open Spoiler<-

Christian with the tennis

shoes. He said, "I was helping you find water", yeah right, he

->Open Spoiler<-

seemed to have forgotten Jack nearly feel of a cliff. Who saved him ? That, "sucker" John Locke ! I didn't see a cloud of smoke pull him up or Jack's "Dad" did

you...

The other

->Open Spoiler<-

Christian (the freighter one), might well be a spirit

..?

->Open Spoiler<-

wasnt it Christian who showed locke how to move the Island through time? That must have been smokey as it ended up him eventually taking locke's body

[spagmasterswift]

Just had a thought, you know when

->Open Spoiler<-

Ben released the water down the hole and then Smokey came out killan the soliders, is that because he has a problem with water, we know he can't travel over it so he was pushed out of his hole when it came pouring in? That assuming he lives in a hole...

It's all getting a bit silly as they try and tie things up, really.

I kinda liked it more when it was all about secret hatches and electromagnetic pulses and transmissions on a loop for years.

It's all gone a bit Paul Daniels.

It's like Sleepy Hollow where Depp's character is saying thoughout "I will solve this mystery... with science!". Then it all goes a bit silly in the last 10 minutes.

[Wil]

I just know it's gonna end in mumbo jumbo Such a shame. When it was all hatches, button pushing and you didn't know who the Others were it was fantastic. Even though people complained about not getting answers, it was the not knowing that made the show great.

[peeveen]

I just know it's gonna end in mumbo jumbo

Yup. I won't even mind some mumbo-jumbo, so long as it gives some sort of closure to the various inconsistencies and loose ends we've been subjected to. I'm 99% sure it won't, but I will reserve judgement till the final moment.

The show HAS been entertaining throughout, barring a couple of dips, but in retrospect, I think it's gonna look like a massively wasted opportunity. I hope they can prove me wrong.
