Lost Season 5
« on: September 12, 2008, 11:16:40 PM »
Lost Season 5 8)


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_(season_5)

The fifth season begins February 4, 2009.

WARNING: SPOILERS AND POSSIBLE SPOILERS BELOW!

________________________ ________________________ ______________________
Info released at Comic Con in July:

Though Cuse and Lindelof were as elusive as always during the Q&A session, they did offer up a few hints about the coming season.

1. The producers guaranteed that viewers will finally see Danielle Rousseau's story in season 5, despite the fact that the character recently died. 

2. They revealed that Kate will see Sawyer again.

3. Vincent the dog will be back.

4. We will find out if Richard Alpert has four or five toes. 

5. Desmond will be back.

6. Michael will not be back. He is dead.

7. Jin is not dead.

8. Ana-Lucia will be back. Flashback?

However, the most exciting thing about the new season is that the writers are once again shaking up their storytelling techniques. They plan to tell stories on the island, off the island, in the past and in the future. When the season premiere begins viewers will have no clue when or where they are, which is just how the Lost masterminds like it.

This is the new Dharma clip for the promotion of Lost Season 5 that was shown at the Comic Con.


Note: I will continue to add any tidbits I can until the new season starts. 8)

Please use this thread to discuss the upcoming season.

I got the DVD sets and I'm about halfway through season 3.  It's a fairly entertaining show, and the characters have been interesting enough to keep me watching. 

But....honestly the writers are stupid.  No one talks to one another, no one trusts one another, no one communicates important info to one another.  No one uses there dam heads, for example:

When Jack is imprisoned by "the others"  he passes up chance after chance to negotiate for information.

when Sawyer and Kate leave the island, they pass up a perfect opportunity to find out what the whole dam operation is about from carl.

I mean WTF? 

If i thought back more I'm sure i could find lots more stupidities in logical thinking.

BUT,  I'll probably see it through and watch season 4 and 5     lol

They weren't going to give him any, Oz. The deal was his freedom from the island in exchange for operating on Ben's back. No more. No less.

when Sawyer and Kate leave the island, they pass up a perfect opportunity to find out what the whole dam operation is about from carl.

I doubt Carl knew much about the overall purpose. A lot of them (The Others) don't seem to know much...with the exception of Richard Alpert.

'Lost' moves to Wednesday slot starting Jan. 21
Print this page E-mail this article Share Del.icio.us

By Wayne Harada
Advertiser Entertainment Writer

It'll be Hump Day when "Lost" returns to ABC, starting Jan. 21.


The filmed-in-Hawai'i show will premiere on a Wednesday, returning to its original night after being a Thursday fixture. And expect a three-hour block, from 7 p.m., beginning with an hour of clips, followed by two back-to-back new episodes.

Various Web sites today announced the new playdate.

When it eases into its regular time slot, at 8 p.m. here, it will play opposite a new Fox TV drama, "Lie to Me," which will have a lead-in advantage following "American Idol," always a January-February heavy-hitter.

The return of "Lost" to the Wednesday lineup means that ABC's "Private Practice" will be bumped to another slot, another day.

Jack had full negotiating power because it was about ben's life.  So he could have asked for anything and they would have had no choice but to tell him. 

Carl could have have told tons of info even if he didn't know the overall purpose.  chances are he did have a good idea.

The shows is entertaining because of the characters, don 't get me wrong.  It's just poorly thought out IMO.

Right now, I'd would say that the only thing I'm worried about is the whole reason, the whole secret behind everything...and having it be somewhat anticlimactic. The whole "what's going on on that island" has been built up so much that I'm worried that it may disappoint.

P.S. I still think Jack is Jacob. :)

I'm changing my tune on this show.

Season 4 was much better.  The episode with desmond calling penny on x-mas eve was the best of the series IMO.  The writing has gotten a little better in the sense of not insulting the viewer's intelligence. 

I am looking forward to season 5.

Just got Season 4 in the mail.  About to start our Lost marathon over holiday, where we watch all episodes beginning with Season 1 in preparation for the new season.  Love this show. 
 
Desolate, one of my kids thinks she is the ultimate Lost guru.  I read her some of your posts and she now considers herself the second most knowledgeable person about the show.   :)

I've seen every episode and I'd love some answers, but after watching it this long, that's a dumb thing to ask for.  I'd think with only 2 seasons left, they'll have to start adding things up rather than creating more and more questions...but that's the specialty of the show.

It was okay.  It is now completely a sci-fi show.  It kept me entertained, but I've seen better episodes.  Sort of like the start of Season 4 (slow). 

What did you think?

I liked it, It was entertaining.  It is getting very Si-Fi.  I think Sun has an hidden agenda and wouldn't be surprised if she was the one who sent the lawyers to Kate.  I loved how she shifted gears when her and kate were talking.  She certainly was manipulating her.

Yeah.  Good points.

I like Sun.  She can be ruthless when she needs to be (taking over her father's company, threatening Jin's mom).

i think ben sent the lawyers, it would give kate more of a reason to go back to the island.

I have no clue what sun is up to, but she could be a wrinkle in the plan.  I'm willing to be they drag her there against her will, but she finds that jin is still alive or something.
