The Official LOST Audio Podcast — rehash “LA X” and prehash “What Kate Does”

Damon and Carlton

First audio podcast of the season. Damon and Carlton discuss:

— The space in the title “LA-space-X.” They’re not telling us what it means.

— What are the flash sideways? They’re not telling us what they mean either. Hah.

— Why they are not calling the flash sideways “alternate realties.” Or Bizarro World, for that matter.

— What are we to make of the differences between what happened on the plane in the flash sideways, and what happened when we originally saw it in the flashbacks?

They sort of answered this one! Detonating a bomb might have created changes other than the ones that Faraday anticipated. After all, if stepping on a butterfly can cause all sorts of unanticipated effects, then dropping a nuclear bomb on that butterfly could cause even more.

— Why does Jack seem to recognize Desmond on the plane? Was Sun lying when she said she didn’t know English? Carlton says he doesn’t know. 😉

Oh, here’s something very interesting –> Damon says:

You think that not that many things have changed, but a lot more things have changed than you probably think. And that’s going to be the exploration of the season.

Hmmmm.

Then they do a tiny bit of prehashing of 6×03 “What Kate Does”:

— The episode title corresponds to a previous one, What Kate Did (2×09).

And they answer fan questions. You can send your own to lostfanquestions@abc.com.

You can listen to the whole podcast here: LOST Podcasts (it’s the one dated Feb. 4, 2010), or on iTunes.

LOST Schedule for February 9, 2010

Alt Kate

Here’s the schedule for the next episode in the U.S.:

Tuesday, Feb. 9 on ABC:

8:00 — A rerun of part 2 of “LA X.” This is going to be the enhanced version, with the sometimes obvious, but sometimes helpful pop-up hints. (It doesn’t look like they are going to be rerunning part 1, at least not this week.)

9:00 — The new episode, 6×03 “What Kate Does.” ABC’s description:

Kate finds herself on the run; Jack must do something that may endanger a friend’s life.

Showings, as always, will be an hour earlier for Central Time.

Screencap of alt Kate is from the sneak peek of episode 6×03.

Promos for 6×03 from the U.S. and the U.K.

Both of these contain footage from the upcoming episode.

This is from ABC:

And this is from the U.K’s Sky One:

LOST recaps

While I reserve the right to change my mind, I’m probably not going to be doing recaps this year. For one thing, my life is going to be chaotic for a while. I’m going to be moving back (and forth? and back?) across the country. But even if I had the time, I would still feel like I was reinventing the wheel — there are already so many great recaps out there, many of them much better than what I could do. Just to mention a couple for now:

One that I stumbled across for the first time this evening is by Lula on the blog Sussing Out LOST. Her recap of the first part of “LA X” (the second part is still to come) hits all the important points of the episode, catches details I had missed (Arzt and Frogurt were both on the plane) as well as subtle points I never would have caught in a million years (A character named Bram — as in Bram Stoker, author of Dracula — was killed with a stake through the heart!). Best of all, the recap is hilarious and made me laugh all the way through: Lula’s LA X recap.

My all-time favorite recapper is Fishbiscuit, who posts on her own blog, Fishbiscuitland, and also on DocArzt’s. Her recaps are brilliant, combining a keen eye for pattern and detail, amazing analysis, discussions of philosophy, science, and literature, which open up the episodes and tie them to the larger world of ideas, and a refreshing feminist perspective which I don’t think I’ve seen in any other discussion of LOST: Fishbiscuit’s recap of LA X.

There are many more fantastic LOST recappers, and I’ll be pointing to more of them as the season goes on.

Sneak peeks of 6×03 “What Kate Does”

Here are two official ABC sneak peeks of the next episode, airing February 9 in the U.S. and Canada. They are spoilers, of course, but it doesn’t look like they are giving away any crucial plot points or surprises (provided you’ve already seen “LA X”).

Lost Untangled 6×01-02 “LA X”

Lost Untangled is back, now with a cute new Dr. Chang puppet. Enjoy!

Hitler gets frustrated by the LOST Season 6 Premiere

Remember the spoof video, Hitler gets angry over LOST Season 5 Finale?

Well, now Hitler is back, and this time he is frustrated by the Season 6 premiere. He doesn’t want to wait for answers. He says:

Track down the writers and torture them till they tell you how it ends.

These LOST Hitler videos, by the way, are part of a much larger group of parody videos all based on the same footage from the movie Downfall.
