What did you think of 6×05 “Lighthouse”? (poll)

Locke (the fake one) steals a line from Locke (the real one). Weird!

Posted on February 18, 2010 | 8 comments

I thought the strangest moment in “The Substitute” was when fake Locke (aka Flocke, notLocke, unLocke, and the Locke-ness Monster) chases after the blond kid. Fake Locke falls (not unlike the way that Real Sideways Locke falls), and the kid stands over him, and says “You know the rules. You can’t kill him.”

"You know the rules. You can't kill him."

Then fake Locke says, “Don’t tell me what I can’t do.”

The kid shakes his head and walks away.

Then fake Locke points his finger and yells, loudly: “Dont tell me what I can’t do!”

"Don't tell me what I can't do!!"

So why does fake Locke sound exactly like real Locke here? Why is he repeating real Locke’s most famous signature line?

We’ve already seen leakage into the Sideways world. Could there also be leakage into the Island world? Is that what we saw in this scene?

Or is something else going on?

I listed the possibilities that occurred to me in the poll below. What do you think? Do you have any other ideas?

Here’s the clip:

What did you think of 6×03 “What Kate Does”?

Sideways Kate

I’m back on the West Coast this week, so I will be watching it late.

Meanwhile, I leave you with a poll. As I remain unspoiled (except for the brief sneak peeks), I tried to pick general questions that will apply no matter what might happen in the episode — but if they show us that Sayid is really Frogurt, all bets are off.

Choose as many answers as apply:

Will be back soon

LOST does it. Glee does it. V does it. FlashForward does it. They all, alas, go on hiatus. Now I’m going to go on a hiatus too — but only for about a week.

If you are looking for the post Doc Jensen mentioned, the one discussing the chess-themed Cuatro promo and poem, that’s here: Author of the chessboard poem in the Spanish LOST promo

Otherwise, I leave you with a poll:

Will LOST still be on Wednesdays?

LOST Season 6 Poster

Update 11/19/09: ABC just announced that LOST Season 6 will be on Tuesday nights.

———————–
Original post below:

ABC will be cancelling Eastwick after 13 episodes. That will leave a 10 PM Wednesday night slot open, which seems perfect for LOST.

But E! Online reports that ABC is thinking of moving Ugly Betty into that time slot in order to make Wednesdays solid nights of comedy.

P.S. Eastwick is one of my favorite guilty pleasures. Though it’s not a brilliant show like LOST, it’s a lot of fun, with exuberant acting, a dab of suspense, and more strong women characters per square inch than the vast majority of shows on TV.

This may be a lost cause (no pun intended), but if you like Eastwick too, please consider signing the petition to save the show. Fans of the show are also trying to get #SaveEastwick onto Twitter’s Trending Topics list.

I like ‘V’ better than ‘FlashForward’

Promo picture for "V" with Elizabeth Mitchell in the center

While there’s only been one episode of V so far, I’m already liking it better than FlashForward, the other show with a LOST alum as a star. I thought V had more interesting characters (the teenagers, in particular, I thought were very well done), better production values (the inside of the ship was cool), better dramatic conflicts, better dialogue, and hints of some intriguing themes.

It’s no LOST (even if they did have a guy who got out of a wheelchair), but so far, it looks good.

What do you think? Which science-fiction show, with an FBI investigation, starring a blonde LOST actress, do you prefer?

Editing to add 8/17/10: After the haitus, I thought FlashFoward got much better, and by the end, I was sorry that it was canceled. I wanted to see more. I thought V, on the other hand, went downhill in the spring. So I’ve changed my mind completely about both shows. This was one case where first impressions were not accurate!
