A Few Points of Clarification Before Tomorrow Night


I was listening to the podcast that the two head writers for LOST (Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof) do each week after a new episode, and I wanted to pass along a few interesting points of clarification, straight from the horse's mouth (as it were).

1. The scenes on the plane and in LAX were not really an "alternate" reality, but a co-reality. Damon said that this will be reconciled throughout the season, but that the things we saw weren't potential occurrences...they were definite events. How all of this works out is obviously TBD.

2. The bomb did work, as Juliet said, but again...how it worked...well, that's the reason we're watching the show. A little bit more of mystery never hurt nobody. Both writers said they did not want to have Season 6 be one episode after another of answering all the questions of the show. They want to keep us on our toes the whole way through, with some answers along the way this year. (See: Smoke Monster = Esau)

3. Tuesday's new episode is entitled "What Kate Does", a call-back to "What Kate Did" from Season 2. Tv.com describes the episode as follows:

Kate finds herself on the run, while Jack is tasked with something that could put a friend's life at risk.

Sounds juicy.

Here's an interesting re-cap and pre-hash of Kate's story-line that I found on YouTube:




If you wanted to hear another LOST-related podcast, here's one that Jorge Garcia (Hurley) put together.

I'll have my own re-cap posted probably by Thursday of this week. Enjoy "What Kate Did".
