Okay so, just finished maybe my 5th or 6th rewatch and had an observation about Smokey(MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH SPOILERS)

So I've only every rewatched to spend time with the characters, never with a critical or even questioning lens.

But I was watching through again and smokey isn't allowed to kill candidates. But there are instances of him "judging" someone. Ie: Mr. Eko, Ben, etc.

So I was thinking, he must do this judgement to see if they can be manipulated and made to do evil on his behalf to further his goals.

That is why Ben lives, and he kills Mr. Eko. He knows Eko is a good man, and in his current state, how he is on the island, would never do something to disappoint his little brother.

Ben on the other hand gets a pass and lives because smokey knows that he is easily manipulated and has as much potential for evil as he does good.

Am I onto something or is this something yall picked up on the first go-round?? 😭

Juliet and Ben

Hi all, so I am on my 2nd rewatch and I am wondering why did Juliet agreed to spy on pregnant women for Ben when she was in the camp. The submarine was set on fire, it's known her sister is healthy and having a baby. Why did she agree? Is it the hope that he will let her go home or simply fear?

Question about Locke and Christian

Just watched the episode where Locke goes into the well to turn the donkey wheel.

And I realized while writing this that I may have already answered my own question.

Locke is down in the well and the island travels to pre-well, pre-Orchid times, sealing up.

Locke is down there... and so is MiB/Smokey in the form of Christian Shephard. Except Christian hasn't traveled to the island yet and MiB can't possibly know the information.

However, the frozen donkey wheel is already in place without a well which means the area is unstuck in time.

So, how is this? Is this just the "present day" MiB in the form of Christian also traveling through time with everyone?

Question for 2004/2005 live watchers {Deus Ex Machina}

I've seen the show many times. My absolute favorite, but I didn't start watching until season 5 was airing. I have a question about what viewers thought was going on at the time of the original broadcast.

Boone climbs into the beach craft and tries the radio. He says "mayday, we are the survivors of oceanic 815". He gets a response - what did viewers hear at the time? What did subnoscripts say?

I know Bernard is on the other end saying "WE'RE the survivors of oceanic 815" but it doesn't sound like that in this episode. And I don't trust modern Hulu/Netflix subnoscripts to reflect what may have been originally perceived as the response.

Thanks.

Does anyone have the meme where it’s Desmond and it says “aggressively doesn’t know”?

How many times have you watched Lost?

I've only recently joined Reddit, and this sub, and I'm so pleasantly surprised at how many old - and new! - fans are here. I'm curious to see how many people are first time watchers, second, 3rd, 4th, 5th, more... I stopped counting but I think I must be somewhere around 8 or so times. I wanted to make a poll but it appears they're disabled here, so please let me know in the comments! 😊 (and if you're a first time watcher, I'd love to hear what led you to discover the show now, after so many years).

Looking for "Pocketful of Sunshine" LOST promo


ABC had a LOST promo running which showed clips of LOST (mostly Kate and Sawyer being hot and sweaty) while Natasha Bedingfield's "Pocketful of Sunshine" played in the background, emphasizing the lyrics to "take me away" to "a sweet escape" and "a secret place".

It ran incessantly . I would like to find it to remind myself how absolutely tone-deaf it was in respect to the plot of LOST.

Link to the only "good" LOST promo, but not the one I'm looking for.

Nearing end of season 3 - First time watcher - Should I restart?

Hi all,

It somehow didn't occur to me that Lost had a subreddit to look through and I see that the first advice is to not do anything else whilst watching. Let's just say that hasn't been my top skill so far. I'm debating rewatching from the beginning.

Some context: I started watching lost maybe 7 months ago when it was recommended by Netflix after finishing another show. I watched a lot of the first two seasons + half of season 3 and then stopped. I watched a lot of it on planes, so I was sleepy for some big chunks, but I didn't sleep through any of it to my knowledge. I stopped halfway through season 3 cuz it felt very fillery (which I now see is a standard opinion). I just restarted last week after finishing a different show and feeling lost (pun intended) as to what to watch. I have moderate memory of the seasons I watched before, but it sounds like this is a very pay attention show... I'm occasionally confused right now, but I also know that's standard for lost...

So, to those of you who have watched all the way through, should I restart? Will I miss a lot by having so so memory of the first two and a half seasons? I fully intend to rewatch it sometime soon when done either way to get a full experience, but wondering if I should pull the bandaid and do it now!

If you need any spoiler context, I'm partway through episode 20 of season 3
