13th watch and I am FINALLY asking this question.

Ok so I'm on my 13th rewatch. Every time I am really suffering in hospital, Lost is my comfort show. I'm in season 2 and I STILL don't really understand WTF they do with Michael's character. But on top of that, the introduction about Walt's "special gifts" that basically disappear after this season. I know the excuse was, the actor grew up. But there were SO many ways they could have done this, it was a really interesting thing. Especially when Miss Q essentially repeats the same lines as the lawyer to Michael on the island. Has anyone got thoughts about this dropped thread? Like, they always knew the actor would grow up. And by season 2 they KNEW the show wasn't getting cancelled so....? Just curious what other intricacies obsessive LOST people think about. The other one is the dude in the Temple who randomly appears in the last season as if he's supposed to really mean something with his made up language but then just POOFS. These are my two Lost mysteries 13 watches in.

PS. I never watched while it was airing. Except 6. Which I hated until I binged it. I have a binge problem (luckily only with good and sometimes bad reality TV)

How annoying was the ending?

I watched the show live as it aired. I was annoyed with the ending and wondering how many other people are? I rewatched just to make sure my initial thoughts weren’t right but they are. The creators at the time promised it wasn’t purgatory but it is. Seasons 1-5 had so much fun and sci fi, they could’ve done something way better with season 6.

Did an audio commentary on MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN with director Bobby Roth and Young Ben, Sterling Beaumon!

Lost-isms

Of course we all pick up on “WALT”, “don’t tell me what I can’t do”, and “we have to go back”, but what other recurring phrases or story beats have you pick up on?

For me, it’s “in case you haven’t noticed” and Kate picking up on a dummy trail while tracking.

Question?

When Claudia appears to Jacob's brother, is it the monster?

LOST on BluRay

I have the series on DVD and would love to have it on BluRay. Is there a particular edition that's better than the others? Not concerned with price, I just want the best possible version.

Season 3 beginning

I am currently on season 3 episode 4 and at the start of the season I really wonder why Charlie didn't alert everyone when he got back to the camp about the hatch imploding and he didn't even tell them about Eko being wounded and he just joined them like nothing happened like how does that make sense. I don't know if I am missing something.

Most of these people have little to go back to. Why are they in such a rush to go back home? Would you want to leave the island? I would stay

Sterling Beaumon and Michael Emerson - pretty good casting
