LOST Returns!
Posted by Primogeniture on February 7th, 2008
It started last week with “The Beginning of the End” and continues tonight with the second episode of an eight episode reserve that survived the writer’s strike. The powers that be ( “Darlton” ) seem to have taken a different approach when kicking off this, their fourth, season. Past years begin with mind-blowing BANGS! Just look back to the pilot, “Man of Science, Man of Faith” with Jack entering the infamous Hatch, and “A Tale of Two Cities” with our introduction to the Others. One thing is for sure, each opener established the plot and tone for its season, so expect the same to come from BotE. These “rescuers”, whoever they are, and the division of the lostaways into the JACK PACK and the LOCKE FLOCK will no doubt resonate throughout this season…or however much of this season we get.
Thankfully, things are looking better on the writer’s strike front. Could we be getting good news within a week? As it stands, it is probably too late to salvage the full season, but we just might get a few more episodes and a good finale out of this. That’s IF things go well and the whole strike is called of very soon. In the meantime, I’ll be savoring every second of LOST I get.
