also, probably not significant, but the backdrop for the Dez/Penny photo is HNL.

i just realized blueski was being sarcastic : (

I love how Alan Fucking Dale makes such a big deal about the whisky, but then it turns out you can go drink it in in any old random pub.

...or beach.

― Rick Gibralter (grady), Friday, 16 February 2007 01:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Hah but that's OBV the point!

nice of them to get Dave Gahan in for the backdrop-photo scene tho

OH ROFFLES

Wow... this was teh shit! Desmond is a winner! Best episode since whatever episode from season 1, no doubt. Stepping off the linear timeline was the best thing they could do. Truly warped, truly wonderful.

― Le Bateau Ivre (gerard), Friday, 16 February 2007 02:23 (seventeen years ago) link

I also thought it was a great episode. I really like Charlie and I totally expect that something's going to stand in the way of his death, leading to some sort of breakthrough for Desmond.

(That was brilliant about "Wonderwall," Nick.)

does anyone else do a double take when they see posters for this film:

I like how Claire took our advice and cut her bangs herself on the island.

― Carey (Carey), Friday, 16 February 2007 06:16 (seventeen years ago) link

Dharma shark tried to bite her face off when she was face-down underwater, but was still weak from being shot by Sawyer in S2, so missed by an inch or so, and merely chomped her a new fringe. Everything happens for a reason!

My mind is still totally blown by this ep.
I think the writers got tired of people saying "sto answering questions with more questions!" and decided to instead answer some questions with a huge WTF (which, I admit, is actually a question, but fuck it).

― teh_kit (g-kit), Friday, 16 February 2007 08:55 (seventeen years ago) link

why did they have to make up 'Graybridge' football (footage looked like a Spanish game) team when it's OK for them to talk about the Red Sox? DELIBERATE WIND-UP

― resumo impetus (blueski), Friday, 16 February 2007 10:31 (seventeen years ago) link

also "lobsters on the pier" lol

they should've had Desmond tip the barman 10%

shame we couldn't see Eko in London

― resumo impetus (blueski), Friday, 16 February 2007 10:33 (seventeen years ago) link

the whole chestnuts scene with Mrs Hawking was so Matrix Oracle

― resumo impetus (blueski), Friday, 16 February 2007 10:36 (seventeen years ago) link

you know, you're right. and now i feel a little sick.

― GAWD PVNCH (yournullfame), Friday, 16 February 2007 10:54 (seventeen years ago) link

I was surprised that Judi Dench Jr. said that pushing the button was Desmond's big accomplishment in life, when turning the key seems to me equal or more important.

― the people's prince (jergins), Friday, 16 February 2007 17:41 (seventeen years ago) link

lol @ "judi dench jr."

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 16 February 2007 17:42 (seventeen years ago) link

anybody know why 'next week on lost' is never included in the torrents?

― the people's prince (jergins), Friday, 16 February 2007 17:43 (seventeen years ago) link

It is for the good of us torrenting folx. Jokes apart, I think you can get them in some torrents, dunno which oens

― jibe (jibe), Friday, 16 February 2007 18:24 (seventeen years ago) link

You can always find the "next week on LOST" bits on youtube.

― nklshs (nklshs), Friday, 16 February 2007 19:26 (seventeen years ago) link

Shit I bet if you looked hard enough you could find Judi Dench Jr Pickett Make-Outs on youtube.

― nklshs (nklshs), Friday, 16 February 2007 19:26 (seventeen years ago) link

i'm counting on you, nicka.

― Rick Gibralter (grady), Friday, 16 February 2007 19:38 (seventeen years ago) link

We all are. While on your hunt, please find the cut Tom-on-Benry scenes please.

― jibe (jibe), Friday, 16 February 2007 20:02 (seventeen years ago) link

next episode preview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sarZ-buukoQ

ha just saw Goodwin in Ugly Betty

― resumo impetus (blueski), Friday, 16 February 2007 21:58 (seventeen years ago) link

rly not looking like a dharma logo on the red trainers there. sad to say i went back and checked. also the flash frames right after the key turn were unenlightening too.

BAH.

― BounceBounceBounce R TINY KITN (bounce), Friday, 16 February 2007 21:58 (seventeen years ago) link

It isn't just, like, a Converse logo, is it?

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 16 February 2007 22:02 (seventeen years ago) link

http://losteastereggs.blogspot.com/ is good if yr into that sort of thing

― BounceBounceBounceBounceBounceBounceBounce (bounce), Friday, 16 February 2007 22:05 (seventeen years ago) link

I have to admit that Charlie is annoying when he get's all overprotective about Claire and the baby.

He's an utter dick! An addict deliberately getting an alcoholic drunk? I think he's a great character.

I also went back and checked the logo on the runners. Not Dharma.

Lolz@ fake London, with its lobsters on the pier, and its posters for the Scots Brigade calling all and sundry to fight with HONOR (and American guns).

STILL NOT ENOUGH SAYID, FUCKOS!

Maybe have been drinking.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Friday, 16 February 2007 23:00 (seventeen years ago) link

London has no lobsters?

― Beth Parker (Beth Parker), Friday, 16 February 2007 23:16 (seventeen years ago) link

but jeweler time cop lady actress (Fionula Flanagen)

She was the creepy old maid from... wait for it... THE OTHERS!

― onimo (nu_onimo), Saturday, 17 February 2007 00:30 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, really, london really doesn't have lobsters? me and beth could send you some.

― scott seward (121212), Saturday, 17 February 2007 00:39 (seventeen years ago) link

we have lobsters
and the Thames has a few piers
but you can't buy LOBSTERS ON THE PIER

― resumo impetus (blueski), Saturday, 17 February 2007 00:49 (seventeen years ago) link

That's too bad.

― Beth Parker (Beth Parker), Saturday, 17 February 2007 01:08 (seventeen years ago) link

I watched it when I was quite drunk and got pretty emotional about the whole thing. Especially when Penny was trying to convince him he was worth something. Really, really great episode.

Couple of stupid cock-ups on the British front, though. Wouldn't Desmond actor have said "Eerr... we wouldn't have posters like that and we certainly wouldn't spell 'Honour' that way" to the props people?? Oh well.

― Alba (Alba), Saturday, 17 February 2007 01:48 (seventeen years ago) link

i sort of thought that the over-the-topness of desmond's flashback scenes were purposful, indicative of a dream or an in his head experience, rather than a literal, in his body experience.

didn't the whole thing have a dreamy, unreal feel to it?

― lxy (lxy), Saturday, 17 February 2007 03:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Yes, if it was real no one would have given Charlie money for singing Wonderwall.

― The Many Faces of Gordon Jump (Leon), Saturday, 17 February 2007 03:15 (seventeen years ago) link

the extras in the busking scene were awful..."bopping"

this episode was quite ridiculous but good I guess, tho the scene with the old woman was a little too crazy maybe. also why did getting hit with the bat send him back to the island?

― Ronan (Ronan), Saturday, 17 February 2007 04:52 (seventeen years ago) link

is it possible he died in both instances? when he turned the key and when he got the bat to the head?

― Ronan (Ronan), Saturday, 17 February 2007 04:53 (seventeen years ago) link

I was thinking that whatever Desmond went through was The Island trying to tell him something ala what Locke went through - except that Boone is now Judi Dench Jr.

― Stuck in ILX Limbo (Roz), Saturday, 17 February 2007 09:00 (seventeen years ago) link

bah beaten to the lobsters on pier thing.

― BounceBounceBounceBounceBounceBounceBounce (bounce), Saturday, 17 February 2007 09:26 (seventeen years ago) link

brittishers be getting worked up over lobsters on the pier!

― Rick Gibralter (grady), Saturday, 17 February 2007 09:32 (seventeen years ago) link

also, FINAL DESTINATION ppl

― BounceBounceBounceBounceBounceBounceBounce (bounce), Saturday, 17 February 2007 09:41 (seventeen years ago) link

If Final Destination was it, then they're ALL meant to die when flight 815 went down but then the Island became the intervening event, and now they're going to be picked off one by one according to where they were sitting. 0.o

― Stuck in ILX Limbo (Roz), Saturday, 17 February 2007 09:58 (seventeen years ago) link

spooky ring shop lady said, if desmond doesn't, well whatever, "we're all dead". or summink

― BounceBounceBounceBounceBounceBounceBounce (bounce), Saturday, 17 February 2007 10:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Wouldn't Desmond actor have said "Eerr... we wouldn't have posters like that and we certainly wouldn't spell 'Honour' that way" to the props people??

Nobody ever listens to me. Sigh.

I agree though, that the not-quite-rightness of the London scenes made for a lovely kind of fever dream. Poor Desmond. I really like him, and he is an excellent foil for Charlie, really.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Saturday, 17 February 2007 11:03 (seventeen years ago) link

i tht dench jr was when 'lost' jumped the shark tbqf

this ep really wasn't that revealing!

they made a lot of the ring going in the river. maybe hobbit boy will go after it/it'll turn up on the beach. also the jom robinson/deezy thing is a bit too much like the jin/sun thing, no?

― temporary enrique (temporary enrique), Sunday, 18 February 2007 12:53 (seventeen years ago) link

Well I guess they were running out of new ways to portray fathers in a bad light.

― Alba (Alba), Sunday, 18 February 2007 12:58 (seventeen years ago) link

I started watching Heroes, and that seems to be full of bad or absent dads too. And then there's the new series of 24 ...
