Yes. Yes. The X Files is the answer to all your "WTF Lost, you didn't have any of this planned and I'll never get any satisfying answers!" problems. Oh yes, it most definitely is. Totally. Go for it!

I'm very very very very very sorry for this bit of gratuitous bitchiness here, but this is A Pet Peeve. JJ Abrams doesn't write Lost! He just helped get it on the air! I am a giant nerd, somebody slash my throat!

For real. They can answer every question that way now. "The island can jump through time and apparently space. It's just the time-space continuum, that's not what matters. What matter is: Kate, do you choose Jack or Sawyer?"

Yeah. I'm not trying to let my atheism show here, because religion imagery can be done *excellently*, but I wanted Lost to be more sci-fi than fantasy, more this-island-is-a-crazy-sci-fi-spot than this-island-keeps-the-light-of-life.

I get Jin caring about Sun more than about the daughter he's never met, I do. I don't get Sun not sending him away for their daughter, though. WHO'S EVEN GONNA RAISE HER? Oh, right, Kate.

OH NO YOU DIDN'T. Angel is not fit to wash Pacey's awful Hawaiian shirts. Go angst somewhere else, SNORANGEL (That's Snore + Angel, btw).

No one can argue with that.

Don't get me wrong, I like mystery and no answers, it's just that I'm afraid the island won't be explained at all. It will be just "well, it's MAGICAL". WE ALREADY KNOW THAT. Idk, I don't expect any answers at all, but if they started a show about a freaky island, the least I expected was for them to know what the freaky island is.

It's just chalk in a cave. It's just chalk in a cave. IT'S JUST CHALK IN A CAVE. I'm using that to explain everything in life from now on. Why am I late to work? It's just chalk in a cave. Where do babies come from? It's just chalk in a cave. Why does the blood in your shirt match the victim's blood? It's just chalk in a cave. Lost: it's just chalk in a cave, y'know? It doesn't mean anything.

Man, Soft Gabe will be here to cover that later, this is Losttown.

Yeah, but Gabe watches Fringe for PACEY WITTER. You can't really blame him.

There's a very big difference between a bunch of white people being ridiculous in a sitcom and a bunch of "brown people" being ridiculous in a sitcom. It's all about social context. Like racism.

I'd also like to congratulate Gabe. I just spent three weeks without Videogum, and as I caught up last night I felt like a hole, in my soul, that had been killing me forever (three weeks), a place where a flower never grows (flowers shouldn't grow inside of you, see a doctor), was now finally filled again. And I will miss these recaps, but Gabe's mental stability is more important than Gossip Girl. That's saying a lot! Live long and prosper, Gabe!

What a wonderful supportive brother! These people are all wonderful, I want them to be my friends. So I can invite them all to a big cocktail party and poison all their cocktails. I throw some great parties.

Basically Chuck takes girls who wanted their first times to be ~special~ and ~meaningful~ and fucks that right out of them. Chuck is a gentleman. A rapist, but a classy gentlemanly rapist.

Right? Say she's two years younger, which would make sense ("Sense". Gossip Girl. They go together.). That means she's now the same age they all were on season one? When they were all sleeping around all over the place?

Since we're on the subject, when did getting called a racist become a worse offense than , y'know, racism? These days the internet is all "hey, let's not throw that word around, it's so strong!" and "hey, let's make sure this is really racism before we hurt people's feelings by calling them something so awful as racists!", and yet racism itself goes around everywhere and no one cares because we're too busy trying to figure out what it is. In 2010. Oh, us.

Look, if you say "allons-y", I'm only going to assume you know Doctor Who, and that's gonna be embarrassing for all of us.

I remember watching this (the first one) with an audience of teenage girls (I was a teenage girl at the time, not a pervert with a mustache), and everyone let out noises of recognition when he showed up at the poker match. Sadly, he was totally upstaged by Pacey Witter. The teenage girls (I repeat, I was a teenage girl) totally melted at that one. How the tides turn: now Topher has his own Videogum feature! Meanwhile, Pacey Witter is on that show Gabe watches every week but pretends he hates. He's also banging Diane Krueger, but details. /ontdgum /drunkonvodkagum

Spoiler alert, please, no every one of us has read the leaked script where it's revealed Topher Grace is the mother of Jacob and MIB.

Idk, you guys, I felt dirty for most of last night because I was yelling: "LISTEN TO JACK, JACK KNOWS WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT! JACK IS RIGHT, YOU GUYS!" whenever we were in the island*. This is so not my comfort zone. At least I still cheered when Kate got shot, so not all is lost. So, candidates: it's pretty much down between Jack and Hurley, right? There's no way Sawyer wins the chocolate factory, Sawyer is toast. *Not Sideways LA, Jack there was still wrong about everything.

How is that even a question? You already have to get wasted the day you turn legal, it's the law, and adding the LOST SERIES FINALE on top? Yeah, you're gonna be hungover on the 24th.

Yeah, while I'm waiting for the freaking plane at the airport, I still have to look at my ticket whenever they call any flight, because I can't memorize that number for even half an hour.

Later as in the post-finale Jimmy Kimmel special? Or later in the tell-all memoir they'll release ten years from now: Gotcha.

To me it looked more like it went through her shoulder. But then, that's a fatal shot in the tv world, so yes, she should have died instantly.

Your comment is eloquent, on point, and had me nodding furiously -- I might have let out a loud "Yes!" at some point. So I'm sorry for responding with a gif, but it's the best I can do to show my appreciation: http://i39.tinypic.com/xbbcqv.jpg
