“Where we going Mommy?”

“We’re going on vacation, baby.”

And among the other intriguing things in this new promo: Juliet uncovering what looks to be another hatch, Daniel wearing a mining helmet underground, Locke at Jacob’s cabin, Sun locked in a room demanding to be let out, and what looks to be the words “DHARMA Initiative” that flashes by very rapidly (don’t blink or you might miss seeing it).

DarkUFO has an even better quality version for you to enjoy looking… and guessing… at....

Lost is returning for its fifth season on January 21st (two and a half months from now) with “Because You Left”, the two-hour premiere. That’s according to James Hibberd’s The Live Feed. Lost will have the 9 p.m. Wednesday slot for the rest of the season (which will no doubt make a lot of people happy that they don’t have to stay up so late… right Geoff? šŸ™‚

Speaking of Lost, I have been hearing some weird rumors regarding Season 5. Namely: that when Ben moved the Island it went backward in time and we’ll see the castaways who stayed behind meeting up with DHARMA folks like Horace and “Dr. Candle”, that there will be a flashback episode for the Black Rock, that “Jeremy Bentham” will turn out to be a clone, etc. What other show but Lost could make such outrageous concepts perfectly logical for the ...

If you’ve always wanted to check out Lost but felt daunted by how far along the story is (production on Season 5 begins next month) and you don’t want to chuck good money on DVD sets just yet, you’re in luck. Starting on Monday, September 15th the Sci-Fi Channel will be rerunning Lost. It’ll be four solid hours of Lost every Monday night, from the crash of Oceanic Flight 815 in the pilot episode on through the insane events of “There’s No Place Like Home”, the Season 4 finale. Plenty enough time to catch-up new viewers on things like the Others, the DHARMA Initiative, the Tailies, and all the other stuff they should know before Season 5 premieres in January 2009....

Hey gang: still reeling from the events of “There’s No Place Like Home”, the season finale of Lost that aired last week? Not looking forward to eight months of withdrawal from one of the greatest television shows ever? Well, here’s something that maybe will help ease the suffering. Notorious Lost blogger DocArzt and his bunch have scored the video of a deleted scene from the episode “The Economist”. It depicts Kate, Sayid and Miles arriving at the security fence surrounding the Barracks. A bit of revelation here about Miles, who of all the new characters this season was among the most intriguing and we still don’t know much about him. Anyhoo, he has a great scene here. Enjoy!

You know what haunts me most about this scene? It’s that Ben is crying. This is the last thing that he’s about to do for the Island, the final gesture of his duties as the previous chosen one. And for the first time, we are seeing fear in the face of this master manipulator.

Just before the white light cascades over everything, I can’t help thinking that what’s going through Ben’s mind is, “I’m going to die. Please forgive me.” He knows he’s going to be banished from the Island… and he doesn’t know where he’ll be sent to. He could wind up anywhere in the world, or anywhere above it or inside it. The next moment could find him on the floor of the Atlantic Ocean, for all the good that it would do him. I like to believe that this was a “leap of faith” moment for ...

Like Lisa said last year when waking up the morning after “Through the Looking Glass”: “It’s hard to sleep with something like that on your mind…”

In the 8+ hours since the two-hour conclusion of “There’s No Place Like Home” (read my initial thoughts here) this blog has registered about 3,000 hits. And almost all of those are coming here after looking for “Jeremy Bentham” on Google. When I run the search myself, The Knight Shift shows up in the top ten results because of what was posted about the historical Jeremy Bentham last year. So to all the newcomers: welcome! šŸ™‚

A few days ago the producers of Lost submitted the episodes “The Constant” and “The Shape of Things to Come” for consideration for this year’s Emmy Awards. The deadline to submit is today. I hope there’s some way to submit “There’s No Place Like ...

From the moment that Kate mentioned “Jeremy Bentham” I was screaming during this episode.

(Did that one get called last year, or what? šŸ™‚

“There’s No Place Like Home” did something that I never thought possible: it was an even more intense season finale than “Through the Looking Glass” was last year.

Just… wow. Think I’m gonna need a drink after that one.

Most jaw-dropping scene of the entire television season has got to be the Island moving. Anyone else see that and think they were watching a Halo movie for a second there?

Was great to see Walt again. The producers planned that out very well and I’m hoping we’ll see more of Malcolm David Kelley now that puberty has run its course. The reunion between Desmond and Penny: now that was something that I didn’t see coming, not this soon anyway. I was darn certain they would ...

“We have to go back, Kate. WE HAVE TO GO BACK!”

— Jack Shepherd
Lost, Season 3 Finale “Through the Looking Glass”

And ever since the jaw-dropping season-ending episode a year ago on Lost, a lot of people have been wondering: what could possibly have driven Jack, after everything he’s done to try to get off the Island, toward such desperation about wanting to return to that place?

“Through the Looking Glass” completely re-defined what viewers had come to expect of a favorite television series, and in the process that episode alone cemented Lost as one of the finest works of fiction of the modern era.

And now tonight, after a season that received widespread praise as the best yet (despite its shortened length) Lost Season 4 concludes with the two-hour conclusion of “There’s No Place Like Home”. Will this year’s finale change our perception of this show ...

Two nights from now will be the two-hour finale for Season Four of Lost. We can’t wait to see what happens! For last year’s finale we had a Lost party at our place, which included these DHARMA Initiative food products made with various graphics I found on the web…

Ever since then a lot of people have been writing to me, asking if I could send them the DHARMA labels too for their own Lost parties. Until now I’ve been able to e-mail the zipped-up file containing the labels, but there’s such a barrage of requests coming in right now and I’m going to be so busy the next few days, that responding to each e-mail is going to be downright difficult.

So thanks to file-hosting service MediaFire, I’ve uploaded the zip file containing those labels – in addition to several others that I’ve found since – and am ...
