IMHO, I don’t think he convinced anyone that he was reliving the day over and over… I think he’s been mildy successful in convincing some of them that he was not ‘crazy’ or the killer…

take last nite… he didn’t convice chad that he was reliving, but he did convince chad (thanks to a laser pointer) that he wasn’t totally nuts… chad then said “well, if it is true, you’ll find it here” - knowing full well that if it wasnt true, it really didnt matter.

Looks like “Daybreak” is going the way of “The Nine”. My paper reported today that ABC will let it run thru the end of Dec, but the Jan episodes will only be available on-line. Oh, and “Lost” moves to 10:00PM in Feb. That’s not good…

Forgot to add last nite…

I’m really wondering about the crazy guy… they keep showing him… makes me wonder if he ‘is caught’ as well, or??? IOW, he seems to not just be a piece of background…

When Crazy Guy was spotted in the very first episode, I knew he was a repeater. Not really sure what the giveaway was, but I definitely got a “repeater” vibe from him.

What’s not good about “Lost” moving to 10:00 PM?

Too late for some people, but the main problem is that it’s having trouble competing with other shows-- _Criminal Minds_ (!), and _American Idol_ to be specific.

Oh, one other thing: It screws up the logistics of how my \*Lost \*group watches the show! 🙂

Sorry about your group. I’m guessing it was moved primarily to avoid “American Idol”. Apparently _nothing_ can compete with that.

This might be better, hopefully I can watch all the remaining episodes all together instead of once a week.

Unfortunately, they usually release them online once a week, the day they were to air.

Unless the story is going to wrap up with a satisfying conclusion on-air and then on-line, I don’t see much point in watching another minute of the show. If I’m going to be left hanging with no resolution or explaination I might as well quit while I’m ahead.
