Way to milk the ad revenue, ABC.

Man, the bittorrents won’t get unloaded until 1am at that rate.

(Yeah, yeah, weep for me…!)

I’m shocked this got no responses! I expected a woo-woo pile-on. This must be the first Cafe Society thread I’ve started in years with no comment.

We’re still in shock!

The wife and I have already planned the evening: dinner, what wine to serve, when to swap tapes on the fly, etc. 😃

Who wants to speculate how the season will end?

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say it’ll be about several subplots at once:

Revelations about the Others.

Michael, Walt, Sawyer and a fouth castaway taking to the seas in the raft.

Claire’s baby being born.

And… dare I hope this…? We find out what the TCM is!!

I think it’ll end when they find the cast and crew from The Real Gilligan’s Island. This of course will only add more questions as people try to guess who the Lost castaways will vote for.

Big Lost episode. Yippee! 😃
