TOLP (Audio): 10.25.06

There’s a new Offical LOST Podcast out. For you Damon & Carlton fans, however, you’ll be dissapointed; they can’t be on the show this week. Here’s my summary of the episode. Quite simply, really, since Damon & Carlton aren’t on, but oh well.

Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse could not be on this episode because, well, as Chris puts it, they’re busy making a TV show. Instead, they have an interview with Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, who plays Mr. Eko. He talks about the challenges of playing Mr. Eko as well as what he loves in the character, and a little of what we can expect in Season Three.

Remember to check out our Official LOST Podcast page, where you can find the other summaries and key points to Official LOST Podcasts that I have written about.

“The Office” LOST Reference

In 10.19.06’s episode of NBC’s “The Office”, a rather funny LOST reference was made. Dwight, the office weirdo, and also the top salesman and Dunder-Mifflin Paper Company, is training a new salesman, Ryan, in his own weird way. Part of his training includes sitting on a chair in an old barn while Dwight asks him questions about his job.

This installment begins with an interview with Terry O’Quinn, who plays Locke on LOST. He talks about how he thinks Locke feels now that the button is now gone.

Then Damon and Carleton come on and post-hash The Glass Ballerina, in which they say that they told Yunjin Kim, who plays Sun, that Sun had indeed had an affair with Jae back when they were shooting The Whole Truth, the last Sun/Jin flashback.

3.03 “Further Instructions”

Tonight episode 3.03, called “Further Instruction” airs a 9:00 PM EST. After you watch the episode, remember that I will have the Summary come up in the next few days.

Synopsis

“The fates of Locke, Eko and Desmond are revealed after the implosion of the hatch.”

Not very specific, but we’ll go with that.

Well, I think that I agree with most people when I say that the island-based part of this episode was slightly disappointing. The flashback, however, I loved. This adds a whole new dimension onto Locke’s character and makes me think of him in a whole new way.

Earthquake in Hawaii

According to CNN, an earthquake shook Hawaii this morning, measuring 6.5. It seems that the center of the quake was in Oahu, 153 miles away from the Big Island, where LOST is filmed, but the earthquake was still felt there. Aftershocks continued throughout the day, with the largest being measured at 5.8.

The LOST cast and crew were probably not affected, as they film on the Big Island, not Oahu, where the earthquake was centered, and Sunday is an off-day for them.

This is the largest earthquake to hit Hawaii since 1983. Read the CNN article for the whole story.

3.02 “The Glass Ballerina”

“The Glass Ballerina” aired last night. Boy was it a good episode. I’ll have the Summary done in the next couple days (I’m finding that it takes a while to write something as in-depth as the Summary takes some time). I’ll try to get them done as soon as I can every week, but it takes time. I think I watch the episode at least four times on the internet after it airs on TV. It’s really tougher than it looks, especially with school.

Reactions

This is a great episode. I used to hate Sun and Jin flashbacks back when they didn’t get along on the island, but now I love them because I get to see the contrast between their relationship before the crash and the relationship now. I see how their relationship has progressed.

The new Official LOST Podcast is up. It’s an audio version this time; evidently they aren’t going to put out video podcasts every time, just every so often. This could be a good thing for most people without video iPods.

At the beginning is an interview with Elizabeth Mitchell. She talks about playing her character, fitting in with the cast, and being a fan of the show before she was hired.

Then, as usual, Damon and Carlton come in and post-hash A Tale of Two Cities and pre-hash The Glass Ballerina.

Possible Spoiler Warning

If you don’t like known what Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof said in the Official Lost Podcast, which could be slightly spoilerish to some people, don’t read on.

3.01 “A Tale of Two Cities”

Wow. “A Tale of Two Cities” was great. I have the Summary up for reading.
Read it in the “Season 3″ section of the site.

Read on to see the Key Points from the episodes. They will be spoilers if you have not yet seen the episode.

Reactions

After the first five minutes, nothing exceptionally shocking happened, so many may feel that this was a sub-par season premier, but I felt that it did its job, setting up the storyline for the cliffhanger at the end of this block of episodes. This is my favorite Jack flashback, and Matthew Fox had stunning acting performances, on and off the island.

Season Three is FINALLY here!

… (and so is LOSTfix)

That’s right. The season premiere episode, 3.01 “A Tale of Two Cities”, just aired, and with it comes the beginning of season three. Also, the start of my pathetic LOST weblog / website. (I hope I’m wrong on the “pathetic” part).

Well, tomorrow afternoon I’ll post my A&S (analysis & summary) of the episode, just like I’ll do for every new episode and (hopefully soon) all the previous episodes. I know that tomorrow afternoon may seem a bit far away, but with school and homework and stuff it is the closest time I can get.

Well, read the “About LOSTfix” page to get up-to-date with this site/blog… I guess. Um, I plan on reporting LOST news and stuff, giving info on future episodes, and doing the A&S, too. Browse around to find more information on that. I’ll probably have some new features as we go along, too, because I’m always thinking of new things (some are good, most are dumb).

I’d like this LOST blog to be fairly successful. LOST is one of my main three interests / hobbies (the other two being music and sports… yes, I know my life is sad), so I hope I can make something out of it in this blog. Maybe I’ll start bloggin about the other two interests, but that’s not on subject in a LOST blog, is it?

So… Ya. This is my LOST blog, LOSTfix. Get the word around, if you like it (I hope).
