It's on a short list of DVDs to buy for those TV-less summer nights. Good to get a positive endorsement from ya!

LOL, yeah, and the endorsement is coming from a person who was highly critical of re-launching the series with new a new Doctor too. They've done a fantastic job with it though, keeping just enough of the lore from the original series and adding a modern feel (and special effects, obviously) to make it fresh. Once in a while old artifacts will show up though, like the original K-9, which makes if fun for fans of the old series.

Something else interesting. The Kwons would appear to be the first "flash sideways" we've seen where the alternate was definitely NOT better than the situation on the island. A few of the others may have been borderline, but most have been generally better.

I forget what happened to the Kwon's prior to the island sinking. they were going to run away if I remember correctly, right? They were on the plane to start a new life, blah blah blah??
I only ask because who knows if Suns father would have hunted them down, had Jin killed, then brought Sun back. Maybe there' flash sideways isn't that bad afterall ??

Richard's timeline wouldn't change. Nothing about the island would change until the 70's when the bomb went off.

Dharma still existed, as we know from Ben in the alternate timeline with his dad.

As Richard's time was long before the 70's, then he wouldn't have an alternate timeline up till that point.

I don't know if the concept of "before" and "after" really apply if one is talking about a separate reality.

Consider that we already have people going back and forth in time, from one reality to another.

People were popping forwards and backwards with the flash a season or so ago.

Desmond channeled Billy Pilgrim and was popping back and forth in time in an episode a few season back.

Faraday's whole experimental gig was the movement through time.

The first thing Ben asked when he ended up in Tunisia after turning the wheel was "what year is this"?

They found the ancient polar bear remains in Tunisia (Faraday's girl friend was involved in that), which were presumably transported there backwards in time from the island.

So there clearly are plenty of time travel elements already established.

So if somehow there was an effect on Richard back in the mid 1800's, it wouldn't be without precedent.

I hadn't considered Ben's dad's comments about the island, but it was sufficiently vague that things could be very different from what has already been portrayed regarding Ben's life on the island.
 
Do we know who all of the "candidates" are? According to Flocke there are 'six' people he needs to leave the island with.

Jack
Sawyer (or did he cross his name off?)
Hurley
Kwon (which?)

And who else? Desmond? Charles Widmore, perhaps?

The reason I speculate Widmore is that there seems to be an emphasis on not killing candidates. Flocke could not kill Sawyer according to the little ghost. Jack cannot off himself. There seem to be certain 'rules' in place.

When Ben visited Widmore when he left the island Widmore said to him that he couldn't be killed by Ben. It was against the 'rules'.

Or did they already sort of name the candidates and I'm brainfarting?

They were those four, plus Sayid and Locke himself IIRC, one corresponding to each of the numbers 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42.

Locke crossed his name off, and Sawyer and Sayid are looking less and less likely, so it's basically one or more of the Kwons, Jack, and Hurley.

The six candidates were:

Sawyer, Jack, Hurley, Sayid, Locke, and either Sun or Jin.

Locke's name, of course, was crossed off by Smokey.

If Doctor Who shows up, it will be the best episode of all times.

That begs the question though... which Doctor? I mean we're messing around in time already, so do we get Tenant, or the new guy, or Tom, or Eccelston? Ooh, or maybe we can get the daughter or Doctor Donna. Those would fit in well in the Lost world.
 
I'm surprised this wasn't bumped yet
 
So, a friend of mine works in TV, and he claims he knows how the show ends. I won't say what he works on, or who he got it from (someone on the show), or what it is (I haven't asked).

Mostly, I'm just waiting to see how badly they duped him!

You should have him mail it to himself in a timestamped/sealed envelope to keep him honest.

I love Desmond episodes. Anyone else doubting at all that I was right about something forcing the sideflash LA losties to choose which reality will be real. And in some cases like the dead folks, it should be an interesting sell, indeed.

Yup, that was one of my favorites. Interesting to see Penny and Charlie migrate back from their Flash Forward into a Flash Sideways that might also be Forward.

so this whole F'n show will come down to people needing to choose between love and money.

So the question is: who are Charles and Eloise that they know about what happened with the bomb on the island? They seem to have 100% of the inside scoop.
