Tom. If the hatch blew up in 1960 whatever, there was no button fir Desmond to push.

Oh that's right. Duh! Thanks, SLF.

I see LOST has a new opening:

I hear ya Deb.

So far this season of LOST I am really confused. I sure hope that they can tie up all these loose ends in the remaining episodes they have left. My fear is that they won't.

I will be disappointed if it comes down to a) a dream sequence or b) aliens. Both of those storylines are overplayed.

I quit watching Heroes. Does anyone still watch that show and what do they think of it?

Survivor looks pretty hard core this season, wow.

Yes! I think this is going to be better than I expected. Seeing Stephenie's shoulder get popped back into its socket was cool.

Modern Family is also a winner.

Love Modern Family. I always get a few good laughs. At the end of last week's episode when the two couples were about to part ways and Claire's panties and bra dropped on the floor and she was tripping over them in her heels while trying to pick them up...hilarious.

I still have to see last week's episode of LOST which I plan to watch tonight.

My effing DVR neglected to record LOST last night as I had scheduled. I'm fixin to look for it online.

I watched an episode of The Amazing Race for the first time. I wanted to see Jeff and Jordan from Big Brother. Not sure I'll be able to get into the show just yet.

First time?! I love The Amazing Race for many reasons. One, no one is voting anyone out. It's not a popularity contest. They control their own fate. Two, it lets you see very unique places all over the world. And the other reason I can think of right now is seeing the dynamic between the pairs while they're all stressed out is fascinating to me. Some folks are probably how I would be: A total spaz. Others are just flat out remarkable. They stay calm and still look at the bright side of things and try to encourage and support their partner.

TAR has won many Emmys for good reason, in my opinion. It's a great show (usually). We'll see how this season shakes out.

lol @ Jordan mistaking China for Chile, repeatedly. Lord.

[SeattleLionsFan]

The Amazing Race might be the best reality show out there. If only because it seems like a possibility for a lot of people.

I couldn't ever go on BB or Survivor, but TAR? Maybe.

I love LOST. I'm all caught up and I can't wait for the next episode. I'm very curious to see where they're going with this. The only thing that bums me out is that I know it's coming to an end soon.

Technically, the "universe" where they landed safely in LA is in the past in terms of the island "universe" where Locke is dead. I wonder if that "past" could lead to a "present" like the one the people on the island are currently experiencing. Maybe not exactly the same but one that's similar. Looking back at that statement I'm starting to wonder if this show has gotten too deep into my head and I'm just making stuff up now...

They should leave it open ended at seasons end for closure through a major motion picture.

Might as well after all this time.

I love Boston Rob.

The Heroes are imploding. Maybe James needs to get off the 'roids??

Here's a neat clip showing how some TV scenes aren't as real as we think. And, sure, I know special effects are used all the time, but didn't realize how much. And how seamless it really is. Used to be, you could always tell if a green screen was used. The lighting would be all wrong or something. Now it's darn near impossible to tell.

That was cool. Thanks, Deb.

[Panoptes]

Hollywood/movie making really is magic.

[romster]

Very cool video. I also didn't realize how much green screen is used. The actors have to work harder these days.

I moved your post from the music thread.

Have to agree on all counts. I never liked Stephenie all that much but James is too harsh. I think he'll be gone quickly.
