"Lost" TV Show - Currently Season 2 (US aired)


Recommended Posts

Lost has got me hooked.

The trailer for the next episode shows

The crazy lady who Syed ran into come into the camp and warn about the "Others" returning. She claims that there are 3 options, run hide or die. Scary stuff. I still think its aliens on some sort of experimental visit to earth studying human behavior.

I'm betting that the hatch is some sort of Pandora's box with the disease that got to Rousseau's team. Who knows... all I know is that I am absolutely dying to see what in the hell happens in the next two weeks!!! :bounce:

Everything is supposed to be scientifically explainable or something like that.

The same people who Ethan was with are probably gonna come looking for revenge and stuff.

First off...some spoilers about tomorrow's show regarding Charlie, Hurley and Jin...

"Charlie's story intertwines a lot more closely with Claire by the end of it. There's going to be quite a rift in the camp, with the 13 or 14 regulars we've come to know split into allegiances," Dominic Monaghan revealed. Jorge Garcia said: " I'm coming back, I think. I mean, I'm alive at the end of this season, so I assume I'm coming back. I'm not a guy who just disappears in the crowd." Jin will be on the raft.

And JJ Abrams has something to say about Season 2.

"[season 2] is very much another chapter in the story, and it's one of those things where you really don't wanna say anything, but...they've been there for 40 days, and they've been pretty reluctant, for obvious reasons, to venture out too much. If the first 40 days was about their arrival and them realizing that they're going to be there for a while, I'd say the next 40 days is more about their establishing a sense of society and of more permanence, and there are going to be specific story points that will give them very specific objectives that will be part of the overall arc of the season next year." Damon Lindelof says: "One of the really cool things, to me, is that we are going to be introducing new characters to the show. And it'll just get out who we've cast, because we're gonna start shooting the show in July. I think people's default position will be, "Oh, they're all people who we just haven't met yet," sort of in the chorus of, you know, meat socks, as we call them, the people in the background... Maybe some of these characters will come from the chorus and maybe they won't, but word will start to trickle out over the summer about who's joining the cast of Lost, and, more importantly, who's leaving the cast."

So anybody catch yesterday's episode ?

yep, it was good and yet again, another cliffhanger. they dwelved more into the history of jack, kate, and sawyer. hopefully the 2 hr season finale will at least answer the questions more about the island the others

That was one of the best ep's ever. Can't wat for next..and maybe season 2.

It has already been renewed for a season 2. (Y)

Some other news:

My cheerios look different than your cheerios! My bag of weed looks different than your bag of weed!

All baggies of heroin are going to look alike.

So whats going to happen with everyone thats on the raft? is the story still going to follow with them or are they just out of the picture for a while?

Very good ep by the way.

I hear that they are going to find something out there is in the ocean that is going to be very suprising to us loyal Lost viewers...

Yea they will probably

Continue forward and either ...

1) get attacked by a sea monster or whatever tha would cause one of the members to fall into the ocean and makes Sawyer go and help him up.

2) they continue (same scene with Sawyer but without the monster) they somehow come back to the island just by going forward

3) they find other survivors? Remember 3 people from the back of the plane should be alive.

Sawyer will probably die though... but I hope not. they can kill Michael if they want though.

Sea monster would be too predictable...and its rumored that what they find out there is surprising as hell...

Haha...nah, that would be too weird...everything in this show would have to be explained by science or pseudo science, as the producers have said.

They probably WILL find other survivors, but not in the ocean. Remember that Michelle Rodriguez (as Ana Lucia) told Jack she would be in seat 42b...a lottery number, by the way...and that in the back of the plane. Now...Rodriguez is known for playing badass chicks, so I'm pretty sure that by the end of the finale, we will see that the other side of the island has a whole new set of surviors...from the back of the plane...I can imagine it now in the last 15 minutes of the finale...

Jack: Oh my god...Ana Lucia?

Ana Lucia: Jack? Jack-no-ring? We thought you guys died!

Jack: What do you mean we?

Ana Lucia: The survivors. The tail crashed in the ocean near the island and we were able to swim to shore.

Jack: Where are they? Have you been managing ok?

Ana Lucia: Mostly near the tower next to the beach. Supplies were low but we managed to keep away from that thing and find food. It's ok everybody. He's from the flight too.

(Other tail end survivors walk in from the jungle...makeshift spears in hand due to lack of a big friggin knife box.)

Jack: Tower? Looks like we have a lot to catch up with. Who's in charge here?

Ana Lucia: You're looking at her, Jack.

bum bum bum....LOST

And just imagine what a great little storyline it would be if tough, aggressive Ana Lucia started putting the moves on Jack...making Kate ever the jealous little fugitive for Season 2. Wow...I'm way too into this show. Haha.

I was told from a friend that the big twist is that they all actually died in the plane crash and are spirits on the island trying to make peace with themselves before they leave this dimension or whatever it is that spirits do.

Don't know if it's true or not, and sorry if it's already been posted.

Hmmmm, that was my idea too. Maybe we have a mutual friend. I thought it odd how there was a lot of religious symbolism early on in the series. Plus, how each of the main characters seemed to have some sort of epiphany or make peace with themselves or their lives as they once knew it. To quote from the hymn, "I once was LOST, but now am found".

Would be a nice plot twist for a movie (Sixth Sense, anyone?) but I now I'm not so sure about it.

For the last time...

THEY ARE NOT DEAD.

THEY ARE NOT IN AN ALIEN POD UNDER STUDY

THEY ARE ON AN ACTUAL PLACE IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC.

The producers and JJ himself have said that while those concepts are interesting, they never meant for this to be a mind**** type show. The IDEA is interesting...but it really brings the whole thing to a screeching halt and as good as this show is, would you really want it to end on such a note? Hell no.

Remember guys...everything on this show is based on actual science or pseudo-science, so you will never see anything like those crazy theories above. However...those observations about religion, philosophy, etc, are spot on. This show will incorporate those themes but ONLY because this is a thematical series.

Remember what the producers said...this is a CHARACTER driven show. The gimmicks like the monster, the island, the others...are ALL to interact with the overall characterization structure. The mystery is not in what the black rock was, for instance, but what it means to the characters, and that is what makes this show so original and brilliant.

There are only 3 survivors other than the 48. Michelle Rodriguez and 2 more. Apparently they *might* have landed on the other side of the island where Jack's crew never ventured.

1st season: Survival and getting the general knowledge of what there is on the island.

2nd season: Finding every bit of detail of the island (lots of details in season 2 and lot more surprises and undiscovered places)

Anyways... On the preview for the next episode you can see that Sawyer jumps into water just after we see Jin or Michael looking at the radar monitor which seems to have picked up an object. A lot of people are saying Sawyer is jumping into the water to save someone. He might actually be going into the water to find whatever the radar picked up. The directors of Lost are really making us run around with theories. It's like that time when we thought Sayid shoots the f*ck out of Locke. This is one of the series on television that truely deserves being watched. But the problem is, after Season 2, it's going to become an annoyance since it'll probably be mostly the same thing they did last week etc... I hope they end it on Season 2. They shouldn't venture too far. Or get too greedy.

Anyways from what I know in the next episode...

{Those are not spoilers because they are actually on the previews so go check 'em out}

1) It seems that Danielle takes Claire's baby (O_O .. hmm ... maybe it's a way to lure the others? or is Danielle(16 years) gone crazy for real?)

2) We know Alex is actually a ... GIRL! (Notice Danielle saying The Others took Her)

3) The Black Rock is a ship. (Probably the one in which Danielle got to the island)

4) The ship has a skeleton or more inside ... (I think I saw some chains around it ... erm.)

5) The others have feet and face (Not sure but we'll see ...)

6) Someone said watch carefully for the Hawain shirt guy (We'll do :))

7) The monster will be seen ... (Maybe just a part of the monster but still ... I wanna see that thingy.)

8) Walt is crazy (No, seriously, Look at the kid going "Don't open the hatch, Locke. Don't." crazy stuff)

9) The junky .... what's his freaken name ... the hobbit on the island. :s ... oh yes! Charlie ... he punches Sayid (yea ... he PUNCHES Sayid in the face)

10) Sayid is flirting with a crying Shannon (Her mascara is running ... just kidding)

11) Locke or someone else ... but my bet is on Locke, He's being dragged by something and someone jumps to rescue him ... I think it's Jack (WILLY WONKA AND THE CHOCOLATAY FACTORY)

12) Sawyer jumps into the ocean (Heroic huh?)

13) Jack asks "Who brought us here?" on which Locke replies "The island" (Locke is nuts, trust me)

14) Some explosions here and there.

    • 7 Days: Windows 11 turns five, Ford made a mistake, and Starlink plans direct mobile service by Aditya Tiwari 7 Days is a weekly roundup of picks of what's been happening in the world of technology - written with a dash of humor, a hint of exasperation, and an endless supply of (black) coffee. This week's highlights include Apple's $4 billion class-action lawsuit, a smartphone with a 14,000 mAh battery, Google catching up with Anthropic, and the Steam Summer Sale 2026. Let's get started. You can check out the recent issues of the 7 Days weekly roundup. Windows 11 turns five Microsoft's Windows 11 operating system completed five years of existence on June 24 this week. According to the latest data, the controversial operating system now runs on almost 72% of Windows PCs worldwide. The launch of Windows 11 had several dramatic twists and an entire preview build leaked ahead of launch. Ford made a mistake Many would agree that one of the biggest mistakes the automobile industry made was surrendering to the giant touchscreens and removing physical buttons. However, Ford made even more. The company executives said they made a mistake by replacing human engineers with AI. Ford admitted that AI couldn't replace experienced engineers and the company is rehiring veterans to improve quality and cut recall costs. Starlink mobile service Elon Musk's SpaceX wants to use its massive constellation of satellites to power your phone's network. The company is reportedly considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage and planning to sell mobile phone plans directly to customers in the US as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. Our Features Our coffee-powered team published a platter of editorials, opinion posts, hands-on experiences, and guides. Check them out: Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026 You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried We check out the SKG PS700 Neck Massager SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 hands on Hands-on with BOOX Tappy: cute little reading accessory Hands-on with the ProtoArc EM25: Affordable ergonomic mouse that focuses on the right things Hands-on with iFlyTek AINote 2 E-Ink tablet: insanely thin and smart This week in software news Catch up on some of the latest software news updates that arrived throughout the week: Firefox 152.02: The latest browser update brought fixes for performance, translation, and cloud storage services. It addressed problems with localization, playback issues with certain MP4 files, and performance issues on websites that perform multiple encryption operations simultaneously. Ubuntu Livepatch: Canonical's zero-downtime service Livepatch arrived on Arm64 devices running Ubuntu Core 26 and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. AMD 26.6.2 driver: The new driver version for Radeon hardware owners brought FSR 4.1 upscaling tech to an entire generation of its products: the RX 7000 series. However, the 26.6.2 FSR driver flew dark clouds over users, breaking many Windows PCs and causing a yellow bang or other launch failures on Windows 10. AMD later pushed the 26.6.3 Hotfix update to fix the issues. Goodbye Notion email: It's been a little over a year since the AI-powered email client launched. The company has announced its shutdown, which will take effect on September 22, and said it doesn't see the point in maintaining a frontend email client when people are moving towards automation. Ventoy version 1.1.14: The biggest change in the Rufus alternative is an updated Secure Boot shim file to resolve the UEFI CA 2023 issue, a compatibility problem that affected Secure Boot environments on some systems. This week in hardware news Image: Valve Catch up on some of the latest software news updates that arrived throughout the week: 14,000 mAh battery: Yes, that's something that iPhone users can only dream of. But a Chinese company is reportedly developing a smartphone with a 14,000mAh battery. If it ever sees daylight, it would be the largest battery ever on a smartphone, possibly offering a week of backup on a single charge. Steam Machine prices: Valve finally confirmed the Steam Machine's pricing. Starting at $1,049 for the 512GB option, storage and the included controller are the biggest differences among the four variants presented. Xbox just got more expensive: Rising costs of storage and memory prompted Microsoft to raise prices. Xbox Series X|S models wth 512GB storage will cost $100 extra, and 1TB models will cost $150 extra. However, the Redmond giant discounted the 2TB models. New NVIDIA supercomputers: The company announced plans to deploy 35 high-performance (HPC) AI supercomputers across Europe this year, primarily at national supercomputer centers, AI factories, and research institutes. Fast fast memory: Samsung built the UFS 5.0 storage solution, which pushes the data transfer speeds to 10.8 GB/s on mobile devices. It can open doors for faster local AI performance, which otherwise doesn't look promising under the current scenario. Custom chips for TikTok: Qualcomm is reportedly in talks with ByteDance to build custom video chips optimized for its massive data center workloads. ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. OpenAI Jalapeño: The AI giant announced its first custom-designed AI chip developed in partnership with Broadcom. Jalapeño is designed specifically for large language model inference and is the first product from a multi-generation compute platform being developed by OpenAI. Galaxy A27 5G: The new mid-range smartphone from Samsung arrived with a platter of updates over A25 5G, including a 120Hz refresh rate, Infinity-O punch-hole camera design, expanded AI features, and more. Qualcomm takes on NVIDIA: The chipmaker baked the new Dragonfly CPU, High Bandwidth Compute technology, and AI chips to challenge NVIDIA in the AI data center market. Qualcomm said its new lineup improved per-watt performance, token throughput, and total cost of ownership for AI data centers. IBM goes sub-1nm: The company reached a semiconductor milestone by announcing the world's first sub-1-nanometer chip technology, based on a 0.7nm (7-angstrom) node. It can pack nearly 100 billion transistors onto a chip the size of a fingernail. This week in Google News Image: Google Catch up on some of the latest Google news updates that arrived throughout the week: What to expect from the Pixel 11 series: The upcoming lineup is expected to feature four different variants and a price hike due to the global memory shortage. Read our detailed coverage to know about the expected Pixel 11 specs. Stopping Google: The Free Software Foundation Europe urged the European Commission to stop Google from silently reinstalling AI models and requiring registration. Users should be able to fully uninstall AI-based features from Android devices and access interoperability features. Chasing Anthropic: The Claude-maker is making new strides every day in the AI world, but the search giant is struggling to catch up. Google is said to be reshuffling its AI coding "strike team" it created roughly about two months ago, turning it into a broader model-training group amid talent losses at DeepMind. New Google Play billing: Google has faced a long legal battle with Epic Games, and the search giant is rolling out a redesigned Play Store billing and fee structure. Available in the US, UK, and the European Economic Area, it will take effect on June 30. Error-free Sheets? A new feature in Google Sheets allows Gemini to inspect formula errors and apply corrections directly in the spreadsheet. Google said the new feature can handle pretty much everything from basic arithmetic to very complex calculations. Breeze through airports: Google Wallet became the first digital wallet to integrate with TSA PreCheck Touchless ID, a program that enables travelers to move through airport security checkpoints using facial recognition instead of a physical ID or boarding pass. Built-in computer control: Gemini 3.5 Flash got a built-in tool called Computer Use, which allows developers to build agents that navigate browsers, mobile interfaces, and desktop applications. Google Finance: The redesigned platform is now out of beta. Google has added several new features, including portfolio tracking, scheduled market briefings, and a dedicated Android app. An iOS app is planned for later in 2026. This week in Apple News Image: Apple Catch up on some of the latest Apple news updates that arrived throughout the week: Trade secrets reportedly exposed: Apple's manufacturing partner in India, Tata Electronics, confirmed a cybersecurity attack on its systems that may have exposed trade secrets of Apple and Tesla. Hackers reportedly stole up to 630 GB of data and posted up to 200,000 files on the dark web. Grab your payout: Apple is facing a class-action lawsuit in the UK and might end up paying $4 billion (£3 billion) if it loses. The iPhone-maker has been accused of trapping users in iCloud by restricting rivals from fully accessing iOS. The tribunal recently set a full trial date for October 2028. iOS 27 Beta 2: Apple's latest iPhone update is moving forward, and a new beta was pushed this week. While iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers pushed several bug fixes across the system, the AirPort Utility was deprecated; it's no longer available to new users. Price hike: Just like others, Apple has raised prices of several MacBook and iPad models, including the MacBook Neo, which now starts at $699. This comes after reports that this year's iPhone will also become expensive. Second-gen iPhone Fold: While the world is desperate to see Apple's foldable iPhone, leakers have started to talk about its second generation. Apple is expected to launch a successor in Fall 2027, featuring a wider folding display while reusing the same screen found in the first generation. The search for memory: Apple is reportedly looking at blacklisted Chinese companies amid rising memory chip prices. The company is seeking clearance from the Trump administration to purchase memory from ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT). This week in Meta news Image: Meta Catch up on some of the latest Meta, WhatsApp, and Instagram updates that arrived throughout the week: WhatsApp gets a new final boss: Mark Zuckerberg announced that CRED's Kunal Shah will become the next global head of WhatsApp, as Will Cathcart steps down and moves to a new role at Meta. The social media giant invested money in CRED through a Series H funding round. AI glasses in 26 styles: A new line of Meta Glasses launched in partnership with EssilorLuxottica. Starting at $299, it comes in more than two dozen styles across different colors, lenses, and frames. More ways to doomscroll: Instagram for TV is now available on Samsung smart TVs launched in 2020 and later years. The company also announced that it's testing several new features on Instagram for TV, bringing it closer to YouTube and Netflix. This week in AI news Image: Microsoft Catch up on the latest artificial intelligence news updates that arrived throughout the week: Water-saving data center: Microsoft is building a gas-powered AI data center with a capacity of 2 gigawatts. The company will deploy a closed-loop cooling system, saying that its total lifecycle water use will be "only a fraction of that consumed annually by a typical fast-food restaurant.” OpenAI beats Claude Mythos: GPT-5.5-Cyber got a limited release for verified defenders. It scored 85.6% on CyberGym, compared with 81.8% for GPT-5.5 and 83.8% for Claude Mythos 5. The AI giant also announced a limited preview of its new GPT-5.6 model series, whose flagship model, GPT-5.6 Sol, is targeted at demanding reasoning and agentic workloads. Proceed with caution: The Trump administration instructed OpenAI to limit the distribution of GPT-5.6 to a small group of government-approved partners rather than the general public, as has happened in the past. Claude Tag: Anthropic launched its new AI teammate for Slack, enabling teams to delegate tasks to Claude directly within Slack channels. What makes it different is that it's designed to operate as a shared assistant for an entire team rather than a single user. Challenging US dominance: The UK government has funded £60 million ($70 million) to Oxford and UCL to keep the country in the AI race by building open-source, low-hardware alternatives. The two organizations will share the money over six years. Paying for AI development: One cost is the loss of human jobs. Oracle laid off about 21,000 employees (13% of its workforce) amid increasing AI adoption. The software giant said that AI advancement and adoption "may continue to result in reductions to our workforce." GitHub strips features: It removed the ability to manually detect an AI model from its Copilot Free and Student plans. In other words, its automatic routing system is the only way to choose a model. Are you a copycat? Anthropic accused Alibaba of creating about 25,000 fraudulent accounts to copy Claude's capabilities at scale. It told US lawmakers that operators linked to Alibaba generated 28.8 million exchanges with Claude between April 22 and June 5, 2026. Reserve my memory: The semiconductor company Micron revealed that AI companies are spending billions to lock up its memory years in advance. Its customers have locked in $22 billion worth of memory supply commitments. Another AI battle: A publisher group that collectively owns 400 newspapers sued OpenAI and Microsoft for scraping their content to build AI chatbots such as ChatGPT and Copilot without compensation. Anthropic AI ban: The US government partially reversed the Anthropic AI ban, allowing it to restore Claude Mythos 5. However, it can only be deployed for a limited set of US organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. This week in Microsoft News In some of the hottest stories of the week: Windows 10 quietly gained a year of support and updates, Windows 11 KB5095093 released with a long list of features, and Windows 11 26H2 is finally getting the ability to disable web search results in Windows 11 Search. You can check out Taras's freshly baked Microsoft Weekly roundup to catch up on all the interesting stories this week. This week in science news Image by Pascal Küffer via Pexels Catch up on some of the latest science and out-of-this-world updates that arrived throughout the week: 13 billion-year-old secret: Scientists found that the universe's first molecule (helium hyride) reacted with hydrogen much faster in cold temperatures than previously believed. It's a new breakthrough that changes our understanding of early star formation. Cosmic Living Fossil: Astronomers found CR3, a surprisingly pristine 11.5-billion-year-old galaxy dubbed a "living fossil." It suggests the universe's first generation of stars formed much later than previously assumed. Einstein's 100-year-old theory: Thanks to relativity, researchers calculated that clocks on Mars tick 477 microseconds faster per day than on Earth. This minute gravitational difference is crucial for synchronizing future interplanetary space missions. Don't panic: NASA's James Webb Telescope finally eliminated the threat of asteroid 2024 YR4 striking the moon in 2032. The rocky giant will give us a safe fly-by without causing any harm. This week in gaming? The latest issue of Pulasthi's Weekend PC Game Deals curates several exciting games on sale this week. RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought have replaced the old titles in this week's Epic Games Store giveaway. For Xbox Free Play Days, the new titles include House Flipper 2, Blades of Fire, and Assetto Corsa Competizione. Steam Summer Sale 2026 kicked off with discounts for everything from the newest games and retro gems to all sorts of DLC packs, until July 9. Meanwhile, NVIDIA GeForce NOW added support for several new titles, including Dark Scrolls, SAND: Raiders of Sophie, and EMPULSE. That said, here are some more stories from the gaming world: Age of Empires Mobile comes to PC, here's how to carry over progress from your phone Xbox Insiders get Xbox 360 achievements and Gamertag character upgrades Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details Sony announces Bungie layoffs that will affect "significant number of employees" From the review corner This week, Steven published a review of the TerraMaster F4-425 Pro AI-powered NAS, featuring an all-metal exterior on the lines of the four-bay F4-425 series. Powered by the octa-core Intel Core N350, the TerraMaster F4-425 Pro is highly energy-efficient, operates quietly, and offers three M.2 slots. On the flip side, OpenClaw support requires removing security hardening (SPC), AI requires a paid subscription, the software feels like a beta, and the rubber feet constantly come unstuck. ZimaBoard 2 1664 Starter Kit Another NAS setup reviewed this week is the ZimaBoard 2 by IceWhale Technology. It comes in a small footprint with great modern hardware through a combo of Intel N150 and DDR5 memory support. On the downside, the memory is not upgradeable, ZimaOS is a bit barebones, factory reset requires USB flashing, and there is no automatic backup via the mobile app. Synology's BeeCamera software Christopher wrote his review of the software that powers BeeCamera Plus and said "the BeeCamera app is a great way to add private home monitoring to your network but there are some limitations." It's free with an easy setup process, fast response time, and good AI and detection features. However, there is no desktop version; it only works with Synology cameras, some configurations are difficult to set up on a phone, and it lacks the features of the surveillance station. More price drops! We got you covered with some hot tech deals all week. For some reason, if you missed out on a great discount, here is a summary of some recent deals that are still alive: Onkyo Dolby Atmos AV receivers are really solid deals 4TB TEAMGROUP MP44Q, 2TB T-Force G50, and 2TB WD My Passport SSDs drop to great prices Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now The best controller for XBOX and PC is down to the lowest price Limited time Prime Day deal cuts price of this Hisense 65" 4K smart TV in half To view all of our recent deals, click here.
