Is it just me or does the smoke monster look whiter this season? It seems almost grey now, but in the beginning it was pitch black. Maybe there's two smoke monsters, Jacob and fake locke.

Yeah you're correct. Seasons 1,2 and 3 it was pitch black and Seasons 4,5,6 its a much lighter.

What I am wondering is why Smokey was intimidated by Eko for a couple times, then killed him the 3rd time?

Anyone have an answer to this?

Was the 1st two times it was not Eko's time to die for some reason?

Or was it Eko had NO fear the 1st two times, but had fear for the time he was killed?

Has fear something to do with it?

No idea. We may never know the answer to that one, unless Eko comes back in a future episode. My guess is, MIB wasn't done with him then, and needed him in some sort of way.

I personally think Eko was going to be the original body that the writers would use to reveal Smokey as some sort of shapeshifter. It would have made more sense for Smokey's final body to be a black man, and would have played more on the white/black symbolism between Jacob/MIB and throughout the show in general. From lostpedia:

Damon Lindelof stated that Eko's story arc was originally supposed to last 4 seasons however due to Adewale's dislike of living in Hawaii he was killed off after a little over one season

I think the reason Smokey killed him instead was because he realised he could no longer manipulate him, as Eko didn't believe he had sinned and Smokey planned on using his sins/need to repent as a way of maniuplating him to his final goal of helping him kill Jacob (Eko had killed a fair few people in his past). Instead Smokey used Ben as the guy to kill Jacob.

Latest Season 6 Spoilers via Paley Center Festival

1. Jack's baby momma (mother of David Shephard in the flash-sideways world) IS somebody we've met before. Juliet? Kate? Sara? Hmm...

2. We probably will see Walt again. "[Malcolm David Kelley] absolutely would still be on the show," Carlton Cuse said, "but the actor aged." Damon Lindelof: "We are working on a way to bring Walt back before Lost is all said and done."

3. Damon: "Ilana and Richard will say things to each other and about each other in the future."

8. Vincent will be back.

9. The finale is being written right now. Episode 15 was just shot this week in Hawaii.

11. Will we find out if there really was a bird on the island that said "Hurley" as it flew by? "That is on our list of things to explain."

12. When asked if we'll find out what happened to Annie, Ben's childhood sweetheart, Carlton says "We don't want to say. Probably not."

14. There will be more for Charlie fans.

15. Alan Dale aka Charles Widmore will return.

Great stuff there! Glad to see the bird might be answered, but disappointed about how they answered the Annie question, they said she was a very important character in the show..

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers by Karthik Mudaliar SpaceX reportedly wants to sell mobile phone plans directly to consumers in the United States as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. According to a report from the Financial Times, SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell discussed the plan with investors during the company’s recent IPO roadshow. The company is also said to be considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage. The plan is quite different from how Starlink currently operates in the U.S. mobile market. SpaceX already provides satellite connectivity for T-Mobile’s T-Satellite service, but T-Mobile remains responsible for the subscription, billing, and customer support. A Starlink-branded mobile service would give SpaceX control of the customer relationship instead. It could also turn the company from a partner of traditional mobile operators into a direct competitor. T-Mobile also began testing its Starlink-powered satellite service in early 2025. The beta was initially limited to text messaging and was also available to some AT&T and Verizon customers. The service has since expanded to support limited data access through selected apps, including WhatsApp, Google Maps, AccuWeather, and AllTrails. It is designed to provide a connection in areas where normal cell towers are unavailable, rather than replace a conventional mobile network. However, if SpaceX actually has a plan to serve nationwide, it needs to do more than just satellite networks and actually support on-ground operations. It can also partner up with existing carriers and become a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With that said, SpaceX has already spent heavily to support its mobile ambitions. Just last year, the company agreed to acquire wireless spectrum licences from EchoStar in deals worth a combined $19.6 billion. EchoStar's spectrum includes AWS-4, H-Block, and AWS-3 frequencies that could be used for both satellite and terrestrial communications. According to a SpaceX securities filing, the Federal Communications Commission approved the transaction in May 2026, although it is not expected to close until late 2027. There's no official statement by SpaceX for now. Pricing, availability, and other details remain unknown. Source: Financial Times
