Was it just me or were there more commercials than usual??

Opening scene was jaw dropping. Awesome. Went down from there, and I started losing interest in some scenes. I was hoping it would rock me but it didn't.

I want more and it's back to where they're teasing us with all questions and no answers.

Yeah, it really bugged me tonight. I wonder how long the series can go on for. They should just go all out this year and make it incredible with answers at every turn. Instead, I am worried they are going to spend half the time on commercials and the other half of the time on useless flashbacks.

Crap, I missed the opneing scene. What was it?

RockyBalboa · 10-05-2006, 08:03 AM

A million commercials and on top of that it was dull and boring. Not a good way to kick off their 3rd Season.

**SPOILER**

The Others dressed nicely looking civilized. The blonde girl with a Stephen King book. Walking around like it's a nice community. Grass nicely trimmed, sidewalks, houses. They look up in the sky and see a plane crashing. Ben (was that his name? wasn't sure if i caught it right--the old Henry) sees it and shouts instructions to the other others to hurry to where the two pieces of the plane would be crashing to see if there are survivors, infiltrate, and bring him lists in three days.

Thanks. That is rarther important and is exactly what i missed.

My wife didn't like last noght's episode at all and officially quit on the show. I, OTOH, enjoyed it and look forward to more.

The episode was a slight disappointment. The main thing I took away from it was the Others' effort to break down Jack psychologically, since they obviously knew him to be the leader. And the weird experimental zoo explains the polar bear and shark.

Jay you need a DVR/Tivo. Skip the commercials.

UteStar · 10-05-2006, 05:45 PM

I know people don't, but I really enjoy the flashbacks. I think this episode told us a lot about things--such as the Others living rather normal lives, it appeared, before the plane crash.

It interests me to see these characters shown before the plane crash. Most shows don't get into its characters lives so that is a welcomed change. I am in no huge rush to get big answers, I'm just enjoying the ride.

My Dish DVR's out. Remember my post last week?

I think I'll switch to DirectTV.
