"'LOST': 6 days to go!"

Tweet By Bry Schulz

I'm so excited for the sixth season of “LOST” to start I can hardly contain myself! Every time I see any “LOST” promos on TV or posted on Facebook or whatever I have to stop what I'm doing immediately to watch. Unfortunately those sneaks over at ABC have not let any season six footage out. It's genius really. I'm so on the edge of my seat with anticipation I can hardly think straight. Every second of season six will be a surprise now because the producers of “LOST” decided not to show anything. Usually you see promos and commercials and can see where things are going but not this time. "The suspense is killing me, I hope it'll last!" - Val Kilmer, “Real Genius.”



So, what do we do for the next six days but sit around rocking while clutching our knees to our chests? I have a few ideas. One, we can talk about what we know and what we hope to know. Two, we can watch every available “LOST” DVD repeatedly; scanning for things we may have missed the first 100 times we watched them. Three, we can let each other know when a new viral video promoting “LOST” has been leaked. I say we take part in these steps regularly until next week; otherwise we may not be able to function.

Step one:

A) What we know: We know Juliet blew up the H-bomb. We know Sayid is injured badly. We know Jack wants Kate back. We know Sawyer is in love with Juliet. We know Locke is "dead." We know there's an impostor walking around looking a lot like Locke. We know Jacob has been stabbed/killed by Ben.

B) What we want to know: What happened after the H-bomb went boom. (IE: is Sayid injured/uninjured? Does time reset itself allowing Jack to get Kate back, Sawyer to be with Juliet?) What will happen to Locke and impostor Locke. Is the man in black good or bad? Is Jacob good or bad? Is Jacob dead at Ben's hands? Uh, so much to ponder. I can't even guess. I don't even want to guess. I'd be wrong!



Step two:

I've been re-watching season five on DVD. So far I have not noticed anything new. I think I did a pretty serious job over-analyzing every second of it when it aired last year. But I will stick with it in the off chance that something will pop up that solves every mystery for me. If that happens I'll be sure to write a spoiler “LOST” article for you.

Step three:

Together search the net for new “LOST” promos. I have one. A friend posted this on her Facebook. It's a fan made video using past “LOST” footage. It's very good. It gave me goose bumps in fact.

Check it out on YouTube here:



I had almost forgotten about Sayid shooting little Ben. That reminds me of my favorite “LOST” quote from last season. "A 12 year old Ben Linus just gave me a chicken salad sandwich. How do you think I'm doing?" - Sayid.

I hope we can all make it through the next few days in one piece. I know it's going to be difficult.
