I am, the show has kinda jumped the shark but I'm too far in to get off board now.

I am enjoying the show more than I ever have. Me and afk will be glued to the set.

I'm actually enjoying the direction the show has taken this season. I like the show but I've found it hugely flawed right from the beginning, so maybe the changes this season haven't been so hard for me to swallow.  It seems like they've devoted a lot less time to relationshippy matters this year, which is probably why I'd called season five my favorite so far.

So, yeah, I'm looking forward to tonight.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

What do you think of the portrayal of Sawyer?

Do you think there is a bias against showing depictions of strong male southern characters on TV?

The past couple and a half seasons have won me over.  Very excited to see what goes down tonight.

I think this season has been the best yet. It's always helpful when you have a hint of an idea of what's happening.

Well, I didn't see an entirely new framework for all the previous seasons to nestle in coming, but it certainly expands the possibilities for the final season. Seth, Horus, Osiris anyone?

I'm going to be pretty upset if this turns up being one big Biblical reference but that's what it seems to be.

As usual, I completely disagree. The writing was good and plenty of the acting was cheesy. And, check out this article, it's neat:

Unfortunately, that makes perfect sense. I've said for the last two seasons that there is no way that they are just telling a modern day Bible story... that's too easy and everybody sees it coming. It kind of looks like I was wrong and that's really disappointing.

Yeah but there's definitely some real science there. The electromagnetic whats-a-ma-call-it.

But, the island could also be Eden... I doubt it's that cut and dry.

Juliet's apparent death, like Faraday's, actually made me physically ill. I had really grown to love both of them.

And it's kind of cool seeing Ben go from supposedly all-powerful leader to a sobbing, jealous, pathetic little pawn.
