I thought they were both average. Some interesting stuff though and hopefully answers are going to be the flavour of the season rather than endless mysteries. I'd give the two of them a B rating. Nothing will ever touch S2's premiere but I was hoping...
Even if I'm not massivley overwhelmed yet I'm still going to be hooked to this shit and waiting for every episode like a hungry hippo MUNCHES BALLS.
Looks like they're going to go with the Novikov self-consistency principle when it comes to time travel. It's a refreshing change to most sci-fi time travel that is based around changing things. Although I'm not sure how far they're going to go with this since obviously things have changed due to time travel (Desmond but he's special)
Speaking of sci-fi they're not being shy anymore are they. OK, so Lost has always skirted heavily with science fiction as a major premise but they're really just going for it now and are not holding back one bit. We have fully arrived in science fiction territory. Not a problem for us seasoned veterans who live and breath this stuff but I wonder how the ratings will reflect this. Lost is exceptionally difficult to follow at times. Even if you have followed the show from the start It's almost mandatory to read up on the show at least a bit (Lostpedia I love you) to really keep sharp on everything that's going on.
Kate is still as unlikable as ever. Locke is still a total badass. Ben is still just super fucking awesome and makes every scene he is in riveting. And Faraday might have just become my new favourite character.
Now we have to wait a week for the next episode.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
