Lost 5x03 Jughead - review

[janie_tangerine]

Oh-my-God and WTF indeed.

Team OMG WE STILL NEED TO GO BACK!!!

1. Well, I missed Hurley and Sun, but I could do with a Kate-less episode. And I'm not missing Jack and Sayid because I just know they spent this episode making out in the infirmary, or so I decided. -nods-

2. NO BEN! AN EPISODE WITHOUT BEN! *sighs* Oh, thanks. I had enough.

Team Latin is teh awesome

3. So, the Others speak Latin?

Oh, the CRACK I'm writing out of this. Why, I studied Latin for five years in high school, I know what I'm doing. Oh God. I was cracking up.

3b. That said, Juliet actually has a surprisingly good accent. Young!Widmore couldn't speak it for the life of his and blondie wasn't too bad at it. Now I want Richard speaking Latin.

3c. Or Juliet and Sawyer can have Latin lessons. Anyway, I totally loved Juliet here.

3d. Or better, next week on Craphole Island: Juliet gives Latin lessons in between flashes.

4. However, Sawyer -> ♥. He didn't have much to do but really, I just love the guy when he's all snarky and teams up with Juliet.

5. Argh, Looocke. Be nicer. *sigh* Even if you're interesting again. Not that you've got me back in your graces. And anyway, Sawyer crashed with you and you've been the Others' leader for about five minutes. PRIORITIES, John. Priorities.

5d. SOMEBODY GO PUSH THAT PLANE OFF THAT CLIFF!

6. Where did I see young!Widmore anyway?

7. So, I call that Widmore wanted to become the leader, maybe he was even doing it, then Ben comes along and byeee, Charles.

8. RICHARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh God. I'm seriously developing a Richard crush here. I loved his conversation with Locke and the fact that he's level-headed and just, well, he's a good character indeed. Why the hell did he ever let Ben become the leader?

Team please hope that Daniel never tells you he loves you

9. I love Miles. Seriously. He's just so great. I want him and Sawyer to have a spinoff.

10. Aw, Daniel. I mean, I like that we found out he isn't as cute-likeable-squishable as he seems but it just makes him more interesting.

11. Poor Charlotte. I guess that being in love with Daniel equals having sex with Sayid, except that at least with Sayid you HAVE SEX.

12. The ending was... aw. Oh Daniel. I seriously hope she survives.

13. The bomb thing was interesting but I don't have an idea how they're playing it out. I sure as hell hope it doesn't have to blow up in the present.

Team we like to dress in blue

14. Baby birth scenes -> boring. But at least this one was done... meh, half-right. I mean, it was plausible.

14b. Oh, Des, you really can't renounce wearing shirts that show all of your chest? Not that I complain, even if the colors completely clashed with everything else you were wearing. But mm, when he was going around screaming for the doctor it was kinda awesome.

15. I love that the boat is blue and they all wear blue. But Des, red scarf and blue shirt? Seriously?

16. And then they sold me on the baby when they said he was named Charlie. I mean. Finally. Aw, I so hope they don't get screwed up.

17. I loved Penny being righteously pissed off at Des. I love him but well, I can't expect her to stand everything just like that. Well done. And aw, she's coming too! God, please, someone tell me that nothing happens.

18. Also because 'I'm not ever going back?'. Ah, Des, I predict you're wrong.

19. The Oxford part was great and I also like the Widmore meeting, even if I think he gave in too easily. Well, Widmore was and is a dick I guess.

20. I think it's safe to say that Mrs. Hawking -> Dan's mom at this point.

21. Not related, but will someone please explain me WHAT are they going to do with all of these kids? Because apart from Clementine who will have to turn up sometime, we have Walt, Aaron, Ji Yeon and version 2.0!Charlie. Are they bringing them to the island? Are they being left behind? Will we have some island kindergarten then (I surely hope not)? I mean, when you have kids you can't just go and be all 'oh, fine, I'm going back and staying there.'

22. Random thing: we wants Jin back. Thanks so much.

23. Overall: I really, really liked it. Good episode, kept you interested, had a lot of good moments, I'm liking what they're doing with Desmond even if HI, WHERE THE HECK IS CLAIRE AND WHY DOESN'T ANYONE MENTION HER (not that I care about Claire, it's a matter of principle here) and I seriously, seriously hope Charlotte isn't going. Blah. I mean, she didn't even have sex, this is cheating. *scowls*

But oh, show, you fuck with my head and I'm confused but I still love you so.

I agree, the spinoff could work, as a comedy type thing. I also agree we need more Sayid, and how cute was he in a coma? Desmond- I really loved him in this ep, and the baby and Penny, and trying to play hero again, but why did he look so old? Locke-I am starting to like Locke again, but not saving Daniel? Oh Locke, you are selfish, but your mad skills make you awesome. Daniel-Oh Dan! Hes like so akward and sweet, and I bet he has never even had sex, and he confesses his Love for Charlotte, and she kinda tells him not too, but he tells her to her face and then he has to leave. I was so afarid they they were gonna kill him, but he is alive, thanks in part to Sawyer. That Miltary chick is crazy. Ok, when Dan comes back and he runs over to Charlotte and is cutting her ropes free, and touching her and asking her if she is ok, and she is touching him back, and grinning, well it was sweet in an innocent akward geeky way. Then Miles has to try and ruin the momunment and he was so funny, even if he did steal Dan's thunder. Ok, so then I am sure they were gonna kiss, and Charlotte pushed dan away, I guess she know what was happening? You don't wanna bleed all over the hot phyisit you are kissing, for the first time! Then when she falls, and the look on Dan's face is so heartbreaking, I started to cry. Awwww, when he was holding her and crying, and whispering to her, well not a bad way to die, but I love her. I love him. They are the best couple behind Sawyer/Kate, Des/Penny, and Pb and J. If she dies, and it looks like she may but not for a few eps at least, then I think maybe this will cause Dan to go darkside. I hope they have sex first at least/ : ) I also hope she gets a good death scene and we get plenty of Dan angst, and some comfort from Sayer. Ok, everyone can tell I am a HUGE Dan/Charlotte fan, so there you have it. Can't wait for next weeks.
