it can't be just me!

The ep was... an episode?

I still don't like Juliet, PTB.

I mean, even after her big "woe is me, everyone with a heart will love me after they see this" episode. (Though, they already tried that last season with the sister episode too.) I was just... meh. And I still don't get why everyone loves her so much, no offense. Feel free to explain. I'm a cold-hearted bitch, what?

And I hate Locke more with each episode.

And honestly? I adore Michael Emerson, but Ben is so over the top now it's just ridiculous. Someone tally up a list of shit he's done/has been behind/crazy things he's said/lies possible truths he's told/etc.etc.etc. and prove my point?

And the whole Charlotte knocks Kate out for her own sake thing is utter bullshit. And where does this poisonous gas leak out? Because correct me if I'm wrong, but it's a big mother of an island! How are they gonna poison everybody on the entire island? Seriously? (Maybe I missed something.)

*sigh*

I loved last week. Loved. Now I just want to punch a kitten.

I think I'm just going to have to let people tell me whether or not I'll like the ep before I subject myself to it. Yes, I said subject.

And finally, Sawyer. Please go kill Ben and Locke and declare yourself king of Otherville (Eggtown?) and take Claire as your queen? Please?

Sometimes I think it comes down to our moods and tolerance level for certain bad habits of the Lost writers when we sit down and watch. Our feelings for certain characters and styles of storytelling and our expectations of things. For example, I was LIVID at "Expose" (Nikki and Paulo's backstory) because I was taking it seriously. From the start, I had tried to support the writers in slipping the newbies in. Other people, though, who had been annoyed with the whole storyline all season, who thought it was preposterous anyway, watched the ep like it was self-consciously being absurd and funny. Looking back on it that way, I guess maybe it was. But, still, I was cranky. So cranky. I'll maybe always hate the ep.

I read your response to the ep and I was sorta shocked cause I often agree with you on fandom things.

I'm a flaky mofo. And I was wearing some pretty thick Jacket goggles. I'm easily distracted by the Daniel, too. Also, I'm apparently off lately, given my mixed reaction to the Desmond ep, which people, I think, expected me to SQUEE over since I'm a Des girl. *shrugs* I dunno.

Wish I could get into Jacket. *sigh* Things would be easier for sure. I just need to be able to get into Juliet first though. Then maybe we'll talk about pairings that include her, lol.
