Technically, you can’t say that August 4th is “No Megan Fox Day” on that day to promote it or you violate the rules of the ban. Guess we’ll have to live.

We can do with a “No Jon and Fucking Kate plus whatever” ban for the rest of the year. Why they are so popular is beyond us…

ABC and Hulu have finally landed in bed together to our enjoyment.  ABC did a good job at streaming HD quality episodes of “LOST” on their end but there’s just something easy about HULU. Seasons 1 & 5 are currently online at HULU to watch and help us get our Evangeline Lilly fix.

Get caught up with “LOST” again with the Season 1 Pilot episode. That’s the good one. Be sure to also catch up on the whole season before the last season begins airing at the end of the year and we all find out that the whole thing is a dream and we cut to Patrick Duffy in the shower even though he’s been shot and supposed to be dead.

Evangeline Lilly Lost Kate

The LOST panel at Comic Con dropped a few fun videos for us to digest while we wait for the final season. This first one centers around an “America’s Most Wanted” episode about the criminal career of Kate Austin [Evangeline Lilly]. The quality is not so great but well worth the look for LOST fans.

Lost Cast Season 5

We’re glad LOST is back! It was starting to get boring with all these shows with closure and linear scripting. (Warning: Spoilers Below)

Being a 2-part premier we got a full dose of LOST to get us excited once again.  Plus, as you all know, we got our weekly fix of Evangeline Lilly so all is good.

It seems so long since last season and we’re glad that LOST is showing strong signs of being back on track. Whatever track that may be. The new storyline of flash forwards and time travel is highlighted in the opening scene with Willie Nelson singing “Shotgun Willie” and a record skipping.  Great foreshadowing and kudos for a good song.

The characters of LOST (both on the island and off) are intertwined in destiny and the Oceanic 6 must return to the island for the survivors on the island to live.   It’s almost impossible to try to recap a show like LOST and Season 5 turns up the confusion dials to 11 so don’t expect it to let up anytime soon this season. Just go to ABC.com and catch up.  They have all the episodes there in a nice HD theater you can watch online and some of the more important ones are enhanced with clues and explanations.

The new storyline of time travel is very nicely embraced by LOST’s writers and we have a headache trying to sort it all out. Here are our 10 Favorite Moments for the Season 5 premier(Warning: Spoilers Below)

Sayid and Hurley

1.Sayid is still a bad-ass: Death by Dishwasher!

Best use of an appliance for a murder weapon and second best knife death in the season. In a fight with some bad dudes, Sayid throws one man over the railing of a second floor apartment and fights with the another until throwing that dude onto the dishwasher rack full of knives.

We just love a good knife fight!

Dr. Candle

2.The return of Dr. Candle.

Shooting a training video for the Dharma stations, Dr. Marvin Candle (real name Dr. Chang) is interrupted by a worker and Candle gets pissed.

Don’t mess with the talent!

Ana Lucia returns

3. The return of Ana Lucia!
One of, if not THE, most despised characters from the LOST world popped back up for a cameo.  When Hurley is on the run he gets pulled over and talks with a cop. But this cop is dead. Or is she?  Is it a hallucination of Hurley’s mental illness or the island playing tricks again?

Who knows….but the “Libby says Hi” quip was nice.

We were never big fans of Ana but we didn’t hate her like some people

Dave’s not home, man

4. Cheech is back, watches bad TV
Hurley’s dad makes a caviar sandwich and is watching the ill-fated “Exposé”, a show that the producers tried to work into Season 3 with what many consider the lowest point of the series.

The episode “EXPOSE” forced the unpopular Nikki and Paulo characters onto us but it was a nice touch by the producers to work back in, like Ana Lucia, something they know was not very well accepted by LOST fans.

Nice shirt, dude

5. Hurley is full of  shih-tzu.
Looking for a change of clothes, Hugo grabs a yellow “I (Heart) My Shih-tzu” shirt.   Oddly enough, they had his size.

We would have accepted here also a mu-umu-u or a 80’s movie reference shirt.

One suggestion is “Back to the Future.” We didn’t see an OUTATIME reference anywhere in this episode…

Instant Karma

6. Karma’s a bitch
Locke gets shot in the leg (by Ethan!) and is attended to the never-aging Richard Alpert with his youthful looks and permanent eyeliner.

Locke said, “It was Ethan that shot me!” and Alpert states, “Well, what comes around, goes around.”

Nice.

Don’t Talk Back!

7.  Sawyer bitch-slaps Faraday
Trying to explain why he doesn’t have time to explain the time-travel mumbo-jumbo, Sawyer doesn’t punch the scientist. He bitch-slaps him.

Bonus: Sawyer telling Charlotte Lewis “Shut it, Ginger. Or you’ll get one, too”

He’s Just Resting His Eyes

8. Really. You think he’s dead?
Even with Locke in a coffin and even after Alpert tells him he must return to the real world to die, we somehow doubt that Locke is dead.  It’s great character development to make someone like Locke so untrustworthy.

We believe Locke is dead as much as we believe that Ben is telling the truth.  Hurley believes in Ben so little he gets arrested rather than go with Ben.

Daniel Faraday

9. Daniel Faraday
He might just turn out to be an interesting character after all. Not just a whiny scientist but we get a look at someone who might just have mastered the art of time travel and is willing to break the rules to save someone he loves, Charlotte.

And how often can we link to a fan site for String Theory and sound like we know what we’re talking about.

Now this is a knife!

10. Locke brings back the knife

The best knife killing in the show, Locke reappears at the end with his bad-ass hunting knife to kill a soldier followed by a nice shot of Locke pulling the bloody knife out of the dead guy’s chest to show us he hasn’t lost his touch.

   I love this show…I can’t seem to stop watching. I need to know what is going to happen next. I am envious of the writers I wish my mind worked that way.

      It’s more than a little addictive, isn’t it. Check out the writings of Brian K. Vaughan for so more interesting stuff. He’s the new influential writer with them (started near the end of Season 3) and his graphic novels are starting to be adapted into movies like Y: The Last Man.

Lost Returns Wednesday January 21st

The time is growing near…LOST is set to return next Wednesday, January 21st on ABC.  That means we get our weekly fix of  Evangeline Lilly!

Evangeline Lilly Lost

Open up the world of “Lost” like you’ve never known before with Lost 2.0 premiering on the G4 Network in September. Trust us, you’re gonna need it. Season 5 will not start until the new year so with the Primetime Fall season creeping up on us in the bushes there’s plenty of time to get caught up on the first season of “Lost.”

G4 will also air episodes of “Heroes” this September so be sure to get your DVR’s memory cleaned out to make room.

Now of course we just wouldn’t be Dave and Thomas if we didn’t give a little notice to one of our favorite actresses, Evangeline Lilly. When we watch the pilot of “Lost” and saw this:

…and we were hooked.

Of course we were also excited to see this character (for totally different reasons!):

The reasoning behind this is that we’re big fans of Terry O’Quinn since his “Millennium” days. At the time we heard about “Lost” all we knew was it was from the dude who did “Alias” and the biggest stars were a hobbit and a dude from “Party of Five.” When we saw O’Quinn in the mix we were highly interested. Thankfully, he never bathed in a bra in the surf…

Granted we’d probably like “Lost” without Kate but who wants to play those odds. And now a little gallery/tribute to Evangeline Lilly!
