Kevin's Watch

Really? I thought it was vague enough to be meaningless. I avoided mentioning the one with a character's name in it.

Everybody Loves Raymond?

Hmmm...According to IMDB, there are still 18 episodes listed through May (IMDB listing of Episode titles up through ep 13. Ep 14-18 just have air dates, and numbers, but no titles)

www.imdb.com/title/tt0411008/episodes#season-6

Guess you're right, it's supposed to be 18 episodes. Don't know why the episode list I looked at ignored the other 5.

Where is this list of future episodes?

LostPedia is still showing 18 total episodes, with all but next weeks' future episodes shows as "TBA"

See the IMDB link 2 posts above yours.

I was looking at wikipedia, which based its list on a TV guide page on MSN. Guess it doesn't go far enough into the future to include the last episodes.

Now keep in mind that IMDB may not always be accurate for things in the future (especially when not confirmed by another source). I remember before S2 aired, Samuel L. Jackson was listed as Bernard on IMDB for S2

Eh, maybe I'm just anal about spoilers. I don't watch the previews for next week. I don't even want to know who's in the next episode. And I never visit Lostpedia.

You're right, it's sort of vague now. But it could become more of a spoiler as we approach that episode. And it lets us know the central issue of the this season (though we're starting to see that coming now).

Turns out that episode is only a few weeks away, the last 5 episodes don't have titles, and there are several after the episode title Murrin was talking about, so, you're still a compelte Spoiler Virgin for the finale

May 23rd is the last Ep, and a sunday night special, too boot. I'm going to be in Oz the last 3 eps of Lost; crap, that sucks...sorta...

Y'know, now that we've talked the tic-tac-toe game to death, I just remembered something that might be significant. Did Hurley win the tic-tac-toe game? If not, that is actually a very subtle change. Hurley has been especially lucky in games since they've been showing the different games. I don't remember how he fared at golf, but he was the pro at ping pong and horseshoes. I always thought it was tied up with his bad luck working well for him with things that didn't matter as much. That might be a change showing that his luck is changing, and the bleeding over between alternate worlds.

Just a thought.

Well, tic tac toe is hardly a game of luck though...

Except Hurley isn't unlucky, he personally is very lucky, it's those around him who suffer from his bad luck curse (He's overly lucky and to balance out the cosmic scales of luck his friends and family get the shaft). The change is he realizes he's lucky (and maybe those around him don't suffer for his luck)

He won the lottery, he's survived the island, he's lucky in the games, he got out of the restaurant before it got hit by the meteor, he tried to throw away his lottery winnings and they multiplied, he got stopped in Hummer by the cops, which saved him from being in his burning house... All the bad stuff, sure it hurts him, because he cares about those it happens to, but, it never happens directly to him.

True. I guess I'm just going by what Hurley thinks of himself throughout most of the show, rather than what you just stated.

Tic Tac Toe is possibly thematically significant, because it's a game where, if both players are thinking about what they're doing, noone ever wins.

Believe it was a tie, specifically, 'another tie,' with Miles saying 'That's a surprise.'

Yeah. If both players know how to play, every game is always a tie.

War Games had the analogy of Thermonuclear War as Tic Tac Toe; when both sides play to win (not that there's any other way), no one does.

You know, we all seem to read more into this stuff than probably exists. Perhaps they played ttt to show that Hurley doesn't win at every game.

I think this last season is running out of steam already; very disappointing. Other seasons had one boner ep once or twice a season; mostly the Kate eps. This season is having a boner every ep so far. Playing TTT to eat up a scene, geez; I think the writers are phoning this last season in.

The only interesting thing so far is the new kid on the island. Anyone mention him yet? At first I thought it was Jacob as a kid, but now I think perhaps it is a third entity, perhaps the judge of Jacob and Flock.
