the awesome evil dude from Carnival show up in Sayid's flashback

You mean CLANCY FUCKING BROWN!!!!  Jesus, that was awesome...

also, the countdown getting past zero, did anybody else freak out?  I mean I knew they couldn't just let it go, but one the heiroglyphic things started showing up, I was really losing it.

Great episode.

Loved the episode... but hated that they keep teasing on everything and there absolutely NO answers... thats the good thing about watching a show on DVD once its out... you can jump to the next episode, and the next...

Anyone notice that the army guy who asked Sayid if he had a wife and kids was Kate's dad?  It was a picture of her that he was looking at in the truck.

More trivia:

The Other was named Henry Gale, same name as Dorothy's uncle in Wizard Of Oz. And was in a hot air balloon that The Wizard was going to take Dorothy home in.

So, what... no review from mod telling us why this week's episode was on or off track?

Even mod has to admit that was the best episode of the season, and one of the best of the series so far.  He just... he just has to.

My guess is that you just set Mod up to be disapointed.

I agree that it was good episode though I was a little more into the last one than this.  This one just revealed a lot more than pretty much anything since the first handful of the season.

I wonder how much it's going to slow down now.  If sweeps weren't coming soon, I would say that it would be one more event-packed episode then slowness for a long while, but maybe it'll just be a whole bunch of shit happening then a big avalanche of information.

But yeah, this one: I like what they showed and what they set up.

nah, i dont treat each episode of lost like it's own film.  i dont really rank some over others or set myself up for disappointment. the only exception was it was always great until suddenly nobody acted reasonable and it wasnt, and now it's back.  so, that said tonite was great.  i liked (and was at first thrown by) having the flashbacks all take place on the island.  that could open the show up to going back on itself hundreds of times by showing what certain (unshown) characters were up to DURING the episodes you saw and still take place on the same timeline.  like this episode you didnt see Jin, Sayid, Ana Lucia, Michael, Charlie, etc. etc. etc. and every episode has tons of characters who arent in them so when the 'run out of' or want to switch it up they can just keep playing with the timeline of events since the crash.  which is really cool.

also, (not to be a total obsessive) but when henry gale gives the dimensions of his balloon, he gives the same exact dimensions as Steve Fosett's "Solo Spirit" balloon. the solo spirit was the first hot air balloon to make it around the world in 2002. 

check it out: http://solospirit.wustl.edu/flight.html#balloon

!!!!!SPOILER!!!!
also, before they throw henry in the locker, you can see a picture on the wall behind jack of a hot air balloon. based on this i figured that henry's story has to be bullshit. that is, until i saw this: http://img135.imageshack.us/my.php?image=1282henryballoon5fu.jpg

sorry if i ruined it everyone
