To reiterate, COME ON. WITH THE SPOILERS.

SENSIBLE SPOILER RULES:

TheGreatDave said:
People get themselves worked up over spoilers. Honestly, the rule should be:

Officially announced information, either through interviews, podcasts, or anything show-authorised: in the weekly thread

Shit leaked from casting calls/DarkUFO's bread and butter: spoiler thread.

There's a time and place for spoiler tagging in this thread, but only for the benefit of people who want to deny themselves publicly known information.

ALSO.

THERE IS NOW A MINOR SPOILER THREAD:

Consider it the Taller Ghost Walt to the Christian Shepard that is the MAJOR SPOILER THREAD.

Well, you're going to be extremely disappointed when Nikki and Paulo make a surprise guest appearance in the alternate timeline.

i dont care if there are answers or not.. ill be happy if Nestor is shirtless at any time during this episode :lol

SpeedingUptoStop · Mar 23, 2010

ABc promo descriptions are getting more vague than humanly possible.

"On this week's episode of Lost, something may or may not happen."

Alfarif · Mar 23, 2010

Hey, where do you guys get the promo images? I want to see them!

YoungHav · Mar 23, 2010

Dead · Mar 23, 2010

omggggg, so hyped

gdt · Mar 23, 2010

Those are great.

Calcaneus · Mar 23, 2010

This is the episode where we find out that Vincent, like Miles and Charlotte, has a past on the island.

HowardRoark · Mar 23, 2010

So ridiculously pumped. I want it to be 9 already...

woodchuck · Mar 23, 2010

i've been waiting for this episode for like 3 years. soooo pumped

joelseph · Mar 23, 2010

Best episode in television history incoming.

BenjaminBirdie · Mar 23, 2010

Oh, did I mention my DVR tells me this episode has SIX BONUS MINUTES?!?!?!?!

I was wondering if it was intentional <3

Domino Theory · Mar 23, 2010

I cannot fucking wait for this. The guest stars (!!), Richard, the guest stars, Richard and Richard.

threenote · Mar 23, 2010

I just hope we aren't overhyping this. Overhype normally leads to disappointment.

Tim the Wiz · Mar 23, 2010

I'll be watching avidly, alongside Lost-GAF.

Brinbe · Mar 23, 2010

YESSSSS, EPISODE WE'VE WAITED YEARS FOR, ALMOST HERE! CANNOT FUCKING WAIT!

:lol

And reminder, I know most Canadians know it's on @ 7, but if any of you have a cable-box, check if you have CTV Atlantic, since they're showing it @ 6 PM Eastern (Ch. 114 here in Toronto).

BenjaminBirdie said:

Yep on the last video podcast they said the episode would be running until 9:05 est IIRC

an episode SO EPIC THAT IT COULDN'T BE CONTAINED IN 43 MEASLY MINUTES

gdt · Mar 23, 2010

Yeah, this episode is 6 minutes longer, btw. Adjust accordingly.

I actually found a totally awesome Press Release that was formatted perfectly so the Guest Stars were under the scroll.

I WIN!!!

Thought it was 4 minutes longer? 9:00 - 10:06?

It's gonna be the longest episode of lost ever?

Ya'll guys remember the current longest ep, right? Went it a little something like THE BEST EPISODE OF LOST EVER.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

Most episodes end at 10:02.

HowardRoark · Mar 23, 2010

BenjaminBirdie said:

Lost always runs from 9:00 - 10:02.

06-02= 4.

BenjaminBirdie · Mar 23, 2010

Ohhhhhh!!

Then, yep! Four minutes!

threenote · Mar 23, 2010

Extra 6 minutes? I knew the episode was longer, but 6 minutes?!? Disregard what I previously said, this episode is going to blow us away.

gdt · Mar 23, 2010

Most episodes have been like 2/3 minutes longer this season (just check the runtimes on Hulu).

Jeff-DSA · Mar 23, 2010

I'm guessing, that with all LOST threads, that as soon as it finishes airing we're going to have a flood of "NOT ENOUGH ANSWERS" posts and a huge push back of others claiming it's about the characters, not the mystery.

I hope they leave some stuff unanswered, but I really would like to see some of the major mysteries begin to unravel a bit more tonight.

StrikerObi · Mar 23, 2010

Interesting fact: The make-up crew actually puts make-up on Nestor Carbonell's eye lashes to reduce their darkness. It's mentioned on the Season 5 DVD/Blu-Ray in the "Epic Day with Richard Apert" feature. His eye lashes are naturally super dark, so much so that the crew felt the need to reduce their darkness. Imagine how dark they are without the special make-up...

Then, yep! Four minutes!

I don't really know if it ends at 10:06 though, that's just what I thought. You might be right and it ends at 10:08. Or maybe they *gasp* show less commercials (Pretty sure ABC has this to say about that: :lol).

Just checked. Theyre all about the same length as the episodes from seasons 2 - 5

The only episode thats longer than usual so far is Lighthouse at 44:30 minutes

Nameless · Mar 23, 2010

50 mintues of epic. Can't wait.

I've been waiting for this episode since fuckin November.

Now I'm just wondering why the fuck Darlton didn't tell him to keep the mustache...

Jtones · Mar 23, 2010

This better be a good episode.

InaudibleWhispa · Mar 23, 2010

Given that it's Richard and we're likely to delve deep into his back story, I wonder how much of the episode will be in English.

Oh yeah and HYYYYPPPEEE!!!

smokeymicpot · Mar 23, 2010

Tuesday once again.

YAY at it being a Richard episode.
