I WANT ANSWERS, NOT MORE QUESTIONS! (Post the First)

Like you (if you are), I'm a fan of Lost. If you're not ... yeah ...

ANYWAY! All the promos and episode teasers that I've heard on the radio and seen on TV before and after episodes have aired have the same key phrase: "The time for questions is over." ... Bull$#*#!

Why am I calling "Bull$#*#"? THERE HAVE BEEN MORE QUESTIONS SINCE THE FINAL SEASON PREMIERE!
Let's do a little question recap, shall we? (CAUTION: Slight spoilers.)


Episode 6.01 and 6.02 "LA X"

• Where's Shannon?!
• Was the magazine Rose was reading a hint towards something?
• The dialogue between Rose and Jack ... what was with the change in the delivery?
• Charlie's back. When will we see him again?
• Desmond. He appeared on the plane out of the blue, I'd guess. Where did he go?
• So, Jack randomly started bleeding? How'd that happen?
• As Hurley is the "luckiest person on earth", does that mean that all his bad luck (i.e., the mental hospital, the therapy, etc.) hasn't happened to him?
• The pool ... that's how Ben was revived/saved in the past ... but how? And what's up with the color of it? How does that factor in to it?
• How did the ankh come to have Jacob's list of Special People and how did it come to be in a guitar case?
• What did Juliet mean by "It worked"? Was she referring to the creation of the alternate timeline?

Episode 6.03 "What Kate Does"

• The flight is in October? Correction: Prop error.
• Did Kate recognize or realize something about Jack on the way out of the airport in the taxi?
• Where'd the cabbie go? The guy who plays him (David H. Lawrence, a.k.a. Doyle from Heroes) is going to be on the show in a few other episodes.
• So ... Ethan is now Ethan Goodspeed, not Ethan Rom? How ...?

Episode 6.04 "The Substitute"

• What was with the names on the cavern walls? Is that Jacob's list of potential replacement candidates?
• How did Ben come to be working in the same school Locke is a substitute at? AND WHY IS HE STILL SO CREEPY?!
• How did Hurley not recognize Locke from the flight?
• How did Rose come to work for Hurley? And did they not realize that they were on the same flight?
• I thought that Locke and Helen split before Locke went to Australia. How are they still together?
• Locke is on good terms with his dad?! So ... how did he lose the ability to walk? And does he still have his kidney?
• I would guess that the young blonde boy that everyone but Richard could see was a young Jacob. Does that sound about right?

That's it for this week. See you in another week, brotha.

P.S. I'm thinking about continuing this through the series finale. Good? Yes? No?
