Absolutely, Tebor. Loved it. Has anyone been reading the Charlotte = Annie stuff going around? Another thing going around is that Widmore moved the island at one point as well, which is why he's looking for it since, like Ben, he "can't go back".
I'm a believer in the Charlotte/Annie theories, but Ben doesn't recognize her when he briefly met her at the start of the season. Later in the season that new evil Other lady (Harper) said Juliet looked "just like her" which we all believed was a reference to Annie. Except, Juliet and Charlotte look nothing alike!
Widmore probably only has four toes.
Oz seemed like a show with too much rape and not enough munchkins.
I'm not sure I'm sold on Charlotte=Annie. First, there is a 24 year age difference between Michael Emerson and Rebecca Mader. Even if they try and make Ben younger than what Michael really is and Charlotte older than what Rebecca is, and given the weird time shit for the island, I'm not sure that it explains it good enough for me. Also, Ben seemed to know quite a bit about her. I would think one of them would recognize the other. I think if we meet Annie, it'll be somebody we haven't seen yet.
I was wondering if possibly Charlotte was the last baby that was both conceived and born on the island.

Another crazy theory I've been trying to work out is that Hurley is Libby's husband. Somehow he goes back in time, buys her a boat, and marries her. I was rewatching season 2 and Libby is still an enigma, but she seems to know something about Hurley we don't.

That's actually believable. Did it ever explain why she was on the plane? I can't remember. If not that is a great theory. After he goes back to be with her, something happens, whatever. Then she sees him (old Hurley, not post-island Hurley who would recognize her) and he doesn't recognize her. He goes to the nuthouse. She gets committed to get close to him, but he still doesn't recognize her. She follows him to Austrailia, and onto the plane, like some kind of stalker watching in the shadows.
But if they had a viable explanation of why she was on the plane, which I can't remember, it destroys that idea.
There is a hole in my little theory there. The first time through, she wouldn't have known him yet, so wouldn't have followed him on the plane (unless she would have been on the plane anyways). Unless...
Hell with it. This is making my head hurt.

No reason for her being on the plane was ever given. She was on the plane though as seen in an Eko episode where she's at the airport. Some people thought she was an undiscovered Other.
Yeah, the Hurley back in time theory really hurts your head because you do too much work to make sense of it. Plus, you'd think Future Hurley would've warned her about Michael.

SPOILERS
Michelle Rodriguez will return next season for one episode, the second one (rumored to be a Hurley episode given that Cheech is also on the cast list).

Remember that second season episode "Collision"?
There was a podcast commentary for it YEARS ago that they didn't include on the DVD. I've synced it up on YouTube.

It's all on YouTube! I'm not posting five more videos here. Imagine the scrolling!
Edit: You can watch the rest by clicking on the videos in the "related videos section" after the embed player has finished. Or just click the video to go to the YouTube page.

So I watched the last couple of episodes last night, and here are the questions I want answered by the show post-haste!
1) Who is Charlotte, really? Obviously she was once one of the Others; was she Ben's childhood friend?
2) What the fuck is Christian? He's in Jacob's cabin, Jack's FF, and then he shows himself to Michael right before the ship explodes.
3) Where is Claire? I guess that ties into Christian, but whatever.
4) How did Locke get off the island?
I know there are bigger questions to ask but these are ones that are bugging me.

I wonder if we should start a second Lost thread for discussions with possible spoilers. I'm afraid to talk about it too much because I don't know who isn't caught up or if I say something its going to ruin the show or what.
Do we need another thread, or is this one "anything goes"? I actually have some theories about the show.

My personal rule has always been to NOT check the thread unless I'm caught up. I know that wehn I am in-the-know, I don't like tip-toeing around shit to avoid spoiling it. The thread is to discuss EVERYTHING that has been brought to light so far and hypothesize on the answers to what mysteries remain.

In a way, it's possible, but wouldnt she be too young for that? And she has met Ben already and nothing happened so it's quite unprobable.

I still can't figure out who is the most important person on the island (or off). I'm sure they all have some degree of importance or the island wouldn't have brought them there (or whatever the fuck). But Jacob, Christian, Ben, Widmore and Locke seem to possibly mean more in the grand scheme of things. Or maybe they don't. Fuck I don't know.

Don't forget Desmond. I can't quite remember who, but someone-at-some-point said he was "different" from everyone else.

Well, it looks like we found out why Alpert was visiting Locke as a child.

So now Desmond and Penny are going to Los Angeles, where Ben is. 10:1 that Ben fulfills his promise of killing Penny and/or him and Ms. Hawking (who is almost certainly Daniel's mother) kidnap Desmond and force him to go back to the island. Neither one of these outcomes is desirable. Desmond deserves a happy ending.
That army chick on the last episode was pretty hot.
Oh yeah, I think Desmond should have a happy ending too, but he just seems like the kind of character that will get fucked over. Good stuff happens to him, but he just seems like an overall unlucky person.

I don't really think the show should have a happy ending and that goes for any of the main characters. I don't really want Penny to die. I think she should be able to raise their kid. But I hope Desmond has to return to the island as well.

I knew Widmore was an Other! And I'm pretty sure he a) moved the island; or b) was banished from it for running afoul of Alpert at some point. Obviously I'm still curious to see how the Others got to the island in the first place, how long they've been there, etc. I mean, if people can't seem to have children without dying then there has to be a way to keep the population up.
I was thinking briefly that pregger Others could leave the island (like Alpert does), have their kids, and bring them back to the island. But then it would have made zero sense for them to recruit Juliet in the first place.
The rumor going around about Ellie (the young Other with the gun) is that she is a younger Ms. Hawking. Perhaps she has aged (as opposed to how Alpert stays young) because she has stayed off of the island since she left. Hell, maybe she's moved the wheel too.
So many questions, but I'm glad that the season has started well and we only had one time jump this past week.

According to Lostpedia, Ms. Hawking's first name is Eloise, so that would make sense. And since Daniel thought Ellie looked familiar, that would also contribute towards the idea that Hawking is indeed Daniel's mother.
I'm guessing if her hame is Eloise, Ellie will most likely be Ms. Hawking.
Something else, I heard a rumor that we will learn about Ethan Rom's mother. I don't know if there is a possibility of Hawking being Ethan's mother. It seems more likely that she is Faraday's mother. Both Hawking and Faraday's mother are in LA. It could be a coincidence I suppose.
Here is the thing. Hawking seems to be in cahoots with Ben. But, Faraday is working for Widmore, and Widmore obviously knows where to find Faraday's mother.

We are getting even more questions this season so far than we are getting answers. If this keeps up, the last season is going to be filled with a lot of revelations for the viewers. I suppose they can leave a lot of things open ended or even untouched. But there are so many things that will have to be answered and there isn't a lot of time left for it all. The pace of the show has picked up quite a bit, but think how much more it will likely pick up by the end.
