Lost


Well, Lost has done it again. With the season finale, the writers have blown my mind. To warn you, I am about to go into a full "Lost my theory on the show" rant, so if you haven't seen the finale, or you just don't care, stop reading now.

What I think will happen is...
By Juliet falling into the well at the Swan location and setting off the hydrogen bomb she will unleash a huge pocket of time traveling energy which will move the island in location and time. Just like John and Ben both did when they turned the dial thing and the island moved and began jumping in time. The reason I think this will happen is because when the island is moved it taps into that same energy. The same energy that was held in a pocket at the bottom of that well that Juliet set a hydrogen bomb off next to. I think the reaction of the energy being released will cause the island to jump and basically flip out. Not knowing when it will rest.

As for Jacob and his enemy who "is looking for a loophole." This is the overall theme of mankind having decisions. Clearly, Jacob is the good entity (God) and the other guy is the bad entity (Devil). We have Jacob who gives the inhabitants of the island direction but lets them make their owns decisions about how they get there. He gives mankind the benefit of the doubt and believes that they are good. That is way, in the flashbacks, he visited major characters in a moment when they needed a little inspiration, like Sawyer at his parents funeral.

My theory is this, the island is a playground for good and evil. Jacob and the other guy, are allowed to bring "players to the island" and its a game of who can manipulate mankind into being the best it can be. Jacob wants them to excel and the other guy wants them to fail. Also, in the beginning when Jacob is fishing and the colonial boat is seen out in the distance and Jacob makes a reference that he is bringing them to the island. How long has this game been going on? When it does it end?

BBC has the best surpriese



Footballer's Wives
What is there to say? I have recently begun watching footballer's wives again. I know it is a soap opera so the surprises are big and the WTF moments are plentiful. But this show offers more than just crazy storylines. It offers awesome fights, great plot twists and creative thinking on the writers part. And all of that is exactly what makes it a great show. The acceleration never lets up. Each scene is key to the storyline, which I hate to admit this but American shows sometimes over look this important fact. We want shows that keep our attention. We want the constant conflict and arguing and scheming.

What do you think?

Are They Kidding Me



SAT question for you;
The OC is to Laguna Beach
As
Gossip Girl is to ????

The answer, NYC Prep.

So, First we had The OC and that spawned Laguna Beach. Laguna spawned the Hills, that spawned The City, (and I am just waiting for Ali "The Model" and her boyfriend...that male model who I can't remember his name to get their own spin off "Newlyweds" like show). It is an never ending evil cycle of annoyingly addictive shows that networks are just cranking out and we eating them up like hungry dogs lapping up puppychow.

Next we got Gossip Girl and that has spawned an evil beast. Bravo's NYC Prep is Gossip Girl's reality equivalent.

So by logic, the next big reality show will be based on a popular tv show. I think it will be about a girl who moved from a fly over state and becomes a popstar. Money.

Where did all the WTF moments go?

Come on Television. Stop holding out on us. WE want some jaw dropping, "holy shit" screaming, "What the Fuck" moments from you and you better not let down. Clearly, whatever tv I am watching doesn't have any of these moments. Does anyone recommend where I can go to see some great television?

Round Two

So, on last week episode of the Real Housewives of New York, Bethenny and Kelly go for round 2. They have a little side conversation to clear the air, which has good intentions. Until Kelly's coke lined mind doesn't let Bethenny get in one word. Plus, the poor Kelly is so high she has blacked out that last conversation where she insults Bethenny and then waits for her date to show up at the same bar. Basically, this fight was not as awesome as the first, but it was entertaining to watch. I was just looking for pictures on the bravo website to throw up here for you readers when I came across Kelly's blog. She gives her side of the story. I will sum it up for you here but if you want to see it, head over to bravotv.com to check it out. Basically, Kelly has rarely had someone hate her so therefore, she doesn't like confrontations. She hates the "soap opera/ mafia sit downs" that Bethenny seems to love. I can't believe for a second that Kelly doesn't like confrontations. She likes attention, and some of the best attention comes from public confrontations and altercations. (Like the time Kelly was busted for punching her boyfriend.) So, I personally think her publicist wrote the blog because it is a total puff piece.
