Season 6: A Parade of Question Marks

DVDSetCollection.com / 2010-05-13
Seth, if last night's mess was the best episode of Lost Seasons 6 dvds all year, I'm afraid of what that says about this season. I felt as though I was watching a bizarro version of Oedipus Rex—COLD CASE all the stiff, wooden dialogue without any of the little flourishes (and with matricide COLD CASE dvd box set rather than patricide). What poorly executed slop. The effects were hokey, the COLD CASE on dvd acting was campy, and the sets were sparse. On an artistic level, it was as COLD CASE dvd season enjoyable as getting turned into a smoke COLD CASE dvd series monster.

CLOSEOn a purely narrative level, Two and a Half Men dvd however, I was basking in its eternal sunshine. This was perhaps the most revelation-packed episode since we Two and a Half Men first got a glimpse of the hatch in Season 2. It was, to Two and a Half Men dvd box set keep with Jack's toilet vocabulary, a dump. Why this episode didn't happen earlier in the series, Two and a Half Men dvds I don't know. I'd have been far more invested far more quickly in the Jacob vs. Smokey battle if I was given this Two and a Half Men seasons dvd back story in the season premiere.
But answers are answers, no matter when they're offered, and even if, as Mother Earth suggested, they lead to another question. Thus, let's begin my parade of answers followed by question marks with the revelation that boy Jacob is that creepy kid we've seen stalking Smokey in modern times. We know that it's not just Smokey who can see the new Jacob, but Sawyer, too. And yet Richard couldn't see him. So maybe candidates are the only ones who can see Jacob Jr., even though Hurley is the only one who can see Jacob Sr.'s ghost? This is the 27th arbitrary rule this season, by my count.
And then, why didn't MiB die when his mom smashed his head against the wall? (Jack, after gunshots to the torso, the head against the wall is Lost Seasons dvds's second-favorite way to kill somebody off.) He certainly looked dead—not passed out—and Mother told Jacob that she went to say goodbye to MiB. I'd say that it's because family members can't kill one another, except MiB kills Mother later in the episode. I'd say that the only reason MiB is able to kill Mother is because he uses a special sword (the same one Richard and Sayid use to try to kill MiB), except that's not what Ben used to kill Jacob. It appears we've stumbled into Arbitrary Rule No. 28.
