Lindelof and Cuse are sick!

So I was watching Lost Episode 14 of Season 3 right? Ok. You know what? Fuck the summary. Let me get to the good part!

Two of "our losties" are mistakenly buried alive!!! Watching it happen is excruciatingly painful even though from their backstory which was shown in the episode, you want them to bite the dust. BUT NOT LITERALLY?!

It's like.. like.. alright. Just watch the episode. Lost fans only in it for the big picture may either see it as 1: "This doesn't help the plot at all" or 2: "I see that the "not so good people" seem to be getting it."

Lost fans like me, however, who live day by day on pure adrenaline from watching the episodes would've had an orgasm had the episode not make you want to scream out at the top of your lungs and bang your fists in agony at the atrocity that befell Nikki and Paolo (who I started to appreciate as a 'man in love'). Watch the episode to understand.

From a "Lost story-telling style", it had one or two drawbacks with mild but still noticeable regurgitation's of flashbacks from episodes gone by, peppered with some filler of unseen in-between events. It sort of filled up the holes in the Swiss cheese that is Lost but in all honesty, we just want more cheese added on top, because regardless of the holes in the "cheese", it can still support the weight of the plot advancement.

On the other hand, this episode is definitely my most favourite episode from Lost although, it is not my most favourite Lost episode. If you get what I mean.

Episode rating: 7/5
Lost story arc: 3/5 (Interesting information given but next-to-no plot advancement)
