What's that? What's that, you say? Some Lost fans are sick of only seeing Kate, Jack and Sawyer every episode? They yearn for those simpler times of Season 1? I've never heard such nonsense. In case you haven't noticed, for a show so concerned with numbers, Lost's ratings have been taking a hit this season. "Fans" (air quotes, because any Lost fan who stops watching Lost isn't much of a fan) complained that it wasn't the same show -- the story lines became too convoluted and the core characters became all but nonexistent. The creators, however, claim this is all a part of the master plan, and that if the "fans" just hold out, they'll see how it all comes together. Which brings us to this week's episode. A Hurley episode. A happy episode. A let's-all-ride-around-in-a-VW-van-and-not-further-the-story episode. Sigh. If that's not an olive branch to the "fans," I don't know what is.
