Lost Spoilers Blog - The Beginning

Spoiler Alert: Don't read this blog if you don't want

to know the future of Lost.

Q - When is a date not a date?
A - In Contender's Lost Spoilers Blog.

Why? We can see the future, of course. After all, that's what Lost spoilers are all about!

Did you notice the date of this post? It's in the future ... woooooooo (scary scifi sounds!). Actually, it's so it appears first, as the software puts everything in reverse chron order.

In this blog, take the dates with a big grain of salt. What they mean is either (1) the date the spoiler is supposed to happen, like the episode in which it occurs, or (2) the real date I made the post. How you might ask can readers tell the difference? Not sure says the blogger ;) .

I think it will all make sense eventually. So keep coming back, and have fun!

Intro: This is my blog on spoilers found in the Lost series from ABC. I will continue to post my blog on LostExposed.com, so go there for a lot of the episode clues or spoilers that I am posting. Here in this blog, I will focus more on spoilers as compared to my blog at Lost Exposed in a different format, and I also will add in some new stuff as I think of it!

UK Lost Spoilers

This post is for U.K. Only Lost Spoilers

I'm finding that a lot of readers of this blog are coming in from the UK, even though we are on the U.S. schedule. So this post provides an index of our spoiler posts for the first six episodes of Series 3 of the Lost show.

Are the British being discriminated against by the Lost producers by the synching delay? Hey, the U.K. is lucky: NO WINTER HIATUS like in the U.S. In the U.S. these Lost episodes were broadcast in October and November followed by a 13 week break so ABC could broadcast Daybreak. Not a bad series, but they wound up cancelling it for low ratings. Sheesh. Enough complaining.

My spoilers posts for those episodes are dated a few days prior to the U.S. episode. However for our U.K. members, that schedule does not correspond to the actual broadcast dates. So, to bring sense to this potentially confusing situation, the Lost Spoilers Blog Blogger is here.

• Season 3, Episode 1 Spoilers: I didn't do a pre-broadcast post. But for the U.K. only, here is a riddle hint - When the eye opens you are in an-Other world. We find out who Fenry (fake Henry Gale) really is, maybe. And, we learn about what happened to the kidnapped Losties.

10:00 p.m. Lost ?- Not a Spoiler

Warning: This is not really a spoiler!

First it was 8:00 and it was good. Then it moved to 9:00 p.m. and it was so-so ratings time. Now its off to 10:00 p.m. starting on February 7, 2007 for everyone here in the U.S. of A. and Lost will either go up or go down. We'll see.

Personally, my prediction is it will be good for ratings and good for the lead-in shows, however, everyone may be too tired to do the after show Internet log-on to see what really happened that Lost fans love.

Lost Spoilers Blog: "The Cost of Living", Season 3 - Episode 5 of Lost

Usual Warning: If you want to remain in suspense until the broadcast, stop reading now...

These are the pre-broadcast spoilers for Season 3, Episode 5 of Lost on ABC TV in the USA. The Clues blog on this episode is here: Lost Clues Blog, and will be updated after the broadcast.

Ok, another brilliant Lost plan will be implemented by the beach Losties in order to rescue Jack, Sawyer and Kate. Yep, they will go after computer power to assist. So, it's time to go, and go hunting for a hatch computer. The computer has got to lead them to greater knowledge.

Back at the Other’s zoo, on the Other's other island, Jack keeps working his psychological warfare angle from the the fish tank. Another way of looking at his strategy is "turn Julliette" - in case Kate takes Sawyer. It is hard to determine who is playing whom.

The flashback will focus on Mr. Eko’s backstory. From Spoilerfix the episode features Nigerian woman named Amadi who is intuitive and strong and has a son, a violent warlord named Azi, and a sweet altar boy named Daniel.

The title of this episode says it all. – the cost of living. And they are not referring to economic statistics! This is the price you pay to stay alive, or else you die. Indeed, the big rumor this week is that one of our favorite characters dies. That’s right Mr. Eko. I have to tell you I am pretty skeptical about this rumor and my misdirection radar is beeping away on it. The “official” rumor leaked out through TV Guide - who usually gets it right when it comes to Lost - is:

“Next week, a major character (as in a series regular) whose name is not Sawyer will join Boone, Shannon, Ana Lucia and Libby in the big island in the sky. And you're not going to believe who it is. I won't believe it until I see it with my own eyes”

The whispered rumor connected to this PR hype is that it is Mr. Eko who dies. Unfortunately the readers of this 100% accurate blog :) should bet this is a spoiler and one of the most loved Losties is a goner.

To the contrary, the flashback for this episode will be Mr. Eko’s. Why spend all the production dollars on someone you are firing? Ok I’m on the fence on this one, leaning to a bye bye Eko. As I said before, here, I would not want any inaccurate spoilers , so I may pull this one. For now it stays. We’ll see.

The Spoilers From Pre-Broadcast of Lost Season 3, Episode 3, "Further Instructions"

Clues blog on this episode is here: http://lostexposed.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=234, and was updated after the broadcast.

Fascinatingly ABC switch the broadcast date of this episode from second to third episode of the season. Just before the airing ABC delayed it a week - creating an unusual air of mystery about this episode.

If all the hype is to be believed, this episode focus back on the hatchlings, Desmond, Locke and Mr. Eko, FINALLY. What happened to them anyway? I know... They survived! With a few nicks and bruises to show for it. So, even though the hatch door blew clear to the beach, the guys inside are fine, don't worry about it. Whew!

There has been some misdirection out there on whether the flashback will be on Claire's backstory or Locke's backstory. Let's bet on Locke for this one, my sources say .

Here is the "official" word from ABC's Medianet report. The creators have been known for misdirection before, so take this report -- and any spoiler -- for what it is:

"Ian Somerhalder guest stars as Boone" - Boone is back.

"The fates of Locke, Eko and Desmond are revealed after the implosion of the hatch, while Hurley returns to the beach camp to tell the tale of what happened when he, Jack, Kate and Sawyer encountered "The Others."

"Meanwhile, Claire is shocked to find Nikki and Paulo in Jack's tent. ...

The guest stars are:

Kiele Sanchez as Nikki
Rodrigo Santoro as Paulo -- I heard Rodrigo will become a regular cast member.
Ian Somerhalder as Boone
Justin Chatwin as Eddie
Chris Mulkey as Mike
Virginia Morris as Jan
Joel Himelhoch as sheriff
Dion Donahue as Kim
