LOST – This is such a fun show to watch. Michael has a good description of this week’s episode. As usual, the episode ended with even more questions to ponder. I think the purgatory storyline no longer holds water. Are the whispered voices imaginary or evidence that the island is some sort of observatory? Which […]
