Although we have discovered that Ben is still a huge problem I feel we've gone round in circles and it's like Ugly Betty on an Island where different parts to characters are discovered and they make mistakes to reveal more of themselves.

Also, if somebody is evil (wilhelmina, Ben) then they will always be evil.

I still enjoy it though, I just hope it would surprise me like it has done in the past and the Jin/Sun storyline I've seen just looks like a filler and not answers to the whole - I mean, we're moving away from answers to the whole and focussing on individuals instead.

Maybe I'm just disappointed...

but there can be no 'wholes' without individual pieces...

Hmm... Meh.

Still disappointed. It was interesting. We heard about the tempest and that Ben likes Juliet. Ben has somebody on the boat and more secrets to reveal but we haven't discovered more about Hanso and Dharma etc etc.

I think now they are doing episode 6 ( Sayid/Naveen Andrews said on Richard and Judy ) they may be trying to fill bits in here and there. Obviously, Sun and Jin's baby will survive.

they're giving us some intresting facts but that's it. they aren't telling a story anymore. I feeling disappointed and unsatisfied after most of the episodes. but kudo's to all the people who though that Mr Whitmore was behind all of this.

Yeah well that's kind of fab but I still like to be surprised.

When I heard the episodes would be 16 in each season, I thought it would be more intense but from what I've seen, although I am entertained, I am not as "WOW" entertained anymore. I used to find something completely revelationary most episodes but now it's cool but not as cool.

Oh, I'm just whining - I still love it :D

Yeah i was dissapointed with last night's episode too. I hated how Locke just started trusting Ben again. I hope the writers will stop developing Locke the way they have this season, cause i have a real bad feeling that Locke is the one in the coffin in the season finale last year!

Yeah I did Kate, thanks, I know that. I'm just saying I think I'm just whining, maybe because I have to wait week after week for new news!

I actually really enjoyed the episode! It was a bit lighter than the previous one, which was bombshell after bombshell, so they had to mellow out the next one a bit. I thought it was a very funny episode, and a great chance to review old episodes and fit the pieces together!

Not disappointed but this one definately didn't have the WOW factor of last week. The story was patchy, but I guess they are trying to answer alot of previous questions while still generating a few more, while fleshing out a character or two. Still it was OK.

I wonder if they use so many different directing "interns" to intentionally take the show in a different direction in each new episode. This is a tricky maneuver, if so. It might be responsible for all of the twists and turns that set us fans on edge. I know that some of this is true. Life isn't static, but I wish some of my favs true colors would remain constant.
