In the penultimate episode of Lost's first season, we bid an emotional farewell to the raft plotline. As the Losties prepare for an imminent attack by the Others, everyone scrambles to get the boat in the water.

Help Me, Somebody - "Born to Run" S1E22

Hoo boy. This one's a tough sit. In the final Kate episode of the season, we learn why Kate wants that toy plane so badly. The brothers once again lament this character's frustrating arc (or lack of one), and why "Born to Run" might qualify as the very worst episode of the season.Original Air Date: May 11, 2005Writers: Edward Kitsis & Adam HorowitzStory: Javier Grill-MarxuachDi

I Know What It Cost You - "The Greater Good" S1E21

Jun 14 2024 98 mins

An episode that dares to tackle an uncomfortable topic, but still feels half baked. Sayid reflects on his past as he interrogates Locke and learns exactly what happened the day Boone died. Because this episode deals with such a heavy topic, we've provided this link to the National Institute of Mental Health. If you or a loved one are dealing with an emotional crisis, or just need s

In this episode, the boys cover a wide range of topics, from the memoir of one of LOST's foundational writers to Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves. Oh yeah, and they also discuss one of the best dang episodes of the season.Also, three corrections for this episode: First, both Pierce and Derek are wrong about the dates of Jason Statham's dancing and acting careers.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy this little sidequest with the island's most endearing survivor, Hugo "Hurley" Reyes. "Numbers" is the kind of quirky adventure we rarely get on the island - light and fun (though sprinkled with a whopping helping of paranoia). The Vox article Pierce and Derek briefly discuss can be read here.Original Air Date: March 2, 2005Writers: David Fury & Brent

Maybe We Should Get Some Rope - "...In Translation" S1E17

Oct 09 2023 76 mins

In this stirring counterpoint to "House of the Rising Sun," we delve into Jin's backstory, and learn he's not the creep we all believed he was. This episode goes a long way towards explaining his actions. And while it doesn't fully redeem Jin-Soo Kwon, it transforms him into a more complete character, one we actually want to root for.

In this episode, the brothers go head-to-head to answer the ultimate question: Is "Outlaws" an exemplary episode of LOST, or just some fun character filler? We also spin off tangents galore as we ruminate on the afterlife of the TV show compared to other popular dramas like Game of Thrones, discuss the likelihood of LOST being rebooted in our lifetimes, and gush about how cool it i
