Unspoiled spoilers. . .in other words. . .gleaning spoilers where there are none. . .


I just rewatched 'Confirmed Dead' and I'd forgotten how much I like Miles. 

I don't read spoilers. . .but then I haven't gone as far out of my way to avoid them as last year either.  Which probably means that they're doing a better job keeping them suppressed than in previous years because I know little to nothing about the upcoming season.

What have I seen?  Cast photos. . .you can find them here. . .always have to watch out for those comments on darkufo though - they police them pretty well but spoilers do slip in from time to time.  The only thing I'm aware you can glean from them is that some folks are there and others aren't.  So, if you're super spoiler sensitive, stay away.  But the photos themselves are just people against a gray background.

What can we glean from these cast photos? (a.k.a. blatant guessing)

1.  Sawyer has his good haircut.  I'm not aware of any deeply spoilery context for that one - but it's always good news when Sawyer's hair looks nice.  Does this mean that he's back with Kate who obviously does a better job cutting his hair than Juliet?  Guess we'll have to wait and see. 

2.  Jack does not have his skanky beard.  I'm sure we can all breathe a deep sigh of relief on that one.  Does this mean that his reset worked and he's a shiny happy doctor again?  Or does it mean that it didn't and Kate's just cutting everyone's hair this season?

3.  The women all have good hair.  I would comment specifically on the various women but I don't want to say which are there and which aren't lest you're trying not to know that.  I have always had a theory that whoever's sleeping with Sawyer gets the best hair and makeup. . .I am unable to discern who his latest bed buddy might be from viewing these photos.

4.  Richard Alpert is much nicer looking than I ever noticed before.  I wonder if he's been working out in the off-season.  Has he ever been in the cast photos before?  Does this mean we're going to get more Alpert than usual?  Wouldn't mind that at all would you?

5.  Likewise for Lapidus!  I want this photographer the next time I have my picture made.  Everyone looks even better than they normally look.  Blatant guess, hmmm, Lapidus is clean shaven and not wearing his Jimmy Buffett outfit. . .he has really nice eyes. . .did you know he's in the movie Coldheart with Josh Holloway?  This is the same look he has going there - which would lead me to believe that in the next season he's going to be a crooked attorney who releases psychopathic serial killers onto unsuspecting art dealers. . .somehow that seems doubtful.

6.  Kate, while still being a 10 relative to my own 2, on a scale of 1 to 10, just is never eye-popping in these cast photoshoots.  I think they must like sort of a pouty sultry look on her and I always think she looks so much prettier smiling.  I have previously noticed that Kate smiles a lot around Sawyer and looks worried a lot around Jack. . .I've also noticed that she looks depressed in every one of these photo shoots Seasons 1 - 5 so I'm assuming this comment is utterly meaningless.  Maybe they have them really early in the morning and she isn't a morning person.

So, dare I hope. . .

Do you think Juliet might be alive?  I've been thinking about this lately.

I definitely wanted Juliet and Sawyer to be together. . .

I can live with Sawyer and Kate being together. . .

If Sawyer and Juliet are together I don't mind Jack and Kate being together. . .but if Sawyer's alone. . .I don't want Jack and Kate together either.  LOL

If Juliet is alive and chooses to be with Jack over Sawyer, that would be okay with me. . .but I don't want Juliet coming back, seeing Sawyer and Kate together and ending up with Jack by default. . .

Does this mean that I'm just a Juliet fan these days?  And how stupid am I to be a Juliet fan when by all appearances, the poor girl is dead?

And now I want a reset.  I want Juliet alive. . .but I'm afraid a reset doesn't give us much Juliet since she's obviously off filming V these days. . .

Sigh. . .when is it January?  I guess it's not over after all. . .

As I stand at the window. . .

I can't help but think, "It's over isn't it?"

I was looking over ABC's website and they are thanking their fans for supporting the show. And we're pretty much out of mysteries, we're just at the tying up loose ends phase. So, I don't know that I'll have any more Lost Thoughts.

It was time travel.
There were vile vortices.
The incident was caused or at least impacted by the Losties.
And the Valenzetti equation was where the numbers came from.

I enjoyed talking it over with you guys as it unfolded. And thanks to anyone who reads this.

Maybe someday we'll have another show good enough to inspire us to write tributes to it. But, for now.

Namaste and good luck.

The one thing you have to admire about Don Draper

He doesn't judge. He doesn't have any room to, of course.

This is kinda neat if you have about a half hour to watch. . .
