Lost Season Five: Some Like It Hoth

April 16, 2009

lost-some-like-it-hoth

What I Liked:

  • I really like Ken Leung (as Miles and as an actor in general) so it was about time he got a spotlight
  • Since Miles had to be the emotional one this episode, pairing him up with Hurley in the minibus was genius (especially considering Sawyer had surrendered his pithy throne awhile ago)
  • I still like new laidback/”I’m not in charge so (insert shoulder shrug)” Jack
  • Hurley’s improved The Empire Strikes Back script and using Star Wars as a metaphor for Miles’ daddy issues
  • Oh Naomi. Sexy Naomi with your lovely accent. How I missed you
  • Hey! Ben told the truth about something! Widmore really was responsible for the fake Oceanic 815
  • We all kinda suspected that Miles was Pierre Chang’s son so I’m glad they didn’t treat it as some big surprise
  • The numbers are back
  • Daniel’s back! Now we can get back to the science-fiction stuff I love so much

What I Didn’t Like:

  • While I’m intrigued about Bram and the “What lies in the shadow of the statue” folks but do we really need another faction this close to the end?
  • The whole taking Ben to the Others plan wasn’t very well thought out on Juliet’s end
  • Kate’s an idiot…still
  • Another Lostie with daddy issues? Doesn’t anybody hate their mother?
