(Very) Lost

Spoilers follow, so if you care stop reading now, I really don't give a shit about spoilers after being a longtime spoilee of many things great. The Usual Suspects was one such moment.


Lost sucks so far, we all know it deep down. It has its shining moments but my qualms is that it

1. Never finishes what it starts (yet)
   
2. The modern day tv version of "The Song That Never Ends"
3. Uses the "Carrot on a Stick" method to attract viewers, similar to the one of Naruto fame. Except perhaps with a really long stick and a really big carrot that is kind of shrouded in mist so we don't know if its a carrot or a stick of dynamite that will explode in our face.
   

After discussions with Coup the most devout Lost follower I know, from now on, after each week of watching an episode of Lost, I will list things that I predict will not be explained and was simply there as filler. I think episode 3.14 spoke for itself so I guess, 3.15 is as good a place to start as any.

1. Why were Kate and Juliet handcuffed together in the forest when Jack and Sayeed were left in town, besides to fill time where they try to get back to town and allow the writers to elaborate on Kate's background (that we know already)?
   
2. Is the big monster really just a camera totting pervbot that snapped pictures of Kate and Juliet sitting in a tree? Maybe that's why only the women were dragged into the forest, to have some wrestling in the rain and the mud?
   

Anyway I hope to be proved wrong in the distant future (93-100 eps, end of season 4 and a bit they suspect) when the writers of Lost eventually scramble to explain things, but I'll put myself out there and hazard a guess that they are simply writing from week to week with an overall plan for the season and as long as the money is rolling in, the questions keep rolling out, and once the cash supply runs dry so does the ink.
