Some Super Duper Season 6 LOST Scoop

Since there are 16 more weeks until the last season of LOST begins, here's some "scoop" I found on the net to help tide us over.

Lost on Saturday (contains spoilers!!)

Will You Be Lost After LOST is over?

Oh LOST......how will I survive without you? I'm not the biggest TV fan, but when I do find something to watch, I'm an addict. Before LOST I was a Sex and The City freak, and before that I guess it was Seinfeld. Okay, if I go back any further we'll be in the 80's. Truth be told, I still think of The Cosby Show and Family Ties as Thursday night lineup. I feel so left out most of the time when the topic turns to TV. There's a 9o% chance I have no clue what you're even talking about, except when it comes to LOST or anything "educational" (you know, NatGeo and Discovery stuff).

I figure I like LOST for several reasons. It has action, drama, and romance (just don't mention the term sci-fi, and I'm good). The perfect recipe to tune in each week and tune out on real life. But, it's also thought provoking and I like that it gets me thinking! I'll find myself "slipping away" mentally and thinking about the show, trying to figure it all out, etc. I'm not saying I'm going to build a rocket because of LOST. But, I can find more way more value in it than watching, say, Desperate Housewives. That's one show I don't get, again another lifestyle I don't promote so I can't imagine wasting my time watching it. At least it's fiction I guess. Anyway, I'll leave that topic for another day.

So, other LOST nerds like me might know that they have picked up filming again in Hawaii. Yippee! With filming comes rumors and scoop! I keep up with the news via Dark UFO. I've never been a forum fan and this is a blog style site.

Are you a LOST fan? What do you think of this whole reset thing? After the videos that were released at Comic-Con 2009 (something I'd never thought I'd even be aware of) like Kate's America's Most Wanted Video and the rumors of them filming 815 landing/LAX scenes, seems it's TV "fact". I'm glad I've had time to start processing it all, and am now beginning to have questions (in a good way). I've heard some people complain that this would make the last 5 seasons a waste, but I think the exact opposite is true. What are your biggest questions now, that we're leading up to the final season? Do you seek out spoilers? Who is your favorite character, why? Do you watch LOST clips, videos, etc on ABC.com during the hiatus?

Even though I couldn't be more excited to see how the ending plays out in LOST, I will be sad when it's all over. But, the end is months away! For now, let's focus on the "now" in LOSTland, whatever and whenever that might be.

Why Is America Obbessed With Jon & Kate Plus Hate (opps) Eight?

Here's one I'll never get, Jon & Kate Plus Eight. Sure I understood in the beginning, we're all curious about the "All American" family with twins and sextuplets. It seems so overwhelming and mind blowing for anyone who's a parent of just one child. We all wanted to tune in and see how it's done. But, that's pretty much were it all ended for me.

Just look at the recap for the first episode of their TLC show, "Kate and Jon want to make sure their eight grow up with traditions and Fall is prime time for a family ritual. They take the kids to a local orchard for pumpkin and apple picking, and end the day with romping through a corn maze." Aww, that sounds so sweet!

Well, not so much for me! Watching 2 parents try to load up and get 8 kids out of the house and then attempt "normal" family activities such as excursions and errands is way to much for me. I rarely even watch TV, and when I do, it's to relax (& maybe learn in the process). Watching Jon & Kate Plus Eight is anything but peaceful. Yup, that's just what I look forward to in the evenings after I get my two kids in bed, a nice cup of tea (or glass of wine..hehe) and watching a family of 10 scream at each other. I might have a total of 2 episodes under my belt.

Okay, let's flash forward to present day. Now we have a few years of fame, money and media corruption under our belts and Jon & Kate are divorcing. No surprise to me. I can't possibly imagine how they could have a strong healthy marriage with 8 kids, volunteers, bodyguards, staff, a television crew and a camera in their face 24/7. What makes it all terrible is, they are using the media to spew and promote their hate for each other. Real classy!!

Jon recently told Good Morning America "I despise [her] because she's not speaking from the heart". That's great and I'm sure it's true. But maybe that should be shared in family counseling, not to the world via the media. I just love this picture of Jon in front of all the bikini clad babes in a pool (damn, what a family man!!), professing this love for his new soul mate, 22 year old Haily Glassman. Jon's such the catch and all (with 8 kids!), she can't possibly be with him for his money and to hang to his "fame" coat tails. :)

Anyway, these people have issues and need some in private professional help if they plan on raising their kids into being 8 self sufficient adults. Here's my point and question. If Jon & Kate are not the sort of folks who you would hang out with socially and have as role models for your children, why are so many American families wasting hours and hours still watching their shows and interviews and buying their smut mags at the grocery store and tell all books at Barnes and Noble? That is what's paying their bills and supporting their lifestyles people!!!

Further more, looks like my dreams for them fading into the background might be put on hold if Jon agrees to do the show "Divorced Dads Club" with Kevin Kederline and Michael Lohan ( 2 more great fathers). Just another stupid reality show for people to rot their brains watching. I prefer to surround myself with people and things I believe in and support, thankfully reality TV never fits the bill.
