Lost: Flashes Before Your Eyes (2007) Season 3, Episode 8

So many twists and turns it could be a half clove hitch!!!

[10/10 · 2 February 2008]

See you in another life Brother (said with a Scotish accent! This is an amazing episode revolving around Desmond. You will be left with so many questions and a few answers "...your gonna die Charlie".

The episode contains flashbacks? of Desmond. He can see the future (or the past)back in England with his girlfriend Penny, but he can remember the island. Little things like his alarm clock remind him of pressing the button and "saving the world".

I cannot really explain this episode. It left me in a state of awe and really sums up the lost series for me in the way they both entertain whilst making you think about life, beliefs and religion.

This is definitely in my top 5 lost episodes along with the season 2 and 3 premiers, walkabout and the episode where Boone climbs into the yellow plane.

Lost: The Beginning of the End (2008) Season 4, Episode 1

Good episode, but nothing special.

I personally thought this episode was very clever and good to watch, but so are the other 71 episodes of lost (not counting stranger in a strange land because it was awful) and for a season premiere it left me wanting more. I was expecting a repeat of the season 2 and 3 premiers which left me in a state of shock for days. It will not make it into my lost top 5 episodes.

The episode revolves around Hurley so you can expect to see a lot of weird things that bring Hurley's sanity into question again.

There were some very interesting moments that leave you with a reel of questions, which will no doubt be answered in this season. For example (do not read on if you have not seen this episode)...

...when Hurley is in the grounds of the hospital he sees Charlie, but he is not the only person to see him. One of the other patients tells Hurley that Charlie is there, so at least two people can see dead(?) Charlie.

...when Hurley sees Jacobs cabin. Does he find Jacobs cabin or is it him going crazy again? In season three, the white ash around the cabin is pointed out by Ben, but it is not referenced in this episode - is this left out for a reason?
