Bewitched, bothered and bewildered

The recap will be posted soon, but I just wanted to jump in and say: “WOW.”

I was surprised. Saddened. Confused. And, thanks to watching Jimmy Kimmel talking with “Lost” producers, enlightened.

Sawyer and Juliet say goodbye.

Here’s what Damon and Carlton had to say:

1. We’re going to get a good dose of the numbers in future episodes.

2. May 23 is when the series will end. That’s a Sunday. Commence with your party plans.

3. It was just a coincidence that when we see Charlie on the plane, we stop seeing Desmond.

4. Mike and Walt weren’t on the plane—that was planned.

5. It was also planned that we wouldn’t see Shannon.

6. The title of the episode “LA   X” ... there is a reason for the space between those letters.

7. There is a reason why in this episode Jack was anxious when the plane experienced turbulence and Rose was calm—the opposite of what happened in the pilot.

8. It was also planned that Jack would have one less vodka bottle on the plane. (???)

9. Locke is the Smoke Monster. (duh)

10. When Kimmel asked the producers if Jacob was “living in Sayid,” they told him to watch a few more episodes because his theory may evolve.

Discuss.

P.S.  Julia declares that the bomb worked and she appears to be right—or why is the island now underwater. Atlantis?

P.P.S. Did anyone get the sense of “Lost Horizon” when Hurley and friends took Sayid to the Temple? It was very Shangri-La, to me.

The show was great! Confusing, but great.
