She went for a really BIG pile of firewood!

Beware--SPOILERS follow!!!!

O.M.W.

Was it worth the eight month wait? HELL, YES it was! Lost S.4 kicked off with a bang, a boom, and a lot of yelling last night. The new ep. seemed to go on for hours, but really was its usual 60 minute length. And why do they always answer some of our questions but leave us with new ones? So we find out that 6 people make it off the island, and three of them are Jack, Hurley, and Kate. But what about the rest of them?

And let's discuss Charlie, who looks cuter dead than alive: with less scruff and all spiffy. And those SHADES...what a ROCK STAR!

And we finally catch a glimpse of Jacob...or do we? Was it actually Jack's dead (or not dead) father in the rocking chair? (I admit, I watched this scene with closed eyes and peeked through my fingers---hey, it scares me--but I have on good authourity that Hurley saw Jack's dad in the rocker---or maybe it was Charlie. Thanks, Jeff Jenson of EW).

We also get another Oceanic connections...the detective that questions Hurley was Ana Lucia's ex-partner! And--you heard it hear first---The guy who says he is from Oceanic Air that comes to visit Hurley IS THE BLACK SMOKE IN HUMAN FORM! Well, that's my theory.

The acting/writing/and general layout of this ep actually made me forget it had been 8 months since we left the island. It felt like no time had passed at all, a true testament of these people's storytelling talents. I CANNOT wait for next week! So many answers...so many more questions...and yet even more theories! TV is back, people! Get on board!
