The LOST finale, revisited

August 17th, 2010 by Ms Terri · 6 Comments · 6x17-18 Finale: "The End", Brought here for a reason, Polls

Almost two months ago, I got a question (actually more like a comment) on the Ask a Question page from Mark Stouffer. I’d been feeling so traumatized by the finale that after my initial flurry of posts, I didn’t want to think about it any more. Time heals all wounded expectations, and now I’m ready [...]

Sneak Peak #1 for 6×14 “The Candidate” — Jack and Flocke (slightly spoilerish)

April 28th, 2010 by Ms Terri · No Comments · 4x13 There's No Place Like Home, 6x14 The Candidate, Brought here for a reason, Jack versus Locke, Locke (Terry O'Quinn), Promos and sneak peeks

(Warning: This post contains a brief quote of the dialogue from the sneak peek, and a discussion of the scene.) In this scene from 6×14, Jack and Flocke are disagreeing with each other. Watching it, I got a feeling of deja vu, because we’ve become so used to seeing similar scenes of Jack and (real) [...]

Sneak Peek #1 for 6×13 The Last Recruit — slightly spoilerish

April 15th, 2010 by Ms Terri · No Comments · 6x13 The Last Recruit, Brought here for a reason, Promos and sneak peeks

Jack asks Flocke questions — and Flocke answers! You know the show must be getting very close to the end when we start getting some answers! Of course, Flocke might be lying, in which case his answers wouldn’t really be answers. We’ll find out soon enough. There’s something in this clip I found especially interesting [...]

Science versus faith: Science wins

March 10th, 2010 by Ms Terri · No Comments · 6x07 Dr. Linus, Brought here for a reason, Faith versus science, Jack (Matthew Fox)

“For a reason” is the catchphrase that inspired the name of this blog, the one phrase that seemed to best capture the central mystery of the show. Originally, it was a phrase associated most strongly with Locke, something that Locke, as the man of faith, would say to Jack, the man of reason.   Jack [...]

The complete list of “For a Reason” references

September 16th, 2009 by Ms Terri · No Comments · Brought here for a reason, Rewatch

I missed the big group rewatch put on by DocArzt and Lostpedia, but I’m going to be starting my own little private rewatch this week, when I’ll be getting the DVDs from the library and watching LOST all over again from the beginning. I probably won’t be writing a lot of commentary (see Fishbiscuitland and [...]

Matthew Fox (Jack) gets his turn at “Ask Lost”

June 25th, 2009 by Ms Terri · No Comments · Ask Lost, Brought here for a reason, Interviews, Jack (Matthew Fox)

Did you ever see the old Groucho Marx TV show, You Bet Your Life? It was a game show where contestants answered questions in various categories. In each episode, there was also a “secret word.” A toy duck was lowered from the ceiling with the secret word in its beak, so that the audience could [...]

Locke tells Jack that he is not supposed to [...]
