There's No Place Like Home

In honor of tonight’s season finale of Lost, I’ve searched and compiled clips of prior season finale endings. Take a look back and see how far the characters have come.



In a jaw dropping final scene, we finally meet the elusive Jeremy Bentham; confirmed dead.

Through the Looking Glass

In honor of tonight’s season finale of Lost, I’ve searched and compiled clips of prior season finale endings. Take a look back and see how far the characters have come.



Viewers salivated at how close the Losties were to getting off the island and Jack and Locke have another destiny confrontation. Back in the real world we get the best plot twist on the show ever when we learn that flashbacks have become flashforwards.

Live Together, Die Alone

In honor of tonight’s season finale of Lost, I’ve searched and compiled clips of prior season finale endings. Take a look back and see how far the characters have come.



With Jack, Kate and Sawyer taken into custody by Ben and co., there's no telling what will happen. We do learn just how manipulative and diabolical Ben is but as he explains, "We're the good guys, Michael." When Penny gets that phone call from the freezing chess players, it's genius.

Exodus

In honor of tonight's season finale of Lost, I've searched and compiled clips of prior season finale endings. Take a look back and see how far the characters have come.



This clip is from "Exodus" part 1, the finale of season 1. It's just an amazing scene. the Losties have built a raft together and Jin, Michael, Walt and Sawyer sail off the island hoping to bring rescue to their fellow castaways. There's a sense of trepidation, comradery, adventure and hope. Brilliant scene.



At the end of the show, we see flashbacks to the Oceanic 815 boarding and tiny pieces of the characters' personalities and back-stories. Then we skip back to the island where Jack and Locke peer into the shaft of the hatch. If Twitter had been invented back in 2004, people would probably have gotten fail whale after this cliffhanger that left people buzzing "what the hell is down that hatch!"

The Hills Recap: Playmates Bring the Drama

So it was busy last week and I didn't get to post this recap until now but here goes. The drama in this episode was almost as free flowing as the Jagermeister. Almost.





•Audrina and Lauren are shopping and talking about Frankie’s BBQ.

•Lauren tells Audrina that Brody told Jayde about their night together.

•Then Lauren adds a profound quote “It’s not fun when vacation baggage follows you home.” She’s like the Dali Lama of Beverly Hills

•Heidi is blabbing to Kimberly about Stacie the bartender’s text message to Spencer.

•Her master plan is to show up at the club Stacie texted Spencer about and have a showdown.

•Over at the BBQ, Brody tries to calm Jayde about Audrina popping into the party.

•Meanwhile at the club, Heidi and her posse arrive to hunt down Stacie.

•Stephanie uses about a million and one adjectives to describe Stacie, some of which cannot be found in any thesaurus.

•Finally, Stacie arrives and the OMGs ensue.

•Stacie plops down near Heidi and they have a friendly chat.

•Stacie tells Heidi that there will always be another “Stacie” Has Stacie been able to clone herself?

•Jayde’s having a panic attack about Audrina and she calls Frankie retarded. Awesome!

•Audrina shows up and blows some kisses at Brody and Jayde is ticked.

•So Jayde tells off Audrina and uses the f word a couple times then drowns her sorrows in a bottle of Jagermeister. She’s class all the way.

•Spencer and Heidi are back at the therapist’s office and their talking about text messages. The therapist looks like she wishes she could disintegrate them both using mind powers.

•So Stephanie and Audrina are talking about Brody and Jayde’s relationship problems. Is it weird that Audrina is suddenly an expert on relationships? Call Dr. Phil or something!

•Btw, Audrina also knows a lot about Brody. She makes it a point to say how much she knows about him and how long she’s known him.

•How many clubs are there in LA? I love how Hills cast members “run into each other” at random clubs constantly. I appreciate that MTV ensures there will be drama this way.

•Audrina and Stephanie hook up with Brody, Jayde and crew at some club and right away Jayde tells Brody to make them leave.

•Brody tells Jayde he can’t be mean so he’s gonna make her tell Audrina off.

•They all get into a ridiculous confrontation and the Aurdrina leaves so Jayde can go back to swigging Jager and full on mackin on Brody.

•Next day, Audrina and her stupid hat show up to lunch with Lo and Lauren.

•Lauren deals out some sound advice. Maybe she really is the Dali Lama of Beverly Hills!

•In therapy session, Spencer has a breakthrough and then gets choked up. Way to get into the scene Spencer.

•Lauren and Brody spend some friend time at Lauren’s second lunch of the day? I don’t know.

•In any case, Brody says his feelings lie with Jayde and I don’t think Lauren’s too happy with that answer. MTV should’ve done a Heidi flashback after she said that.

•Until next time…
