LOST -- "Confirmed Dead" -- 02.07.2008
The survivors begin to question the intentions of their supposed rescuers when four strangers arrive on the island

Anyone know how soon after the episode airs you can watch it on ABC.com? I am currently without my TV service...
I broke down and watched the first episode on ABC.com and wasn't as annoyed by the flash forward as I thought I would be, so I will probably give this season a chance.

You know what would be just smashing? If something actually happened. Or something was actually explained. Or hell, if they actually answered a question. I am all for being teased to the point of bursting, but Jesus... at some point you remove the handcuffs and screw the hell out of each other.
I actually struggle to work out why I keep watching this show these days. Hell, even when they were playing the ''these numbers are magic'' game, at least they threw us the bone of Kate washing in the sea in her underwear.

They could tease me all the way to the series finale without giving a concrete answer and I'd be happy, because the show just flat out entertains me like no other show on TV.
The most obvious answer for "what's the title mean?" would be that the passengers of flight 815 were confirmed dead. It will be really interesting to see how they (Oceanic?) explain, "Oh, there are actually 6 survivors, and they (maybe) were found thousands of miles from where the (fake) 815 wreckage was discovered." I'm guessing those 6 have a pretty good fight on their hands over the next few episodes to be allowed to leave.

To me it means how they will explain the castaways that DONT go back with them. You cant very well say they are here but dont want to leave...because that would just mean family, press etc. coming to the island. I just assume they are going to say they are dead. But of course, I've been wrong about just about everything on this show!

I swear, some people just don't "get" a show unless it starts out "Captain's log, Stardate xxxx.x" has a nice little episodic story, and ends with the Enterprise flying off into space.
I'm just sayin!

I've got to say, I'm more excited that Lost is back than I thought I would be. And I thought I would be pretty damn excited.
It's the single scripted show left that I watch live. Well, time-shifted 22 minutes live, but close enough .

I really hate commercials and really don't like how the flashbacks are handled in this ep, story wise they aren't bad, they just don't feel right.
