I wonder why Kate was so sore at Locke in Through the Looking Glass, saying she would not have gone to funeral even if she had known about it.
I just started watching this show. One of my friends brought the DVD of the first season over a couple of weeks ago, and we've been watching it each weekend. Very addicting show, I was very impressed.
So, I'm a novice, but I already have a prediction about the island. May sound goofy, but my guess is that the island is some kind of destination having to do with the Bermuda Triangle, or something like that.
That's still a popular prediction. I remember some of the predictions over the years have ranged from them being dead (one the writers are placating to, a bit) a dream, an alien experiment, A drug induced experiment by the Gov, virtual reality, an area sensitive to metaphysic energy due to being atop of some prominent ley lines, etc.. I used to go on the lost forums at ABC. It was a lot of fun debating everyone wild theories.
Yeah, man, thats cool that you are getting into the show. If the second or third season get a little dry or redundant to you, i would suggest you keep watching because both seasons end on a high note.

Same thing happened to me.
I heard about the show, but never watched it, but I rented it one weekend because I was bored and I was hooked.
Very, very good production and storytelling for a TV show. It really feels like a movie.
It also helps that I think that the pilot, and first season are one of the best to come out for TV. That pilot was ****ing amazing. Much better than the pilot from Heroes.

Same here. For some reason I could never catch this show at its normal time. One day I rented disc 1 of the first season and was hooked. I think I watch the whole 1st season in a weekend.
Like Backfire, I just started watching this show 3 weeks ago......and have watched it start to finish.
My wife borrowed season 1 dvd set from her friend like 2 months ago. We were bored on a saturda morning and put it in to see what all the hub-bub was about. Needless to say we did absolutely nothing else that day.
3 Days later she got seasons 2 and 3. We watched all of those. Since season 4 doesn't release until Dec. on dvd, we watched the entire season on ABC.com from her laptop.
amazing show. great writing. I'm truely impressed. It is addictive. I watched all 4 seasons back to back.......some days watching 12-15 episodes and doing nothing else.
I'm a newb but have seen every episode you guys have seen so I'll throw my hat into the ring as far as theories.
The island is a time warp. When Ben moved it, he didn't move it in space......he moved it in time. This could be the possible reason he woke up in Tunisia in Oct. of 2005........10 months later. John's funeral wasn't until 2007 so they could have moved the island to any time between '04 and '07. Adam and Eve are Desmond and Penelope. Somewhere in the future Penelope will come to the island and both will be transported back in time, live on the island and die in the caves where Jack discovered Adam and Eve. The island was somehow designed by an advanced race in the future (or perhaps distant, unknown past). The people who inhabitted it did not age. Richard is the leader of the survivors of this civilization. He taps others (Ben,John) to be the leader of the group on the island to ensure if it ever needs moved, he will not be the one banished from it as whomever moves it can never return. I don't know if there are any other original "others" as Richard tapped Ben and both have been recruiting people to the island to work. He may be the only original inhabitant left.
my best guess is that there is some great cataclysm in the future and the island is sent back in time to allow all events from Black Rock crashing to the Dharma Initiative to take place leaving Desmond in the hatch to cause 815 to crash, stranding those specific people on the island as some sort of universal course correction. The examples of fate and unknown interaction between survivors is all to place them on 815 to land on that island and correct the course of the future.....to save the world.

Dude, that was awesome.
furthermore, I believe that Charles Widmore once held the position as leader of the "others". he was on the island when the Black Rock crashed. He purchased the diary of Black Rock's second mate to conceal the fact that he is mentioned in it...or because it is his own. He moved the island and was bannished. He has been searching for the island since. How he knows Ben, I'm not sure.......unless Widmore's search has led him to Richard and Ben off-island as Penelope is too old to allow for Widmore to be the leader on the island when Ben first joined as a boy.
somebody asked if Walt would have to return to the island. I don't believe so. His purpose on the island has been fullfilled. His purpose was to be kidnapped, sending Michael out to find him....bringing Jack,Cate, Hurley and Sawyer to the others....setting up the events that happened in season four as Michael came back on the freighter, leading to the current events of the island being moved. (that and the fact that there's no way a 15 year old boy is going to pass for 10...or even 13 if the events of the next season take place 3 years in the future when the Oceanic 6 return to the island). Walt is just like Boone...a pawn. His presence was needed on the island simply to lead the other characters on the path of their destiny to save the world. If Boone hadn't made the plane fall.....no Yemme for Eko to find....no question mark for Eko to see to discover the hatch underneath.
Ofcourse, this is all probably wrong......we'll find out who Jacob is and it will completely f-ck everything up. I do, however, believe that Jeremy is just another original like Richard......or perhaps a slave that was on the Black Rock and Richard was one of the crew.
whether they were both originally on the island or if both crashed in Black Rock, I still think the island itself was sent back in time as a course correction to prevent a cataclysm from happening in the future. All the events that have happened in all the lives of the members of 815 have been fate leading them to the crash on the island to correct the course of the future.
