Wow, you know you like a show on TV and start writing about it and all of a sudden you’ve got fans and followers of your own! A couple of weeks ago I wrote that I would be moving my LOST posts and things having to do with LOST over to a new blog called, creatively I think, What Happened On LOST. I’m still getting tons of traffic here at Life In the Internet looking for information on LOST though and I just wanted to remind everyone, or let you know for new guests, that all my LOST updates and recaps are now over at the new site What Happened On LOST. So head on over and check it out.

First things first…the next new episode of LOST on ABC airs tonight at at 10pm eastern / 9pm central. DON’T MISS IT!

Now, on to the reason for this post! Since I started writing about LOST this season, I’ve gotten a HUGE response from people reading and checking up on what happened on the show. So huge in fact that I’ve decided to spin-off a new site just for this purpose. I got really creative with the name too… it’s called What Happened On Lost. Shocking right?

I’ll put a link over in the right sidebar to make it easier to find and you can always bookmark What Happened on LOST after you get over there. The new URL is even easy, it’s: http://www.WhatHappenedOnLost.info! (Notice the .info and not .com)

Ok, so no update here tonight, you’ll have to read all about it over on What Happened On Lost! Thanks for visiting and subscribing, hope to keep you as a reader! BTW, if you go over there to check it out, be sure to leave a comment and let me know you stopped by!

Thanks again,

Thom

Tonight’s episode on the hit ABC series LOST was called Meet Kevin Johnson and is a Michael centric episode.

This is a continuation of our series on the hit ABC series LOST. If you missed the previous installments, check here. If the whole LOST thing isn’t making much sense to you, you can get caught up on previous seasons of LOST here.

AS the ep opens, we get a review of who Michael is, what he did and how he got off the island…reminding us of all the reasons those left on the island have to dislike him. And if there were any question about whether they like him or not, we’re reminded by Sawyer (Josh Holloway) during a lostie meeting held in one of the barrack houses. During the meeting Ben reveals Michael is “his man” on the freighter and Locke tells the group they now have to protect Ben because the freighters will kill our losties after they retrieve Ben.

Back on the freighter Sayid (Naveen Andrews) and Desmond witness the Captain of the freighter beating the snot out of some guy on the deck. He claims he’s doing so to remind everyone what happened the last time someone tried to leave without his permission (uh, hello… bring us up to speed will ya!)

Sayid then finds a quick and quiet moment to question Michael about how he came to be on the island…again, and prompting our first flash of the evening. During the flash Michael appears to be driving around New York in a crappy green car in an attempt to kill himself? He only managed to land in the hospital. Then we see him trying to get past his mom to see Walt, clearly after the plane crash based on the dialog. They made it back but can’t tell anyone…hhhmmm.

Things don’t seem to be all that great with Michaeld and Walt as him mom wouldn’t let him pass. Michael catches a glimpse of Walt in the window and Walt hides. Next he goes to a pawn shop, gets a gun, and goes to an alley to kill himself…only to be interrupted by Tom (or Mr. Friendly, which ever you prefer). So it looks like this is between Michael and Walt leaving the island and before Tom gets killed on the beach. It also means Tom could come and go from the island as well. Was he keeping an eye on Michael?

In a strange conversation between Michael and Tom, Tom tells him that that the Island won’t let him kill himself. Michael goes to Tom’s hotel suite (where we find our that Tom is GAY (remember he said Kate wasn’t his type!)) where Tom reveals to him Widmore did in fact stage the wreckage of Flight 815. Widmore did so to keep the island to himself! Because the “Others” don’t want that, Tom was sent to push Michael into an undercover job on the freighter with the ultimate objective of killing everyone on the freighter!

(BTW, we’ve just been through what I think is the longest flash of the series)

When Michael arrives at the freighter in Fiji he finds a care package from Tom, presumably with guns to kill the crew…but he won’t open it now that he’s met some of them. When he finally does open it, inside is a black case that he opens to find a big ole booming bomb! Just as he’s about to start the detonation sequence we get a creepy visit from Libby warning him off…but he does it anyway and after the countdown… a note saying “NOT YET”… what the crap?

Still in the flash, Michael get a “phone call” via the radio room from Ben where Ben tells Michael he is to compile a list of people on the freighter, then disable the radio room, then the engines.

Michael agrees and we’re suddenly beck to present on the freighter and Sayid promptly snatches Michael up and rats him out to the ship’s captain.

Back on the island, Karl, Alex and Russo have been slipped secret directions to the Temple by Ben where he believes they will be safe. On the way, Karl and Russo are shot dead…so much for being safe, huh! To this Alex jumps up, throws up her hands and proclaims she is Ben’s daughter…and the episode ends there!

We get a little bit of a mid-season break here. The next new episode won’t be on till April 24th at a new time 10e/9c. Hope I can wait that long…
