Dear Lost, I think I love you.

You are sooooo good this season.  It's as if the so-so stuff from last season never even happened because honestly I can hardly bear to be away from the house on Thursday nights because you're just so damn good.  My eyes are glued to the screen!

So, do I have this straight?  People who "survive" (or maybe just "leave the Island") as the Oceanic 6, or otherwise (Ben was in Sayid's future), all now have flash forwards.  And people who don't (either die? or don't leave the island?) stick with flashbacks. 

But tricky, tricky, we don't necessarily know whether we're watching a flash forward or flashback sometimes, do we? Last night's episode was soooo goooood (so well done & coordinated) and sooooo heartbreaking.  And holy crap, I'm not sure I ever realized how fucking beautiful Sun is; the future her was just breathtaking.  Dang, girl.

I'm sooooo glad you started your new season in the midst of the writers' strike:  Having almost nothing but you to focus on coinciding with you being this good?  It's like a Perfect Storm!!

You are really blowing my mind. 

Smooches, Carolyn.

I'm very confused about the "Oceanic 6". Was Sayid named as one of them or was he gotten off the island by Ben? I'm very confused. And loving every minute of it!

OMG. Last night's was so f-ing good. It blew my mind when Jin wasn't running to see Sun have their baby. and that scene in the cemetery - she was excellent in last night's episode. SO GOOD.

Jenn, I thought at some point in that episode, Sayid was recognized by someone as a member of the 6. But maybe I am remember it wrong? Who knows! :)

Sayid introduces himself to the guy on the golf course as one of the Oceanic 6. So that means we've know five of them now, right? Or are we counting Aaron as the 6th?

What I'm also wondering is if dead really means dead. If the ones who didn't get off the island are dead, then why do they need to go back? Remember, nothing stays buried for long, as Locke says.

Oh, and also--sure, it was obvious that Michael would be Ben's man on the boat. But still--that reveal was really well done. And where's Walt?
