Review of Lost 2.07

I have to confess this, though I don't know why: last night was the first time I've seen "Lost" as it aired on tv (Thank you Netflix and ITunes!)

I actually enjoyed last night's episode very much. It was nice to set up the other side of the plane as constantly under attack. The view of the island this group has is not going to jive with the other group's view. The "tailies" have had no golf course, no supplies, no spiritual growth where people find peace and conquer fear, regret and addiciton. They have just plain been on the run. If Jack is the reluctant and caring leader, the politically popular choice to lead, Ana Lucia is a general. The front of the plane got on the plane and crashed into mystery; the tailies crashed into a warzone.

All in all, a satisfying viewing experience, though I still get the feeling that someone noticed the ratings were sky high and decided to release clues about the island more slowly to give the show a longer season to season run time.
