Sophrstrcat~_;:i '..<,-.'.w:‘ So, the fourth most implausible US show of recent years (after, probably, 24. comedy show of recent times lwhich have stirer now become so used to Prison Break and The Apprentice) returns where it left off: with a bang. Ill a world that contains Green ll/Ing, subtitles that you .'.'onder unto? was; Reprising the very first scene of the show, we see the opening of an eye Nrghty Night and Dinner/ad/es rs saying going on :n the heads of ttlt? prr wluwu and soon get a half clue (Lost is in love with its own half-clues) about who something». A nice couple get their when they thought that it might he a or what might be down the quarantine-marked hatch.

Neighbours who about France's cheguered \.'\.':>r!u Cut, recurring numbers mean? turn out to be terrorists waging war on history we get the br.'arre sight 9‘ Each new series of a show requires some fresh blood and so Gir/fight's
ass-kicking Michelle Rodriguez comes on board to, well. kick some ass and, if it counts as a new character, Jack‘s sense of hope makes a return. JJ Abrams and his writing cronies have admitted that they know where the show is heading, but that they‘re not quite certain how to get there. But the fear for the makers must be that giving us so little closure on even the most marginal of the show‘s mysteries will surely only result in alienating those who have stayed loyal from the beginning. There are only so many tenterhooks in the world. (Brian Donaldson)
