I figured I would start a thread for this and see what happens....there seemed to be quite a few viewers on the board for this show the past few weeks.....I like the direction the show is taking so far......episode 3 tonight at 7 central on ABC....

Mikhail, and that seems possible, but did he really actually die?

I'm pretty sure he took a spear through the chest in the underwater Hydra station.

Yeah, could have missed vital organs...but I am liking your theory now.

He took the spear and then simply vanished, which smokey already showed he could do in the Foot Statue.

Don't know if this has been posted or not, but there was some interesting stuff said on Kimmel last night...

I know.... that's an interesting point. I felt like most of the characters didn't seem to key into any memories or whatever from the the other timeline. But then you have Jack sort of remembering Des. And Charlie sayin he was supposed to die. Obviously, we don't know exactly what any of that means yet... but I'm open to the idea that there is some residual memory happening. It's possible.

Wouldn't explain what he saw while in the hostpital.

Yeah I dont think that is the case.

I wonder if Dave is actually a dead guy though or just a made up imaginary friend.

OC's right... great writing.

I wonder how the hell they could have a second season though...

Wow, you actually said this once.

P.S. I'm going back and reading this thread from the beginning, which was about 2 years before I started posting here.

Des isn't one of them. He didn't arrive to the island via the flight, which is what made his being on the plane odd.

I am tempted to go look one up and PM him with it. Or, better yet, post it on his facebook page.

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you quit with the spoilers now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

EW: The whole idea of flash-sideways and the plan to use season 6 to show us a world where Oceanic 815 never crashed — how long has that been in the works? Why did you want to do it?
DAMON LINDELOF: It’s been in play for at least a couple of years. We knew that the ending of the time travel season was going to be an attempt to reboot. And as a result, we [knew] the audience was going to come out of the “do-over moment” thinking we were either going start over or just say it didn’t work and continue on. [We thought] wouldn’t it be great if we did both? That was the origin of the story.
CARLTON CUSE: We thought just doing one [of those options] would inherently not be satisfying. Since the very beginning of the show, characters started crossing through each other’s stories. Part of our desire [in season 6] is to show that there’s still this kind of weave, that these characters still would have impacted each other’s lives even without the event of crashing on the Island. Obviously, the big question of the season is going to be: How do these [two timelines] reconcile? However, for the fans who have not watched the show closely, that’s an intact narrative. You can just watch the flash sideways — they stand alone all by themselves. For the fans who are more deeply embedded in the show, you can watch those flash sideways, compare them to what transpired in the flashbacks and go, “Oh, that’s an interesting difference.”
LINDELOF: Right out of the gate, in the first five minutes of the premiere, you get hit over the head with two things that you’re not expecting. The first is that Desmond is on the plane. The second thing that we do is we drop out of the plane and we go below the water and we see that the Island is submerged. What we’re trying to do there is basically say to you, “God bless the survivors of Oceanic 815, because they’re so self-centered, they thought the only effect [of detonating the bomb] was going to be that their plane never crashes.” But they don’t stop to think, “If we do this in 1977, what else is going to affected by this?” So that their entire lives can be changed radically. In fact, it would appear that they’ve sunken the Island. That’s our way of saying, “Keep your eyes peeled for the differences that you’re not expecting.” Some of these characters were still in Australia, but some weren’t. Shannon’s not there. Boone actually says that he tried to get her back. There are all sorts of other people that we don’t see. Where’s Libby? Where’s Ana Lucia? Where’s Eko? These are all the things that you’re supposed to be thinking about. When our characters posited the “What if?” scenario, they neglected to think about what the other effects of potentially changing time might be and we’re embracing those things.
