The words are from Tom McRae's song, "One more Mile", but this isn't about Tom(I suppose that the icon gave it away!). Instead of one more mile we actually have a few months to wait now, until the last season of Lost.

The 84-minute finale felt too short but gave me enough food for thoughts. So here we go...

I don't know if I should be punished but, instead of marking papers in the afternoon I downloaded the last episode of Lost, "Dead is Dead" and then I watched it...

Here comes a long review with a lot of Egyptian stuff.

I love that show  )


In other news I really hope that Fox isn't going to cancel Terminator:The Sarah Connor Chronicles. It has flaws but I'm hooked, and it's funny to watch the birth of A.I on that show especially since I'm reading Richard Powers' Galatea 2.2 .

Did I say how much I love Richard Powers? He's really becoming my favourite American writer, along with Daniel Mendelsohn.

I haven't posted for a while but no I haven't vanished, I just took a  step away for RL was busy and I wasn't in the mood for LJ. Yeah it's that feeling of being disconnected again. But [info]sister_luck  managed to lure me back online. ;- )

I watched my tv shows though.

I have also seen the two last episodes of Dollhouse and the Terminator:The Sarah Connor Chronicles ones.

This week has been hectic so far and I'm bound to Marking Hell still for a while(at least tomorrow and on Saturday). Today it was non-stop work, from 8:00 to 16:30, I did not have lunch time(I'm supposed to have a break off teaching between 12:40 and 13:05 but I had stuff to do) and I left the school feeling exhausted which isn't surprising. I didn't even get a break to go to the loo during the whole day (I swear it's true) and ran from the subway exit to my place because I soo needed to pee. TMI?

So when I came back home I fed the cats, after relieving my bladder, and went out to the hairdresser. Yeah I was too tired to go shoe shopping.

Next week is gonna be tough too, for I have term meetings on Monday and Tuesday evening after the class. I won't leave the school before 20:00 at best. I'm going to spend 11 hours at school on Monday and I will miss my piano lesson on Tuesday. :-(

In case you wonder the connection between the title of this post and the content so far...the reason is that I've just watched Lost. But I suppose that my icon gave it away.

 ETA: Speaking of Lost, MSN has pictures from "behind the scenes": http://tv.msn.com/gallery/lost-behind-the-scenes/?photoidx=1

I know Locke wasn't really on yesterday's episode but Terry O'Quinn rocks. What a beautiful man.

This one is my favourite )

I love Locke-centric episodes ! John Locke has always been my favourite character...until a certain Desmond appeared and gave the show that romantic touch it lacked.

The camera just loves Terry O'Quinn's face, and those beautiful eyes of his, and the way he smiles. I guess it is what they call charisma.

I'm supposed to mark papers and I'm going to...but I need to write down my thoughts on the last episode of Lost before entering Marking hell again.

BSG 4.5 starts in 8 days ! The ten last episodes of the best tv thing we've had since Buffy!

I wonder if anyone from my flist has been following the Sci-Fi "You Will Know The Truth" clues...16 so-called clues have been "revealed" so far.

Read more... )

And Lost's new season begins on the 21th, so there will be more stuff to ponder soon...

Also I know I said last year that I would not watch Nip/Tuck anymore...Well, I'm weak. I gave in and watched episode 5x15...Nothing spectacular, as expected (the parallels have become sooooo not subtle), but I'm  a sucker for Sean/Christian and Christian/Liz !

I might have indulged in such bad treat because I'm having my implants surgery tomorrow morning, but in my case it's titanium in my jaw bone, not silicone in my chest. Is it the beginning of my turning into an artifical creature?

Enough !

I'm taking a break from Marking Hell to post about my tv shows. I'm caught up for I watched Lost and BSG before going to bed yesterday. Both shows were brilliant !

I'm having troubles with my Internet connexion lately.

First off, a very happy yet belated birthday to [info]fishsanwitt. I hope it was great!

Secondly, two quick "reviews" of Lost and BSG. Spoilers under the cut.

Yesterday I saw There Will Be Blood...I wasn't really blown away despite some interesting stuff and intense scenes (at the beginning of the film mostly). Probably too Bible-oriented for my taste.

*spoilers under the cut*


What can I say? I'm more Greek-oriented. By the way speaking of Daniel and D men...I watched Lost again.



Re-watching old stuff

I re-watched The Untouchables again. I just can't help it, every time it's on tv I have to watch it...Once upon a time Kevin Costner was on a good movie, wasn't bad at acting and had those beautiful green eyes. He was so touching when Sean Connery died in his arms. *sniff*

Also the finale of Lost was on tv tonight, dubbed in French of course...

I watched Lost yesterday in the evening before burying myself in the reading of a Connelly's crime novel. I really enjoyed the episode. I've been very critical of the writing lately but last night I find it quite good.

No, despite my new addiction to Life On Mars,  I didn't forget to download Lost.

Grey's Anatomy has been rather disappointing lately but I may give it another try.

So many shows, so little time...

The last episode wasn't as good as Exposé but I'm still enjoying Lost. It was about being an outcast, mind games and denial...

The mystery that is Lost

  • Apr. 4th, 2007 at 1:30 PM
Vermeer, woman in yellow
Lost is a mystery for me because the quality is so fluctuating you never know what to expect. When it's good it can be brilliant but when it's bad it's really bad and in between we get episodes showing poor writing and inspired stuff or great acting at the same time...

Yesterday I watched last week's episode finally. If you want to discuss it, [info]comava or anyone else, now I can !

I've been thinking of Lost finale while marking my last papers. I need to write my thoughts down before I resume my marking.
