How have you been? I shoulda never come to this blog because you're making Battlestar sound like the best shit evah... and I need to more TV in my life like I need to go into anaphylactic shock. BUT..... Edward James Olmos and his pockmarks have been repping for my people since the dawn of time, so I might have to get on this one. About 'Lost' and Faraday's insistence on going to the hatch, I think he wanted to go there to be next to something man-made, not necessarily for supplies. We know that the hatch wasn't always there, and when it was it had changed by being blown up. So Faraday could tell where in time they were by the absence, presence or condition of the hatch. Not that he did necessarily did anything with that information- but it wasn't AS sucky of a plot point as it seemed initially. The thing I hate is the clunky-ass exposition. "We have to go to the hatch!" "You mean the hatch that was formerly owned by th Dharma initiative and subsequently obliterated in a quasi-nuclear event in which the sky turn purple? That hatch?" Love and hugs xoxox Hi Sam-

But the odd part is that Lost seems to be chasing their own tail sometimes, and it shows. Yet, Moore himself said they create the story as it goes. They write, then respond. Wow, and his technique of story telling seems so much different than what appears so transparent on Lost. You nailed it on the head with the best show out there being BSG.
