The Constant

Eggtown

Tonight’s episode wasn’t as dense or thrilling as weeks past, but it still closed with a single word, a single name, that scored a palpable hit. Aaron, Claire’s baby, is one of the Oceanic Six… but calls Kate mommy. And … Continue reading

The Economist

Another fantastic episode. And the details are almost as exciting as the overall pace “LOST” is keeping. This season is no leisurely stroll (you hear me, season two?). This show is now lean, mean, and likely to leave you dizzy. … Continue reading

Trans 2008-02-08: “Confirmed Dead” – Episode 4-02

Confirmed Dead

Now that was a season premiere. Without a doubt, “Confirmed Dead” got my mind spinning and my heart pounding the way I expected last week’s episode would. Tightly paced, great twists and surprises, and real drama. “The Beginning of the … Continue reading

Trans 2008-02-04: “The Beginning of the End” – Episode 4-01

This episode of The Transmission follows the Jan. 31 episode, The Beginning of the End, the Season 4 premiere of LOST. Since we obviously can’t stop thinking and talking about LOST, Jen suggested we give podcasting another shot. But for better or worse, we’ve thrown the script out the window. Obviously we’re a bit rusty, but we still had fun, and hopefully you will too. Is this a leaner, meaner Transmission? Is this a one-off fluke? Is this a horrible mistake? Only time will tell. For the precious few that are still subscribed, enjoy! Continue reading
