Download Lost Season 6 episode 3
Episode Reviews:
The season premiere took the familiar trappings of "Lost" and tossed them upside-down and sideways. This is not particularly surprising, but it does leave the true nature of the narrative structure and purpose a bit mysterious. Is the "Lost X" timeline meant to feed into the "Lost Prime" timeline somewhere down the road, or is "Lost X" just an extended example of how "course correction" works in the "Lost" universe?
The more events in "Lost X" are revealed, the more it seems that all the differences still result in similar interactions. Ethan is still involved in treating Claire and her pregnancy. Claire chooses the name Aaron for her son. Kate befriends Claire, and Kate even seemed to be forming a kind of bond with Aaron. Kate uses the false identity "Joan Hart". These are just some of the obvious connections between "Lost X" and "Lost Prime"; others may be found in repeated viewings and closer inspection. (It should be noted that the ultrasound showed the date 22 Oct 2004, which settles the debate over when the events of "Lost X" take place, even if it is a month later than one would expect.)
Overall, for an episode that didn't seem to have very much action, a great many connections were implied. There's still plenty of room for interpretation, but the big picture is forming, and with quite a few episodes left, there's enough time to deal with the finer details.
