    This is brilliant. Hooray for the new girl! I might now start watching Lost.... no, no, I want to retain my status as THE ONLY person in the world who has not fallen into it!

    Megs, resistance is futile. Oh and great article Bethy. I too am a hopelessly lost fan of Lost :)

    congrats on the new column!...while I have to admit I'm still a Lost virgin and never had an episode pull me in like many others... I understand it's appeal to others, still my favourite island themed show has to be Is Harry On The Boat?...I like my island shows littered with nudity and sex challanges that involve points and a board game..lol..plus it's set in Ibiza, a slighty more fun island to be trapped on

    I've never seen Lost, either,but damn, that's one fine looking guy.
  • Tricia · 7 months ago
    Okay, Okay I give up. I can't stand it a moment longer. This is the final tipping point.__After reading this.... I am too intrigued and WILL immediately buy all Lost seasons and spend next weekend catching up with the world. Great column!
  • BethanyP · 7 months ago
    Thanks so much, Tricia. Glad you enjoyed it! Let us know what you think of LOST...I, for one, am a new convert. :)

    Reading this reminded me of an age when I, like Kate, was torn between the good doctor and the bad cowboy. But that was ages ago. Too bad.
  • BethanyP · 7 months ago
    What was the outcome? I'm interested!
  • phrenetik · 7 months ago
    Still torn! I'm waiting for one of them to glue me up though. Lol.

    But don't girls naturally gravitate toward the bad cowboys with a good-doctor heart? :P

    Anyhow, keep the column going! Much loves. *rarr* XD
  • BethanyP · 7 months ago
    Thanks ladies! Keep on tuning in for more of the sexy. Have I ever steered you wrong? ;)

    Love love LOVE LOST. My mom and I had a debate over who'd be better in bed -- Shephard or Sawyer. Without a question, Sawyer wins. He'd be able to do you right, some good headboard-shakin' stuff. Might even throw you on LaFleur if yaknowwhahimsayin.

    I feel like that is an uncomfortable conversation to have with your mother. Especially if Dad is sitting on the couch too.

    -swoon- Sawyer had me from episode one and while I'm currently VERY far behind with this season, I must admit I do miss my weekly dose of this sexy man.

    Nice article I look forward to next Monday's piece, Bethany!

    Good job! Your next one should be about Stevie from Eastbound and Down. Peace!!

    Maybe it's my crippling lack of self-esteem, but I feel drawn to Locke too, for kinda different reasons (i was never really drawn to brando after he went to seed btw.) I think part of it is his capability to take care of a gal in oh so many ways, part the shaved head, and also the fact that he's got his heart on his sleeve about the island, his total belief in it and all. And he's kind of, not someone you pity, but you do wanna ease his pain.
    Dammit, Thursday cannot come soon enough.
  • Bethany P · 7 months ago
    glad to hear from a minority view. there's definitely something to be said for locke, so bald creepers everywhere - rejoice!

    B - as someone who's been after Sawyer's ass (as in had his picture on my myspace circa 2004) since the inception of Lost, I like what you've done here. And while you have, as any typical Lost baby, missed some of the intricacies involved in his hotness you've got the right message.

    As far as John Locke is concerned though, I only have one word. Yick. Maybe I have two more words. Old balls.

    Keep up the good work!

    I resonate; props to the new girl for shiz. Not that I plan on commenting on the sinewiness of bad boys growing old(ala Mark Harmon. hubba hubba), as a guy, I get that there is definitely a masculine grace that comes with acting one's age.

    and on a personal note, not only does said new girl turn a pretty phrase, she looks quite killer in a black dress & heels. even if her dog does smell.

    gangsta, baby. gangsta.

    I just started Lost as well. I'm a straight male, but I'll grant you the Sawyer thing. I've always hated how girls like the Bad Boy, but Sawyer's got just enough good in him that it shines through his assholeishness. And yeah, he's got good hair and an accent.

    But Kate...Oh, Kate. Or 'Freckles,' which is a great nickname. She is absolutely stunning.

    This is a completely substanceless post, but I don't give a rats ass.
