"Not Pennys boat" and "We have to go back" are two of the most iconic moments in TV history for me, and they're just a few moments apart. What an incredible episode. 10/10

[@danjquiroz]

Yeah this episode impacted my entire conception of fiction, and it made a dent in the course of my whole life honestly.

[@bibek6713]

This is the highest rated lost episode in imdb And to be fair it is the best episode of lost Love charlie that smile makes me cry every time

[@LudusAurea]

Was going to say the same thing. If there’s no other memorable moment, it’s 150% we have to go back and then the screeching tires after that when Kate reverses

[@damienjohn]

"We have to go back" is one of the all-time greatest plot twists for a TV series. I love the whole series but this is definitely where it peaked. The wait for season 4 was EXCRUTIATING.

[@rxtsec1]

technically I agree & disagree that this episode peaked cause it's my favorite episode of the series (This is my favorite show) however seasons 5 & 4 are my favorite seasons

[@danjquiroz]

YES! I used to read the theory forums between episodes and seasons...

As someone that has watched this show 16x the payoff for 3 great seasons are the 3 best seasons. My rank 5,6,4,3,2,1. 3 has the most great episodes by volume but also the most throw-aways as well.

The Flash Forward for me is one of THE most craziest things I've seen on TV. It's crazy how many of my favorite personal mechanics, scenes, tropes, etc come from this show. More impressively; I've seen a lot of 4K, 8k, high budget, 'cutting edge' visual and Audio effects since originally watching this but the feeling I get from this and a couple more upcoming episodes is almost unmatched! I love to see other peoples reactions to this show!

[@Hawk_of_Battle]

One of those top episodes of the show and, Maaaan Charlie dying gets me every time. Every time. The music in that scene too. 😭

[@astovidatu4452]

fun fact: the showrunners would code name the finale twists...this one was called "the snake in the mailbox" because you assume you know what to expect in your mailbox (Flashbacks) but don't expect to open it and find a snake (Flashforward) inside to jump out at you hehe. Pretty clever code name IMO!

[@RaffDGoat]

[@dans2376]

This cliffhanger is the peak of Lost excellence. It redefined the show from that moment showing us that they indeed left the island. Notice how Jack repeats to Kate exactly what John said to him just before taking that call. Many actual shows are deeply influenced by the way Lost shaped the narrative and used flashbacks. If you spent at least 3 years of your life watching this series, you know it remains deep in your heart as one of the great journeys of your life.

Apologies for going all "well, actually," but the best clue that what you were watching was a flash forward was Jack's cellphone. That model came out in 2007

[@MoviesAndTvShowsAreSubjective]

Didnt know that

[@freebird6591]

I doubt rick knows the difference in phone models covering a 2 year gap in the mid 2000s, but at the time at least, that woulda been a neat lil clue to catch... Ah i pity the person who did catch it, think it, then just dismiss it as a continuity error and just used a current(at the time) phone. Nice catch, dude

[@DeviousxKat]

WE HAVE TO GO BAAAACK iconic. Charlie thinks so fast - like you know what you need to say, but you don't have time or space. "Not Penny's Boat" says all it needs to.

[@pnut3844able]

Ok so the line about "get my father down here" that he said, he knows he's dead. His point was, his dad was such an alcoholic that he'd STILL be more drunk than Jack was even while dead. It was basically him being a smartass

[@freebird6591]

Ahh i like this more than the idea that he just forgot/misspoke due to drugs(due to the writers wanting us to again, think its set before the crash). Yea, that also makes the other docs subtle reaction line up abit better. Nice catch.

[@rxtsec1]

there is another scene that really couldn't happen. I work in pharmacy so technically that whole scene where he has a refill is unrealistic. that drug is what we call a C II drug meaning you can't get refills on it and a Doctor has to write a new script every time and it can't be a family member or friend who writes the script

[@CoLoJePa]

@@rxtsec1 how would you know if a friend wrote the script. I understand family members might heffer the same surname.

[@rxtsec1]

@@CoLoJePa you can''t have refills on that script and you can't call it in over the phone. yes someone close to you can write the script but they can't give you refills. each time they have to write a brand new script. some doctors who want to give refills might write a couple of scripts in advance for the patient to bring on there next refill but that's bad practice because doctor's want to usually moniter and make sure the patient is taking it correctly. if they want a new script to early that shows there abusing the drug. also if a script is too soon we as a pharmacy have the right to refuse to fill it and usually we won't return the script. additionally we might talk to the doctor to see why they want them to have it early and if the drug is expensive the insurance company will refuse to pay. and yes a member can write a script but that's very unusual cause it looks bad

[@rxtsec1]

@@CoLoJePa also a friend or family member writing a script isn't considered bad if the drug is being used correctly. though unusual there were times where the doctor was clearly honest and wasn't doing anything shady even if it was a friend or family member. most doctors unless for emergency reasons tell there friends and family to see another doctor and sometimes they would give recommendations on a well respected doctor they know

[@Donoblast]

Right there with you Eric.

[@DarkElfPaladin]

Honest question... Why do you like it? I'm not trying to hate on it, if you have the time I would really like an explanation. I want to like it but I just can't find a reason to. Watching this episode for the first time today, and there is only one part I liked. When Sawyer killed tom, it felt like he finally did one thing right. I hate his character, but for once I thought what he did made sense. To me Charlie's death just seemed so pointless, he was one of my favorite characters and I'm just annoyed at how he died. It felt cheap. I'm kinda curious why they have to go back because I want it to make sense. And right now it doesn't feel like a good scene its just confusing and seems out of character for Jack to want to go back. From the moment he was on a plane it seemed pretty clear it was a flash forward so maybe that made the scene weaker for me. I've heard so many good things about this show from so many people for years, but this season is the worst season of a show I have seen in recent memory, and I'm hoping there is something that can change my mind.

[@Donoblast]

@@DarkElfPaladin the first thing you are doing wrong is trying to like it because a lot of people like it. You don't like it? Nothing wrong with that, it's your taste, your opinion and that's fine. Why do I like it? Because it grabbed me like nothing before in my life. It's the first show I followed "live", finding ways to stay up to date living in a country where episodes came with a year-long delay. I love the characters, and when you say Jack behaves "out of character" I see someone who has been through a lot and is finally understanding that chnage is necessary, that he has to grow up.

[@Donoblast]

Maybe you have heard so much about the show now, but back in 07, the flash forward twist got most of us shocked. Charlie's death is not pointless, not only plot-wise, but it also deals with the themes of fate and destiny that the show superbly juggled through its run.

[@Donoblast]

@@DarkElfPaladin but again, if it's not for you, it's not for yoy. Don't watch something, or better said, don't keep watching something you don't seem to enjoy.

[@thesplawn]

I'm 100% sure I'm late with this prediction, but if anybody can confirm, I think I just figured out which Mandolorian mask on Eric's shirt represents which person from Blind Wave....hear me out... If you look at the R.E.A.C picture behind them on the shelf, the four colors are almost represented by each person.... Rick - being shown in red, is the red/white mask at the "12 o'clock" position. Eric - being shown in blue, is the "3 o'clock" position mask seeing as its the only mask that has blue in it. Aaron - being shown in green is the "6 o'clock" position mask cause green, obviously. Calvin - being shown in purple is the "9 o'clock" position mask since it is the one that has purple in it...and process of elimination... If anybody has already solved this, due enlighten me if my prediction is correct. I wasn't actively "TRYING" to solve it, but watching this episode kinda triggered a lightbulb in my head for some reason.

Once more, Sawyer had committed a useless act of murder . . . all for the sake of his stupid vengeance. His reason for murdering Tom was really full of shit. Tom didn't sanction Walt's kidnapping. Ben did. And I suspect that Jacob was the one who actually wanted Walt snatched. But Sawyer knew that Ben was behind the kidnapping, but had decided to blame Tom instead. And contrary to what Sawyer believed, Tom never shot him. Tom never ordered anyone else to shoot him. Instead, the moment Tom had announced intentions to take Walt, Sawyer reached for his gun and was shot by an Other who had a faster draw. But Sawyer had decided to fix his thirst for vengeance solely on Tom. Sawyer was a lot of things - including a moron and a hypocrite.
