True Blood is the only reason I keep HBO can't wait for the new season...I think it is up there with the sopranos and six feet under

Remember when Michael appeared to Hurley, he said he was not allowed to leave the Island. Just like the MIB. He wasn't allowed into this sideways world and thus, was not afforded the opportunity to move on. Why? Because he had proven himself to be unworthy with his actions on the Island. He failed the test. The others, passed. They made it into Sideways world when they died -- some before Jack, some years later. In Hurley's case, maybe centuries later. They exist in this sideways world until they are "awakened" and they can only move on TOGETHER because they are linked. They are destined to be together for eternity. That was their destiny.

They were NOT linked to Anna Lucia, Daniel, Roussou, Alex, Miles, Lupidis, (and all the rest who weren't in the church -- basically everyone who wasn't in season 1). Yet those people exist in Sideways world. Why? Well again, here's where they leave it up to you to decide. The way I like to think about it, is that those people who were left behind in Sideways world have to find their own soulmates before they can wake up. It's possible that those links aren't people from the island but from their other life (Anna's partner, the guy she shot --- Roussou's husband, etc etc).

A lot of people have been talking about Ben and why he didn't go into the Church. And if you think of Sideways world in this way, then it gives you the answer to that very question. Ben can't move on yet because he hasn't connected with the people he needs to. It's going to be his job to awaken Roussou, Alex, Anna Lucia (maybe), Ethan, Goodspeed, his father and the rest. He has to attone for his sins more than he did by being Hurley's number two. He has to do what Hurley and Desmond did for our Lostaways with his own people. He has to help them connect. And he can only move on when all the links in his chain are ready to. Same can be said for Faraday, Charlotte, Whidmore, Hawkins etc. It's really a neat, and cool concept. At least to me.
So LA X is like The Nexus from Star Trek Generations or The Matrix without the computers.

A couple of WTHs, so Michael was not good enough for the sideways world, but Keamy and Mikhail were? Then again they both died there. So did they go to hell after being killed again or where they just cardboard cutout characters like Jacks son who were not really there?

This writer implies that the rest of the cast (Anna Lucia, Daniel Faraday, Charlotte, Whidmore, Hawkins, Roussou, Alex, Miles, Lupidis, etc) are real and are really there, but I am wondering about Lockes Helen. I mean she dumped him in real life and was NOT with him in the Church at the ending, so was she not really there to move on? Just a cardboard cutout or NPC for the main players to interact with. What about Oceanic stewardess Cindy? Is she stuck doing Hughes Net commercials in the purgatory world because she only gave Jack one bottle of scotch this time?

I'm going to vote that they are "NPCs". Sounds good to me, but is also sort of a let down. So basically Locke didn't get to leave with Helen - but he probably loved the Island more than he'd ever love anyone else. Maybe that's why she wasn't there. Smilie

I've been wondering the same thing. There's no broadcast shows I follow anymore. There's a number of premium cable shows I watch, but I always wait until they come out on disc:

True Blood: Is a little bit of a love story but more interesting then the teeny bopper vampire love stories, but it's also a mystery and interesting with the vampires coming out in public aspect.

Weeds: This show just keeps getting more and more out there, it's almost gone too far. However, I liked season 1 so much I watched it straight through.

Tudors: Show times version of Rome.

Madmen: Is another well done show.

I used to watch the office but fell off this season, I'll check it out when it comes out on disc or netflix watch it now.

Could not agree more. That show was one of the funniest shows I have ever seen and then it turned to near crap but I still watch it.

Doesn't hurt that Nancy is drool

Best show I'm watching right now is Breaking Bad. I canceled my HBO and Showtime and don't plan on bringing either back until Dexter returns.

That's right, I forgot about Dexter. I like a lot of the HBO/showtime shows, but I can't justify paying for cable with the premium channels for them. If they had ala cart cable pricing I'd probably get cable. I'm just fine waiting the 6 months for the shows to come out on disc. There's enough of them that I'm interested in that a new season of some show comes out every month or two, and then I can zip through them all without having to wait a week.
