Congrats man! That's awesome.

I agree. In fact, it's not just Joel's best explosion - it's the best explosion *ever*. :)

This is a classic, Joel. Seriously, I'm grinning from ear to ear. Excellent script; you write hillbillies disturbingly well. :)

I had no idea this was coming out but, after seeing the trailer, it's already one of my favorite shows of all time.

I've been reading comments from the Screen Rant post, and researching references from its comments, for the past two hours. Really interesting stuff. Thanks for the link!

Those are some interesting points about the Smoke Monster. If Fake Locke (let's call him Brian since I don't think there's been a character named Brian on the show yet) is the Smoke Monster then that would explain why the Brian (as the Smoke Monster) let Ben live and told him to follow Fake Locke's direction. I think you're right in that Brian has also been fake other people too - Christian, Boone, and others. The Smoke Monster grabbed his enemies and pulled them underground - I can only assume that they went to the temple, where Brian kills them and is then able to duplicate their physical characteristics.

So now we need to figure out where Jacob, Brian, and Richard (referred to as "Ricardos" in the finale) really came from, what their ties are, and where their magic came from.

Damn Lost - a year without a new episode is too long! Next season is going to absolutely rock.

Kate was a stripper? I don't remember that in any of her backstory episodes, but SWEET!

Regarding somewhere online to watch Fringe:

Officially: You can watch the whole season on Fox.com - http://www.fox.com/fod/play.php?sh=fringe# - but that requires you to install the Move Player, which I guess is some sort of Flash overlay, and that kinda sucks.

Unofficially: Torrents. isohunt.com. I'm not sayin', but I'm sayin'.

I've never seen this either but, after reading Joel's gray note in the middle of the post, I *need* to. Even if it's utter horsepoop, it would be horsepoop that turns into a magical butterfly and I need to experience that for myself.

My guess is motor oil. He fed the pigs motor oil via baby bottle every day since birth. It makes the pigs' coats shiny, and their flesh juicy and tender.
