Season Three Spoiler Wrap Up

Lost Spoilers — August 18, 2006 at 2:29 pm by docarzt

It’s that time of year again!   Production has begun on Season Three of LOST and the spoilers have begun to flow in every shape, size, color, and smell you can imagine!   And as usual,  we have the most intriguing of the lot right here at TheTailsection.  (Note,  for regular die-hard surfers some of this might be old news.)

So without further ado… here is what we know:

Season Three has a new format and tone!  The Dharma grey of season two will be replaced with a lighter, more action-adventure oriented vibe say the producers.  Less mythology does not mean fewer answers though;  we are definitely going to find out what the others are after,  how Locke became paralyzed, why Jack got his tattoos, how Dharma relates to the island, as well as a little bit about the history of the place (maybe a little bit about four toed statues?)

The format change will be great for some, intolerable for others.   The season will be broken into two pods,  the first starting October 4th and running for six straight episodes;  the second starting THIRTEEN-WEEKS later will run to the end of the season with NO repeats.  The first six will be a mini-season with both a self contained story arc and developments that play out over the rest of the season.

Episode One is titled “A Tale of Two Cities”. Think you’re going to get a good look at the Other’s “home”?  Think again!  Jack, Kate and Sawyer find themselves being held captive in prison cells that remind them of their lives off the island.  Creepy.  Insiders say this is very reminiscent of the television show “The Prisoner”.  Meanwhile,  Bernard and Charlie try to re-establish leadership at the base camp while Rose begins to suspect that Charlie is keeping a secret about the hatch. This episode is a Kate centric flashback.

Episode Two is titled “Further instructions” Not much is known about this one other than it is Claire centric and features some hippies.  Perhaps former members of “Geronimo-Jackson”?

New characters this season include a mysterious possible-other and Jack love interest named Juliet  played by Elizabeth Mitchell; Nikki played by Kiele Sanchez, and man of mystery Rodrigo Santoro who is known as the Brazilin Tom Cruise (which means he’s hot, not a psychopathic scientologist) who American audiences might know as the stud Laura Linney melted for in “Love Actually”. 

Survivor Types.  Yes Desmond, Locke, and Eko survived!  All of them will return extremely changed by their ordeal.   During the first six episodes of the new season Locke will get his bushmen groove back; he will find himself again.  This renewed Locke will join forces with Sayid to set out on a rescue mission to save Jack, Kate, and Sawyer.


 

Penny Widmore and her high-tech crew of adventurers will be looking for the island throughout season  three;  we are also going to learn a little more about what that scene meant.

There will be flashbacks exploring the others and their history as well as their relation to Dharma.

The question of who is the father of Sun’s baby WILL be a factor in Season Three.

Maggie Grace (Shannon) has stated she will appear in season three in a characters flashback.

After Jack’s love interests are redirected to the mysterious Juliet, Kate will finally commit herself to Sawyer.

The producers have said something in episode six of the arc will be blow the audiences minds,  to the extent that some will say the show has “Jumped The Shark”.  What is this plot twist?  How could it possible polarize fans.  Is there a murmer out there of what this may be?  The answer is yes.  And here,  I have to warn you that the information is a little on the shady side but the prevailing rumor is that Jack will decide to stay with the others and his decision will cost another lost-a-way their life.  A turn to the dark-side for Dr. Jack?  That would certainly be a lot to swallow.
