And now for something completely different

I am just excited beyond words for tonight's episode of Lost. What is up with Juliet? Could she be more inscrutable? Is she on anyone's side but her own, and why will she see the Others in a week? Where did Rousseau disappear to, and when will she pop up again? Is Locke's evil dad really on the island or is it a mirage, like Jack's dead dad or Hurley's imaginary asylum-friend? Where is Locke now? Will Charlie actually die? Will we ever find out whether Michael and Walt made it back to civilization, and if so are they doing anything to get the Lostaways rescued? Could they team up with the tenacious and wealthy Penny? Or is Michael too guilt-ridden? Who the hell is Jacob? Why is Jack still the "leader" when his judgment is so consistently terrible? Wouldn't you pick Sayid as your leader, with his mad skillz and his unfailing ability to tell when people are lying? What's going to happen to poor pregnant Sun? Is Charlie really going to die? Is the island really invisible to the world or is Ben just bluffing? Will the Dharma Initiative food drops stop? Why wouldn't the Losties go take over Otherland's lovely little surburban camp, with its electricity and running water and comfy mattresses, and recode the security fence to keep the Others out?

I don't think we'll get all those answers tonight, but after a bumpy start to the season, they've got me hooked.
