Well, only two episodes in, season four is looking to be one of the best LOST seasons yet. The pacing is perfect and the writing, story and mystery/answer ratio is as good as it's always been, if not better.
The flashforwards of the premiere were amazing and the on-island was a great, character-focused story, but even that was NOTHING compared to the sheer perfection of Confirmed Dead--not a minute was wasted. The blindlingly fast-pace was a great turn for the show and I hope they keep up the intensity and feeling of impending doom as the season progresses.
More soon.
