Some of my random thoughts & questions (or maybe ramblings):
I'm usually not biased about either Jack or Sawyer. I like both of them for different reasons, but both have also annoyed me at other times as well. In reality it's that damn Kate who is the problem!
While it's unfair to completely blame Jack, I understand why Sawyer does. Jack is taking the blame and putting it all on himself, which is honorable but it isn't fair to him. There's enough blame to go all around.
I had a feeling that Juliet was going to die, but I really enjoyed the Sawyer/Juliet relationship. Why couldn't it have been Kate?
So, to me it seems that there are two different realities. In reality A, they blew up the nuke. This caused them to jump in time again back to where they should have been, 2007. It also created reality B. In reality B, they never crashed on the island in 2004 and we are seeing the events roll out back in 2004.
Also, to me it looks like Sayid has been taken over by Jacob. But that almost seems too easy to put together and it's probably an intentional misdirection.
What I didn't quite get was Desmond being on the plane, before seemingly disappearing? Why does Hurley have good luck instead of bad luck?
It was also cool seeing some of the previously Losties like Arzt, Frogurt, Rose, Bernard and Boone.
Anyways, it was an amazing premiere and I already can't wait until next weeks episode.
Season...Now, I admit I take my love for Sawyer *very* seriously - it makes my love for Sam look like mere apathy by comparison, but I CANNOT believe that you honestly think Sawyer's anger with Jack is WHOLLY undeserved!!
First, I can't imagine how horrific it must be to have to watch someone you love die - not ONCE, but TWICE(!!!!) because some barely competent doctor with a freaking God complex that would put Patrick Drake to shame had the audacity to want a do-over for "everyone" because he FUBAR'd his OWN pathetic life.
Second, how many times does Sawyer have to demonstrate his maturity and selflessness before you acknowledge that Jack's stupid halo has been crooked and tarnished since DAY ONE?

I think I agree with everything you said Sawyer and Juliet were great. I like Kate too, even if she is a flip-flopping man-hopping fool... I don't really mind who she ends up with.
I can't wait to see what happens with the alternate realities. Right now, I'm hoping they don't end up merged, 'cause I have a feeling that would lead to lots of death and destruction :/
How could Locke annoy anyone? Me not understanding. Please explain Luke and samrocks.
Jack doesn't deserve the blame and here's why. First, when the ones that left the island came back Jack, Kate, Hurley and Sayid had NO idea that they would be sent back to the 1970's. Did Sawyer or Juliet take the time to think why that happened and why those four came back. Why not Sun? Her husband was stuck in the 70's too. And that's another thing. Sawyer and Juliet could have their happiness but not Jin. Not once did they think about how miserable he must have been. As far as Jin was concerned he was never going to see his wife again and would never see his child. All Sawyer and Juliet did was complain about how Jack's return was ruining their lives. If that's not selfishness than I don't know what is.
Also, it was Daniel's idea to redo the plane crash NOT Jack's. And Jack's reasoning for detonating the bomb was the SAME reasoning that Juliet had. A broken heart. The moment Sawyer looked at Kate when Rose and Bernard talked about love he sealed Juliet's fate.
I have more to say on this topic but I'm really lazy today. lol
Also, it was Daniel's idea to redo the plane crash NOT Jack's.
True, but when Daniel died, JERK is the one who kept that dream alive! Just because Sawyer felt some nostalgic pangs over Kate's return doesn't justify Dr. Jerk going rogue and doing things the way he wanted when he wanted. Sawyer was BEGGING Juliet not to let go, and he went into that hole with a QUICKNESS once he realized she was still alive.
Did Sawyer or Juliet take the time to think why that happened and why those four came back.
I have no idea why speculating over the return of Hurley & Co. has anything to do with why Dr. Jerk blows or why Sawyer is selfish as you claim.

Yeah RIGHT! The ONLY thing Dr. Jerk seems to excel at is MAKING THINGS WORSE, so I would start pooping bricks if he risked blowing my cover, too. Thank GAWD someone got rid of his stash, otherwise he would have been all boozed up throughout the entire ordeal.
If Juliet and Sawyer were selfish because they were happy in 1977 what about Jack and Daniel's selfishness in wanting the do over - did they give any thought to what they might trigger for the people on the island and those that were going to come to the island in the next 30 years.
Really if you look at it, Locke was the one that accepted his fate and made the best of where he was. Jack constantly railed against his fate and made it worse every time he tried to get them off the island.
Sure it was a little unfair for Sawyer to solely blame Jack, but in all fairness its not unnatural for a person to lash out immediately after the death of a loved one AND I think he sort of blames Jack for a series of misteps and this was more the straw that broke the proverbial camel's back. Lets not forget, for a while Sawyer was the defacto leader both in the current timeline and in the 77 timeline and things ran pretty smoothly. Then Jack comes back and disaster follows.

One of my favorite moments had to be when Not John was describing John to Ben. Ben's face the whole episode was priceless.
The one that drives me nuts is Locke. Can't stand him.

I want Jack dead. Period.
**Dr. Jerk Shepard must DIE.**
Luke...Locke-Locke used to irritate the EFF out of me, but Fake-Locke is effing AWESOME.
I think I agree with everything you said
