Ms. Penelope, we found it

WTF? With “Live Together, Die Alone” Lost Season 2 is over and the dam has been blown. Henry sends father and son home and the soldier only finds empty huts, a decoy. Something totally unfamiliar to him I guess. And then there is Desmond. Good old Desmond and his “sodding” Charles Dickens book “Our Mutual Friend”. Desmond has the key to make it all go away and he uses it. Love always finds a way. Does it? Even if it involves 2 weird Portuguese guys somewhere at the north pole (or somewhere cold at least) waiting for some gigantic electromagnetic discharge. What does it all mean? As Henry said, they are the good guys and we will have to wait until November.

Life As We Know It – The Complete Series (2005)

Life As We Know It - The Complete SeriesTo be honest I would never have watched this series were it not for Shane. This DVD Box was in my review pile and after serious doubts in the beginning I gave it a chance. After the third episode I found myself racing through them, not to get it over with but because “Life As We Know It” was indeed entertaining. Check out the full DVD review over at eyecravedvd.com.

At the beginning of the pilot Ben Conner (Jon Foster) tells us what teenagers think about and how often: sex, every 15 seconds. Ben thinks about it every 5 seconds and even less. The series evolves around three guys who are sophomores at Seattle’s Woodrow Wilson High, Dino Whitman (Sean Faris), Jonathan Fields (Chris Lowell) and Ben Connor (Jon Foster) and their obsession with sex.
