Still Lost

Like many Lost fans, I was extremely excited about Season 3's pilot episode. After many months of Lost withdrawal, finally, a new episode! It was nice to get a few answers: Fake Henry's real name is Ben and he IS the leader of the Others; Desmond's tardiness in punching in those mysterious numbers into the computer DID cause the plane to crash, with no help from the Others who didn't seem to have known before-hand that that plane was going to crash on their island. But, true to form, the episode raised even more questions: Are the Others the remnants of the Dharma Initiative or do they represent an ongoing branch of that organization? Who is Juliet and why does she seem so unhappy? Who is Carl and why was he caged up? Who is Jack's wife's boyfriend and why did the writers refuse to give us his name? Is this significant? And how did the Others get all that information on Jack? Did Juliet really have Jack's father's autopsy report or was she bluffing?

Like all Lost fans, I wait for these and a multitude of other questions to be answered. Hopefully, they will be; otherwise, the show will find many fans "getting lost" for good.
