What was in the Hatch? The cliffhanger from season one of Lost was answered in its opening sequences, only to launch into more questions as the season progressed. That's right: Just when you say 'Ohhhhh,' there comes another 'What?' Thankfully, the show's producers sprinkle answers like tasty morsels throughout the season, ending with a whopper: What caused Oceanic Air Flight 815 to crash in the first place? As the show digs into more revelations about its inhabitant's pasts, it also devotes a good chunk to new characters (Hey, it's an island; you never know who you're going to run into.) First, there are the 'Tailies,' passengers from the back end of the plane who crashed on the other side of the island. Among them are the wise, God-fearing ex-drug lord Mr. Eko (standout Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje); devoted husband Bernard (Sam Anderson); psychiatrist Libby (Cynthia Watros, whose character has more than one hidden link to the other islanders); and ex-cop Ana Lucia (Michelle Rodriguez), by far the most infuriating character on the show, despite how much the writers tried to incur sympathy with her flashback. Then there are the Others, first introduced when they kidnapped Walt (Malcolm David Kelley) at the end of season one. Brutal and calculating, their agenda only became more complex when one of them (played creepily by Michael Emerson) was held hostage in the hatch and, quite handily, plays mind games on everyone's already frayed nerves. The original cast continues to battle their own skeletons, most notably Locke (Terry O'Quinn), Sun (Yunjin Kim) and Michael (Harold Perrineau), whose obsession with finding Walt takes a dangerous turn. The love triangle between Jack (Matthew Fox), Kate (Evangeline Lilly) and Sawyer (Josh Holloway), which had stalled with Sawyer's departure, heats up again in the second half. Despite the bloating cast size (knocked down by a few by season's end) Lost still does what it does best: explores the psyche of people, about whom 'my life is an open book' never applies, and cracks into the social dynamics of strangers thrust into Lord of the Flies-esque situations. Is it all a science experiment? A dream? A supernatural pocket in the universe? Likely, any theory will wind up on shaky ground by the season's conclusion. But hey, that's the fun of it. This show was made for DVD, and you can pause and slow-frame to your heart's content. Just try and keep that head-spinning to a minimum.
On the DVD
Commentaries by various cast members and producers reveal little other than the occasional easter egg (the Dharma logo on the shark fin, Walt's mumbling translating to 'Don't push the button; the button is bad' backwards). But disc seven opens with an eerie Hanso Foundation instructional video, leading you to eight hours of bonus features, including cast members' own theories, deleted scenes, and featurettes on specific episodes. It's all well and good for Lost fanatics, but if you want the cream of the crop, check out: 'Lost Connections,' an interactive feature that reveals how all the islanders are actually linked (for instance, one of the officers who captured Sayid during the Gulf War is Kate's father); a Channel UK promo for the show directed by David LaChappelle in which cast members suck in their cheeks and, dressed in evening wear, tango in slow motion as if in a Calvin Klein ad (it has to be a joke, right?); and 'The World According to Sawyer,' which strings together each of the un-PC nicknames and pop culture references spewed by Holloway's character. Favorites include 'Chewie' for Jin and 'Ponce de Leon' for Ana Lucia. It's by far the cherry on top of a sweet dessert. --Ellen A. Kim

Rating:  - KEEPS GETTING BETTER !!!
What else can you say LOST grabbed me from show 1 and never let go. I introduced my then girlfriend, now wife, to it and she was so hooked we watched all of season one in a week and then she got season two because she couldn't wait to see what was next!!! I'll be sad when the last season rolls around.
Rating: - Lost - Second Season
Excellent. Just what I need to review the second season and get ready for the new season coming up
Rating: - LOST IN "LOST"
Anyone who is not a fan of "LOST" is missing quality entertainment - to me it is watching an Academy Award winning hour each week with equally consistent award winning performances by the entire ensemble cast. I now have the first three seasons on DVD and look forward to purchasing the 4th season when released in December. There are a lot of bloggers out there who pull each episode apart; but I just enjoy this fantastic series and relish watching again on my dvds. If you have the inclination, watch the first season - it is and always will be unforgettable to me - the introduction to the best drama on the small screen I have ever seen. Enjoy getting lost in "Lost". Mary Hanley in Connecticut
Rating: - Inside the Hatch and Taking A Prisoner
After an incredibly succesful and compelling first season, LOST returned the following fall with another jam-packed slate of episodes filled with mystery, character development, and action.
Picking right up where the season one finale left off, the mysterious hatch is explored throughout this second season, ultimately leading to solving the mystery of why Oceanic 815 went down in the first place. Also, one of the mysterious "Others" (the ones who took young Walt off the boat in the season one finale) is captured by the "Losties" and his interrogation (mainly due to Michael Emerson's incredible acting) is a high point in the entire series. Finally, a new crew of Oceanic survivors is discovered, introducing a few new characters (but can they be trusted?!) into the mix.
Besides the mystery-laden plots, the background flash-backs of the cast-aways are just as dramatic and emotional as ever. Some of the most compelling episodes that come to mind involve:
-Hurley's battle with mental illness (as well as a certain string of numbers that make him incredibly nervous)
-Jack's relationship with his father, Christian
-It finally being revealed "What Kate Did"
-More Sun/Jin drama
-John Locke's family is revealed
-Sawyer as continued "con man"
To conclude, this second season of LOST is just as compelling as the first season. By blending incredible character drama with great action/adventure plots and mysterious happenings, LOST ... Read More
Rating:  - garbage
After the renting the first season , I was interested enough to rent the second , to see how the writers would resolve some of the mysteries and problems facing the characters. I was willing to overlook the many "minor" faults in the first. A plane breaking into three parts after hitting an air pocket? Or maybe it was the electromagnetic anomaly?Planes are mostly made of aluminum, not affected by magnetic fields. Is this possible?? The large number of survivors , yet the ELT (battery powered and independent of the plane's radio) does not survive the crash? John Locke , after being abandoned and then horribly betrayed by his genetic father , instantly agrees to help him retrieve $700k in stolen money, for part of the loot?
The second season , however , revealed writers who treat absurdity as a virtue. The hatch leads to an underground chamber , part of the "Dharma Project" (oooh Buddhist!!) , where Desmond enters a series numbers every 108 minutes to "save the world". After Desmond runs away , John takes over entering the sequence , why? Because he has faith , that's why !!!
Of course , that makes perfect sense.
Just keep watching, it will all be explained? No thanks.
Confusing , inconsistent, pretentious garbage.
