NEW LOST Dharma Station Logo

Got a glimpse of the new Dharma Station Logo at the end of a video from ABC, specifically from Damon and Carlton, talking about the book club.

It flashed on for a second. Very interesting. I’ve got a couple theories brewing. Has anyone else seen it?

Lost Season 5 Trailer

ABC has posted a trailer for 5th season of Lost. (Yes, this is about a week old, but new to me!)

Enough to get the Lost cobwebs dusted off and start to get excited about the new season. Which is still a ways away. You’ll see that it’s returning to the air ‘early 2009′! I’ll take what I can get. I’m hoping this means after the “Big Game”.

And, just in time for the Holiday’s Lost season for will be released December 9, 2008.

What’s also fun is the Lost Bookclub on ABC’s Lost site. I’ve got my reading list. Will any of you spend time reading some of these books?

Wanted to put a poll up, but something doesn’t seem to be working at the moment. I’ll get a new post on the book club by itself with a new poll when I get it straightened out.

KITT me you fool

From NBC.com

From NBC.com

I’m am indulging on my nostalgic feelings by reliving my childhood viewing of Knight Rider with the new Knight Rider series. The important thing here is not to be critical. Enjoy the good ( I like a lot of it), embrace the cliche, and most important cherish every bit of dialog.

Also, KITT can change into an F150 and jump with turbo boost!

CAUTION: NERD ALERT

Now, here’s the real reason of this post. If any episode from the original season was to be remade here, which would you pick?

Here’s mine, Goliath Returns Pt. 1. The return of M. Knights arch-nemesis Garth and the super-semi Goliath. A truck so fearsome that KITT fears him. Obviously a arch-nemesis that looks like the new Michael Knight will have to be introduced somehow, but if they can write in a KITT stand still turbo boost jump over parked cars then anything can be done.

Psych (ic) (great) Surprise

If you were psychic you would know how awesome the show Psych is. But since you’re probably not, let me tell you it is great. (that’s a ridiculous intro)

Seriously though, the television show is rapidly becoming a favorite of mine for a couple reasons.

1) just funny

2) just clever

Where else can you get references to Homer jumping the Springfield Gorge, Step-by-Step and the Oxygen network airing Good Fellas all in one place. NOWHERE and that’s why you should probably take the time to either watch, or more realistically TIVO (or is DVR the correct term? Doesn’t really matter to me as facial tissue by any manufacturer is still Kleenex or any copy machine I’m at I’m Zeroxing)

Semi-Change in direction

We here at Highdefguy.com watch a lot tv too; so starting soon there will be posts on tv shows in addition to television technology.

These posts won’t really be news, more impressions of shows that have recently been discovered. (Yes, probably some shows you’ve been watching for years, but we’ve only started watching).

Lost Time Difference

Ok, I’m definately going to have to look at this closer after a night’s sleep, but here’s what I’ve come up with so far.

Based on:

Jack saying that he’s gone 100 days without a baseball game.

The time difference of 31min and 20sec between the clock on the island and the clock that was on the rocket.

Oceanic crashed on 9/22/2004 @ 10:15 (Lost Wikipedia)

The date for the survivors on the island would be 12/31/2004. The date off the island would be 2/22/2005. Haven’t thought about any importance or theory yet. We’ll see what a night’s sleep brings.

Lost Rescuers Partial Theory

ATTENTION: THIS POST ASSUMES YOU HAVE SEEN ALL EPISODES OF ABC LOST.

Here’s my first theory I’m posting about Lost. Enjoy. Little insight or thought. Possibly stating the obvious.

 The ‘rescuers’ have landed on the island. What do we know about them? Their professions include a physicist(Daniel Faraday), medium(Miles Straume), anthropologist(Charlotte Lewis) and pilot(Frank Lapidus).

Why these four professions? I believe it has something to do with the electromagnetic properties of the island, the others/and the Dharma Initiative, and the strange statue with four toes.  I don’t have anything yet for the piot.

Nothing earth shattering, more of a statement of facts rather than a theory. I’ve got some actual theory’s running in the noggin now – will post shortly.

LOST Withdrawal

I know I’ll lose some credibility with this one, but I didn’t start watching Lost until November 2007. I don’t have a good reason, it’s a show I’ve always been interested in watching. Let’s not focus on that, focus on that I’m watching and I’m hooked.

For nearly a month it was Lost-a-palooza at this household. Two, three episodes a night. Immersed in the experience. Incredible self control not to look on the Internet for fear reading too far ahead. Ahh, but three seasons had come and gone and now we’re expecting the third episode of the fourth season this week to air, not just a selection on the DVD menu. I knew it would hurt when I had to wait between episodes, just didn’t realize it would be this much.

 How do long time Lost fans do it?!
