Rose and Bernard grew to be two of the most beloved background characters in LOST. So much so, that the show gave them their own flashback episode, providing us with their “meet cute”, the reason they were in Australia, and Rose’s unique reason for not wanting to be rescued.

WARNING: Here be spoilers. Your first and only warning.
Once The Last Jedi came and went, audiences officially began the journey from the “comfort” of the Skywalker Saga to the great unknown with the future of Star Wars. There is only one more film to go in the (foolishly presumed) final Skywalker trilogy, and soon enough there will be more Star Wars films that cover every little corner of the galaxy that is far, far away. As such, Solo provides some additional insight into the thought process guiding this venture. But also, it leaves many unanswered questions which I, an expert – obviously, will attempt to answer.
1. What were they thinking? Continue reading 5 Questions After Watching Solo: A Star Wars Story

Charlie’s hallucinations and erratic behavior lead some of the Survivors to believe he’s back on heroin – but is he? In our flashbacks, we learn what lead to Jack and Sarah splitting, and how Charlie knows all too well the burden of being a junkie father as he watched his brother from afar.
These episodes lead to side discussions on certain aspects of the show treading water in this portion of Season Two, and a great featurette from the bonus features of the box set adds some valuable insight into all the care each LOST episode has put into it.
