I'm not a big spoiler fan, but I have been reading these spoilers, and trust me that all of these spoilers completely contradict each other. Will one of them end up being correct? Probably bits and pieces, but I doubt any of these are slam dunk answers as to what's going to happen. I'm usually as anti-spoiler as a lot of the other posters, but these are just SO different from each other that there's no way to know which one is correct.

If the latest spoilers are indeed accurate, and I suspect they are this late in the game, I have to say I'm
Spoiler:
mighty worried about them jumping to post-rescue with three seasons remaining. As has been said, for a final season it might work, but three years worth of nothing but fill-in backstory sounds tedious as hell.

Is there a Clip show scheduled for next week or will it be the two hour season finale?

I had planned on waiting. In fact, I even went so far as to make a reservation to wait. Unfortunately, they called, and told me that, due to a lack of people waiting, they were going to close down business.

So, looks like I'm back in the "can't wait" ward. Similar to the "time well spent" ward, but with less air banding and more spoilers.

Naw, it won't be. They wrote "Three Minutes", "Every Man For Himself" and "D.O.C." which were all excellent episodes. They just usually get the short end stick, but occasionally get a good, plot-relevant story to write.

There's a Clip show hosted by Damon and Carlton (called LOST: The Answers) on at 8/7c. It'll be a repeat of the clip show that will air tomorrow night after Grey's Anatomy. Then the Season Finale will run from 9/8c through till 11/10c.

RE: The spoilers ... at this time each Season the producers have a history of deliberately leaking foilers so as to throw people of the scent of the real shit that will go down.

Thanks, it's cool we don't have to wait two weeks for the finale. Then we begin the long wait for season 4.

Let's not forget these classics:

S1: The reveal of the Mapinguardi
S1: ZOMBIE WALT (and perfect-English speaking Jin)
S2: Jack's clone tackles him on the beach

So I am confused. I thought tonight was the 2hour season finale. So is that next week?

I don't see how anyone can get a sense for what the spoilers are based on what I wrote. We all know that there's going to be somekind of cliffhanger/shocking revelation at the end of the season, and what I wrote could be in reference to anything. Like:

Spoiler:
They're actually all dead and they're in purgatory!


or

Spoiler:
They've been kidnapped by aliens for an intergalactic zoo!


or

Spoiler:
They finally get rescued, and they all get together and start a detective agency to solve mysterious crimes together in Hurley's van for the next three seasons, and Vincent learns how to talk, and it turns out Lost is really a remake of Scooby Doo!

The last spoiler is the potential biggie.

If that's true... It's very Kurt Vonnegut "Galapagos" -esque of them.... which was written in a similar manner -- albeit it it was the whole book, not just the last half...

Dang, the scenes in this episode so far are really corresponding to the main set of spoilers that are circulating around the Internet, particularly relating to the hatch and Charlie's final fate. I had hoped they wouldn't be true.

Desmond didn't appear when Charlie was playing guitar and it started to rain. This probably means that the premonitions are not accurate and are different timelines.

well it is possible charlie could have sang the same song during the rain at a different time.
