This week's episode of Lost called "This Place is Death" saw the death of Charlotte. It was sad to see her go. I found her character really intriguing and she and Daniel made a really cute couple. They had a good chemistry.

This is the next death next to Charlie's that really had an impact on me. I hope the show does not forget her character into oblivion and that her death will have an impact on Daniel. Maybe he will try to go back in time and undo stuff (Hey, that's a cool theory).

Next to that nothing really happened. The island is still jumping around in time and the people off the island took a lengthy drive to Daniel's mom.
The time flashes really annoyed me this episode, because they were just used as a cheap way to show already established facts, nothing more.

It was rather pointless to have Jin jump around Danielle to see her do the things the viewer already knows about. I bet Jin's time travelling will have no impact and it was just used to confirm or discredit fan theories. These scenes had no other use and made storywise no sense.

Jack's father's reappearance and that he could not help John up just furthers that he is just an apparition or an incarnation of the monster that was established as security system for the temple.

All in all the Lost episode for this week was a bit disappointing compared to the highlights of the season so far. One reason for this might be that I had to watch "This Place is Death" a day later than the other eps and therefor I was spoilered a bit too much. I knew something was going on with Charlotte, because she is not listed as guest star in the press releases of the next episodes, amongst other things.
Hopefully next week something will happen...

I think this week Battlestar Galactica can easily top Lost, because we know that Ellen Tigh, the fith Cylon, will be back and there will be some explanations and clarifications. And I think that plot that will revolve around that thread will be far more interesting than a half hour drive to Ms. Hawking that doesn't even last half an hour.
