Very brief thought on Lost 6.09: Ab Aeterno

Ernsthaft, wenn ich mit einem scheinheiligen Arschloch, das gerne Moralstücke mit unglückseligen Fremden inszeniert, auf ewig auf einer Insel festsitzen würde, dann wäre ich auch mordlustig.

( Seriously, if I were trapped on an island for all eternity with a sanctimonious prick who likes to stage morality plays with hapless strangers, I'd be kind of homicidal, too.)

British Slave trade had been abolished in 1833 and this was set in 1867! Nevermind that the Spanish government presumably didn't sell off their prisoners, either...

I was wondering about that, but was historically ignorant enough to be able shrug it off with a "Well, maybe it's OK." Thanks for disillusioning me. ;)

And I'd forgotten most of the details we already knew about the Black Rock, too, apparently. Hmm. possibly most of those nitpicks could be handwaved away with a sufficient investment of mental energy, but I don't think I have that much available. :)

*g* I thought the same...

Well, it is nice to know it's not just me. :)

What cracks me up about these is actually that the episode was written by Elizabeth Sarnoff and Greg Nations - and he is officially Lost's continuity guy. ;)

Oh, dear. When even the official continuity guy can't keep track... LOL!
