Lost: It's possible he survived but I can't really think of a reason for the producers to have let him live (other than the surprise factor). Doc Jensen has a theory that Sideways Locke will be the guy who pilots Arija off the island. I have to say, this sounds like a plausible theory to me. I mean there HAD to be a significant reason they made specific mention that Locke was a pilot in the alternate timeline. There are no coincidences on this show.
I would have made the exact same choice Jin did. There was no guarantee of him getting off the island anyways (I'm sure that factored into his decision) and the woman he loved was scared and dying. He couldn't let her die alone, no matter how much he loved his daughter.
Yeah, that's my theory too but I liked the crazier one I had (with all three elements of different theories) a week ago. It would have been SO cool if they had used all three of those ideas as it actually would have completely justified Sideways Desmond's actions. As it stands, if that was the ONLY reason he smacked into Locke, there was probably a better (not to mention a non-illegal) way to do it.
Doc Jensen's columns were interesting this week. Here is the recap, in which Doc acknowledges that this was an episode bigger than his conspiracy theory nonsense. It's actually quite a fitting tribute to Sun, Jin and Sayid. Like you, he doesn't think Lapidus is dead.
However it's MY opinion that the next column is the money column. In it Doc says he's talked to Darlton and that they have confirmed that Hurley's ghosts are NOT the Man in Black messing with him as he thought (and I seriously doubted). He then gives a run-down of the four types of spirits we've seen on the show. And he does it all in a single page! (As well as giving a spoiler free pledge.)
V: I only want the show to get renewed for one more season and for the show to pull a Dollhouse and have a premature cancellation force a definitive ending. Otherwise I have a feeling we'd be strung along for years like we were on Heroes.
