From TV Guide's "Watercooler":
Lost
How addicted am I to Lost? So addicted that I'll even forgive J.J. Abrams & Co. the cheesy moth symbolism that they not-so-subtly slipped into this week's episode. We get it guys, Charlie has to make himself quit heroin in the same way a moth has to free itself from its own cocoon — that's very Metaphors 101 of you. Still, it was nice to see an episode devoted to young Master Monaghan, who, along with Terry "Piggy" O'Quinn, plays one of the more intriguing characters in this large cast. I especially liked the reveal that Drive Shaft was basically Oasis with a better hit single. Charlie's brother was even named Liam for crying out loud! Elsewhere, Jack and Kate inch ever closer to couplehood... or at least a midnight booty call. You know, I understand that we're supposed to root for these two to hook up because they're the "heroes" of the show, but honestly Evangeline Lilly strikes more sparks with Naveen Andrews (who plays Sayid) than Matthew Fox. And for his part, Fox seems more turned on by matching luggage than his pretty co-star. But according to my wife, the real budding romance on the island is between Sayid and Sawyer. After all, they did come running out of the fuselage together in the last episode to save Michael from Jin. Plus, they're constantly showing off in front of each other, often while sweaty. Her final piece of evidence? They're both really hot. Remember, you heard it here first gang.
Heh. No, actually I said the same thing about Sawyer and Sayid in the pilot!
Regency House Party
Leave it to the Brits to find new life in the played-out dating show genre. In this lively series, a group of single guys and gals are put together under one roof with the goal of finding true love. The twist? The show is "set" during the Regency period and each person has been assigned a specific role and social class to play. Unfortunately for the women, the men are to busy snorting tobacco and consuming mass quantities of wine to pay them much attention (hey, it's just like modern times!) So far, the coolest characters are the supporting players, like the snarky servants and the hermit who lives out in the woods. You heard that right, a hermit who lives out in the woods. And he goes by the name of Zebedee Helm. I think I know who I'm going to be for Halloween next year.

And one of the women is a complete bitch.
