we are the experiment

[kermit]

i was joking with my friend after the finale...

what if there really is no rhyme or reason to everything that's happening and the show itself is a creation of the dharma/hanso people as a massive global psychological experiment :P they do some weird stuff, watch our reactions on forums like this... do something else, monitor us. we are part of a massive reverse reality show :P

like, that statue foot... what was that? watching people wonder what it was is almost as interesting as watching the show itself :P

Totally. Excellent observation.

I highly doubt this is true, because fans will be pissed, but this theory's a mindjob to say the least. People are going freakin nuts for this show haha. But I don't think it'll happen. It's not news that people trip out for TV shows, crappy or good.

I get it, the light bulb has just gone on, it has only taken me 49 episodes but now I get it. Man I have to tell someone so I went looking for a forum and I found Kermit, I cannot stop laughing I to feel that we are the lab rats like the poor soles lost in lost pushing the button, we also watch the show ever week at the same time, for the same amount of time 108 minutes which includes 42minutes of show and 16
minutes of ads take that away from 108 minutes and you get 50, 50 episodes. One more to go.
The experiment is to see how long we will put up with this crap before we say NO MORE of this bullshit, I can't take it anymore and not push the button to watch this program.
Lock has shown me the way I Will not push the button, and the series will end so what, I bet life will still go on.
Now who is with me, repeat after me I will not watch another episode because this is the biggest con ever.
signed pissed of viewer

noes... i'll watch till it starts to suck or it ends ;P i'm only human! now, if we could tie the numbers in to the reality of the show somehow... what channels it airs on, for example channel 4, channel 8, channel 15, etc... lol, i would cry... push the buttons, keep the show going, keep the people trapped on the island

Has anyone ever thought about there being a big prize at the end of this show for someone? The producers go to a lot of trouble with clues, numbers, dates, commercials, and web-sites. What if all these things were to pin point where a hidden prize was located?? I personally would be pretty PO'd if that were the case, but not such a strange idea I think. Anyone else agree?

It'd be sweet, but it is highly unlikely.

maybe it all points to some kind of geocache
