I think Conan is probably pretty jaded about how he was treated by major networks. He'll be able to push the boundaries more on cable. It'll better suit him because he just didn't really fit in on the majors.
Don't get me wrong. I love Lost. I thought Season 4 and 5 were excellent, but lately it's been feeling like Season 3 all over again, and that's a bad thing.
I think the problem with these flash-sideways stories is that, while we're sure that all this will mean something later, right now, we've been given no hint that it will, so it means very little to us right now. Therefore, it's not very effective to a crowd hungry for answers.
Beside the monologue, I was not impressed. It's almost like they didn't want to feature him in that many sketches, so they forced him into the background randomly a bunch of times. Although I only watched the online one, which didn't have Pageant Talk!
What was with all the crying in last night's episode? Kate cries, Sayid cries while being tortured, Sawyer cries, Claire cries, Kate cries again. What is this? The Crying Game? Somebody needs a puppy.
Sayid is totally Jacob now. Jacob found his own loophole. He gave Hurely the guitar case, he told Hurley what to do, he told them if they didn't do it they would all be in trouble. Jacob set it all up. Locke vs. Sayid!
My theory; all the people who have died on the island have retained their memories in the alternate timeline, and Desmond too, because he's "special". It's why Boone said what he said to Locke, why Juliet said "it worked", and how Charlie knew he had to die. This hasn't been revealed to the other castaways because they wouldn't believe it.
That ad is pretty terrible. However the Tim Tebow pro-life one they actually are airing has a pretty bad catchphrase too. It goes, "Don't get an abortion because your baby could turn out to be a great football star". A totally realistic reason why you should not get an abortion.

Nobody is arguing whether or not what Mr. Polanski allegedly did was right or wrong. It's obviously wrong. It's easy to say, "he's a rapist, we should lock him up and throw away the key." Treating it like that won't prevent someone from doing it again or stop others from committing the same crimes. It's more complicated that that. Crimes like these are a symptom, not a disease. The punishment for such crimes must factor in things like what caused such behavior in the accused? Are they a danger to society? Can they or have they been rehabilitated and how? And most importantly consider what is best for the victim.

Not to condone what Polanski did, but it should noted that the alleged drugging and raping charges were not proven and dismissed and changed to just statutory rape. He clearly was somebody who needed help but has deserved a change to rehabilitate himself.
