Lost Themed T-Shirts - Polar Beer, Missing, & What Would John Locke Do?

This is it, the beginning of the end! We’re just a few hours away from the season premiere of Lost’s sixth and final season. Needless to say, I’m full emotions right now…both excitement and sorrow as one of The Blot’s favorite television shows prepares to leave the airwaves forever. With that being said, I want to make sure all the Lost fans out there have everything they need to watch the show’s 6th season in style. So here are a few of my favorite Lost themed t-shirts currently available on the web.

WWJLD? by The Teevil Initiative

TeeFury - Lost Themed T-Shirt WWJLD? (What Would John Locke Do?) by The Teevil Initiative
The Lost t-shirt above is entitled "WWJLD?" (What Would John Locke Do) and is available for today only from Teefury.com for just $9! This shirt’s title says it all and I love it! Plus it features Season 1 John Locke in all his bad ass glory. It’s amazing how much my opinion of this character has changed over the years. Sometimes I actually miss the silent hunter who had a soft spot for young Walt and Boone.

Polar Beer by Ian Leino

Lost Themed T-Shirt Polar Beer by Ian Leino
This second Lost shirt is entitled "Polar Beer" and was created by Ian Leino. Originally featured on Teefury.com, Ian has now made his awesome Lost inspired t-shirt available for a second time directly from him at online store for $18. According to Ian, the "Polar Beer" t-shirt was “created entirely by hand with scratchboard. This design squarely inhabits the junction of cryptic LOST mythology with classic beer label design, executed in a vintage, hand-tooled style rarely seen in t-shirt design.”

While the shirt may not scream Lost to casual observers, upon second inspection it’s a pretty awesome tribute tee. And if you love the shirt’s Beer Station logo as much as I do, you can also purchase a Beer Station pin from Ian here.

Missing by Glenn Jones

Glennz Tees - Lost Themed T-Shirt Missing by Glenn Jones
"Missing," designed by New Zealand based artist Glenn Jones, is one of the best Lost inspired t-shirts on the market. Inspired by old school milk cartons and their missing persons advertisements here is your chance to sport a t-shirt with a Dharma Initiative milk carton on it! I can only imagine what kind of nefarious experiments were taking place at the Cow Milking Station. And on the side of the carton is a missing persons ad looking for the passengers and crew of Flight 815. You can purchase "Missing" directly from Glenn at GlennzTees.com for $19.95.

Lost airs Tuesday nights at 9/8c on ABC.

Get down to the bar” - Ted

Ted, relax. I’m already 6 for 6.

“Really?” - Ted

Yeah, I was lunching at Tavern on the Green,
I started chatting up this Swedish super model.
Next thing you know,
I’m playing a day game in the back of horse drawn carriage.

Giddey…What…Up!

“Awesome! What really happened?” - Ted

I had lunch at a Staten Island Chili’s
and banged a drunk hair dresser.

Are you happy Truthie McGee?

Damages Season 3 Television Posters

The Blot was really excited to start watching FX’s critically acclaimed drama Damages again when its third season premiered last Monday night. While I’m sure Damages Season 3 will end up being pretty good, all the flash forwards and flashbacks in the show’s first episode had me thinking I was watching a poorly written episode of Lost. Every single scene featured some sort of time jump. It got so bad I couldn’t figure out what, if anything, was taking place in the present.

While Damages’ flash forwards have always been an intricate part of the show, I hate to see such a wonderfully acted drama relay too much on gimmicky plots. And, I worry that so many time shifts in the show’s first episode ended up pushing away Damages’ already dwindling viewership. With that being said, the season premiere’s final scene was a humdinger of a twist, even if everyone saw it coming from a mile away. I’m already intrigued by this season’s new storyline, and can’t wait to see what lies in store for Martin Short as shady attorney Leonard Winstone. Plus, who doesn’t want to see more of Damages’ quintessential villain, Arthur Frobisher, played by the eternal Ted Danson?
