That accent is getting to me. I'd press his execute button any time he wanted me to, no questions asked....except for maybe when I could press his button again.
And what's with the people with the pointy sticks? Every time I saw them, I kept hearing Eric Idle saying: "Aren't you going to teach us how to defend ourselves from pointy sticks?" Yeah, Monty Python needs to run out of the jungle holding their own pointy sticks, a dead bird, some coconuts, and one of those tropical death rabbits with large pointed teeth, shouting "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!" Why couldn't it happen? Everything else has happened on Freak Island.
I did notice that electromagnetics was mentioned in the "Orientation" film. Also noted the polar bears were given a quick cameo. It wouldn't surprise me if our intrepid band of castaways find Gilligan and his gang, Marshall, Will, and Holly, Chaka (not Khan....but hell, why not Ms. Kahn? On Freak Island, it could happen!), a herd of Sleestaks, Tom Hanks, and a talking soccer ball. Not to mention the entire cast and crew of "Fantastic Journey" and all of the crew of the USS Eldridge who disappeared back in the 40s after dicking around with Tesla's freaky deaky EM generator.
I don't know what to do with myself now. This show freaks me out on so many levels that my brain hurts from theory overload.
This has got to friggin' stop.
I heard "The Midnight Special" by CCR on the radio yesterday evening. This song is ruined for me because I can't help but think of Dan Ackroyd and fight the compulsion to ask the person nearest to me, "Hey.. You wanna see something really scary? This has nothing to do with anything written above. Or does it??

And where have they been all this time? Hiding in the bushes? Is everybody underground in strange 30 year old bunkers? I think you should write the rest of the episodes. Seriously. This show NEEEDS Eric Idle.
