"Last week, a PopMatters columnist complained about Lost's overreliance on gun-toting. The latest ep--with its scenes of Jack aiming his firearm at a vanished Harper, Charlotte pistolwhipping Kate and a pissed-off Freckles and the freighties pulling guns on each other--doesn't do much to assuage the columnist's thirst for less gats. The show that the PopMatters guy should really be focusing his ire on is Jericho, which recently killed off the deaf girl by having her go out in a Scarface-style blaze of glory, but not before she sprayed a barrage of gunfire at D.B. Sweeney's thugs. Jericho makes Lost look like Pollyanna."
