Rerun: Adrift

[Warning! Some Spoilers for the non-USians!]

Well, I figured I'd start watching the reruns here, just to see if anything in them makes more sense now that the finale is done, and we've learned all we're going to this season.

These are things I noticed that make perfect sense now, but may not have been noticed the first time around.

Not too much of note, just a few bullet points:

• John tells Desmond they've been there 44 days, to which Desmond seems to react like he knows what has happened.  Of course he does, since 44 days ago he let the timer expire!
• Sawyer goes on about the boat having a maximum range of about a hundred miles, that it couldn't make it far on the open ocean.  What does this mean for Michael and Walt?  What is so close to the island that they'd be able to be rescued?
• Was that a comic book on Desmond's dinette table?  Looked like one.
• Desmond lets slip a laughing, "A raft?" when John tells him about the explorers.  Of course he knows they're not going to get far.
• The music that Desmond's got on the turntable, "Make Your Own Kind Of Music", to which the lyrics go: "You've gotta make your own kind of music, sing your own special song.  Make your own kind of music, even if nobody else sings along."  Maybe a bit of foreshadowing of Locke's eventual viewpoint on the hatch (and its eventual desctruction)?
• Michael gives the younger Walt a stuffed polar bear toy.  I think I recall that the first time around, but now that it seems Walt has (had?) some kind of "ability", and he's apparently gone, what does this mean for the island? No more polar bear sightings?
• Michael's decision to get Walt back when he's out on the ocean in the raft wreckage takes on a bit more sinister tone, now that we know just how far he will go.

Just some random thoughts.  I will do this when I get a chance.  I might miss a couple here or there, but eh.
