In the vein of things which are needlessly overanalyzed, I would perhaps submit this exploration of the “Numbers” from LOST as stretching too far — but for the more interesting notes found down at the bottom of the list. It’s easy to find matches to individual numbers (“wow, there’s FOUR people in this scene — it must be significant!”), but when you start to see multiple instances of the pattern in scenes (mostly involving Hurley, i.e. his dead SUV or the soccer players in the airport), well, it’s harder to dismiss. But see for yourself.

WARNING: potentially some spoilers, I suppose, for those who haven’t watched the season finale — but it was two weeks ago, so tough noogies.
