I tried to find a thread on this already, but after about 9 pages of searching the word "lost," I gave up.


I never watched LOST when it was on TV, b/c I game in to it late and was so confused I figured I was better off waiting and binge watching it later.

So I started season one a couple weeks ago, and now I'm almost done with the season.

I have questions...

How do the ladies have such great makeup and hair?
How do they all happen to have found their clothes and luggage?
How do the guys stay clean shaven, moreover, how does the doctor keep up his electric razor buzz cut?
So there just happens to be a doctor, the amazingness that is Locke, a dude who knows electrics etc.? I know there are a lot of conspiracies around this... i think I agree that it's all too perfect, so to speak.
The doctor is on my nerves.
I like Sawyer.
Yes, the last two are not questions.
 
CGNY, you can talk bout whatever you like my dear, even if people won't listen! Happens to me all the time!

Did you know come October I will writing my short story which centers around Fiver but importantly includes you in it?
 
My LOST experience means 2 things to me now.

1) Sometimes there are shows that I continue watching even though they have become awful and I suspect they always were and I'm sure they will continue to be awful but I've come this far so I guess I will see how they end. LOST was that kind of regrettable experience. Dexter is a current example for me.

2) There are shows that set up mysterious puzzling situations and don't explain them. They are hoping to create an itch that people need to scratch and they keep dragging those puzzles out as long as they can. Many shows use that technique in a limited way. A current example would be Ray Donovan. That was LOST's absolute bread and butter, presenting puzzle after puzzle. And if you think, 'Okay at some point they are going to have to explain some of this' ----> no.



If LOST had've been one season, I might find it excusable. It was quite absorbing at first and the episodes flew by. But as season after season passes it just becomes repetitive and insulting. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone but I guess there are people out there who think it was good.

Matter of taste.
