LOST!!!
I am freak about five things in my life:
1. NES
2. Chicks
3. Jesus
4. NGD
and
5. LOST!!!!
I want to know who else is a freak about LOST. Its handsdown the best show on television. And if you are following the show closely, then last night's episode knocked you down and melted your face.
So, the purpose of this thread is to keep a discussion of all things LOST. Every Thursday after the show airs, this thread will be resurrected for those folks who want to discuss the show. All I ask is that if you have advanced knowledge of plots, characters or anything that might spoil a die hard fan, please don't ruin it for us.
"Guys...Where are we?"

I love this show....have loved it since day 1. The whole Myst-ish theme I really enjoy.
I haven't watched last night's episode yet, I'll be watching it later tonight. My wife was watching Gladiators to clear some HD space on the dvr and I was busy figuring out how to get the damn stamps to stick on the envelope in maniac mansion. Took me a bit longer than I thought it would
Now Ive got the code to the basement just need to mop things up...
Back on track though, I really like this thread and I'll be posting after I watch tonight's episode. And who the hell is in the casket...I assume we will find out soon

24 is great, but I prefer Lost...if you only watched a few episodes, I agree it would be hard to get into. But if you start from the beginning, the way the plot builds and they do back/forward flashes it gets very interesting.
My humble opinion anyway !!
Ive never actually seen an episode. Is it one of those shows that is pretty much impossible to just start watching from any day?
Basically. I watched one once and it made no sense.
Though the only reason I have a TV in the first place is for the Nintendo.

Agreed. Well... Nintendo and sports for me. I just don't understand how anyone under 50, in this day and age, would want to willingly spend their time in front of the idiot tube. (Though people say the same thing to me about watching NHL and NFL and Soccer, so it's all relative, I guess).

I also like Entourage and The Shield
And anyone who has seen LOST and still calls the television the "idiot tube" has a few problems. That show is incredibly smart.
And you can't dispute that it isn't the best show on television if you haven't watched it. How many television critics have continually called it the best show on television? Plenty. And they've watched all the shows. It's their job.
Now then, back on track, last night's episode was glorious. It was interesting to see that the four people that came on the chopper (well three, not including the pilot) all have some skill at something the Dharma Initiative studied. Will be interesting to see why they want Ben.

Kevin - indeed it will be interesting to see who is in the casket and why they want Ben. The whole scene with the polar bear skeleton in the Tunisian desert was money!! And the premiere where Jack pulled the trigger on Locke - brilliant!! I've heard the writers' strike will be over next week so we will get a full season of LOST.
Aaron - couldn't agree more bud!! A 'bad' episode of LOST is better than most everything on TV.
Basil - While I partially agree with your statement, 'under 50...why watch the idiot box?'...you should watch this show. It restored my faith in creativity, especially for a television show. You'd be surprised how much it makes you think, reflect and act on perception, faith and right and wrong. Good, good stuff.
Hoags - waiting for the answers is what makes it so good. I'd rather wait and earn the answers than to sit back and be fed them by disinterested writers. Anything worth having or learning is worth the time it takes to acquire them - the same may be said about collecting!!
Skank - The Soprano's was good, no doubt. LOST is great.
Shags - nice to know my Alaskan homey digs this show!!
Dain - Rent the first disc of season 1 and I guarantee that you will want to buy the rest of the season and watch it as fast as you can. This is television at its best!!
Nicky P - Progressively, LOST is becoming quite Lord of the Flies-esque.
Koonsty, Johnny - watch it from the start...thank me later.
zDan - this season will unfold and reveal the fruits of all our work/watching. It is a great time to be a LOST fan - we are in the middle of the entire series!!!
Peace.

I think alot of times abc.com may only work for computers in the US, I'm not sure on this though.
I have watched from the beginning.
Taped Wed. night and while watching it later that night tape ran out about 10 min. before the end. Arrrrgggg.
Had to finish tonight on abc.com. Good stuff.
But....I haven't watched any episodes yet this year.
Gotta love DVRs
I also watched the first season when it starts to be broadcasted on
german tv - and I have to agree it was damn captiv. I saw all german
episodes that were available and than had to change on the HBO rips. I
also started with the second season somwhere till they found the guy in
down there in the bunker. After a break I forgot which one I watche
last so I didn't know where to start to check it up again...
But imo there should be an end anyday and this seams to not come.
Most series are starting with a very good plot (and mostly was planed
only for few episodes) than they see its getting popular and accepted
by the audience. Than starts the bad parts with enlarging a not so
good/bad story - this is my experience at least.
I started with watching Prison Break and was addicted from the first
episode - but the second season turned into a boring plot and I stoped
to watching it....
Same with 4400 season one damn good plot (as I like this kind of
mistery and Sci-fi mixture) I bought the season two watched few
episodes and turned the tv off...the most is simply money making after
a good season one - the plot seams to be not more important
The recently very good serie I watched is "The LOST Room"
Be well!
