Did you see way in the back of the cave there was the number 108 and the name Vincent!!! At least I thought I saw that.
When watching Lost, every time an actor who appeared on Deadwood is on screen drink a shot!
Where is Vincent! If Locke and Jack’s cargo vanished, where is Vincent!
I’ve been watching this show since the date the pilot aired on ABC. I can honestly say that with the exception of one episode, I have been thoroughly pleased with the characters, plot twists, and direction that the story is headed.
I just got done watching Season 5 at Hulu, and now I just can’t wait to see the 6th and final season in February. Don’t ask me for any theories because I gave up trying to figure it all out a long time ago. I just enjoy the ride and eventually everything will come together.
I finished the first season today. And what’s really happened? Yes, they’re stranded on an island. Yes, we know tidbits about their backgrounds and lives. Yes, we know that the island is mysterious and that they’re not alone. But we knew that in the pilot. And we just don’t know much more now.
The strength of Lost’s storytelling is that it takes a very simple concept – “Castaway as a series”, in the words of the ABC exec who conceived of it – and draws it out in a tremendously compelling way. But the flip side of that is the substance of the most common critique of the show: that despite the edge-of-your-seat adventure, one simply isn’t given answers. Closure. One is being strung along like Charlie Pace with his unshakable heroin addiction. And there are bumps along the way. Star Trek “man in the red shirt” type characters like Arzt where the audience cheers their death (and with it the end of their annoying antics) rather than mourning their loss. Characters who are more melodramatic than believable like the overly-hysterical Claire. People who lack a raison d’etre or a character that one can identify with, like Shannon. But those are quibbles. Overall, the series is undoubtedly quite accomplished in terms of its casting, cinematography, and music – and the Emmy awards in those categories are well deserved.
So, I like it. It’s well made. And if the show pushes me to consider the mysteries which abound in the undiscovered great outdoors, then the show has done its job. Admirably.
I love the real world/city life references on the show that are impossible on an island.
I started listening to the podcasts on the official website. They are great fun!
This awesome television series will keep you on the edge of your seat as you try to figure out the secrets of the island, the secrets of the numbers, the stories behind the characters, who the others are and what exactly is the island? Is it purgatory or a whole new world?
All I can say is eight words:
This is the Best Show on TV. Period!
