Lost. The TV series. I'm really, really liking this series so far. There's only been one episode that I didn't find gripping and interesting and stuff. Much better than the last one. It's the incidental touches that do it for me. Such as one in the most recent ep in America. Is this on today (Sunday the 27th) on Sky? If so, you'll want to make sure you watch it. I think. |

Yeah, it's on tonight. I've been informed it's a goodun, in non-spoilerific fashion. Lost is great. |

Post subject: | Re: Lost |
Yup, it is indeed a good 'un. WITHOUT spoiling anything: The flashbacks are good and not full of e.g. Jack just moping about a bit. Stuff happens! You discover a bit more about one of the 'original weird things on Lost'! And if you watch it again and are into speculation, potentially even more than that! No inane sub-plot! Other stuff, obviously!!! |

Everything is going to rest heavily on the 6th season. It doesn't matter how great and enticing the series is in the meantime, unless they wrap it up really well and answer all the questions that need answering, the loyal fanbase is going to feel so entirely short-changed that it'll forever be considered shite on the whole. |

I'd be suprised if they didnt milke a movie out of this aswell. As for the new episode, off the hook, Bens become James bond or something with his one-liners and twice I did a What the Fuck?! in my head. |

Post subject: | Re: Lost |
Ben is simply a superb character, portrayed perfectly. They should just call the show 'Ben' and have it just be him going around doing his shopping, and finding ways to manipulate the postman into beating up the milkman so the postman's wife is all his (to give to the milkman in penance for the death of the milkman's wife). Or something. |

Yes. Or I can just lend you 1-3. |

Post subject: | Re: Lost |
Curiosity, I like your way of thinking! Very interesting. Grim... definitely you should watch it, just be warned that there ARE some duff episodes. Also lots of awesome ones. The 4th series is so far almost all awesome, so consider that the carrot. |

Grim... wrote: Is it worth me putting Lost in my 'DVD Boxsets to buy and watch' list? I wouldn't, on the grounds of there being zero rewatch value. I'd never go back and watch any of it again. The whole thing is based on not knowing what the hell is going on, or what happens next. I'd never be able to sit through any of the long drawn-out episodes on dvd again, knowing what happens.

Same with shows like 24 - never rewatched a single one. Might have value in a few years time when I can't remember what the fuck happened in the first place, but given the immensely formulaic plot, I'll probably be able to guess anyway. |

I went to watch season 1 again and it was a bit dull, I couldn't watch past the 3rd episode, as I just knew what was coming up So yeah, you are right. Malc |

Post subject: | Re: Lost |
To be honest, I have never re-watched any of my non-comedy DVD box sets. That includes 24, Lost and The Wire. That said, I caught an episode of The Wire on TV the other day and was instantly hooked into it again. So I might go back and watch it again at some point, especially series one, as I was so confused for the first few episodes, but now I know who everyone is, I bet it would be better second time around. As for Lost, given the mysterious nature of the show and the propensity for pick to come up with theories etc, I would be interested to see a few episodes again for the sake of continuity. |

Not that I mind because I've seen it, but I think Sky are a week and a half behind now as opposed to half a week behind like they were earlier in the series, so this episode hasn't actually shown over here yet. |

They actually pushed the date back and caused people who would prefer to watch it on TV (like me) to say 'screw it' and get the DL. Why did they push the date back? To coincide with their new series of 'Gladiators'. I despair... |

Actually it could be so that there's an uninterrupted run of episodes; I think I read somewhere that the last episode will be delayed a week to make room for a two-hour last-in-the-series episode of Gray's Anatomy. |

This makes sense, as Lost actually started last Sunday and Gladiators doesn't start until next week. Sky often do this (delay the start to synchronise the end of a series) and I think that's alright in the grand scheme of things. I'm happy watching Lost off Sky One than torrents, particularly as I can watch them in hidef without messing around.

Oooo...just finishing watching the two parter. No spoilers included suffice to say if you are in the slightest bit interested in the Lost (either now or previously) you really should tune in on Sunday. It's a splendid conclusion to the series, tying most stuff up nicely (while raising inevitably more questions) and setting up the next two series. Oh and yes, we find out who is in the box. |
