LOST no more...
So dv_girl had to experience this generational touchstone. And because she's manic, she had to watch it in six to ten hour blocks.
All I have to say is... Don't. There's some good episodes there, but the writers, producers had no convictions. The first two seasons are throwing red herrings and macguffins for no reason other than to get people talking. The next season has an inexplicable direction which isn't described. The second to last season characters stop acting like characters and start just doing things for no reason. The last season starts throwing characters away for no end, and then throws away any pretense at being scifi or a story and just pairs off the pretty couples, kills them, and then sends them off to the after-after-afterlife.
...Which put it squarely where I said it would go.
