LOST - With Nothing To Watch

Lost TV Series

 

Is it me? Did I imagine the LOST creators telling us that as a result of there not being a Fall ‘07 season, there would be an uninterrupted Winter/Spring ‘08 season with 18 episodes. Yeah, yeah… there was a writers strike. So what?! I can’t tell you how long the Fall was without LOST every week, and now when Thursday rolls around, it’s just another day.Television has gotten incredibly boring in the past year, lack luster and more of the same old, same old. Cashmere Mafia and Lipstick Jungle… give me a break. I can’t even bring myself to turn those shows on, they just reek of cheese - Whisteria Lane Goes To The Office. Don’t get me wrong, Desperate Housewives had a strong first season, and drew in a large following of 30-40 somethings - but it started going downhill in the second season when they obviously ran out of original content.

April 24th… that’s the return of new episodes. Till then I guess we’ll be saving on our electric bill by keeping the t.v. in hiatus mode… just when I thought we were through with the crap from the Fall.

    When I hang out with my mom, I get subjected to large doses of television that I would otherwise not be watching. We watched LOST and LIPSTICK JUNGLE together. I don’t think I have ever seen anything as boring as LOST in my entire life — at least the one episode I watched. “Mom, turn it off, turn it off, I can’t take it,” I kept saying. And she agreed, “Normally, it’s not this boring.” But she wouldn’t turn it off. LIPSTICK JUNGLE on the contrary was witty — again, the one episode I watched — it was much more entertaining than the other 10 shows we watched. Guess it just depends what you like.

    Hey Jaden, she is right. Lost is normally not so boring. Maybe it has run 2 seasons too long. The writers do look like they are struggling to keep this story going.

    I’m still pretty interested in Lost and how it will all turn out. I like the fact that some of these shows are planning their own demise in a certain number of episodes.

    The creators of Lost mentioned that they want to complete 5 seasons on TV and then make a ‘Lost’ movie. I do not know if they will have enough juice in the story to do that.

Got something to say?
