Lost - New Drama on TV in UK

[cagnes]

I loved it in the begining, but then they lost me when they went drifted into the twlight zone! They could have done without the monsters in the jungle & all that weird stuff. I gave up on it & stopped watching.

The characters & their backgrounds were great & I think that the series could have stood alone just with that. I thought that it was going to be a real survival story, like "Castaway" & not a sci-fi story line... IMHO, very disappointing!

The season is finished here too. Didn't watch it, I thought it was really lame.

Absolutely! I know lots of people that didn't enjoy it

Lost is the best television to come along in a LONG time. For those of you watching it for the first time- pay close attention to EVERYTHING. Subtle signs about things to come are hidden in every episode.

I LOVE this show! We can't wait for the new season to start. We'll probably buy the first season on DVD when it comes out next month.

I agree, although I still enjoyed the show and can't wait for it to return. I would've rather just seen the dramas unfold between strangers stranded together on an island than all the weird stuff coming into play. However, there was just enough of the "drama between strangers" left to make me want to watch it, and ignore the weird stuff. I thought it still made good TV.

We want to live vicariously through tv and movies, in that at least I, and probably lots of others, would like to know what we'd do if stranded like that without having to go through it, or at least for ideas on what we'd do if we were... I don't think I'll be bothered by any weird monsters any time soon so that I couldn't care less about. Maybe the producers will pick up on that and gear it back towards the personal side of things.

Ooooo! I watched LOST from the beginning! It is quite an addicting show! Your question, is it as good at the end as it is at the beginning... most definitely just as good, but most definitely a lot weirder! And really confusing! Pay attention VERY closely! Otherwise, you'll be left looking like this....

Lost is awesome!!! It's my favorite show!! I can't wait til the new season begins!! Enjoy this season Gilly! It's so well written! And yes, pay close attention to every detail, like everyone has said. (and there are a few hotties on the island) I wouldn't mind be stranded on an island with Boone, Sawyer, Sayid, and Jack!!!

Oh dear! Well I am taping it all - for my dad and my neighbour!

Btw, just watched the 3rd episode.... I am still gripped and as said above, I do like the way they dart back to what the ppl were doing with their lives before the crash....

I want to know what Kate was meant to have done though

But I guess I will have to wait and see!

Jack is just

and I must say, I am starting to develop a "thing" for Sayid and I am only on the 3rd ep!

Loving it here too! Have really been looking forward to it after all the hype about how well it went down in the US, and not even a smidgen disappointed so far!

Thought about dinosaurs, but then that would make it a bit too Jurassic Park, and I think (hope) this is going to be more original than that.

I think it has a lot to do with the older mans speech about the rules of backgammon - two sides, one light and one dark. Like how the monsters only seem to be around when it's overcast and raining, then disappear when the sun comes out again.

Glad to know there's a second season too

I really wasn't into it at all, but my mom apparently loved it. If I were on the phone with her and that show was coming on it was immediately time to hang up. She would get SO upset if she ever missed it! I just didn't get the big deal myself.
