Clarkson, LOST a weak show? No, your brain is just not up to following the patterns and parallel scenes. It is amazing and highly intelligent. Stick to cartoons, you will follow them.

I think LOST is the best too and I cannot stop thinking about it. I am going to be so gutted when it ends and, at the same time, I cannot wait to know the end. Mostly I want all the characters to be there again and none of them to be bad or dead. I love Richard Alpert and I love Jack etc. and Jacob is awesome. If I had thought up this series I would wear a t-shirt saying how brilliant I am. It is sensational and what I love most is how it makes my mind keeping working long after an episode finishes, piecing all the narratives together and the characters.

Hi there Ian, nice to know you!

Yeah, I feel the same way. I marvel at its beauty and mourn it’s passing. :(

I missed the premier last night, but I’m super excited about watching it this evening.

Great post, exactly how I sum it up!

It is true, no other show can come close to Lost. Compared to the rest of TV, there are a handful of shows that actually make you think, and Lost tops them all.

I feel so sad that it’s ending. It’s become such a big part of my life. But, on the other hand, I want to see how it ends. Mixed emotions plus me equals bad.

Hi there, Clarence!

Yeah, as far as ambition. I’d have to agree. LOST is the best show ever. I can’t wait for it to start again! Counting the days in fact. : )

Thanks for dropping by!

Great blog. But I must disagree (sort of) with one thing you said. Lost is not the best show on network TV, it is the best show on ALL of TV. Cable included, regardless of how many boundaries they can cross.

I watch almost nothing on network TV because of the superior quality of cable programming, but Lost is still the best, so that says a lot about Lost.

No show before or after will even come close to Lost.

Yes, our family, too, is a big fan of Lost.

I’ve also wondered about the writing of TV shows. I guess they must lay out everything at the beginning of the show so they can wrap it up in the end.

Monk is another example. They finally brought it to an end. I assume they must have planned how she (Trudy) was killed from the very beginning and then intertwined little hints here and there throughout the entire run of it. Good show but not as much in-depth or twist or turns as in Lost

I watched the first season and loved it. Got through about half of the episodes of the next season and then refused to watch any more. It just didn’t go anywhere, I felt like they were repeating the same kind of events just for effect and there wasn’t any point to the events anymore. (Am I making myself clear? This is my second language and I’m not sure about the words here. I’m sorry if I’m making a confused impression!) I felt the same about Prison Break I might add.

Great blog btw, found you through Zen Habits and your recent guest post :)

I whole-heartedly agree with your spiel here….I had been a huge fan of Lost, until the writer’s strike. Since then I have gotten behind and need to brush up on what I have missed.
Another show I feel had and perhaps still does have some excellent potential was/is HEROES.
