I do! I think the writers are LOST and don't know what they're doing really. Still, I keep coming back like an abused spouse. Even with it's shortcomings it's still the best drama/adventure show on TV. The only one I watch on a regular basis. I watched Heroes Season 1, but Season 2 has drifted into lala land... Also the writers strike hasn't helped...

I watch it. It is one of my favourite shows along with the Office. I'm driving my wife crazy with the "That's what she said." comments.

Does it star Greg Oden? If not, I don't care. Imagine how Oden would look on a stranded island though. His beard would have a beard.

I watch it too. The writers are just like "okay, how can we make this last 5 seasons?..." But its still good.

I watch that, The Office and Scrubs. Good shows.

Eli Stone is good also. You should check it out.

I actually really like what the writers have done with Lost. Each season has it's own really distinct feel. Plus, now that they've set an end date, I think the writing has gotten even better.

I completely agree with you on Heroes though. Season 1 was amazing. Season 2... Not so much. That was one of the biggest disappointments I've ever had watching TV. It was really not good at all.

Did you get past the 1st Season? Because after the first season, it's nothing like Gilligan's Island. It's closer to the X-Files than Gilligan's.

I couldn't agree more. That was far and away one of the best hours of television I've ever seen. It was a perfect episode from start to finish.

I watch it religiously. The thing that I like so much about it is how inconsistent it is. This week's episode bored me to tears. Couldn't care less about Korean lady and her baby. But like SinceClyde said, the contestant was the best. It was so good I cried. I've watched that episode 4 times and it's just SOOOOOOoooo good.

Like a Greg Oden block leading to a Sergio lead fast break resulting in an Aldridge ally-oop dunk good.

Again, I couldn't agree more. Last Thursday's episode was very boring. It had some cool revelations here and there, but the Jin and Sun episodes are usually really slow, as this one was.

I was surprised that Jin dies i thought that was a really big cliff hanger to show us he dies later on but we dont know how yet it makes watching jin feel like your watching a dead man walkin

I should probably put a spoiler warning on the title of this thread...

I wonder if he's actually dead or not though. His tombstone September 22, 2004, which was the day the plane crashed, and obviously he didn't die in the crash. Donno, just something to think about. You never know with the Lost writers.

You never know, there were people left on the island that Hurley & Jack didn't want to talk about. Jin could be one of them.

I thought "The Constant" brought in a lot of quasi-science. My hope that the series could end using logical science has finally been buried in the grave and properly stomped on thanks to that episode. Keep in mind that the producers/writers originally said that it'd all have a logical explanation near the end. Also Harper showing up in front of Juliet then vanishing was kind of lame as well. They're digging deeper in to the "it's a magical island" vault... Which is kind of disappointing, but it's hard to stop watching.

I liked the last episode, maybe it's because my girlfriend is Korean and I <3 stuffed animals, so that could play a big part. The flashback/forward playing out at the same time was hard to figure out at first...

I didn't notice the date of death on there. That's definitely odd that it had the plane crash date on there. Feeds my speculation that he may still be alive but still on the island or died at a different time but they covered it up. I don't know why Sun would agree to changing the date of his death if he had really died, possibly she would agree to it to keep him safe if some agreement was made.

I had the same theory that there's still people on the Island, or at least they were left there. It would explain why Kate has Erin at the end of the Eggtown episode.

Something interesting that I noticed.. .
It doesnt have to do with the storyline.

The girl that was wrapped in chains and
tossed herself over the side of the boat
did a movie called Death Proof which is
linked to another "grindhouse" movie
called Planet Terror and in that movie
it has Jeff Fahey who plays Frank, the
helicopter pilot. I wonder if that girl is
really dead. Seems weird that she had
such a small role, but nothings normal
about this show, lol.. .Oh yea, did you
know they wanted Michael McKean to
play the role of Jack and they wanted
Jack to die off in the very first episode.

Couldn't disagree more. I LOVE the magical island crap. I really like that there's all these questions and very few answers. It really keeps you on your toes. Every episode could be the one where the particular unexplainable part of the magical island might be explained.

I liked the old idea that it was Purgatory.
But that idea is pretty much dead now.. .


Hey you all remember when they berried
those two people alive. They thought they
were dead but they both got bit by some
spider or something. Was awhile back.. .
