Feb. 6, 2008 - "Lost" time
I am a total "Lostie." It's sad but true.
Initially, it was my husband who started watching. His tastes run more to the sci-fi and action end of the spectrum so when he said he liked it, it was a pretty good sign I would NOT! =) But, the writers and creators of the show have done a good job of developing the characters and I personally have enjoyed seeing some of their stories develop.
Lost is fun because of all the 'easter eggs' that are hidden through out the show. It is just creepy to see lives of passengers cross before they even got on the plane. Creepy in a good way...you know. They have woven such an intricate story line that sometimes you want to watch again to get little details you would have missed the first time.
They showed a commercial last week for Oceanic Airlines, the fictional airline of flight 815. In it, in between the pretty girls selling exotic destinations, a guy was trying to hack in and leave his own message. His name is Sam and his site is www.find815.com His fiancee was a flight attendant on the lost flight and he is on a mission to find her. If you go to the site, you can join him on his journey.
It will suck up your time, but in a good way. (Is that even possible?!) I love the folks behind this stuff, it's just smart entertainment.

I tried to watch it on line, but it kept messing up. I'll have to try to watch both episodes now.
We watch them after they come out. We caught up by renting DVDs from Blockbuster! I can't imagine watching it with commercials.

Okay, now I know you have to be a friend - you took a very similar parth. My husband watched Lost from the beginning and I had NO interest either. Our neighbors taped it, since we were at Scouts when it was on. Somewhere around the end of the 2nd season, I got sucked in . . . now I'm hooked!
In fact, I've been going back and renting the 1st season so I can catch up with all that I ignored! Ha! Ha!
The easter eggs are definitely fun. So is having it available online - we can still watch, even when we've gone to a concert and missed an episode.
