The reason it's still on is the same reason Twin Peaks failed when they revealed Laura Palmer's killer 5 episodes into season 2... by constantly making people guess and wonder and speculate, and by intriguing people constantly but not revealing anything -- that's a goose laying a golden egg.

Er, I think so anyway. I don't really know anything about this show, except every day some guy on the internet goes "MAN WHAT'S UP WITH LOST?"

The show is what you make of it. I choose to think it is a great show with excellent writing. Yeah, seasons 4 and 5 were kinda lame but still entertaining.

I'm pretty sure the finale is going to be played by muppets.

"and now the tribal council decides who goes home"

it's shot to look like reality tv. it's a huge visual turnoff.

as for the story, i never could make sense of it, and the dialogue was shit, so i was never interested. i had tried getting into "alias" before (from the same writer) because there was a hot looking chick in it, but fuck, the storyline was so dull, her legs be damned.

fucking a. i know some people who work in it.

btw, other good/great american shows of the 00's in random order-- the wire (ok, not so random, best show ever), sopranos, rescue me (season 1 & 2 i've seen so far are fun), the first 2 seasons of weeds (better use of legs than alias), the shield (fucking awesome), arrested development, sons of anarchy (currently on f/x), curb your enthusiasm, west wing up to season 4 (nerdy awesome), firefly (joss whedon rules) + dollhouse (in spite of its precipitous end), large chunks of battlestar galactica (uneven, but ok as a whole), dexter (fucking great), 6 feet under, etc... need to catch deadwood, i've heard good things but never seen it. and a lot more i haven't seen or don't remember.

Yeah, use promotional photos for your argument, not footage from the show. I can't see any of the reality tv staples that would make it look it like that. Your distaste of the dialogue and/or story I can understand. But to criticize the filming as reality tv-esque is just strange and unfounded.

Anyway, more positively, Deadwood is highly recommended, incredible show. Probably the best Brad Dourif has ever been. Solid call on The Wire, if not the greatest show at least the greatest ending to a tv show.

random find, around 1:10

http://www.hulu.com/watch/132034/lost-dr-linus

ha ha ha ha

besides the fact that they look like a bunch of terrible non-actors, like members of a big brother cast or something. i can't really explain, this show has always repelled me. same as "24". holy fuck that show is so gimmicky and contrived (24 i mean).

but anyway, matters of taste, etc.

however-- another recommendation for deadwood?-- thanks-- must check it out soon.

After all the self-referring "I'm LOST" jokes had ceased, I had hoped everyone would have quit that show in the breadth of that joke. I assume that those who kept with it are terminally over-analytical? If so, I suggest you tune your analytical skills to quality, it may save you some time.

finale tonight. its been broadcast at the same time all over the world. so in the uk sky1 are showing it at 5am! which is kinda cool.

its 2 1/2 hours long. i cant wait. just to get it over and done with and out of my life.

and yes, it is supposed to be very good. considering a load of the cast were asked to rate the last 5 eps of the season out of 10, and it got the highest rating with a 9.3, and mind they gave low ratings to some of the other episodes.

supposed to be quite dark, and apparently there isn't much hope of any of the main characters getting together, altho there is apparently a new couple forming, that "there is no way any of you will guess". ana lucia and miles is my guess. they arent cool enough to do sawyer and jack, or ana lucia and kate.

apparently they will answer a lot.

it is meant to be the last ever episode and have a lot of finality to it, according to the writers. no comeback, no spin off. the end.

i know most of you don't watch this show and don't care. but just in case you are interested. the finale was so unbelievably bad, it was the worst episode the show has EVER had. it sucked. in the end they are all in a fucking church. "oh. all that alternative reality stuff was just a place you made up so you could go to church with your friends". never ever watch this show. never be tempted to download season 1 and start from there. you will just be dissapointed. so FUCKING BAD. really. for once comic book guy is right, and can not ever be questioned on this. WORST EPISODE EVER.

Hey, I liked it. In typical Lost style, they answered questions but left room for ambiguity.

I'm watching Jimmy Kimmel with 'alternate endings'--they were pretty funny.
