Lost. ( No Spoilers Please)

Man they poorly marketed this series. Everything i ever saw made me think this was a lame show. But out of boredem i aquired season one and i gotta say, im hooked. The story line is really good so far, the characters are good and like i said, its way more darker and interesting then i expected.

How is season 2, does it start to suck? I thought i heard someone saw in passing once that it was running out of storyline or something.

Please no spoilers btw

Or atleast warn me on your post so i can skip it.

Yeah agreed. I remember seeing the adverts for it on CH4 in the UK, and it just looked like some "lost on an island melodrama"... like a grown up version of lord of the flies, without all the fun stuff.

But yeah, once I watched it I was in for a pleasent surprise. Good show... if a bit frustratingly paced.

Season 2 starts off pretty slow imo. It takes 3 episodes before we even know the truth about the hatch - and as of episode 22, we still don't even know that much about it.

I don't think its running out of storyline in the slightest. If anything, we've barely scratched the surface. And most of the characters still have interesting back-stories. And you'll see a few new faces in S2 too. No point stoppping now man.... watch S2.

Yeah, I thought it was some sort of boring reality-type drama. Then I went over myself and got the 1st season and holy fuck.

It's all right and I enjoy watching it, but it's not massively great.

The best American drama type thing has by far been Six Feet Under. Nothing else has even come close.

Same.

Think i'll wait and watch season 2 on DVD... I can't possibly deal with having to wait an entire week before watching another episode.

Lost is excellent. the story actually picks up in season 2 and really starts moving. there's material for a couple more seasons easily

it looks poo at first glance, but then when you watch it, it becomes addictive, as many posters in this thread have testified

season two isnt as slow as season 1. it throws clues and twists at you like theres no tomorrow, save for some rather "undelivering" episodes (like 22

)

Lost is like crack, I started watching season 1 when channel 4 started airing it but having to wait a whole week for the next episode was infuriating so I imported the season 1 boxset from the US.

The same is now happening for season 2 but as channel 4 brought the series forward to before big brother instead of after it I have to wait like 4 months for the box set.

you do realise you can d/l each episode as it airs in the US from the ABC site (to keep) for only $1.99?

So reckoning is just a flashback episode, isn't it?

thats what tv.com would like you to believe.
i was convinced Live Together was the 2 hour finale, too (and the next ep).

Sweet good to hear. Im on 13 right now and im hooked.

So not to intice any more spoilers....

How is 24? I heard it is good, but again, the adverts left me hanging and when i flip through the channel, it doesnt hold my attention for more then 5 seconds.

So think i should invest the time into getting it and watching the first season?
