Lost

I don't dislike the show, but I can wait until Wednesday. I can even forget to watch it on Wednesday. Something must be wrong with me.

Very...very...wrong.

I mean, I can, on some theoretical level, understand simply not liking the show (purely theoretical, of course). But to say, "I like it...but I don't care if I miss an episode," is mind boggling. I've heard a couple people say that now. I don't get that.

But you can miss an episode and still be OK. "Previously, on Lost" does a pretty good job of showing you what you "missed" in the last few (or more) episodes, and the show itself is really repetitive.

But really, I don't get it either. I love the idea of it, but I think it may have something to do with hype. There's no way Lost can live up to the hype that's been created about it. I liked it more over the summer when there was no Lost than I do now that there's an episode of Lost on tonight.

Maybe I'll *love* it five years from now on DVD? If I do, I promise to create a gushy love-for-Lost thread then.

Well, I've loved it since the git-go. My personal hottie is Sayid, who is, not incidentally, one of the more complex characters. ::goes to set DVD-R::
