Can't wait till the beginning of the new season on the 4th.

On a side note, I have kept myself entertained with this animated parody of lost called LOSTed on YouTube, its hilarious, you guys should check it out.

hopefully they don't end this season with 5 recap episodes in a row like they did in season 2.

Hey, Guy I caught the first season but totally blew the second season....I need to caught up quick man!

I am so ready to become a huge Lost-dork again; as opposed to just being a plan old dork like I normally am.

What sucks is that LOST will be on for 6 consecutive weeks. And then it takes 13 straight weeks off before returning to finish the season

WTF? why?

Answer:

Quote:

"Lost" doesn't repeat well, and audiences especially complain about out-of-sequence reruns, or even pre-emptions, during the season. But a 22- or 23-episode season won't stretch from September to May without interruption.

Explains ABC Entertainment president Steve McPherson: "We've really just listened to the audience about the repeats, and it felt like this was really the best way to run the show."

So they get to have new Lost episodes for both May and Nov sweeps basically instead of running one long season and then having it finish before May Sweeps.

i can't imagine that's "what audiences want"

season 2 did die horribly at the end though. the writers didn't have enough material and basically made 5 or so complete throw away episodes.

One thing that will be good about this is that I won't have to worry about missing college basketball games. That's not the best concession for not having my favorite show on for 3 months but at least it's something.

Lost repeats are horrible. I'll take new eps anytime I can get them.

BDBohnzie · 10-04-2006, 10:05 AM

It may be a long gap between the first part and second part, but I'd much rather have all new episodes week after week, than having 2 new then 2 repeats...

Evangeline Lilly was on with Elliot this AM and said that she hasn't had this much fun (taping the first batch of episodes) doing the show since the pilot.

It was useless to listen to her on the radio, I need to be able to see her.

I feel like it's pretty rare that you find a chick that hot that's also extremely interesting.
On top of that, I have to go back to what Bill Simmons sadi about talk shows a week or two ago. He said they're almost like getting to watch a bad first date or something. The guests are usually not the most comfortable and there are typcially a bunch of awkward pauses and whatnot.

The one thing that has me worried though is that almost any Lost cast member who's been a guest on EITM has ended up off the show shortly after. They've had (going by character names b/c I don't know all the actors) Boone, Shannon, Walt, and Anna Lucia. Hopefully they don't kill her off.
