"LOST" (not literally- here's to the greatest show EVER)
Today I will be reviewing the show "LOST". Seriously, if you have not seen the show, it is this story about people who crashed on an island and all this crazy stuff happens. It is NOTHING like Gilligan's Island. It is almost like a bad dream that you have after staying up late and eating spicy foods. It is also addictive- when I started graduate school- I was one of the very few middle-aged (did I say that?) students in the classroom. I was trying to be "cool" with the recently graduated 20 year olds and they told me I MUST watch this show LOST. I had been a big fan of the show ALIAS and it has the same producer so I thought why not? Little did I know it would be like coffee every morning and breathing. It is like a roller coaster ride at a theme park. Maybe I am overstating, but it is not for the faint of heart or for someone who has never watched an episode. It must be watched from the beginning. What is really weird, is you start to feel like you know these characters and relate with them. Maybe it is somewhat like people who get engrossed in soap operas. (former "story" watcher) I have overcome that past time and gotten into this crazy show about time travel and twists and turns that no one can predict. I want to thank my fellow LOST groupies such as Nathan, Carrie and Erin who got me HOOKED on this CRAZY show. My friend Nathan once said, "If you are ever on a plane and there are that many pretty people aboard - GET OFF". I think he said it well. So tonite I've got school again, I'm working towards State Licensure- I will see Nathan there and we will discuss LOST like old times. My other LOST groupies have moved on to bigger and better things and States. (Michigan and Virginia - not state of mind) Anyhow, I have two small groupies at home to watch with Jordan and Jennamarie and I think I'm even convincing Jeff to watch- it's not hard- I got him hooked on American Idol.

I have been watching American Idol craziness. Once they make it I seem to loose interest. I am hooked on SO many shows (thanks TIVO) that I can not jump in on LOST! How did we ever survive without cable I will NEVER know. Seems like all we had was Three's company and Dallas(thanks Rushmeade)! Enjoying the blog...keep it coming!
ReplyDeleteI'm a LOST lover, too. Looks like another interesting season.
