I don't know what spurred me to "find" all of Season 1 of Lost on the internet but there I was two months ago "finding" it like mad. Then I proceeded to watch the episodes to see what the guffaw was all about. And you know what? I wasn't disappointed one bit because there is a lot of guffaw! Sure these shows are quite a "cock tease", always ending off on some sort of cliff hanger, which will never be resolved until 3 episodes down the road. But damn does it keep you on the edge of your seat wanting more! I guess it is the whole point of a cliff hanger. I ended up watching the first season in the span of a few days! What I liked about having all the episodes from one season available to me was that I didn't have to wait a week for the next episode to air to cure my curiousity! Having them on hand was terrific in quenching my Lost thirst, all I had to do was double click :D
Since then I have had to do the unthinkable. Wait. That's right I wait till the next week like every Dick, Joe and Jane for the next episode to air. And you know what? It sucks!!!! I should have just ignored the complete second season and "found" it during the summer. That way I wouldn't have to wait and my life on Wednesdays at 10pm MT/8 ET wouldn't be so booked up. But now that I'm suckered into it already its hard to get out. It's an addiction! So bad this addiction that I quench my thrist for Lost by visiting sites that deal with Lost debates on Theories of what is really going on to visiting sites made specifically for the show such as Oceanic Airlines and The Hanso corporation! What scares me is what is going to happen when the season ends? Will I go into shock from Lost withdrawal? Will I have the shakes? Oh I hope not!!!!!!! Maybe reruns will satisfy me and I can be really nerdy/geeky and nit pick each episode.....oh wait I might just being do that already!
The last time I was like this was for ST:TNG. For those of you who don't know what that is. It stands for Star Trek The Next Generation! I know, I know, I'm a nerd! Some will call me a trekkie but damn did I ever love the world of Star Trek. So much so I have a nitpiker's guide to the Next Generation world and I have Tech manuals and even an Encyclopedia of all things Star Trek. I even have Star Trek playing cards (similar to Magic/Yugi Oh cards). But never did I cross the line and get myself spock ears or the Star Trek uniform. I knew when to draw the line, hehe.
Anyways, all I have to say is that Lost is damn good. It's a tease at times filled with useless flashbacks and brings up questions that never seemed to be answered but I guess that's what makes it so good! Alright I think that's enough about my addiction to Lost and all things geeky from the past and I'll leave you some interesting links if you are also a Lost fan. Definitely check out the "Ultimate Theory" and "What is the Island" link. They are very interesting.
Enjoy!
P.S. Another reason to watch this show is to support another native Albertan!
I think the Star Trek part is a clincher for deep secrets revealed! haha.
