i just finished watching the season finale of lost. it was amazing. lost is by far my favorite show on television. why? it’s a lot. i’m hoping to explain that a little better with this blog.
it immediately hit me that i have to wait eight months until i can watch more lost. i’m admitting right now that i have an addiction. last year, my friends brittany and derek, along with my boyfriend adam and i, would get together to watch the new episodes. brittany has since moved to norfolk, va, and derek is away at college near dc. lost is best experienced in groups. it’s ok to watch by yourself, but it’s not nearly as fun to yell “WHAT THE HELL?!!?!” to a room full of no one. we have found a way around the distance, and we conference call on skype during the episodes. i told you. it’s an addiction.
adam only started watching during season four. he got me season one for my birthday, and we’ve been watching it together to get him caught up. i didn’t realize how much i had forgotten. and one of the best things about lost is that the little things are very rarely little things. i would catch little details that, when watching for the first time, seemed like nothing special. re-watching reminded me of how tons of things came to be or are related on the show. so i have decided to watch the entire series, from the beginning, and blog about the episodes as i go.
adam’s brother josh is going to make fun of me non-stop for this.
i’m going to try to plan it out and space it so i am caught up close to the premier of the final season in january. probably borrowing from the format daniel of the lost diary uses, blogging in time.
or i’m going to space out and forget in a couple of weeks, and realize i haven’t blogged in three weeks and decide it’s too late to come back without addressing my flakiness, and abandon the whole thing and never speak of it again.
