Not to make light of an air disaster or anything, but this story about Adam Air Flight 574 took me to a bit of a Lost place.

Lost 2: Tied to a Tree in a Jungle of Mystery
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
5 + 7 + 4 = 16, which is one of the Numbers!!
And in that vein, the trailer for The Number 23, in which Jim Carrey plays Hurley.
Okay, based on promos I saw during Grey's Anatomy Lost comes back next Wednesday in a later time slot. They are going to do an hour-long catch-up thingy at 8 Central and then a new episode at 9 Central.
Sad thing is, that I'm really considering not tuning in. At this point, I could not care less about these people and what happens to them. I think I'll end up reading the TWOP recap instead.
I'll be watching when new eps start again because DH wants to, but my reaction to the promos was basically "Oh right...Lost."
I really think if they stayed on indefinite hiatus, it would have taken me years to realize it.

But you might miss the episode that changes everything?!??!?!
Of course, based on past experience, you could do that watching the episode too.
It's staying in the rotation of Things I Watch mostly out otf inertia, and lack of anything else in that timeslot to force the issue. That said, i'm still hoping that upcoming episodes will get me interested again. And I do have hopes that Desmond will have a strong storyline.
Lost to me has pretty much become a cautionary tale in how not to run an arc-y drama. I'm mostly concerned that my shiny sparkly love of the moment, i.e. Heroes, may end up treading a similar path, but thankfully, the producers of Heroes seem actually interested in giving fans answers.
I think I still have it on my TiVo season pass, but I am paralyzed with not caring too much.
I think the Heroes people have explicitly cited Lost as their own cautionary tale, so their mistakes will likely be different ones.
The main difference for me as a viewer is that Heroes seems interested in telling a story, while Lost seems interested in maintaining an air of mystery.
