Part of what keeps me hooked on Lost (and kept me watching if not hooked, before the cracktastic flash-forwards) is that I'm waiting for the grand asspull. Remember on Angel, when Skip gave us the asspull to end all asspulls? It was so magnificently assy + pully, that I never imagined any other show would come close to challenging it, never mind beating it out, but if any show can take it down, it's Lost. Whether it will or not is another thing, but it's the first time I ever imagined it possible.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
You didn't think the bloody-eyed zombies on Alias were close?
I have to admit, I think I only watched Lost because of the writer's strike. Although I watched last year when Sawyer and Kate got in on, because I am shallow like that.
I have been following Sarah Conner Chronicles, Supernatural, Gossip Girl, and Chuck, as well as catching up on The Office. I also got Mad Men from iTunes, and that was pretty good. However, now I am running out of things, so a little sad.

I manage to watch so little tv normally, that re-runs can keep me busy for a while. Plus Biggest Loser and random FoodTV or PBS stuff.
I think I watched about half of season 1 of Lost, but my heart wasn't in it since I was pretty sure JJ knew not where he was going. Basically I have no faith in him so I have kinda sworn off all of his projects.
Lots of British TV. And the first season of Carnivale. Now the second season of Sleeper Cell, which is not living up to the first season.
And the first season of Carnivale.
I LOVE Carnivale! I especially love how all the people look and feel like real people, and real people of that era. I think the casting is phenomenal. The second season gets a little crazy, but I still wish they had been able to continue the story.

Lost is my first JJ show.
Awww...Alias. How I miss your inaneness and good wigs and costumes.
Well, the next JJ show has Denethor AND Molly Dodd.
