We are just hours from the season premier of "Lost". If you aren’t on board (ever so slight pun there) already, you have two options.
- Watch the hour-long catch-me-up show that airs prior to the premiere tonight
- Tivo tonight’s premier and quickly purchase and watch the season one DVD that is available now.
Suzanne and I were lucky enough to latch onto this show from its pilot last year through its season finale. It was a great ride and since it won an Emmy, its obvious that we weren’t alone in our opinion.
It was great fun to learn more about the characters each week. The show makes ample use of flashbacks to develop its characters. In some cases, the flashbacks are from years ago and profile a life-changing moment in a character’s life. In other cases, the flashbacks are only days old and provide context to how the character came to be on the flight and how they may have previously interacted with the other soon-to-be survivors.
The island also holds some supernatural phenomenons that have not yet been explained. For those who don’t believe in such things, don’t worry, it doesn’t interfere with the entertainment value of the show. This is to say that while the survivors do get harrassed by a perceived monster from time to time, this is only a minor part of the story. The island’s real mysteries concern fate and destination along with its ability to free people of their limitations (both physical and mental). I know that sounds pretty mysterious, but I’m being purposefully vague so as not to spoil it for any who choose to jump on board.
So tonight we are looking forward to more of the island’s secrets revealed…join us!
