"Lost"

I notice there's ads for this now on Channel 4, so they've finally picked up this show.

The adverts are actually terrible, but the show itself is amazing - original, exciting, and tense, such a rarity. Check it out, or set your fancy Sky+, 'cos once you've seen the first double-length ep you'll be hooked.

It's 25, although E4 might be showing the behind the scenes special before the finale. Just watched Episode 6 here myself. I think it's good, but it's still not yet at the greatness in my opinion that critics have given it. Don't get me wrong, it's better than most stuff on TV, but I expected something out of this world, and instead feel a bit underwhelmed. Meh, I guess that's most hyped up stuff is like, though.

There were loads :| Either that or I was just really into it and they came around quicker.

Anyway, yeh I used E4's "First Look" thing for the first time. All three episodes were promising, and I shall be watching next week.. even though I've seen the episode already. :S

Go for it. It's about 24 episodes, isn't it? That's ages away before the finale, when I'm guessing:

1)We'll know what the Iron Giant is (Iron Giant moniker c/r JFH)
2)We'll know what Dangerous Kate did
3) We'll know just how Evil that Evil Locke is. (Evil)
5) We'll know if Boone still has a crush on the Dawson
6) Kate/Stuck-Up-White-Chick will have got their kit off

Why deny yourself this? Go for it.

EDIT: To Sheepeh. It makes no sense in reply to what Snuggly said. But I agree, ads are crap. Everyone knows this.

One to keep an eye on, definitely. I like the whole Twin Peaks vibe it's got going on, the deliberate 'trust no one' thing, and the ladies are nice to look at and make me feel warm down below.

I'm gonna download the remaining episodes, not so I can watch them all at once, but so I don't have to watch those stupid bloody 118 ads in between. Why do ad companies bother trying to make them funny? It's a drama, short comedic interludes snap you out of whatever mood you might have been in. It's like having some idiot interrupt a moving conversation about the death of a loved one with a David Beckham impression.

I watched all three.

I really like it and I want to watch more now. My brother downloaded them all, I'm quite tempted.

Evil Locke intrigues me. I want to see him scuttling about, doing Evil things and making Evil gestures.

I might watch it later on E4 +1.

Damn adverts do my head in.

Watching the third episode on E4 now. Think it's the first time I've ever used the extra channels except to watch Liverpool on ITV2.

But I'd be very annoyed if we had to wait an extra few months for an ending. I doubt they'd do that really, because they can't have been guaranteed a second season whilst writing the script for the first.
