  • No Post Left Behind

    Even if I weren’t too busy to ramble on at length about TV shows, there’s just not a lot to say about this week’s episode of “Lost.” Just look at the final score: Pro About a minute of marginally interesting character development from Locke Cool, creepy scene with the smoke monster flashing itself at Juliet…

  • Two more of my favorite things

    The planets must be aligning or something. I saw that two more of my favorite things are coming together: the RiffTrax guys released a track for the pilot episode of “Lost”. I haven’t listened to it yet, but of course I bought it the second I saw it and realized what it was. This RiffTrax…

  • Razzle Frickin’ Dazzle

    I can’t describe how much I liked this week’s episode of “Lost.” No exaggeration, it’s one of my favorite episodes of the entire series, and maybe even one of my favorite episodes of any television series. It’s like Darin Morgan “X-Files” good. The reason I thought of Morgan is because “Exposé” does the same for…

  • Winding Down

    TVSquad forwarded along a New York Post story, which is pretty much completely unsubstantiated speculation quoting from an anonymous “tipster,” that the producers of “Battlestar Galactica” want to end the series after the fourth (next) season. This is similar to the claims the “Lost” guys have made that they’ve got an ending in sight and…

  • Hey, I remember that show!

    Last night ABC aired a new episode of their series “Lost.” Apparently it’s about a bunch of people marooned on an island or something. Watching it, I was reminded of a series that ran two years ago, also coincidentally called “Lost.” In last night’s episode, though, everyone was acting strangely out of character. Not five…

  • An Evening at the Improv

    Do the “Lost” guys seriously expect anyone to still believe they’re not making it up as they go along? I feel like a joiner, seeing as how it’s fashionable now to rag on “Lost,” but there’s just so much material there. They try stunt casting, and the best they can dig up is Cheech. Their…

  • Would you just stop and ask for directions, already?

    TVSquad.com has a link to an interview with Damon Lindelof about the upcoming season conclusion of “Lost.” I agree with the TV Squad guy — dude could stand to shut up for a while and lessen the backlash. The part of the interview that annoyed me the most was at the end: But I feel…

  • I Don’t

    Ha! Boom! Suck on that witty post title, “Lost!” Looks like the show has finally hit me with the one-two punch: a mediocre episode followed by a long break to completely ween me of any sense of involvement in the series. It’s their own fault; they’ve been hyping this thing since even before the season…

  • Subtropical Homesick Blues

    Oh boy! My blog’s first post-by-request. Granted, it’s about “Lost,” so I would’ve ended up talking about it anyway, but still. It looks like the “Lost” backlash is in full effect on the internets, to the point that even the complaints have gotten stale. For my part, just over the last four or five weeks…

  • You Taste Like Fish Biscuits

    DirecTV still sucks. I’ve been trapped in my apartment since Wednesday, missing all the rich, juicy television that’s been airing, waiting for the FedEx guy to finally show up with my new receiver. Now I’ve got to be trapped in my apartment Monday as well, waiting for a service guy to come out and fix…

  • On Dharma-tattooed sharks and the metaphorical jumping thereof

    If there’s one thing I learned from that lame “Lost Experience” game that ran over the summer, it was this: don’t let marketing guys create content. Actually, it was this: however “Lost” does end, it’s going to be a disappointment. My first reaction after seeing the final wrap-up of the game (youtube is down at…

  • Two for the Road

    Holy shit! Seriously! I’m not used to having a television show, even the ones I like, make me genuinely feel anything, but this one hit me like a ton of bricks. Like, just sitting there like I’d just been in a car accident or something, with that feeling of dread in the pit of my…
