    I watched a couple and quite liked it. It started to annoy me when after about episode 2 everyone accepted they were stuck on the island and started setting up home. It was game over for me when the polar bear made an entrance though.
    Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

      No patience.

        I always wondered if with such an extended run there would be plenty of continuity bloopers - let us know if you spot any obvious ones
        How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

          Not sure that is quite true:
          • Half of the principle characters stay on the beach in order to keep the signal fires going
          • Sayid is very determined to get an emergency transmission established
          • Michael starts building a raft in order to escape


          Having said that, they all have their reasons (as shown in the flashbacks) for not being too over eager to escape.

          The Polar bear isn't that weird compared to later stuff. I'm surprised you're bothered by it and not by the monster thing that killed the pilot!

            I was probably doing other stuff when I watched it. I have no idea what most of the above means, particularly the monster bit.

              Most of it occurs after episode 2 so I'll forgive you for that

              The monster is in the first episode though and is a fairly major event! The polar bear does not seem that weird in comparison.

              Still if you are stuck for something to watch then give it another go but try and get to episode 10 at least

                I think I have commitment issues from early on in a series.

                  Hm. I keep meaning to try Breaking Bad, and I plan on re-watching Green Wing. No space!

                    I stopped watching when they had to keep entering the same numbers every hour.

                    It reminded me too much of the hourly/daily/weekly 'progress'' reports I had to complete.

                      Hmmmm, Do, or do not. There is no try with Breaking Bad.
