Am I nitpicking? I'm not sure that I am. I'd like you to tell me where I am merely nitpicking but apparently the show is so unmemorable that you can't remember back 4 or 5 years ago.

In fact, he might even end up telling us that it doesn't technically qualify as a TV series because of some obscure criteria and he'll insist that it be called a longform mini-series or something like that.
I hope not.

Oh, I get it. I dogged on your favorite character so now you're all mad and stuff.

I hope that is the case that all the flashbacks will indeed really matter. Many of them in season 2 felt like filler to me; many didn't actually deepen the character or provide better explanation of character motivation, they just gave the character other stuff to do. A concern going forward is that flashbacks will be used simply to provide justification for the writers wanting a character to suddenly act in a certain, new way on the island.

I'm not you average lost fan. I'm what you would call a fanboy. I remember everything that happened (well 99%) anyways.

Here's my advice. Just take the show for what it is. It's the writers story, not yours, and they do a brilliant job stimulating your mind. Everything is there for a reason and if you don't like something now, when you find something out down the line you might change your mind.

P.S. Jack is also in my top 5. I'm sure he'll get off your shit list soon.

If you're not finding it entertaining, you shouldn't bother watching it.

You're clearly a fanboy because you can barely read my comments without seemingly assuming that I am attacking everything that you stand for.

I don't think that I am doing anything but "taking the show for what it is." I am also assessing its strength as a television show, episode-by-episode and season-by-season. You don't think I have an open mind about the possibility of ambiguous things being resolved later? C'mon, man, that's essentially the entire dramatic premise of the show!

As for Jack being on my shit list - he's not. I don't dislike the character at all. I was just remarking that, for a protagonist, he's pretty much a dick. I'm obviously fine with semi-unlikeable characters based on the TV shows you know that I like.

You're one of the Lost fans, along with Irishjayhawk, I wanted to interact with most as I watch the whole series. But I can't do that if you assume that everything I say about Lost is an attack on the show.

Ok, here's the thing. I really didn't think you would like the show, but I wanted you to watch it, so I thought me saying you won't like it would get you to watch it and like it. Sort of like when someone hypes up a movie and you are dissapointed, but just the opposite.

I understand the thought process but it isn't working as intended. I mean, at first yeah, I started watching it because people I like liked it and because I didn't think that I'd like it. But keeping up the schtick is just annoying to me now because it isn't constructive to my experience.

Wait, lol, who are Paulo and Nikki? That was an awkward introduction of new characters - they were just inserted into a scene as if they'd been there all along.

Yeah it is weird. When I first saw that episode I was confused.

Paulo and Nikki are kind of a running Lost gag, ever since that episode...

To be honest, so far I think your assessment of what you've watched is pretty reasonable.

You didn't notice them wandering around on the beach in the first two seasons? Neither did I.

Reaper takes a much deeper interest in things than I do. Honestly, a lot of you do. It's not a bad thing. I consider my very simplistic - I just watch the show (or whatever show) and decide if I'm enjoying my time. If I am, I continue to watch. If I'm not, I don't.

Reaper - and lots of others - look more deeply into whatever show/song/artist and brings up things that I wouldn't or don't pay attention to.....like the music, etc. While I don't always agree with his views, he's got some good ones from time to time.

But, I also agree with Buck....Charlie was one of my favorites.

I have to disagree with Buck on Charlie. I liked what the ended up doing with him but during the seasons with a focus on him it was meh. He wasn't one of my favorites but he's far from my least favorite.

I'm actually surprised you're enjoying it as much as you are. What I'm more curious about is whether you would have thought many of these "nitpicks" (what have you) are red herrings when it actually aired. That is, would you have called them as being red herrings without having seen the finale/random episodes here and there.

How far are you in Season 3?
