ok so i have just finished watching Lost from season 1 to 6 and i have to say it is one of the worst series i have ever watched and i am amazed that it has amazing reviews!

the ending is absolute bollocks!

it was almost as bad as that film with Scarlett Johanson called Under the skin!

Under the skin is the shittest film made since 1200BC!

SPOILER ALERT

I stuck with it when it was broadcast and largely enjoyed it as it went on, but I felt cheated by the ending... no real answers, lots of loose ends, just a warm, snuggly group hug into the light.

Never watched it but fairly sure I would not need 6 series to decide if something is rubbish.

Kind of like getting to the bottom of a beer glass and then deciding it tasted a bit off.

I watched it when it was originally aired, and the first several seasons were great.

A Level maths became more of a Lost discussion group than a subject lesson. But then the ending was awful.

It was the weakest series wrap-up I can recall seeing, none of the questions were answered and it left so many loose ends untied. But not in a good way where it lets the viewer decide for yourself.

First scene of the first episode - jet engine still running on beach despite no fuel supply as completely detached. Not ingesting sand and anything that happens to be before it, but just instead a random passenger. From this point on I went with 'meh'

However, first and second series I was kind of enjoying it. Went downhill after that and if it wasn't for my wife having a phobia of leaving things unfinished I'd have stopped there and been fine with that

It was written by the same script writers as 9/11 and Sandy Hook. It's assumed you don't ask questions about inconsistencies and plot holes Wink

YES PADDY! Finally someone else who thought it was boring. People look at me like i've pissed on their kids when I say it's boring, slow and waay too fucking long. I just wanted Frodo to get eaten by a death eater.... might be mixing up Harry Potter there.

Lost - was amazing for the first 2 seasons, 3rd season went a bit "WTF is going on?" Then it died on it's arse as the writers didn't have a fecking clue what they were doing. Started little stories and then couldn't figure out how to end them so just didn't tie up any loose ends. It could have been a great 3 series programme if they'd have kept it simple.

I didn't start watching them until a year ago. Season 1 and 2 I was hooked, then I got bored.

I think Lost was never that good, I think it was just a huge hype machine really. I get the same impression from 24 and various other hyped US Series. Ironically some of the best US Series are totally unhyped. The first few series of Breaking Bad for example, and stuff like Community, Big Bang Theory etc.

I also disliked Lord Of The Rings. Never really dug fantasy and I also can't see the connection with motorcycles. Especially as I don't recall Frodo ever riding an R1 into Mordor.

But in an alternate world things don't have to obey the laws of physics or reality. Shifty

Uurrghhh, don't even get me started.

So many plot holes, inconsistencies and ridiculous moments it's untrue. No literally it is untrue; it's fiction, poorly written fiction. Hasn't even got the excuse of supposedly being fantasy sci-fi.

For example - if anyone was going to kidnap the daughter of a special agent why would they employ two stoners to do it for them? Answer - they wouldn't, of course, as stoners can be notoriously unreliable.

Further - when his daughter does finally get an opportunity to get clear of her spastic capturers she's already been the subject of an intense man-hunt for some hours. It would have made for lots of common sense then, when she turns up at a police station, for the specially trained agents to have gone to get her themselves..... But let's leave it to a couple of doughnut doofus coppers in a squad car. I suppose they had to see it out to 24 hours somehow Rolling Eyes

i agree that The Lord of the Rings 1,2,3 and hobbit films are over long and boring at many parts, but the books are great!

you only see an R1 in mordor if you close your eyes and imagine it there.

i would rather burn the R1 with fire and brimstone than ever let it set foot on the island that lost is set on!

the best thing about lost was how beautiful the actual island is and that i kept perving over Kate and shannon otherwise meh!


The Wire, The Sopranoes, Game of Thrones, now those are some very good quality shows.

24 was meh after season 1,

Prison break made me vomit after season 2

Marjay Laughing

another thing that pissed me off with lost is how easy people get totally knocked out Laughing really!
almost as bad as moth telling you that the eagles have come to save you!

im struggling with The Wire vs Game of Thrones.

The Wire got the whole drug game so on point it was amazing that they could actually make a show that dipicts real life so well.

I used to work in a police station and the politics that goes on is practically almost bang on!

If you want some giggles watch : 'orange is the new black' and 'lilyhammer' both Netflix original series.

Homeland and White Collar are 2 programmes I'm currently making my way through.

I particularly love the fact that the actor who played Bubbles' (Andre Royo) was so realistic even when the cameras weren't rolling that a Baltimore drug addict gave him some heroin and said he looked like he needed it more.

Watched first 2 or 3 seasons till sky stopped channel 4 showing it. Kinda enjoyed it but got tired of the endless questions. When I lost lost, I didn't miss it.

Though I'm told the ending is the same as Ashes to ashes. Loved ashes and life on mars. Smile different vibe and feel to the program to lost though. And the ending to ashes was absolutely spot on .

I concluded it was utter shite in one of the first episodes of season one when some huge beastie was running amok (munched the pilot iirc) and it wasn't shown. Cheap-ass-budget dreck.

You do get to see it if you watch later seasons, but it#s just a fucking plume of smoke.

I love that programme, I'm watching them again now. But the ending was just utter shite - leaves too many questions
