Lost It's Way
The "fall season finale" of Lost aired tonight. Nothing interesting happened. This is increasingly the case with this show. There was a time where the writers had succesfully built up some suspense and intrigue. But now the show has become Seinfeld on an island.
Oh sure, things happen. Some characters even die. But the story never changes. And the more we learn (as each episode reveals the tiniest scraps of info) the more it begins to seem that there's nothing to learn. The people are just people. The bears are just bears.
I'm willing to dub tonight's episode as the episode when the show Jumped the Shark. Not that I wont continue to watch it, hoping for a resurgence of interesting plot-lines and character interactions. But I think, more and more, that the writers have only a handful of ideas to stretch out between 16 episodes (the remainder of this season).

no kidding. i'm not sure what the crazy others are up to, but at this point it has to be something so perverse and unsatisfying that it's not going to be a good way to end the current kidnapping crisis. plus it's not going to end for at least four months because they're being stupid with the schedule, which just makes me even more annoyed.
