re: LOST re-watch

One of the best character driven writing ever. Such a great premise.

The mysteries were addicting and the internet was abuzz with trying to decipher it all.

It was an amazing time to be alive. Similar to the early seasons of Game of Thrones.

And just like GoT, Lost turned out to be a million mysteries with no real answers, plot hooks and plot holes and promises of answers to questions by people who had no fricking clue what the answers were.

In the end, the writers played every sympathy card and tugged at every heart string as hard as they could, in the hopes that the sheer tidal wave of emotion would flood people's brains with serotonin and make them forget about all those pesky plot holes and unanswered questions.

And it worked for some. But others, that had time to get over the image of Jack lying there staring at the sky as the faithful yellow lab lay down beside him, started to remember all those things that didn't add up. All those promises of answers to questions, still unanswered.

I am one of those people. So frick Lost.

And frick GoT

And frick Battlestar Gallactica.

All three played the same bullshite game, and it sucked.
