The LOST Bandwagon

I see they won the Emmy for Best Drama last evening!

Thanks to the recommendations from many people, Donica bought the complete first season of "Lost" a week ago and brought it with us to Germany. It's a fusing of elements from the movie Cast Away, Survivor, The Twilight Zone and even a dash of Gilligan's Island, and received 12 nominations. Over this past weekend we watched 8 episodes (45 min. each), which is 1/3 of the season. Our goal is to finish the remaining episodes before we return to Atlanta at the end of the month.

We're not big on watching TV at home except for the news and sports. It's hard with Donica's here-n-there schedule to maintain continuity with any series. There's no English TV here at our apartment in Hannover except for BBC news. But thanks to new DVD packaging, we've been able to get hooked on "24" (can hardly wait for last season to come out!) and now "Lost."

It was fun to see this awards photo of the "Lost" characters: they dress up well!

  2. Me too!....along with 24 and the original CSI. The best way to watch a TV Series is to rent/buy it after the season and watch the whole thing over a few weeks.

    Then...you can save your "real" TV time for important things like NCAA Basketball and UM/MSU/UGA Football games, and of course the BRAVES now and again.

    I like that Ginnie is now watching these series with me. I think she is hooked too!
