I forgot to say this in my original post, but this season has me thinking about the Gilligan’s Island reunion show — Return the Gilligan’s Island — which, if I remember right, ends the with the castaways being stuck on the same island they started from.

Anyone else on this season so far? I’m finding the flashforwards to be a welcome relief from the flashbacks.

I watched the first two seasons of Lost with bemusement (polar bears! mysterious underground bunkers! those horn trills just before the commercial breaks!), but got completely turned off when the characters were imprisoned by the “others.” Watching Sawyer and Kate languish in cages, and Jack locked in some room, was like watching some some strange Guantanamo reenactment. Not my idea of pleasurable viewing.

hi!

i hated lost for awhile, i think because i came in during season 3 and there was this big black amorphous demon thing– and, you know, the real john locke just wouldn’t have written that into his script. anyway, the show is way more lord of the flies than Gilligan to me. i’ve been watching the recent episodes and am hooked– they’re about to get off the island!! …or are they…?

i don’t identify with any Gilligan character (except maybe Gilligan?), but i did always want the professor and mary ann to get down and dirty. all that sexual tension!
