... Lost, being Lost as to why i'm Lost, and just generally Lost!
This is a tuff one for me. I was so nearly going to RANT about this subject rather than RAVE, but I decided that I couldn't bullshit myself any longer.
In an age of shovelling a constant stream of tepid crap in the general direction of the TV viewing public, I often find myself wanting to put my size 11 through my television box. I have stood up, turned around and stared back into the toilet, and found more interesting and entertaining turds I have done than television programs of late.
Lately though, I have to admit that I have found myself strangely compelled to watch programs that are over-hyped, trashy, and not as good as everybody likes to make out. I include 'Little Britain' in this, and will no doubt have some sheep-like turd lickers bang on about how "I obviously don't get it", but I do. I just know that it isn’t all that.
Anyway I digress. My point is that I have become strangely drawn, compelled to watch, and borderline obsessed with the program Lost.
This show is completely unbelievable and utter trash. It has been over-hyped so much globally to the point where there are thousands of websites on the damn thing. It is flawed to the point where Lord of the Rings seems viable. And yet ...
And yet I dare you to watch the first few episodes without finding yourself getting sucked into what the hell is going on. I've found myself wasting precious oxygen by discussing; why they are all there? Where this island actually is? Are they in fact all dead and this is just some form of purgatory? Why are there Polar Bears on this island? What is the monster which you have only heard so far? Why each character might be there? How they all are linked together? Why certain flashbacks reveal certain information? Why? Why? Why?
Grrr ... it fucking irritates me beyond sharing a car journey to Glasgow with Jade Goody. And yet ...
Just the fact that I have wasted so much times with why's, where's, what's, how's and to's means that I just couldn't bring myself to RANT about it. So if someone offers you the chance of borrowing the DVD's when they are released, book yourself a free weekend and watch half of the first series. Just for the fact that it will push your natural human instinct to be curious about things you don't quite understand, I would say watch it. And if you don't have the natural human instinct to be curious about things - well fuck off back to your inbred, insignificant existence safe in the knowledge that nobody has any natural human instinct to be curious as to who the hell you are.
