thanks jorgelito...
so we are halfway through the first season of lost.
it has an interesting premise: a planeload of models crashes on a strange jurrasic-park-like island. the models array themselves as social types, kinda like a mideval "everyman" play. there is something big and malevolent that runs around and does scary things. apparently, it was decided that the big malevolent thing is scariest if it is either (a) not shown at all of (b) shown as the camera. i kinda like the second one tho: my preferred scenario is that the show is about the show, and that the actors are being chased aroundby the camera.
anyway, the way the show seems rigged up so far, character development is driving stuff, it happens via flashback, and it seems that these character development segments are gradually ratcheting up in terms of lunacy. as that happens, i am finding the show more interesting.
it's fun. thanks folks.
