I'm lost on "Lost" too, but at least I'm not whining about it...


I've been trying to ignore all the bitterly virulent and unconstructive criticism of "Lost" that seems to have gotten louder and more obnoxious before this season even started. But this is just too stupid to ignore. This was in the Minneapolis Star Tribune:

"Lost" is like the TV version of driving to Mount Rushmore: Three-quarters of the way into the long, dreary haul, you know it's not going to be worth it. But you might as well keep going.  ("I'm lost on 'Lost'" by Chris R)

You, sir, are a moron. Not only do you take two pages of newspaper space bitching about a show you personally don't like, you liken it to visiting a beloved national monument. What's more, that "long, dreary haul" goes through the Badlands - which features some of the most beautiful scenery in the country. Way to undermine your argument.

I personally hate "24", but I'm not going to waste everyone's time by ranting endlessly about it in a major newspaper and comparing it to, say, a trip to Disneyworld. Save it for the watercooler.
