what is with this show

its been running for 7 episodes or so in the UK and up until now...absolutely nothing has happened...the last 3 episodes have consisted of jack running through the jungle...the pregnant woman drinking some water...and the oriental guy fighting the black guy over a watch

the only thing of any symbolic importance was the little black and white stones that jack found on the body in the cave next to the water because they are a reference to what the old bald guy was telling the kid in the first episode with the backgammon pieces

he's the key to this programme (the bald guy)...the line "do you want to know a secret" that he says to the kid but we never hear what the secret is...

I'm really enjoying this show. I really like Lock and Charlie the most (even though I was dissapointed with Charlie's CRAP band last night).

I enjoy watching all the little stories. I keep forgetting there's a bigger plotline going on, because I'm interested in the characters.

However - the show is so unashamedly American. Who the hell talks like these people? Still a good watch though.

I enjoy the flashbacks also, that build up the characters and to get to know the backgrounds of them all, so it keeps me interested till we find out big things in the show, which I heard we don't even in the finale...

It's a silly fun watch on television which is wonderful to look at even if it's a bit of good old nonsense. Great programme to relax your mind to...

if you think NOTHING has happened... then you havent really been watching at all 😑

having.... erm.... aquired all the episodes, your going to get more and more annoyed as it goes along then... season 2 won't even answer most of the questions your going to get....

Actually if you check on lost-media season 2 is all about answering our questions...

the most exciting it got was the guy shooting a polar bear...and a couple of fights...and some dumb woman who we weren't even introduced to drowning

the rest has been looking at the back stories of the characters...which could potentially take up the rest of the series...and the next series too

as jeremy clarkson put it.. jack bauer does more in 24 minutes than has happened in 8 days of lost

But if you dont get to know the characters and their background, you wont know why they do the things they do and same goes for why they are the way they are, and how they react to certain situations. For example Kate, if you just knew that she was a criminal youd wonder what she did, then why she did it etc. This show is more about the people and the island and how its changing them...

If you don't like it stop complaining and trying to cause trouble. ✅ As the others said if u actually watch it propally you actually find out diffrent things...😐

like what...what have we actually found out beyond absolute basics

jack is a doctor and his father died

kate is a criminal

sayid was in the iraqi army

the asian guy is a gangster and his wife is the bosses daughte

charlie is a washed up musician/junkie

they're all stuck on an island with polar bears and some other big creature

the only interesting person in the whole thing is locke

just because a show is expensive doesn't make it good

the sopranos
the shield
24
spooks

all long running shows...all infinitely superior to lost (at least in the 7-8 episodes i've seen)

it better get real interesting real quick

This show is GREAT!!!! You people just need to get into to it. I watched the pilot and I was wanting more and more. You have to get to know the characters or it won't be interesting! You should try sitting down and watched the entire show because there is nothing boring about this show!

uh huh

ugh.....what is up with you freakin' complainers causing trouble on our beloved lost forum???

what is there to gain from complaining about how the show doesnt interest you?

...yep

it's a tv show your not meant to find out everything that happens all at once..only so many things can happen after all they're stuck on an island with a limited cast..learning about the characters background and where they're from it a key part of the show...you cant really say nothings happened after seeing a certain amount of episodes cause your obviously not watching properly..

if you dont like the show...stay out of the forum 😖

see...works both ways doesn't it....but seeing as when i reply...you just cant help yourself looking....then this isn't going to end

i dont want to find out everything at once...but i just dont think its neccessary to use 8 episodes to intoduce characters...

unless there is some intertwinning complex plot that means that each character is neccessary then i personally think they should have left out some of the charaters in order to keep the pace up a bit

because as it stands...if one of them was to die in the next episode...o wouldn't really care at all because the flashbacks only scratch the surface of the characters past...and they also take time away from connecting with their current situation so any empathy with the characters is pretty shallow at best

I agree a bit with the flashbacks, they shouldve put more time into the island and how they are doing on it now, but the point is that every character has a vital role so it was important to get to know them and what they did before the crash..
