re: #463 Walter L. Newton

It’s the ONLY hour of TV that I watch. LOST is not your average prime time show, it’s very much like reading an Eco novel and quantum physics and a good primer on religion and a big dash of time travel to mix it all up with. Into season 5 now, one more season to go next year. Show had basic plot arcs all laid out before season one started, and the producers asked ABC for six years to tell the story.

This is a revelation to me. Six years to tell the story; so, this thing is thought out, it’s a coherent narrative, and not just some crappy flash-in-the-pan chewing gum for the eyes.

I may have to quite job #2 and start to study this.
