Lost viewers - please advise me

[Thinker]

I don't know that there is a thread to discuss ONLY the first season, is there? Even that's going to take a LONG time for us to get through, as we have a busy summer ahead, and we're planning to chip away at the show.

You don't seem to be the only poster on this part of the site watching season 1 for the first time. Possibly this thread could be diverted to cover that.

So, we've finished the first part of the pilot for the series and have started into the second part a bit.

We're all coming up with LOTS of questions, I can tell you that.

You will have many more questions in the episodes to follow - with very few answers. The characters have many secrets; the island has many mysteries; some assume prominence, others sort of drop from sight.

Well, I think I'll just start a new thread about it and see if anyone responds. I just don't want people to give things away to me and I don't want to give things away to them.

Perhaps that's not quite possible, but I can try.

It's like when you haven't seen the lastest movie during it's first week - then people everywhere seem to feel perfectly free to talk about it. I know Lost has been around longer than that, but you get my gist.

We haven't all seen everything there is to see! Unbelievable as that may seem!

Well, it's a done deal! I've started a new thread, so we'll see what happens. I'll catch up at some point and then......

BTW, A Very Happy Belated Birthday to you! I hope you had a wonderful day!

Thank you very much...

I know that if you are a loyal fan of the show Lost, this will shock you, but I've never watched the show.

That is, until the other day.

We had the DVD out from the library and were watching the pilot. And we didn't even have time to watch that much of the pilot before we had to return it. We only got to the exploration of the front of the plane and the short time the 3 people had with the pilot. (Trying not to give anything away for someone like me who has never seen the show).

So, here's the thing. This show starts off very violently. No surprise, even to me, I knew already it involved a plane crash.

I found it interesting and very frightening. Overwhelming at times, which I'm sure is intended.

Is the show ALWAYS like this, every show? It had a real feel of Jurassic Park about it. Or even Aliens. Tons of tension. I do like those kinds of movies, but only once in a while.

The concept looks SO interesting to me, but I don't know that I want a real roller coaster ride with each and every show. And so much blood and guts.

So, I think you get my drift.

Without giving the show away to me, can you broadly catorgorize it's overall approach to story-telling?

Thanks for all your help.

And the rest is history.

Actually I just missed you guys!

Me too. It's going to be a long summer. And fall, I suppose.

Yeah, it IS going to be a loooong time.

I was so surprised to see my original thread back....kind of the way things go with Lost I guess. Nothing really is ever truly dead.

Thinker and UScognito were the 2 original "Lost" friends who got me more interested and answered tons of my questions. And many others of you did, too.

Thanks!

For the heck of it...I'm posting with this account too...even though it's still having problems. I just had to, considering the circumstances of this account coming back from the dead.
