i actually think this season has been really good. much better than last season. if you haven't enjoyed it, why? i think that ben and juliet are great characters and make things a lot more interesting. even charlie has become an interesting, dynamic character. and they have offered up some explanations, at least enough to keep people happy, i think. i remember saying this on here the last time there was a "lost" thread, but not knowing may be frustrating but it's what keeps you coming back. season 2 of "twin peaks," etc etc.
"24," on the other hand was just awful. i'm being generous when i give this latest season a D+.
