I have finished watching all 5 seasons of Lost.
Also been reading LostPedia to fill in the blanks.

Now I may watch the shows over again, a few shows at a time.

1. How long did it take you from the first episode to the last?
I did it over the course of about 4 months. Pretty much gave up on watching any other television during that time, but much better than dragging it out over years and sitting through commercials!

5. It only took 4 days.
I needed an escape from raal life.

I think it was better watching the show this way.

It was good.

The people on the show did age in 5 seasons.

13. I did sleep.
I needed a break, couldn't go anywheres.

I had fun.

It was hard to watch only a few episodes at a time.

Early voting is starting soon so I won't have the time to watch anything.

Each show was 43 minutes.

7. Well I knew the island was special.
I need to watch the show again slower and make notes.

I know who everybody is and story line.

Ben has to be the most interesting person on the show.

The many twists and turns in the show was great, never knew who was telling the truth.

Still not sure about the Others, some are natives and others have joined them.

Jacob was cool.

I liked what happened to the islanad.

I did notice that Sawyer's father had a connection with Johh Locke's parents.

Need to watch it again to make up my mind on a few things.

4. Best show on television
I've been hooked since seeing commercials for the series premiere in 2004. I cannot wait to see the final season, but I'm also sorry to see it end. I hope they end it where they can do some kind of spin-off.

I think watching it through on dvd would be a much better way to watch it. Especially during season 2, when it would be off a couple of weeks; by the time it came back, you weren't sure what the hell was going on.

Another good site for episode recaps is televisionwithoutpity.com. I always read there full recaps of the episodes after seeing them because they always manage to catch something I missed.

I want to wait until the final season is over, and then watch all six seasons in a row.

6. The final season
I must remind myself to NEVER CLICK ON L O S T THREADS. My Lost viewing are via DVD. Hopefully we won't have to wait a year for Season 6 to come out. Unless there's a spin-off - Sawyer & Hurley: The New Odd Couple sit com.

8. I like Hurley,
Sawyer did change over time.

I would never have watched this show over the years.

I would have lost interest, did that with several shows.

Lost will gain more fans with the dvds or hulu after the show goes the air.

9. Watching it week to week is a bit
like torture. Then you have the occasional week off and then the long nine month hiatus. The first two seasons aired from November to April so there were a lot of off weeks between episodes.

It's fun to speculate during the week and read the many LOST forums and blogs. That's part of the fun.

11. I did start to watch the show in the beginning.
I would miss a show or two.

My life got really busy, I just stopped watching tv.

I wasn't ready for Lost, now I am.

The show will gain fans with the dvds.
