I never watched Lost when it ran and even when it ended in 2010. My friends kept pushing but I never gave it a chance until a month ago. Once I made past a few episodes, I was hooked!!
How much have you watched? The first 2 seasons are fantastic, but I watched every season in the space of 2 weeks and after season 3 it just goes down hill and eventually became a chore for me to watch. I found the ending so very frustrating because there are so many unanswered questions...
I'm watching the last season now. Yes there are many questions that are never answered and the timelines never get explained, but I'm still enjoying it. I found the many, multi-faceted characters to be very easy to relate to and interesting to follow.
