Nice addition with the drool. :)

I tried morphing the two pictures with MorphX but that proved to not work well (for these pictures)... so I resorted to Graphic Convertor... however it's not drool! It's the blood of the people on the island!!!!!!! Or drool.
 
Sadly I missed the show, because my wife didn't finish her paperwork till late. So we didn't have dinner until after 8pm. Her comment was, I don't think it will be any good anyway.
 
i've heard very good things about this series, reviews etc saying that its one of the best new shows of the new season. I wouldn't miss it!!!!

Heres what reviewers had to say:

"Hercules the Strong gives it five stars (out of five) and says:

… the fall’s best new show … What’s great? The characters, the action, the mysteries, the pacing, the comedy, the many grisly mishaps, the special effects, the twist endings. The huge and unprecedented number of crash survivors, which should make for some fascinating drama as this strange new society is forged. The three harrowing, and I mean harrowing, planebound flashbacks, which should give many a frequent flyer nightmares for years. The cast generally, and [Jorge] Garcia’s repeated use of the noun “dude” in particular. The many fascinating loose ends, so certain to leave audiences craving more (just as the loose ends left by the “Alias” pilot did three years ago).


Variety says:

expensive, intriguing … More than any of the current shows lensing in Hawaii, "Lost" makes sumptuous use of its tropical surroundings … Abrams (who co-wrote and directed the pilot) also does a nice job layering on the tension … Abrams' misspent youth serves him well tapping into various sci-fi conventions, as he has to some extent with the spy world on "Alias"


The Hollywood Reporter says:

… a rollicking good adventure drama, starting with a pilot episode that plants the seeds from which inviting stories should sprout … The adventure component is above average for the small screen, but what seals this deal are the intriguing survivors. … Despite the hurry-up schedule under which the pilot was shot, thought was obviously given to creating scenes of suspense, conflict and physical attraction. …


Entertainment Weekly gives it an “A” and says:

Fall’s best new drama … I was tempted to hedge on my final grade because Lost is the kind of show that could go anywhere. Then I realized that’s exactly why I should commit to the ride.


TV Guide says:

… Abrams has done it again, bringing a thrilling, sensational urgency to the hokiest of premises. Relentlessly suspenseful, lavishly produced and terrifically cast with a large ensemble … Lost is a real find. If viewers discover it, they’ll want to come back.

8 p.m. Wednesday. ABC."

24 and alias return in january woohoo!!! :D
 
Aren't these the same people that say "The Cat In The Hat was a wonderful romp through the days of our youth"? Liars! Liars!
 
Speaking of 24, what is the plot this year, besides it taking place in a day.

I wonder what hour of wasted time THEY were watching? The only reason that I can see in watching more is to find out if this is "reality" survival fictional series or some "fantasy" series. For a weekly series I am only wiling to keep track of 10 to 12 characters. Not 48 "survivors". And some Jurassic Park reject.

I hope that ABC loses their pensions on this one.
 
You sure its not one of these?

Anybody still watching this show? It's not stellar, but it's still ok. I like the fat guy (sorry, fat guy, I don't remember your name) who wasn't much help with surgery. But maybe you shouldn't put me in charge of picking the best character, since my favorite character in Jurassic Park was Dennis Nedry, the annoying programmer.

The best part of Lost episode #2 was the revelation about the handcuffs.

i still liked it a lot. i thnk it's going to get better too.

you're right about the reality/fantasy thing though...did they ever say it wasn't fantasy?? i'm happy with it either way honestly.


so it was shot in Hawai'i??

I prefer "reality" of L&O, CSI, and warming up to Clubhouse.

I'm pretty sure it was 16 years.

Yes, although it was difficult to hear that because of the middle eastern man's accent.

I like the show. I don't really care about the unrealistic nature of some of it. About 48 survivors, I'm sure we won't meet them all. But the ones we have are sure interesting. I mean that whole Kate being a criminal thing is going to be revealed next episode.
