Anyone watch LOST??

SERIES finale tomorrow! I am so excited! I've been watching this ridiculous show since the first day it aired. Now it will finally be over.

Definitely heard of The Office...but not Breaking Bad! What is that about??

And...the first two seasons of LOST were really tough to deal with...due to the REALLY ANNOYING and stupid camerawork...and of course the plot was a bit confusing...but as time went on it got even more and more confusing!

I have really enjoyed it though. But it's been like one big long movie to me, that I never want to watch all over again. Maybe one day, 40 years from now, I'll forget most of it, and THEN I could watch it again. But for now, it's just too soon and SOOO much.

Breaking Bad is about a high school chem teacher who finds out he has lung cancer and decides to cook meth so he has some money to leave his family...AMC on Sundays. I'm sure you've heard of it or seen some commercial for it. The dad from Malcolm in the Middle is the main character (great actor)...amazing show.

"Lost" and ABC brought a lot of money to Hawaii, but they also got huge tax breaks to film there. I have to admit that I haven't watched a single episode, but I have been to the site where the exterior beach filming is done.

I don't have satellite or cable, haven't for years, so I don't watch any TV. I caught the first couple of episodes of LOST when I still did have TV and it confused me terribly, so I gave up on it.

For giggles, I watched Full Metal Jacket dubbed in French the other night...shows ya how bored I can get.

LOST is one of the few quality shows left. 99% of people say "I watched that once and it was so confusing/dumb", well this isn't JAG or Law and Order, you can't just tune in, three seasons in and expect to understand anything. There are those who have watched it from the beginning, and those who have never watched it at all.

Watched 'em all, except for any of the last season. So no telling what happens...

I watch them through Netflix, because I can't stand watching regular commercial TV. I like to be able to stop, rewind and pause... Also, I tend to work unusual ours, so I can't rely on being anywhere at the same time every week.

I agree! And thank you...honestly guys, if you don't watch it, why bother commenting? I watched it since the beginning and it is just amazing to get through all this. This last season has been crazy because they answered a bunch of questions but then made you wanna ask SO MANY MORE.

Erm...I'll TRY not to say anything, but this series finale is AWESOME! You're gonna love the last season of it! They do have the last season of it on hulu:

Also there are a bunch of target commercials featuring LOST stuff. It's hilarious and awesome!

I don't have AMC. lol No cable. So no, I haven't heard of it or seen a commercial for it. But I DO love the dad from Malcolm in the Middle. And I loved that show, so it might be worth a looksie when I go back to college and have cable again. Haha.

You didn't get the little black box thing? TV converter? I've never had satellite or cable. I just have the basic antenna. Bunny ears...haha
