Are You a Fan of "Lost"?

Post by morebooks4me »

There is a new petition online for "Lost" fans to sign. They are trying to get Tom Sawyer's Island at Disneyland in California changed to "Lost Island". They recently closed the exhibit and are draining the river.

I'm a huge fan of the show and I think that could be a really fun exhibit, although I'm not sure Disneyland is the appropriate location since they seem more geared towards children. It might be better for a park like Universal Studios or Six Flags.

Regardless, I signed the petition. They plan to present it to show's executive on the night of the season premier.

Good idea!

As for the show, im a huge fan and have been since the first season; however, i think season 4 and 5 were lacking somewhat. The whole tone of the show changed dramatically since the flash forward ending of Season 3-personally, i think the show became far too convoluted from this point onwards.

Much of Season 4 and 5 was spent jumping back and forth in time for no real coherent reason and also to fill in the gaps for some mysteries like the construction of the Hatch and the death of Danielle's crew in 1989 from the sickness- all a bit lazy and slipshod.

I understand that the show was originally only going to run for 3 seasons which would have been an ideal timeline to wrap up the show but inevitably, popularity and network pressure to continue with a show that generated huge revenue and peak advertising rates led to a gradual decline in the quality for a show that was just looking for some plotlines to "stretch" a story that only needed three seasons to conclude.

Having said that, i am very excited to see what the final season has in store, i hope it goes out with a bang and i remain confident that the final reveal will pull the rug from under all our feet :shock:

Unfortunately, I am not he fan of this game. For me it seems to be quite usual. Some people try to struggle living in some hard conditions, but there are many people in the world who have such conditions all the time and all their life is a struggle.
