I didn't watch Lost when it first came out so I thought I'd give it a try when it became available for streaming. We were really hard up for television when it came out because viewed without the rose tinted spectacles of nostalgia it's obvious how mediocre it really is. Sorry folks but it just really isn't very good. To call it one of the greatest television shows of all time is to parrot what you've heard. This emperor has no clothes.
