A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away there once was a TV show named LOST. It was about a bunch of people who survived a plane crash on a mysterious island somewhere in the Pacific. To say I was obsessed with it would be an understatement. At the same time a few people I knew, including my doddily doo Cerpts over at The Land of Cerpts and Honey were in the Bloggersphere. Now I liked to read all the blogs but I couldn't comment on them (at least not anonymously anyway) without signing up for a blog myself. So I decided to make one. Now this was long before The Man Hole was ever a thing. I had first heard about LOST while listening to a local Philadelphia radio show that did a LOST recap every morning after the latest episode aired. I didn't hear them discuss the first season at all but I did hear them talking about the ending of the first season. This was the late summer just before the second season began to air in the fall of '05. I enjoyed the show and named my blog after the show. The blog was called The Dharma and Greg Project . You can check it out if you want. I post a lot of nonsense early on in the blog and then after a while it's pretty much just LOST. My episode recaps didn't start until the season three finale I believe it was. Either way, the point is, I told you that so I could tell you this: my final post concerning LOST was fifteen years ago this very day. So guess what I'm doing? That's right I'm doing a LOST re-watch. Those of you who have never seen the show you might wanna give it a go. It's on Netflix, yes the entire run of the show, but I'm not watching that I have the entire show on blue ray which contains way more material than Netflix offers but for someone new to the show it's enough. Now for those of you who were with me in the beginning, there is no way I can do the same in depth posts like I did back then. I just don't have the energy for it and my hands won't allow me to type all of that again. Don't get me wrong, I'm still going to recap many of the episodes (especially the ones I never did in the first place) just not as painstakingly as I did back then. Anyone that was with me for the original ride knows how much there was then. It still exists in my minds eye and to quote someone I was never very fond of but am completely on board with, well on this one thing anyway, I agree when he said "We have to go back!". And back I am going. Join me, won't you, Freckles?
I have been thinking of a rewatch of LOST for awhile. Haven't watched since the original run.
