I think that I’m done with Lost. Yep…pretty sure that I’m done with it. I’ve watched all that I can watch. I’ve suspended my disbelief far enough. I felt strongly enough about the first two seasons that I forgave the last two. I continued to watch when the “monster” turned out to be a cloud of black smoke. I willingly trudged along as more questions went unanswered…and more, and more, and more. And now…not even the sweet freckled face of Evangeline Lily can lure me back. Because I’ve seen The Matrix Trilogy. I know how this ends. It ends with a deus ex machina in the form a baby’s face made out of robots. It ends with someone waking up and saying “Oh my God. I just had the craziest dream. I was on an Island…and you were there, and Uncle Jack, and Farmer Sawyer. Man…I sure am glad that I don’t feel lost anymore.” I no longer have faith that these writers know where they’re heading. They have officially written themselves into a black abyss in my opinion. Done. Finished. Over. I throw in the towel at a giant, wooden time-traveling wheel apparently stuck in an arctic cave at the center a of a tropical island. And I’m supposed to be OK with all of this because Daniel Faraday says it can happen…and he’s a physicist y’all. Respect. Well…I’m just not buying it, folks.
That being said…wouldn’t you rather skip Lost tonight and come out to see the 3rd show of Batterymouth’s six week run at the Apollo Theater Studio?
See what I did there?

amen brother. i bought a VCR so i could tape the first season.
started bailing second season, and officially got off the island mid way thru the 3rd.
no more lies, no more false dreams…
I couldn’t agree more. I loved me some season 1. Season 2 was okay. After season 3, I realized they had absolutely no idea what they were doing and I never came back. I was convinced I made the right decision after I heard that time travel had made its way into the show.
Hey mofo. I actually broke up with LOST too. I’m done with it. No more TV for Nickd. BUT, I didn’t hear about your show last night until just now, and now, unless I could travel time, is too late.
I will be at your next show on Wednesday.
So anyway, let me continue my story from EVITE for Mark’s birthday (see there, a continuation worth following - meh meh meeeh).
Ahem. So, after we take out Hall and Oates and we make up and they come in for some Karaoke, Oates realizes his throat hurts from the closeline Mark gave him. He’s cool with it though, and offers the Birthday Kid a chance to sing with Hall. After that, we end up eating pancakes till dawn.
I love that story…

I’m making a comment!!
You sure are, E.J. You sure are.
Now wait just a Dharma pickin’ minute. Are you all really that quick to give up on something that you loved. Do you not realize that love is not always perfect. If lost were your girlfriend of two years would you bail on her, just because she had a bad year and she was depressed. Just because things aren’t so easy for you doesn’t mean you give up on them. You haven’t even given LOST a fair chance. Yes I agree the third season with the polar bear cages was terrible, and I was close to abandoning ship, but I said no. You take the bad along with the good. And you know what. I’m the better for it because I was treated to some amazing episodes in the 4th and 5th season. And now this season is great, because they are finally starting to wrap things up. No I believe they didn’t know where they were going in the third season, that’s why they set a cap on it and have something to work toward. For shame on you judgemental improvisors. I would think if anyone would appreciate figuring things out as you go along, it would be you.
Also you guys had a great show.
Zoran, Lost isn’t like a girlfriend who just got depressed for a year. Lost is like a girlfriend who seemed really cool at first, but then started violently beating the crap out of you while spouting out nonsense every Wednesday at 9/8pm Central. At some point you need to have the strength to say “I deserve better” and just walk away.
Oh, and I’m glad you liked the show this week.

[...] importantly…it was funny as all get out. So skip Lost this week (see previous blog post here) and come on out to watch a night of uninhibited hilarium with our friends…the Cosby [...]
