Lost

I have to start by saying, I am REALLY sorry. Like, really. 

Sorry because this is so late. Sorry because I'm lame and don't have anything better to do with my days. Sorry I get so caught up in this stuff. 

But what. the heck. is up. with. LOST. 

I know. I know. This was, like, almost a decade ago that people even gave half a crap about this show. I never watched it. Not because I was being a TV snob, but because it was at the beginning of the return of the dramatic TV show. At least, I think so. I didn't watch much TV my first few years of college. 

ANYWAY. I thought I'd write a post about it since, apparently, I'm caught in the craze... retroactively.

I don't watch TV shows for these reasons.

1. I get way too caught up and emotionally involved with the characters. Prime example. I'm still mourning the loss of Will, the Fresh Prince, and I'm already dreading life without Barney and the whole MacClaren crew. 

2. I get fed up with the string-along style of writing with twists and turns that keep people invested. I still watch. 

3. I am kind of snooty. 

There are so many stupid people on this show. 

stupid.

stupid.

stupid and disobedient.

stupid.

stupid and hateful.

extremely stupid.

Though.. none of them were stupid enough for me to stop watching. 

Anyway. Were you guys fans of Lost? I appreciate that all the seasons are available on Netflix. I think I heard the series finale (I'm only on season 4) ruins the whole thing. So I guess I have more to be mad about in the future. 

What shows do you watch? Which should be next on my list?

challenge, day 11: T.V.

i'm a little early.  sue me.

i just recently did a post about shows i don't like to miss, so i'm going to do my favorite TV shows of all time. in order.  and don't judge me because my top three countdown has five shows on it.  it's my blog, i do what i want.

#3. amen / the jeffersons

 

there is a common denominator here: sherman hemsley.  he cracks me up.  my parents recorded the reruns of amen on TVOne for, like, 5 months and we'd all sit down as a family and watch them.  good times. if you have never seen a sherman hemsley sitcom, you need to watch one.  he is a ridiculous, obnoxious little man and i love him.

i've seen every episode of this show and can quote most of them.  i almost put family matters right here next to it, but six shows on a top three count down is just pushing it.  so just pretend family matters is on this list, too.  this is just from back when TV was good.  downright good!  where have the good old days of prime time tv gone??  i almost can't watch shows now!  anyway, moving on...

#1. i love lucy / the lucy-desi comedy hour

i can't pick one of the two, so i choose both.  this is just my favorite era and my favorite couple of all time.  i think, watching lucy late night during my middle school years, is when i began to aspire to being a housewife.  her shenanigans were just so sweet.  if i had to choose one show to watch for all time, i think i could survive with lucille ball and desi arnaz.  it all started with summer block party on TV Land... anyone remember that??  i will own these on DVD and soon.  granted, i've seen all the episodes already, but that's beside the point.  and i also own a book with a synopsis of each episode of the i love lucy show and the lucy-desi comedy hours.  that is also beside the point.

the point is that i can watch them endlessly from now until the cows come home.

oh lucy.

how i love you.
