Lost on DVD

Back around Christmas, I convinced my husband's Mom that he'd really like to have the first season of Lost on DVD--read that I'd really wanted Lost on DVD and the husband was interested in watching it too. Sure enough, Husband got Lost. We began watching the episodes this week. Me likey.

What's the delay in getting started you may ask? Well, one of Husband's co-workers loaned us the first three seasons of 24 when he learned I was pregnant with the baby. We had to get through those seasons before we could start a new series. The first season of 24 was great. We were riveted.

The second season was going strong, but then...we noticed a few holes in the plot. The impossible conditions became comical.

Then the third season, and I just didn't care that much. Sure, I appreciated it when Jack finally killed Nina (sorry if that's a spoiler for anyone out there) but, within 24 hours he gets over his heroin addiction? Really? I don't get over a simple cold in 24 hours and Jack beats heroin? We perservered though. Husband would watch the episode while I slept through it on the couch. I would then watch the "prevoiusly on 24" & promptly fall asleep again.

Now that we've watched as Jack Bauer has single-handedly saved the world not once, not twice, but thrice, we're ready to change gears. That's where Lost comes in. Husband and I have only seen a few episodes, but I already like it--especially what is left unseen and untold. The only thing I'm wondering is if it will take on an X-Files- like element of unexplained phenomena that becomes convuluted and difficult to understand. No spoilers on the other seasons please!
