Sloppy Storytelling Does Not Equal Mysterious
[Read the article: Tease me]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I absolutely loved the first season of LOST - I found it dark, surreal, inspiring, incredibly suspenseful, and wonderfully mysterious. Mid-way through Season 2 I started getting suspicious, and the beginning of Season 3 just confirmed it for me: LOST has no respect for its audience. What was once a fascinating cast of characters has devolved into a one-dimensional, macho-fueled bunch of idiots. The flashbacks have become tedious and formulaic. And, worst of all, the show's "mysteries" are now just aimless "plot" developments that are picked up and left off without any regard for a greater narrative. The obsessive fans haven't figured the island out because there is nothing to figure out.
