ABC's LOST has easily become one of my favorite shows on television. It's episodes have "mind-boggling" plots which has people talking all week from episode to episode. LOST has become, what I believe to be, a television sensation of the 2000's. What is so unusual about LOST than any other show is that it had an end date; approximately four years ago, the shows creators announced that it was going to end in the spring of 2010. Currently there is only the series finale episode left, and I, like everyone else, has no clue how this show will end.; I feel as though there hasn't been a show before LOST that has required so much thinking. LOST has a huge fan-base with hundreds and thousands of blogs dedicated to the show; LOST fans on these sites refer to themselves as "Lostaways". Although LOST is in a completely different category than other television shows that have ended their run on a good note such as Everybody Loves Raymond, Friends, and Seinfeld, I believe the end of LOST will be just as bittersweet as it was for the other shows; I say bittersweet because I don't want to see it end, but I WANT SOME ANSWERS! (as do most LOST watchers, I'm sure)
ABC has already come up with two new shows, V (standing for The Visitors) and Flashforward (which was recently cancelled), with similar characteristics in that they, like LOST, have complicated plots and their episodes leave you wanting answers. I'm personally devastated (I know that sounds a bit dramatic) that LOST is coming to an end; I feel like I won't have anything to watch on Tuesdays ever again, but I know there is life after LOST.
