LOST...well, let's hope they can uphold their quality because the first 2 years have been great.As much as I like LOST, I hope they don't drag it out beyond a few years. I hope it is a prescripted story arc.
There is something inherently watchable about LOST that I don't find in the X-Files. I can watch episodes of LOST over and over again and enjoy them still and see things that I hadn't before. The X-Files doesn't do that for me.
The only other series I can watch ad nauseam is the original LAW & ORDER, especially the episodes with our beloved Lennie Briscoe, aka Jerry Orbach.

Lisa Wrote:They've been showing them here...Arrgh! I called ABC.TV in New York and expressed my ire, and I sent an email to abc.com. Fiddle faddle! I doubt they will take me seriously but I cannot stand not having LOST available in the NY area when it is available elsewhere. That means some idiot programmer made a conscious decision to not show LOST in New York.
