Second Blog; Lost
The final season of Lost premiered Tuesday February 2 on ABC. It was a two hour premiere with a one hour recap beforehand at 8:00. I never was interested in this show until my boyfriend, Dan brought it to my attention. Lost is his favorite television show and I began watching it with him from season one over winter break. When he left for school, I watched season two to season five on my own and completed them before the final season premiered.
The premiere was fantastic and full of drama. It is hard for the viewer to pay attention, however, because there is a ton of information being thrown out that the viewer must pay attention to and be aware of everything that is happening. In the previous seasons, Oceanic Flight 815 was heading from Australia to California and crashed on an island where the survivors had to learn how to live on the island alone. Soon after, they realized they were not the only ones on the island. People known as "The Others" lived there and claimed they were the owners of the island. There are several intricate details to truly understand what goes on in the plot, and there is no way to explain everything that has happened. The premiere is a continuation of season 5, and in season 5, the island went through several time warps into different time periods. John Locke, a main character, wanted to get in touch with Jacob who was the leader of the island. In the finale of season 5, Ben, a significant character, ended up killing Jacob. Jack Shepherd, who was in a different time period, wanted to explode the island so Oceanic Flight 815 would land safely in California and not crash on the island. The premiere of season six expanded on these trials, but the viewer does not know for sure what the season is going to be about.

I've never watched this show but I always wondered why my mom watched it. I thought it was one of the strangest shows ever. She told me that it makes you really think and leaves you at the end questioning what is going to happen. Do you know why this is the last season of Lost?
