I’m in season three, but my understanding is that there’s a TON of disappointment with the last (sixth) season. Ah, you’ve reached Season 3 of Lost. I was thinking that “Who would actually recommend Lost?”, but I was fan until then. Stop at end of that season, it is seriously not worth it. And watch the other great JJ Abrams series, Fringe. Much. MUCH better. Alias was good, but hokum, how many secret spy lairs were built on top of discos, allowing Jennifer Garner to put on a slinky dress and a wig to break into them? ---

Never having watched it before, I just started binging on **West Wing**. And rewatching **Keeping Up Appearances**. I can only watch a few episodes of KuA at a time, though; I want to reach through the monitor screen and slap Hyacinth. ---
