Lost Review

Everytime you think you have it figured out what kind of genre this show is it changes.  I wasn't too into this show for the first few episodes; I thought it was just people marooned on an island---how will they survive, get along and be rescued at the end of the series.  But it turns out it is science fiction, but the best kind----the "physics" makes sense, there's a morality tale, there's character development, humor, "easter eggs" etc.  It a show that I wanted them to show a repeat of the following week before showing a new one, just to make sure I didn't miss any clue.  BUT IT IS DEFINITELY A SERIES THAT HAS TO BE SEEN IN ORDER FROM THE BEGINNING.
