Perhaps I'm being a bit rough on Lost. I probably would have liked it better if I had watched enough to care about any of the characters. Then perhaps I might have been caught up in the continuing guessing game about each of them. Since I didn't care about any of them, I found this process annoying.
This scheme has become more common, I think. My wife watched the first two seasons of Heroes a couple of years ago and the set up was the same. It was entertaining the first year for me (I particularly liked the character Hiro) but this show, too, became too surreal. If it comes your way, you might keep an eye out for it, Harry.
