Hooray! for Lost and what to do with the free time.

Terry O'Quinn won an Emmy for his role as John Locke on Lost. I personally am shocked that this is the first Emmy that Lost has won. It's the absolute best show on television. Well, when it is on television.

I've gotta tell ya. The producers of that show have some major nerve expecting us stick around and wait 8 or 9 months to see what happens next. I mean what are we suppose to do in the meantime?

Lost-related stuff to do to make the most of your time while waiting for Lost to come back:

1. Learn the lyrics and music to "You all Everybody" by DriveShaft.
2. Play the numbers 4-8-15-16-23-42 in the lottery.
3. Read Bad Twin.
4. Make a mix tape of all the songs that have been featured on the show.
5. Read Stephen King's The Stand which was featured in The Other's book club.
6. Plan a Lostie's dinner party only using what they have available on the island.
7. Set an alarm to go off every 108 minutes.
8. Memorize the seating chart for flight 815.
9. Go "Downtown" & "Make your own kind of music"
   
10. Learn to say "I love you" in Korean.
11. Learn how to catch fish in a net.
12. Locate the hometown of each Lostie on a frappr.
13. Learn to make a baby carriage with just a large knife and vines.
14. Build a raft.
15. Watch the previous seasons including all the behind the scenes stuff.

Anyways, that should be enough to get you through the slump. If nothing else watch Grey's or Heroes. Hope that helps. See ya soon!

Lost Again?

First of all let me say OH MY GOSH! Major ***spoiler*** if you didn't see Lost last night.

That was one heck of an episode! My favorite character is poor Hurley. Favorite quote from last night: "Yeah, I love you too. Whatever."

I was bawling as Charlie cowboyed up and went off to die. I thought the exchange between him and Claire was lovely.

I don't like Juliette. I think she's gonna sell them up the river. I'm still not sure what's up with Jack. He's not the same since his week with the others. He's always been a nice guy but I just don't trust him anymore. Sorry.

I've read that the girls that Charlie saved in the alley was Sayid's lady. And that one of the ladies in the Looking Glass was Ben's childhood friend. It's so weird the way they crossed paths.

I heard somewhere that TV Guide predicted that there would be 5 major deaths before the end of this season. Here's my prediction for the red shirts:

1. Bernard
2. Rose
3. Juliette
4. Desmond
5. John Locke(I still don't believe he's dead).

So sad. . .Anyways. I cannot wait till next week. What will we do all summer? I think I might freak out from withdrawal. Usually when that happens I cope by watching the 4400. It's usually on during the summer.

Shows I'm gonna miss this summer:

1. Lost
2. Grey's Anatomy
3. American Idol
4. Heroes

I'm sure we'll find something else to watch but those are the best right now. Maybe I'll get a life. lol.

My tv favorites

I don't think I've blogged about my obsession with Lost or Grey's Anatomy. So here goes.

I LOVE Lost. I've been hooked since the beginning. I've never missed an episode and I've been known to watch re-runs and re-re-runs. I've checked out all the sites. I go to sleep every Wednesday night wondering how it's all gonna play out.

I am sure that years from now I'll still think about how Walt appeared in the woods and how Mr. Ecko was killed by a giant puff of black smoke. As much as I love it I also am afraid of it. It comes on less than 2 hours before I go to bed. So I lay there thinking about it and it kind of freaks me out. I mean it's quite a ride! You are on the edge of your seat the whole show and then "bam" it's over. But it's never really over. You leave with more questions than answers. It's crazy and I love it. period.

Now Grey's is different. I love it and I watch it. But if I miss it, I miss it. I'll catch it online. I love the narration. And the characters are rich and pretty well developed. I wonder if it's possible to have such a great show with all the twists and turns and not have so much sex. I mean it's like the only way people in Seattle can interact is to end up in bed. I think it's the rain. (No offense to those who really live in Seattle. I love rain. And I've heard the coffee is the best. Not that I like coffee.)

Anyways, the point is the show is great but I think it's a guilty pleasure for me. In that, I feel guilty at seeing so much pleasure.

Another of my favs is Desperate Housewives. Another very guilty pleasure. I can't say that I've seen every episode or visited the message boards. But I know that every Sunday night I can turn on ABC and expect to see lots of scandal. Cause I really don't have much scandal in my life. Thank you, God!

The housewives crack me up. And the narrator is awesome. Her name is Brenda Strong and she use to be on my favorite show Everwood. sigh. I miss it so much. Which brings me to the following memorium for cancelled shows that I loved and that have passed on:

(No particular order, except the first which is the most awesome sitcom of all time.)

1. NewsRadio(poor Phil)
   
2. Frasier
3. Everwood
4. Wings(It was funny)
   
5. The Cosby show
6. Moonlighting
   
7. Cheers
8. The Wonder Years
9. Space Above and Beyond(For my husband)
10. Star Trek Enterprise
11. Hidden Hills(where the heck did it go? It was a decent show.)

To be continued when I recall others. . .
