I’m a big fan of Lost. Since the awesomely gripping pilot episode, I’ve given myself over to the mysteries of the island, putting my faith in the showrunning science of producers Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindeloff for a satisfying and entertaining conclusion to the series with next year’s Season 6. (See what I did there [...]
