Morning Commute: Lost

I have to say I'm pretty giddy with excitement over tonight's season four premiere of "Lost."  Its been a really long time since last season's jaw dropping season finale and I've been anxious to see, not only what happens to the characters but also, how the narrative/storytelling style changes. Once the announcement came out that they had a set end date, I knew it was in good hands.

I tried to make the grummings catch up on the show by watching the season 3 DVDs with me. I had already made her watch season 2, much to her dissatisfaction. I promised that season 3 was much better, particularly after episode 6. Needless to say, she did not agree and she quit after 10 episodes. With no other new TV on (save a few episodes of House) and an empty DVR, it did serve as pretty good hangover entertainment.

That's the strength of TV shows on DVD. They are 22/42 minutes of candy. You can watch an entire disc of Seinfeld in the time it would take to watch one Paul Thomas Anderson movie.
