If only I had the Lost DVD Boxset...

[LittleDaniel]

I might've been really picky, but it annoyed me when

they introduced this guy an episode before in Jack's flashback, and then OH MAH GAWD IT'S HIM IN THE CONTAINER. It would've been one thing if they had set him up a bit more, maybe introduced him near the end of the first season, but it just felt like it was supposed to be too much of a "moment" that was really just a let down. Couldn't watch after that.

They didn't have any real idea where they were going and the show's plot had very little consistency

[Ruki]

Shut up

I voted FIrefly, LOST, Scrubs (I'm the only one~!), Chuck, and The Wire.

Also wouldn't mind Game Of Thrones or Heroes. I loved Heroes.

[Pizza]

The only 2 shows on the list I've heard of that I have no interest in watching are True Blood and Enterprise. My only issues were there are shows that I've already rewatched like a week ago. I'll still watch them, but I watched Arrested Development and Community Season 1's earlier this year, and it looks like at least one of them will win.

I voted Firefly, Friday Night Lights, Studio 60, The Wire, and Curb.

I just watched all episodes of Community this past month, so I don't see myself doing that again so soon regardless of how great that show is.

LOST was a show I just got incredibly invested in. I couldn't possibly recreate the experience for everyone that I had with that show, because it was very a much "you had to be there" thing, with the community, the mystery, and the general aura it created. On the flip side, even without all that, it was still pretty much always the best show on TV barring season three when they were forced to stretch out stories during contract negotiations, and a few random episodes here and there.

The final episode literally caused me to wander around for the whole next day not knowing what to do with myself, I was that invested that I felt like a massive part of my life was over. Yes, I know that's tremendously sad.

I did the same thing... so I rewatched the first 5 seasons (would've watched 6 too had I had the DVD at the time).

[Benji]

I promised myself I wouldn't watch it again until the DVDs came out, so I could let it all sink in. Horrible times

[Your Mom]

I just spent way too much money even though they were on sale to pick up the lost blu ray set so lets watch it! I would like to watch Justified too. It's coming up on my Netflix (Y)

[Benji]

Ah fuck it. New Years Day, we're going to start a LOST watch outside of this thread, unless it makes a jump for number one slot.

[Pizza]

I might change one of my no hope votes to Lost if it has a chance to beat Arrested Development. And I could handle three shows, so I'll totally join that rewatch thread too.

[Matt]

I'm totally up for that.

[C-MIL]

Which of these shows is the best one? I haven't seen any of them and I'd like to get in on one of these, but there's no way I'll be watching them all...

[Benji]

Personally I prefer Firefly, it's funny, it's just one season to watch, and it's probably one of the best shows for characters and their interaction that's been on TV in my honest estimation. Both shows are great, but I would pick Firefly every time because I adore the characters.

[LittleDaniel]

And I'd chose Arrested Development because it's the best modern comedy and so on and so forth.

[C-MIL]

Tiebreaker?

[LittleDaniel]

Would you rather watch a space western or a comedy?

[Benji]

Firefly is all of the above!

[Pizza]

Tiebreaker?

I've not watched Firefly yet, but it's by Joss Whedon, the same guy who did Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I assume Firefly is similar in tone. For some people that's a good thing, for others that's a bad thing.

[C-MIL]

Arrested Development it is.
