LOST turns 10 years old. I still feel old.

LOST turns 10 years old. I still feel old.

Ok, too many anniversaries today. Friends turns 20 and Lost celebrates it 10 years anniversary. Really, this is too much for a Monday. I feel so old.

10 years ago, we all saw this

Seriously. That’s all it took for me to become obsessed.

Then came 6 years of not-so-patiently waiting for each new episode. 6 years of making our brains work extra time trying to figure out all the clues and mysteries. 6 years of religiously reading Lostpedia and all the fan theories. 6 years of trying to guess how the heck this show was going to end.

And then, the disappointment. I didn’t like how it ended. I hated it, actually. But I forgive them. I still love Lost for all that it meant and for the endless hours of conversations and theorizing. It was a phenomenon. And I’m so glad I was part of it. It was so much fun reading all the theories  and talking to people about each character and each story line.

Part of the appeal of Lost, was the obsession that it awoke on people.

80’s kid, 90’s teen. That sums it up quite nicely. Fan of almost everything. There’s not enough room in cyber-space to list everything (or every guy / fictional character I have the hots for), but I’ll try: Outlander book series ultimate fan (‘cuz JAMMF is just perfection), YA and romance novel avid reader, BSB fan to the death. Current TV Shows addiction: Outlander, Game of Thrones, Arrow (I ship Olicity. Hard.), The Big Bang Theory, Marvel Agents of SHIELD. Past addictions: Friends, Glee, Spartacus, Smash, The Tudors, Battlestar Galactica, Lost (I’m an ending-hater). The Hot List: Luke Evans, Gerard Butler, Theo James, Nick Carter, Henry Cavill, Chris Hemsworth, Stephen Amell, Hugh Jackman and I could keep going to infinity. Oh! And I believe in the God of Google!
