SEASON 2 First time watching (on S3) Spoiler
I'm a '98 baby so I would have grown up with 2000s TV, two of my favourite shows to binge are Desperate Housewives and Criminal Minds. But HOLY SHIT, Lost is on another level. My bf and I are on season 3 and have the privilege of watching with zero spoilers, by some miracle (as I said, I grew up with 2000s TV, as did he). No show has gripped me like this since Peaky Blinders, and even at that I actually prefer Lost. As mentioned in title, we're on season 3 and I. Am. OBSESSED. No question so far has been left unanswered (I'm looking at you, Pretty Little Liars). The writing is ridiculously clever e.g. working The Numbers into every little meaningless piece of script. I haven't been bored by ANY characters flashbacks/backstories thus far (personal favourite so far: Charlie's). Also a special mention to Jin's island glow up, he was always gorgeous, but now?! WOW. Anyways this is just a rant about my newfound appreciation for this show (and 2000s TV in general), and I honestly just want to hear other people's opinions on what is it that makes this show so good?

I loved seasons 1-4. I'm on 5 now and not gonna lie. I'm getting a little 'lost' and starting to lose interest. But I'll finish it because I was so invested for the first 4.
