Waves,

I became aware of how fanatical I was about that show. It was so distracting. Thank goodness at least one season was shortened due to the the strike.
I was reliving some of that time when I was thinking about the show. I took a break
and. . . truth be told . . . . my tv station that was running Lost all week last week is not running it at all this week or next week.
Parts of some episodes are clear in my mind -- like the scene with Ana Lucia and Shannon and Sayid of course but some of the Claire / Charlie bits did not register with my mind as much. I kind of tuned out whenever Sun was around.
But with Sawyer, I long remembered the things he said.
Most of the episodes I saw two and three times because I saw them in repeats. I found Libby mysterious and liked her.

Here is something different about your viewing experience that is neat.
At season 2 episode 11 the events of the show are at 56 days.
That means that this is less than two months since the plane crash.
I started watching Sept 2004 so Season 2 episode 11 was about Jan / Feb 2006 for me -- almost 1 1/2 years to cover 56 days.

I did spend time thinking about how those folks ended up on the island and why. I felt that most of them were there for a reason and in some cases their reason for being on the island was finished earlier than it was for other people who had to keep on.
