LOST 6x01-02

I've been completely hooked on this show since about half way through the first season. I haven't missed seeing  a single episode live, and have gone so far as to work my schedule around it for the past five years. Today has been bitter-sweet for Lost fans everywhere. Tonight was the last time we will ever see a season premier. We will never again have to (get to) spend nine months speculating/debating on what the writers have in store for us next season. There are sixteen hours left to go, and if tonight's first two hours were any indicator, they're all going to be non-stop crazy awesome coolness.

I'll be reviewing every episode this season, immediately after they air, and I'll do my best to do so without any spoilers. In the event that spoilers are unavoidable, don't worry, I will give you fair notice. The first two episodes, LA X parts 1 & 2 were amongst the best hours in the shows history, and should help put to rest any of the theories that "the writer's are making this up as they go along." Answers were given while simultaneously, in typical Lost fashion, deepening the shows mysteries.

I'm not sure what else to write at the moment. If you haven't watched Lost for the past couple of seasons because you felt it was getting too convoluted, or you were straining your brain so hard trying to understand what was happening that it began leaking out of your ears , then get to updating your Netflix queues, or borrow the DVD sets from a friend and get caught up. This show has consistently been some of the greatest entertainment that TV has to offer, and you should be there to witness the end.
Hour 1: 5/5
Hour 2: 5/5
