Lost the TV show.

If you haven't been watching, Lost is about a group of plane crash survivors, trying to figure out what to do on a island. The island is getting stranger and stranger as time goes by. Gilligan's Island it ain't.

Last week they crashed, found out that they are 1000 miles off course, so the rescuers are looking 1000 miles from where they are, and that there is some kind of huge beast (monster? ) on the island. We haven't seen the beast yet.

It's been interesting watching how the different people react to this disaster.

One girl refuses to do anything even eat because "They'll be here to get us any minute."

Another character, Jack, is an MD. He sort of has taken charge.

Then there's Kate, who in episode one sort became Jack's assistant, and whom it turns out is the prisoner of an injured Marshal, That's the guy with the hunk of airplane stuck into his stomach, we found that out at the end of episode 2.

Another interesting character is Hurley. Fat guy, long hair, passes out at the site of blood. Hurley is played by Jorge Garcia, who recently was seen on Becker..

Then there's the druggy, played by former Hobbit, Dominic Monaghan, here he is known as Charlie. This may get interesting. He was Merry for those like me who had trouble remembering which was which in LOTR movies.

Then comes Sayid, played by Naveen Andrews. Turns out he is a former Iraqi Soldier, who fought in Gulf War one.

The Japanese couple? What can you say about them?

On the second episode a group of the survivors treks across the Island to get to higher ground and try to use the radio to call for help. On the way across this TROPICAL Island they are attacked by a POLAR BEAR! Now that's freaky because Polar Bears don't live much south of the Artic circle.

I won't ruin the show for you any more. The entire 2 hour pilot, made up of the two first episodes is playing this Saturday. So watch it!

And that beast that nobody has seen yet. I think it's an invisible GodZilla. :)

Or maybe a Cave Troll from LOTR that got ahold of a Ring Of Invisibility.
