Is LOST the greatest television series of all times?


Thoughts?

Since to me, "all times" connotes something both in the past and in the still to
transpire future, I can't agree.

There are bound to be better shows in the future of endless time, perhaps before
the end of television occurs. There is still hope. There is always hope.

To say that there will never be another TV show at least as good as or better
than 'Lost' is too fatalistic.

... too fatalistic.
Fatalistic?
Invigorating!

Many shows (current, recent, old, and even some very old shows) have lifelong fans who consider their faves to be the best of all time forever and ever in eternal perpetuity.

But only one show really and truly is the best ever forever, as a point of purely objective actual fact.

And we know which show that is.

So far for me, it is my favorite non sitcom of all time. I would have The Honeymooners, Sanford and Son, and Seinfeld ahead of it if you include all tv shows. With that said I have not yet seen The Wire and I am currently on season 2 of Breaking Bad. It is an awesome show, but I'll go days in between watching discs. When I was watching Lost on Netflix I watched at least a disc a day.

Yes!

Life's simple, you make choices and don't look back!

No way because it has the worst ending of any series. So many big questions unanswered, the side step does not excuse not dealing with the mysteries and questions raised throughout the whole series.

Anyone who still has faith in humanity has never been to the imdb boards.

Shut up talking spaceship! I'm trying to watch my favorite sci-fi show.

For me yes. It was the greatest television show ever. There is no other show like LOST. There is no other show that made me fell what I felt when watching LOST.

No Raylan, I'm gonna bet my life on you being the only friend I have left in this world.

reply

IMO, Yes. That is all.

Not to worry.
Those were just my off-topic posts about Car 54
and Nikita Khruschev and Idlewild Airport and all that.

There is nothing else like LOST.

Lost is beautiful/pure/epic.
