little bitty girl

It feels like everyone on my team is addicted to this show. I remember that when it first came out, Stef and I were watching a lot of TV, so we made a point not to start watching a new series. Regardless, every so often in the past 4 seasons, I would occasionally watch one or two episodes and think,"Man! This show is SO fucked!"

I am ashamed to say, I still succumb to peer pressure from time to time and the girls decided it was time that I got into the loop. So for the past couple of weekends, I've been plowing through the DVDs. I am telling you (for you lucky US people who have TiVO, although I just found out that we now have it too) that THIS is the way to watch a show.

I don't have the time or attention span to sit through TV advertising lately. Most of them are so inane anyway. I like just being able to watch a show in its entirety with no interruptions.

I must say that I am really digging the show and so far my favourite characters are Hurley, Sawyer and Sayid (we just started season 2...I am guessing characters change over time).

The thing I keep bringing up is why does everyone look so good all the time? I mean, they were in a plane crash for Pete's sakes. They really need to stop putting so much make up on, especially on Kate. I know they have their luggage but who really has the time to put that much lip gloss on a deserted island where random things are trying to kill you? Ditto with the wardrobe changes. And Hurley? Why is he still SO big? I watch "Survivor" and I know if you're being physical and not eating carbs, you become the size of a twig.

Stefan tells me I have to stop telling him these same things after every episode. But secretly, you know you're thinking the same thing I am too.
