LOST GIRL SEASON 3 6 TV

Many previous story arcs like the whole Dharma Initiative are now seemingly trivial. There are too many unanswered questions that were raised over the last six seasons. Others, however, maybe wanted more of the Kate-Jack-Sawyer love mess. I would have like a more sci-fi-orientated theme. Of course each viewer probably wanted Lost to be a different show than it was. We now know for sure that the extensive backstories were there to simply justify JacobвЂ™s selections, but surely there had to be a better way to mix up it up a bit. Each episode was 20% island happenings, 40% backstory, and 40% commercials. But just when it was getting good, the trademark Lost tone would crescendo in and the story would jump from the island to watching Jack track down his dad in Australia. In between these random backstories is when the real action would take place. But the personal flashbacks only lasted one episode and we had to endure everyone elseвЂ™s backstories before it would cycle back around to a particular characterвЂ™s. We learned Kate was a killer, JackвЂ™s a dick, SawyerвЂ™s a lazy con man, and EkoвЂ™s a drug runner. But quickly it turned into a quasi-drama by showing these peopleвЂ™s crappy lives before they got on the plane. This was probably by design as both males and females got something out of it. Lost was an action drama in the beginning. Instead itвЂ™s a story about a glowing well that turns people into smoke monsters that for some reason will unleash all hell if itвЂ™s let off this mystical island. The writers could have created another Matrix. The writers could have created this rich and deep storyline that told the tale of good vs evil in a totally new way, complete with new symbols and analogies. Sci-fi/fantasy shows are all about mythology and science. Sci-fi shows are for nerds, only housewives watch dramas, women hate action shows, but yet Lost tried to appeal to all three demographics without fully committing to one. Lost never really fit into any genre and so missed a huge opportunity The result was something different but doesnвЂ™t relate to good storytelling.

They bucked nearly every traditional TV show guideline and created something that seemed on the surface as something totally different. Sometimes, like with the story of Walt, the arc would seem to be nicely wrapped up but then out of nowhere, it was clear that wasnвЂ™t the case.Д¬learly LostвЂ™s writers and creators were trying something new. Lost never wrapped up any story arc, instead left viewers hanging while distracting them something wildly off-topic.

Ideally one arc should be wrapping up while another is in full swing with the next one clearly on theВ horizon. The key to long-running TV shows areВ simultaneousВ story arcs. After all, the core business model of TV networks is to get viewers to watch the commercials and successful shows are generally dragged-out to con people into watching said ads. While IвЂ™m sure the writers knew the overall story arc from the beginning, they probably didnвЂ™t know how much fluff was needed to fill in seasons. But wait, heвЂ™s just another one of JacobвЂ™s pawns and the real bad guy is olвЂ™ Smokey who previously seemed like the islandвЂ™s janitor.Д¬ritical viewers have always questioned whether the end-game was known when the show started. Then we learned that the Dharma Initiative were really just nerdy hippies and Charles Whidmore took over as the bad guy by trying to kill everyone on the island. Then the Dharma Initiative and Ben took over that role as The Others switched sides. Remember the first two seasons? The barefooted Others were the baddies. HereвЂ™s theВ obligatory *Spoiler Warning* tag although there is no way youвЂ™ll be able to avoid Lost news next week so you might as well get over it now.

ItвЂ™s simply bad storytelling and so I submit to you the four reasons why Lost is actually a terrible TV show and not deserving of all the attention it got over the last six seasons. But still, I feel like there are too many loose ends that will not be answered tomorrow. At least the story is actually ending, rather than drifting along until the show is canceled because of bad ratings.
