LOST has ruined me!

I had never seen an episode until ABC put them all online last January. I'd been curious to see it, but wasn't sure if I'd like it. As it turned out, I finished all 3 seasons in time for the S4 premiere.:D

But since then I've experienced, er, side effects, if you will. Namely, I don't get nearly as much enjoyment out of the other shows I watch. The mystery in this season's "Desperate Housewives" greatly intrigued me at the start of this season; since I started watching LOST, I've hardly cared. Even "Law & Order," still one of my favorite shows, doesn't interest me nearly as much as it used to. I could go on, but the point is, this insane show has so totally raised my standards that I just can't get into most shows very much anymore.

Anyone else have this "problem"?

PS. I'm not really complaining...;-)

Hahaha... that's so funny. I'm not going to start watching that show because I'm afraid I'll never get anything done! If you ever want to email me or facebook message me about one of my posts, feel free to do so. I'd love to chat with you about it, and seeing as we're so far away, that might be the fastest way!
Hope summer is going well for you!

I have one offline friend who watches the show and she doesn't like to discuss it much because she considers even a theory to be spoilerish. So, the only chitchat I get about the show is from online communities.

I don't think any show has had this kind of following, including 24. Perhaps StarGate SG1. - But maybe I'm biased because SG1 is one of my favorites too!

I caught an episode here and there in season one, started taping it when they reran it over the summer, but unfortunately was interrupted by Katrina. I picked it up again in the second season and haven't missed an episode since.
