Each episode of Lost is really only 40 minutes long with 20 minutes of commercials, so I thought it would be cool if we all got on the forum during commercials for a few minutes to talk about what might happen next in each episode, especially if you have a computer by the television. My friends and I used to do this on another forum last season, and it really adds to the greatness that is Lost. So if someone higher up on this forum wants to take this idea and make it official, that would be awesome! If anyone has any comments please feel free to post.

This would be a good idea but I don't have a computer where I watch Lost so I'll have to miss out. It sounds fun though.

Sounds like fun. I was on through the entire season premire. We had a thread going somewhere discussing what was happening. I am up for it!

Great, hopefully a mod/admin will post an announcement if they like the idea enough to make it official.

With all the pausing, rewinding, zooming in, and talking it takes my wife and I 2 hours to watch the show. I love Tivo.

lol, i have Tivo too, but I just watch it all at once and then later closely inspect it

Anyways, should I create a new thread for this or should we use the general discussion?

I've done this before while watching other things, it's a lot of fun! You get everyone's immediate reactions!

hmm, so I guess I'll start a new thread and then after it's done people can go to the official one.

we do this for sports. We have an offical Red Sox game thread where we talk about the game when it's being played. It really makes it fun. For Lost it might also make it easier to watch, people could and see someting some one might have missed.

I would definitely do this if I had cable in my room... but I don't. ABC is a very fuzzy channel on the TV here in my room. :(
