The Ridiculous is (always) Also Sublime


The Doctor has spent the summer watching past episodes of "Lost" on the (streaming) computer. He missed or rather ignored them as they were aired on ABC the last five years.
He is nearing Season 5 finale and will be caught up and ready to watch the final season during its' regular time slot this winter.
The story that has unfolded is at the same time absolutely ridiculous and a fine piece of video art.
The story is fascinating, the acting is superb, and it is in total: extremely well crafted. However, the numerous twists and turns are so ridiculous that the Doctor advises removing your Ridiculometers from the vicinity of your televisions, as the registrations will surely bend its' needle and thus make it inoperable. (Remember: Bent needles are not covered under the extensive warrenty.)
