Is it bad that I schedule my life around Lost?

Any die-hard Lost fan probably understand this. But many of you also probably are in possession of the latest in tv technology., i.e. Tivo, On Demand.

I think those things ruin the excitement of watching a tv show live. Well, not live, but unrecorded. I like the anticipation, the challenge of making sure my kid is sleeping, the fact that I can't get up during commercials for anything - food, drink, relief - for fear I might miss a millisecond of action.

That's the way I feel about "The Joy of Painting."

Ok. Good. At least I know I'm not the only junkie.

We are the same way but still take advantage of the TiVo for this reason: We start recording at 10 p.m., but don't start watching around 10:20. you can fast forward through all the commercials from beginning to end. Seamless entertainment for the terminally impatient.

Now, WTF did Christian Shephard do with Claire? I'm loving this season.

KJ- This season has me on the edge of my seat. Every week, I'm like, these writers are f'in geniuses.

I guess we will find out soon how Claire "dies" - perhaps at the hand of Christian Shephard?

I wish I had started watching "Lost" when it went on the air! Bob Ross is kinda boring ...
