Lost
I can't find an education story that inspires me to write, so I thought I would just mention that the title of the television show Lost appropriately describes how I feel when I watch it -- particularly during last night's season finale. Jonathan Storm of the Philadelphia Inquirer gets it right:
"It's not hard to imagine two or three consecutive subpar episodes dissolving the throng that has put it into America's top 15 TV shows and made it an international phenomenon," Storm wrote.
It's no secret that Disney executives hated Lost when it was pitched to them. According to a Wall Street Journal story, it "kindled bad memories of Twin Peaks," which was a huge cult hit that "devolved into an incoherent mess."
Dancing dwarves, anyone?
Just the like British cult series The Prisoner.
