No waiting! Instant gratification! We even got the little Roku wireless box so we can watch Netflix Instant right on the TV instead of on my laptop. Dangerousity.

I know, I've felt like the biggest freakshow for not having seen Lost but then started wearing it as a badge of pride. Until it was recently made available via both Hulu and Netflix Instant. Then I succumbed. And now I'm balls deep into season one! I can't look away. So yes, I would have to say it should make your list. But True Blood comes first! Hey Saleem!

I might be headed back to America soon, and I've been trying to make a list of media I need to intake that I've missed over the past 5 years. So, should "Lost" make my list? i.e. Is it necessary viewing now that viewing it isn't a big communal experience? I feel like you're in a unique position to help me out here, Ms. Distraction. -Saleem Hey yo,

I was able to tweet for a while there but haven't been able to for the last couple of hours. And twitpic hasn't worked all day. The whole thing is so irritating.
