Knowing about my love for character development and layers of meaning in story, friends of mine urged me for a long time to watch LOST. One friend in particular said it was right up my alley. If I had my own alley, yes – this indeed would be up it.

Tricia and I spent this last summer watching all 5 seasons of LOST, and Season 6 starts tonight. Too many demands have kept me from diving into the layers of meaning in LOST, but I intend to begin doing so, because I think they’re there. Jeff Jensen of EW.com began writing about the series back in Season 2, and I plan to start with his materials. His stuff on the parent-child set-up of LOST is definitely worth your time.

Look for LOST posts in the coming week. I’ll be watching tonight’s episode with Tricia, but I might try to tweet a bit as well.
