David Kronke was appointed Mayor of Television after a bloodless coup in 2000. Since then, he has improved infrastructure, championed greater educational opportunities and fought for reforms that have utterly erased corruption and incompetence from the television industry. Since Mr. Kronke has ascended to power, Television is a far better place. Is all hope "Lost?"
It’s all well and good that “Lost’s� brain trust is going to offer another recap episode Wednesday night before the second half of the show’s third season – boy, everything is complicated with this show – premieres at 10 p.m. But, as I suggested in my weekly (more or less) fireside chat with the People of Television via podcast, ABC could do worse than to provide some sort of weekly or semi-regular recap episode – exploring certain aspects of the sundry “Lost� mysteries that the writers may have forgotten about, but the rabid fans certainly haven’t.
Keenly and perceptively, I argue that even “Lost� recap shows would do better ratingswise than, say, “What About Brian,� the network’s sitcoms, “Men in Trees� or anything on Friday night. And they just might help lure fans who have abandoned the show back into the fold.
Of course, I don’t think anyone could explain what “Lost’s� writers are thinking better than this short film – even their mascot mutt gets a vote, pulling Post-Its containing plot points off the wall.
As for tomorrow night, Juliet's (Elizabeth Mitchell) past gets plenty murky, as does her present-day situation. And somewhere in between, she mans up.
