A Tale of Two Cities (not the Dickens version)
Wednesday, October 04, 2006

After the ridiculously long diatribe I posted yesterday about the second season finale of Lost, I left little doubt as to how I feel about the show.
And in a stunning move that blatantly defied typical behaviour for highly anticipated events, tonight's third season premiere was not as good as I had hoped it would be.
It was much, much better.
I have said it before but I have to reiterate how lucky I feel that fans of science fiction (or indeed, just good dramatic television) are to be on the receiving end of programming no longer made for the lowest common denominator. Established shows like Lost and Battlestar Galactica, and the new Heroes all demonstrate that producers have caught on that fans of episodic, complicated serial television can be sated while still making money for their parent companies. I would go so far as to say that they finally figured out that this is where the real money is.
I know I'm hooked.
Check out this post for a recap of the show.
Now its off to the message boards for the next few hours. What's that address again? Fetish:Footage:Forum? Oops, wrong online phenom. Gotta love that William Gibson.
