How many reruns and recaps can they hand us and expect us to think it's new material? More substance less fluff.

what are you on about,
whats wrong with a recap when LOST hasn't been on in 3 months,
not everybody has episodes tivo'd or taped,
a recap can refresh the mind...
have it ready to be blown away by a brand new ep straight after it,

:biggrin:

Its also helps to get new recruits on board I think. I've helped to convert two people to LOST and it takes effort and time to get them caught up. The recaps are for those people interested but not completely sold on the idea yet. Plus its fun to reminise.:)

The first show I watched was the recap episode during Season 1, and that got me hooked and I'm still watching....so they're definitely doing the right thing!

Plus...I cannot recall the last time I saw a re-run...last year? We have a full run ahead with no repeats at all. Going to make for compelling TV with no interuptions.

Yeah it totally helped me jog my memory.

I always watch the recaps closely.
The scenes are picked by Cuse, Lindelof, etc. and NOT by ABC.

So the recaps tell us what THEY think is important to know/remember.

The Survivor Guide gave us approx 42 minutes of visuals. That's not much out of 2.5 seasons. Every scene they showed is important - some for obvious reasons, but a few make you go ....hmmm.

only 2 i've converted atleast 9 or so it does take effort but the effort is worth it unless you want another arrested development scenario. Possibly the best half hour comedy in the history of television, fox is run buy a moron, oh and the marketing department need some help too.

R.I.P arrested development we are better for having watched you
