Video Collage: Catching You Up on “Lost”

Tomorrow – if you didn’t know because you are completely ignorant of the society around you – is the season premiere of the final season of “Lost”. Now, unlike myself who has watched this show religiously since day one, there are plenty of folks out there who have fallen from the show as it’s gotten more and more ridiculous. And while this is understandable – even I didn’t care about Jack’s fucking tattoos midway through season three – these last few years have included some of the greatest television I’ve ever seen, and this last season is sure to be an extremely satisfying and dramatic conclusion to the series. And if it isn’t, well, then we can all take solace in the fact that there will be plenty of riots.

In any case, if there’s anyone out there who really wants to watch the show tomorrow but feels a bit overwhelmed by the daunting task of catching up on a few seasons’ worth of material, luckily certain Great People of the Internet have provided us with various recaps of “Lost”, thus far.
