FYI, I did briefly watch 'Lost' purely because it was highly hyped on UK's
Channel 4 (which once had a good record for decent drama).

I have barely (never ?) seen such an utterly worthless US programme ever. It's
so detached from reality that I wonder if Americans have even the tiniest clue
about the world that exists around them.

I am definitely _NOT_ a fan of 'Lost'; but don't you suppose that you Brits
ought to take a little responsibility since you started it all with
'The Prisoner' (Patrick McGoohan).

'The Prisoner' was always clearly full-blown escapionist nonsense. Along with the
likes of The Avengers. Entertaining but not to be taken seriously ever.

Quite different.
