6 series. Some good. Some a bit dull. Some fantastic episodes. Some not so good. But no one can deny it is compelling viewing (once you are hooked) and the series has gone on to be one of the most popular on any channel anywhere (porbably everywhere) in the world. A huge moneyspinner for everyone involved.So can some explain then, why, after 6 series, they still haven`t managed to fix the graphical glitch on the underside of the letter "S" of the Lost title when it floats towards the camera at the start of each episode? Just as it is about to disappear out of frame the edge of the 3D bevel just breaks up a little bit. Why? It`s so amateurish? There are millions of people around the world, a sizable percentage of whom are probably under the age of 10, who could produce the exact same floaty logo but without the error we`ve put up with for the last 6 years.I`m sure somewhere that some rabid Lost fanboy has writen an entire website dedicated to the graphical glitch and its meaning in relation to the show ("it represents the breakdown op an enclosed society. Also it is the Smoke monster`s mother." and other such crap). I just think it looks cheap and crap. Dr Who - now that`s how to do a good title sequence!And Lost series 6 itself? The first 2 epsiodes are a great opening, with lots of new stuff going on. And I really did notice, during some of the slower, more thoughtful bits, just how emotional it all is. They`ve done a really good job of getting you to care for the characters by giving them various interesting backstories over the preceeding episodes (Although people often moan that the flashbacks were slow and dull and didn`t particularly relate to the main plot, I think they woulld be missed as they are so helpful now in giving the characters something to fight for and helping the audience be sympatheritc towards them).
