“Lately, I have been dubbing my LOST-watching friends “honorary original watchers.” To them, this is the ultimate compliment. Based on the opinions of my friends, “original watchers” top the hierarchy of television viewers. We are intelligent, aware of every happenstance, and our opinions are superior. When my friends have a theory and I dispute it, more times than not they will concede to what I believe—that is the power I hold above them simply because I have tuned in since the very start. It truly made me realize how rare of a bread original watchers are! And that is something I will always brag about. Not only does an original watcher signify everything I stated above, but it also exemplifies patience and good taste. To stick through a show so obsessively, even when it was the taboo thing to do (ahem, yes I point to you, majority of season 3) shows true loyalty—something not many shows can boast about their fan base.”
