i'm a huge fan now. took me till season 2 to really get into it, and by the second half of that season i couldn't miss an episode. seems so long ago now, the mysteries with the hatch, the others, the mist, all those storylines. man.
then i think series 3 lifted a notch again. the production values are fantastic, the characters keep getting flushed out further, and the evolving storyline is gripping beyond anything i imagined. the finale of season 3 is a perfect example of why i love the show so much - fantastic!
i love the fact that ther are no sacred cows too - any of the characters, main or supporting could go at any time...
now we're halfway through series 4, and i have to wait for 5 weeks till the second part, damn!
the writers srike means this series is going to lose 3 or 4 episodes, so double damn!!
for anyone worried about where the show's going, or whether it's being bled as a cash cow, don't. there is an offical end date for the show - 2010. seems like a long way, but that's only 2 seasons after this one, and the evolving mysteries and plotline will need at least that long to do them justice.
can't really say too much more here withour giving away spoilers for people not into season 4, but i'll definitely say keep watching, it just keeps getting better!!
