Thank you for time-looping these episodes. I found them really enjoyable. Particularly the zeal with which Matt faithfully defended that Lost is “The greatest show of all time” and his perseverance with this position in spite of Ben’s irrefutable arguments to the copntrary. I also really enjoyed the contrast in your voices during the top 16 episodes countdown. Matt was so filled with giddiness and drama while Ben’s was so plainly ready for it to be over. Please do future episodes where you discuss topics where you fundamentally disagree.
PS: Greatest is objective. To deny this truth unleashes chaos upon us all.
Totally. Usually Matt just takes a non-confrontational approach, but not this time!
Matt, I too, thought that it was going to be dinosaurs (‘Land of the Lost’ was what came to my mind)
However, you are both wrong, the end of the show was stupid, contrived, and completely unsatisfying…enough to make the entire show (subjectively) terrible. If you left out the last two seasons, then Lost would be a great show.
