TV Season: The End - Part Three

The final installment...

Lost (Season 3)

I hope it gets better from here. Much maligned for it's long storylines and confusing flashbacks and sub-plots, the producers did themselves some credit with the final episodes. But it started badly for them: with the first few episodes concentrating squarely on the captured trio, the rest of the characters took a back seat; but I guess it was necessary as the storyline went along. And at least more of the Island and the Others got revealed as well as the varied hidden agendas of the survivors. The final episode was quite intriguing as well: did they really get off the Island? It seems that way... I can't really comment much about the characters because I'm still confused, but I wonder where Walt and Michael ended up? But with Lost seem to continue for another four seasons at least, I'm sure they'll turn up sooner or later. Let's hope the writers make it less confusing for all of us...


30 Rock (Season 1)

It's rare to find a comedy that really makes you laugh these days. 30 Rock is different somehow...it is really funny, although it would be much funnier if you're an American. It's the deep humour, poking fun at the American way of life that makes this show special, not the usual slapstick comedy we see as normal fare nowadays. Alec Baldwin, Tina Fey and Tracy Morgan is hilarious, not to mention the supporting cast too. I just hope the magic continues...


The Suite Life of Zack and Cody (Season 2)
Hannah Montana (Season 1)

It's difficult to find family-orientated comedies these days...seems to have gone out of fashion. The only one I really liked was Malcolm In The Middle but even that seemed to peter out in the last two seasons. So we have Disney, banking on the success of Lizzie McGuire and Even Stevens, they came up with The Suite Life and Hannah Montana. Sigh...what a disappointment. The Suite Life was still funny in it's first season, but the comedy really falls flat this season. No more witty gems, only sparkles here and there. I think the writers are running out of comedic ideas. Hannah Montana too. I just hope it gets a bit better the next season. And the new one, Cory In The House...I don't even bother following it. Go, Kim Possible...
