It could be a huge hit on college campuses, but FOX, as usual, didn't really promote it that well. Here's hoping it gets a second run.~CW~https://www.blogger.com/profile/05783090269311313463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-1145066258250269422006-04-14T21:57:00.000-04:002006-04-14T21:57:00.000-04:00Not really, velvetcannibal.

Yeah, Fox auditioned it after Idol, where I think it did roughly the same as Free Ride and Unan1mous in the same slot, but then they dumped it in the Thursday 8:30 slot, while Unan1mous got to stay after Idol and Free Ride (which I don't like nearly as much) got paired with Family Guy and will probably be back next year.Alan Sepinwallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03388147774725646742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-1145066040685668232006-04-14T21:54:00.000-04:002006-04-14T21:54:00.000-04:00I only caught bits and pieces of The Loop.

I did like what I saw, and it sucks to see something with this much potential get tossed.

While Jack and Kate get caught in a Return of the Jedi net and give off no sexual chemistry with traction to having a relationship? and there's no accounting for what any of these people do all day. At this point I wish they would focus on the smoke monster and crap because maybe they would have some forward momentum.<BR/><BR/>What does this show look like in Season 3?

If the show focused a little more on the characters and the reality of island living and less on smoke monsters and black-light diagrams, it might not be as popular as it is right now, but it also might not be as annoying.Alan Sepinwallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03388147774725646742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-1145045185906397072006-04-14T16:06:00.000-04:002006-04-14T16:06:00.000-04:00Alan - forget what the other anonymous says. i ano...Alan - forget what the other anonymous says. i anonymously say you're handsome. though i do agree the oc was good. but my question to you handsome alan: how can lost be this bad? and how can people watch anymore? its so bad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-1145042790436093442006-04-14T15:26:00.000-04:002006-04-14T15:26:00.000-04:00You're much too kind, anonymous.
