Yes. But take a break between episodes to digest and speculate.

Lost and deadwood are big yes! To me

I also see you mentioned the Americans as well, and hell yes to that.

Man lost is so much better than the Americans so are all the other shows on this list. The Americans is the low bar of good tv. See you down below.

I think you would love Lost.There are a lot of mysteries and deaths of characters in the show.

Lost is like a really great ride that leads nowhere. No loose end has been tied, and the ending is more than disappointing. It's extremely lazy writing. Shame on them.

Don’t worry about it haha

I'd recommend Fringe instead

My bad I didn't realize that was a big spoiler, had I known about that myself I probably wouldn't have even started watching it. It totally ruined the show for me, so I wanted OP to be informed of this.

Just assume that you will get very disappointed with the ending. This will reduce the disappointment with the ending.

The ending itself perhaps isnt so bad, but if you were watching the show when it came out (you know: weekly discussions, speculations), you would get very disappointed -> the authors said that the show wouldnt end with a particular ending.. and then it had that particular ending.

Ending of season 1 and beginning of season 2 is very good TV. I also liked the season 5, despite the very disappointing ending.

Bruh

yes

Deadwood imo might be the GOAT over wire bb Sopranos, I think so highly of that show because it has no flaws.

Lost is in the next tier along with Mr Robot Justified Leftovers early GOT

So yes you should absolutely prioritize watching Lost and Deadwood.

lost is worth the watch, deadwood is worth re-watching

I think it’s probably better to binge and watch now then when the show aired because a lot of people’s issues surrounding it were due to the hype around it. Of which there was a lot. It was what Game of Thrones became in terms of the amount of discourse it created. People, including me, feel let down by the show because it turned out not to be the show we all thought it was going to be. I loved the show but still feel deeply ambivalent about it but that’s because I went deep down the rabbit hole with it. I don’t think that will be a problem if you watch it now. It is a great show and a really, really fun ride

Also the show launched the whole meme about the ending “sticking the landing” and subsequent discussions of whether or not a show should be defined by it’s ending. I think the show still leaves a bitter enough taste that people don’t give it the credit or respect that it deserves.

Imo.. if you have a DVR or some other device with fast forward, then yes it’s worth watching ,,however, more than 50% of the show is showing all the characters in their previous lives working in the office and doing other shit like that ,which I fast forward through,

I just watched lost for the first time last year and didnt really like it. I feel like a lot of what made lost great was the mysteries and the discussion around them when it first aired, with all the theories, etc. Binging it took a lot of that away as i didnt have to wait for a new episode or season to come out, just clicked next episode to see what happens.

I also felt like a lot of the mysteries werent resolved either at all or in a way that made any sense.

With it being 100+ episodes, id personally skip it and watch something else

Definitely. Despite the ending which is considered to be not so good it’s still one of the best tv shows ever.

How far did you get? I’m starting the pilot now

Omg I turned it off last night, I lost interest too

It’s really good. Check out the first season at least and if that doesn’t get you hooked then the rest of the show probably won’t be for you but based off what you’ve said in comments I doubt that would be the case.

The writers generally knew where the story was going from the beginning, there was an issue with the network not granting them an end date until mid way through season 3 but after that they made arguably the two best seasons with 4 and 5. Not a big fan of season 6 as whole but I do think the series finale wrapped it up the best it could.

It's refreshing to not see the same folk at least

lost is absolutely worth watching, especially if you like the leftovers and are okay with mysteries not getting resolved.

when you’re binge watching you get less attached to the mysteries and more into the character journeys, which is where the show really excels. most backlash came from people who were watching the show over 6 years and invested a lot of time into figuring out the mysteries.

LOST and Deadwood are both a YES. Also throw Fringe in there if you haven't seen it yet. I may have liked Fringe more than LOST.
