Entertainment > TV Show Reviews TV show reviews: Lost: 2 of 24

Season One: Well I would like to tell you about the phenomenon that is "Lost". We saw the adverts on channel 4 for this, which were, I have to say intriguing but somewhat strange.

I first got introduced to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid via my mum, who loved this film and every time it came on the TV we would sit and watch it together.
