I think the people that try to make the next LOST aren't really trying to emulate the show or its story telling, more just the buzz it created. A scripted drama can't rely on buzz alone, and that's why I think a lot of them fail.

The Beginning of the End
So I see they're ended up just stealing episode titles from LOST as well.

New Writers
Get rid of Seth Meyers, he and his team of writers are running SNL into the ground. The one note jokes, the repetition of sketches, the WASTED POTENTIAL of hosts. It's gotten to the point now that you just expect the show to suck and hope for one or two alright sketches. Timberlake is a veteran at this…

So you write a piece called "Who cares about the royal wedding?"

Crossover
I was never really too big on Paltrow one way or the other-I liked her in Tennenbaums- but her recent turn on Glee and thinking she's some kind of pop star have totally turned me against her. That's not confined to Paltrow though, the only actors that have really impressed me with their singing chops are…
