Yeah, so I am nuts and got the second season of Lost (iTMS link) from iTunes. This is good stuff. Added it to Tivo, too. (and yes, this means that in the last 48 hours or so, I’ve watched about 18 hours of Lost. Really. (Well, listened to is more like it since I’ve been doing wedding planning and work at the same time…, but still)

I’m watching the first season of Lost on my computer and I have to say, I’m now up to 3 hours straight where I’ve only been watching instead of working and watching. This is way better than I thought. I think part of it works because the cast is big. Each episode can focus on a different back story for a different character. The writing is pretty good, too.

This is the first thing I’ve really watched from iTunes (well, except for the Lazy Sunday (iTMS link)). Gotta say, the quality is pretty good, better than I expected. It’s watchable, even at double size. The full screen presentation stinks, but that’s not surprising, honestly. I’m curious whether Front Row does anything “smarter” with the video to get a sharper full screen picture. Otherwise, on my 20″ it’s pretty much unwatchable. Of course, Evangeline Lilly would probably look as good regardless of the video quality.
