Lost is so damn complicated now - I see that Sky One has started showing special 'enhanced' (I'd have said annotated) versions - where they have pop-up notes at the bottom of the screen reminding us of previous episodes/happenings/plot points/ - characters - and on screen 'easter eggs'. It's actually pretty useful. I've learnt stuff I'd missed before.
Another random thought I've had - No one can deny that the new Doctor Who took a lot of 'Buffy' lessons - (for example how they changed the show's format to it's current one-single-story per show and having the longer season arcs where the last two to three episodes have the Doctor up against a 'big bad' - another key lesson they learnt was to have strong female characters with distinct home lives) only now with the upcoming 6th episode - it looks like they've gone for the whole hog and given themselves what looks like their very own super powered slayer-style character.
The Doctor's Daughter - hey? Don't suppose she's going to eventually turn out be Susan's mother from the first Doctor's era. Wouldn't that be something? But I guess an idea like that is going to be way too tricky and complicated to work in... mores the pity.
