i watched the first 2 series i think, it got really tedious; there were too many loose ends they insisted on unraveling further and further, up to point where i didn't even care whether they all died or not.

I stopped watching during the 2nd season too because it got really tedious, but recently I started watching again and it was so good that I caught up on all the missed episodes. The third season was awesome and the 4th is even better! The pace has really picked up and they have actually answered a lot of questions recently - of course, they still have a lot of new, unanswered questions, but they are better about pacing now. It is much more satisfying to watch now.

I heard someone summarize the structure of Lost like this: "In the first few minutes something big happens that advances the thematic, or arc plot elements of the show (survivors vs. others). The next 30 minutes are filled with flashbacks (or flash-forwards) and melodramatic romantic tensions, personal crises, etc. The last few minutes returns to big events and introduces a new mystery (Who is that guy? Is he good? Why isn't he dead? ), which is answered slowly in the first five minutes and last five minutes of subsequent shows." So if you know what to expect, you won't get frustrated.

Although I have to say they have become better about revealing helpful information during the middle section of the show now, which is why it is better than ever!
