Lost Fans More Annoying Than Ever

Final Season Of 'Lost' Promises To Make Fans More Annoying Than Ever
From the Onion News Network: "Producers say the last season of Lost will contain an unprecedented number of twists and turns for fans to endlessly debate around people who don't care at all."

Of course, I kid. Why one of my best friends makes a living being an annoying Lost fan. And this is hardly the blog to call someone out about their pop culture obsessions. Tuesday, February 2nd 8pmET. Just sayin'.

I guess that's because he's not as amusingly abrasive as Joe Mathlete's Marmaduke Explained.

If the show in question is Star Trek, The X-Files or Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the answer is certainly yes. But what if we're talking about Sex and the City?
