Lost Untangled 5×05
ABC made another episode of Lost Untangled:
I think this episode has a few funny moments, but I don’t find it nearly as funny as I did last week’s.
It starts off in exactly the same way, which seems too repetitive for a series that is only on its second episode. Plus the novelty of the concept itself may already be starting to wear thin. And ABC’s not giving a credit to the Fine Brothers, the original creators of action-figure videos spoofing LOST, also took off some of the luster.
What do you think? Funny or not?

It’s funny, it get’s the point across… what’s the big deal?
All ABC is doing is trying to help viewers understand the show. I’m a huge fan and I like this stuff.
The Fine Bros. stuff is completely different. Yes, it’s funny as hell, but their stuff only exists b/c of the characters that were created by Lost and the tons of other creators of all the other figures they use.
Maybe JJ Abrams should get pissed at the Fine Bros! But he doesn’t b/c it’s flattering. The Bros are saying all the right things and I’m sure they will end up getting somewhere b/c of this. Good for them.
This is all just ridiculous. And I love that some people are saying they should sue ABC. Are you kidding? Who has the rights to the figures? I’m sure the Fine Bros didn’t call up ABC and ask permission.
Be happy you’re getting noticed and enjoy it.
