I think the only problem with going Sci-fi is if you dote on every word
from
the creators of the show.   The creators have made a lot of various claims
and if they go back on anything they say, some people will scream bloody
murder over it.   I just watch the show.  I don't go in for podcasts or
"The
Lost Experience" or whatever else is out there.  Not that I begrude people
who are in to that.   I've found the episodes since last season's finale
to
be a big improvement over a lot of what came before.  

At least the plot appears to be moving towards something now instead of
being a lot of running in place.
