    When talking about the characters I always forget how much I liked Bubs. He was pretty cool for a smack-head.

    don't agree at all...season 2 had such great characters (spiros, ziggy, the greek, etc.) just like all the other seasons..the docks failing is an important part of baltimore culture. I'm not saying it was my favorite.. but it had some very memorable events

    I don't know if it's HBO or Comcast, but they're pissing me off. Why in the hell are only some episodes available for season 3? This makes no sense. I watched episodes 1-5 yesterday and now need to wait until 6/14 for the rest to be released. Total horseass.

    Season 3 is much better than season 2 thus far.

    It's HBO because I have Bright House and we only have the same episodes available.

    But I have HBO and the series is over. Do they think that once I get done with the series I'll cancel HBO or something? Seems dumb to only release part of a season.

    I think Season 2 is tragically underrated, but I still give Season 3 the edge. Mostly for the Hamsterdam story.

    100% agree with you.

    Season 2 is a load of crap. It's role in the show does catch-on towards the end of season 4 and 5. You realize it's importance. I'm not saying it's not important. I just think it's far below any other season.

    They could have gone without doing Season 2 and 5 and I still would have loved it

    just picked this up from the library. watched the first episode just now.
    i really like it. After watching every episode of Lost in a month, it takes some getting used to a totally different style of TV. The writing is superb. I'll watch another one or two eps tomorrow

    Which season's version of "Way Down in the Hole" did you guys like best? Personally, my favorite is Season 1's, by the Blind Boys of Alabama. Four is by far the worst, imo.
