I got lost on Lost
during season 3 when the focus was more on 'the others' and all the initial mystery/fantasy was lost. From all I hear it picks up on the mysterious aspect in later seasons in which case I may rent some to catch up.

season three drudged along a bit, season 4 picked it up (introduced several newbies)
season 5 delved right into the mythology (jacob/island especially)
and ended on a high.
Season 6 promises a lot, *fingers crossed* it delivers

Now that sounds more like it.
It was the mythology that set it apart from anything else on TV at the time and I was gutted they tried to ground it in too much reality (cf. Phantom Menace & midi-chlorians vs. The Force).
