Reminds me of the old days, playing "Hi Bob!" while watching the Bob Newhart Show; every time someone says "Hi Bob!" everyone takes a swig. I was pretty much a Lost devotee through the second season, but totally lost (no pun intended) interest in the third. Things were weird the first two seasons, but they got downright bizarre in the third, then went downhill from there. I'll likely watch a few episodes this season to see what's up, but after seeing the teasers I don't hold out much hope for the show. Cassie’s drinking game is great!

I'm having a whole whack of people over on the Thursday to watch. I'm really digging the cupcake idea and might go with that. We also do a drinking game, which is the best way to watch Lost (but only with episodes you've seen before, otherwise you get too caught up in the show and forget about the game!) We usually get a flate of beer (or cola if it's a weeknight) and everyone takes one can/bottle when the show starts. Whenever something happens, you take a sip/gulp/chug. For example: Saywer calls someone by a nickname = One sip Jin speaks English = one sip Hurley says dude/Desmond says "Brutha" = one sip Jack cries = one big gulp Kate flip flops between Jack and Sawyer = one big gulp Scene with a montage = everyone shout "MONTAGE!!" and chug until the music/slow motion stops etc. etc. The list can go on and on, but it's best if you have a smaller one so everyone knows what to look for. It's really a fun game and gets everyone into the spirit for the new episode. Awesome Ideas! I’m having a whole whack of people over on the Thursday to watch.

It's would be easy to trace the logo on a large sheet of paper and have it look great. I've done this with coloring book images and it turns out great!

I've never even seen 1 episode. But this sounds like a lot of fun. My friends and I would do similar things when we watched The Sopranos, especially the last two seasons when our "family" expanded. "These Sunday dinners are important, Janice!" The season premiere would be an italian pot luck with someone brining the chicken parm, someone with the fried eggplant, and so on. Then each week thereafter 1 person or a tag-team would make there signature italian dish for the rest to enjoy. Of course now that the show has ended we don't get together that often. Maybe I could have a 24 party and just yell "Holster your weapon!" at everyone as they walk through my CTU/Living room. I hope you and your company have a lot of fun with LOST. The commercials for this season look good. Late... You know…I’m not into Lost at all. I’ve never even seen 1 episode. But this sounds like a lot of fun.
