I know it shits the bed at some point and the finale hugely disappointed people, but a part of me is curious.

I enjoyed the series...
I saw the pilot when it aired, but I ended up not following the show, in favor of other shows... After the show ended, I bought the DVDs and watch all six seasons of it... I couldn't wait to see every next episode...
Yes, the final season was a bit of a let down, but it still had some good parts.

Yes, most definitely. It’s pretty awesome. I watched the series for the first time myself 4 years ago and was hopelessly addicted.

I would say yes its worth watching.
But i do think that each season after season 1 does have a drop of quality, and season 6 is a lot weaker than season 1. But i still don`t think any of the seasons are bad and they are all worth watching.
And the ending of the show is not as bad as some people claim it is

Yes it is. Most of it is great and I didn’t think the ending was bad.

Will you like the ending? Will you like the rest? I can't make promises. It partly depends on your personal taste.
However, it's one of the most groundbreaking shows of all time. It did a lot of things first (that other shows have since tried to copy). People had watercooler conversations the day after each episode, coming up with theories, biting their nails waiting for the next episode. And after the season finale, people would get very anxious for 3 months. In fact, it was probably the first show that drove people to spend a lot of time reading through the fan Wikia.
Therefore, it's worth giving it a shot. 121 45-minute episodes isn't that much in the grand scheme of things, so it's not like it would take you that much time to finish it.

It's been a while since I've watched an episode of Lost, but I was really into it years ago. At one point, I considered it to be my favorite show. It'd be interesting actually for me to go back and see how it holds up. From my memories, I do recommend watching it. It was a lot of fun. A good combination of suspense and character drama. The final season is really the weakest season. Seasons 1-5 were all very good.

A cautious yes.
I think they "bit off more than they could chew" and by season 4 it felt a little directionless and never quite recovered. I don't really know what they could have done by the end that would have been satisfying, it just all felt a bit "meh" by then. The first three seasons are pretty compelling and addictive though and the remainder has it's moments.

Yes. It is. And if you don't know anything about it, I actually envy you. I kind wish I could forget it and watch it all over again.
Although I think the ending is just ok instead of awesome, the journey is pretty amazing IMO.

Season 6 might be the weakest but overall, is still worth watching.

Yes, I think it is most definitely worth watching. Never before and never since has there been a TV show that had me eagerly anticipating every new episode, and that had me jumping on the Internet right away after each episode ended in order to discuss it and see what others had thought of it or if others had noticed something I hadn’t.
It is not my favourite TV show ever (I am not even sure it would make my Top 5 list in fact) but watching it as it aired was a fantastic experience.

Yeah, from what i know it has one of the best pilot episodes. Yeah. As I noted in my previous post... I saw the pilot when it aired, but I did not follow the show after that... I ended up watching other shows that were on at the same time... Several years later, many people kept talking about how great the show was... After the show had ended, and the entire series was available on DVD... I remembered how intriguing the pilot was, and I wanted to see the rest of the show to find out what happened after that... I bought the first couple of seasons on DVD, and was hooked... I couldn't wait to see the next episodes, and I went through them so fast, that I had to scramble to get the rest of the seasons, so that I wouldn't have to wait to see more. LOL! Not many pilots have been so good, that it got me to come back after such a long time.

The show killed an entire genre for me. Because it was so good or because it was so bad?

The show killed an entire genre for me. Because it was so good or because it was so bad? Because it started as wonderful, challenging, engaging, mysterious, teasing fun that promised lots and lots of intelligent pleasure and ended up a total disappointment and basically soap.

Yes and I don’t think it shits the bed. There are a few aspects later on that I don’t enjoy as much but the final season has arguably the most emotion of them all. Definitely worth looking into.
