In fact I stopped watching Lost because it seems like there's a mini-cliffhanger before every commercial. Then of course there's a little reminder of the cliffhanger after the commercial before the story can proceed. It makes the show seem as repetitive and dull as City Confidential.

Thanks for the Jericho review. I was on the edge of my seat (as I am for every episode) and thought there might be a BIGGER cliffhanger. But I like what they did--left us with a lot of questions we're going to want to see answered come February. And CBS.com has already added a slew of new features to their Jericho site to keep interest in the show. Hope they continue for the entire hiatus. I felt it was the first time the writers let Skeet's talent shine-he was outstanding in the pivotal jail scene. I'm smiling, Rich! Thanks for the Jericho review.
