Lost again

The writer's strike in America is finally over, I don't know what settlement was reached, and I'm not to interested as long as those writers get busy.
Speaking of series, I had the course cultural journalism for the first time today (seemed a pretty obvious choice for me). Our teacher, whom I also have in another course, is such a great character, and a reporter for a Danish paper. The first assignment he gave us, had the purpose of making us feel extremely uncomfortable and stressed. The assignment was to write an introduction to the series LOST, 100-200 words, in an hour. I thought that was pretty funny, since I know the series so well (just look at my last post), I guess I had a pretty big advantage - the girl next to me who didn't know it asked 'Is it the one with the polar bear?'. But advantage or no, it remains to be seen whether I produced a decent text. In every case it looks to be an interesting and challenging course - next time we're going over the interview genre, so be warned, I might come knocking on your door with a pad and pencil in hand.
