Oh goodie!  You brought up 'Lost' so I have an excuse to post something
I thought of at work today.  :)

Lost was a murder mystery where the audience not only didn't find out
who the killer was, the writers forgot there was even a murder and tried
to claim the story was always about the family dynamics of a family they
never introduced.

hyper-active teenagers with ADD whose Ritalin got replaced with
methamphetamine, displaying a level of discipline that a Somali pirate
wouldn't tolerate.
