What is wrong with me and this show?

I have the two part season finale of Lost on my Tivo. I'm staring at the info screen. I can't seem to press play. I don't know what the problem is with me and this show. I want to watch it, and yet I don't. Part of it is the time commitment, I think. I've become increasingly ADD over the years and it's really hard to commit 2 hours to something, even if it is only more like 86 minutes. And the weirdest part is that I only have this problem with one other show, Gossip Girl. How is it that both shows inspire me to want to know what happens, but not enough to actually spend the time watching to find out?

Anyway, I'm hoping I get around to the finale at some point this evening. It just occurred to me what would make Lost a lot more palatable to me. Zachary Quinto. Although, as far as I can tell, there's pretty much nothing that wouldn't be improved by his presence. Seriously. He's being wasted on Heroes (at least I assume, since I haven't watched since December) and he really needs to move on to a better show. Or maybe just focus on that promising film career. That reminds me. I do want to watch the rest of the past season of Heroes, no matter how disappointing it may be. But I'm telling myself I can't start that until I've watched the finale of Lost.
