Ironic how you're talking about bad pacing when you're account is filled with LOST avatars/signatures. LOST even got an episode cut because the pacing was so bad. I think the ratings have also proved this - a drop of around 5 million people? There's nothing more to write about with LOST. I mean, a town in a jungle type place? PMSL OK.....

From your post it sounds as though you don't actually watch Lost, at least not anymore (I may be wrong but that's how it comes across). Because if you did you would know there isn't just a town (which is just Baraches not a town) in the middle of the island there's a reason for it which has been explained and makes perfect sense. Also a town in a jungle doesn't make sense to you but people who can turn invisible, fly etc. does?
As for the episode cut, that was the creators decision as they wanted to have two more seasons but as it's a there number 1 show ABC wanted it for three more years so they decided on 16 episodes a year instead of the usual 23 so they didn't have to stretch and extend the storylines and can tell them as they want to.
You really can't compare Lost Season 3 ratings with Heroes Season 1 ratings as Lost has had two years longer to make an impact and have people tune off or new people tune in. I'm willing to bet money that when Heroes is in its third season it will have lost a number of viewers also, all shows do. But because Lost had such a huge audience in it's first season it has more to lose. If you want to do a fair comparison check Lost Season 1 ratings with Heroes Season 1 ratings.
Also there is plenty more to tell on Lost with so much still a mystery and that we now have events of after they are of the island to see.
