I'm just going to say as a blanket statement that all ARGs are a waste of time if they're not canon to the show....

[Rob G.]

Absolutely.  All the ARGs since Lost Experience have failed because Team Darlton went back on their word that Lost Experience would be absolutely, reliably 100% canon.  People won't invest in the ARGs if they have no more import to the show than video games.  Guess who you get to play?  Gamers.  And nobody else.  When they launched the first ARG, the media heralded it as an innovative new era for "interactive television"--- but that was all predicated on the idea that anything found in the ARG would be applicable to the actual mysteries of the show.

Once they went back on their word on that, then there is absolutely no point to any of the subsequent ARGs, other than their value to the gaming world.  And if you're not part of that, then why bother?

And--- here's the tie-in to recent comments by Darlton--- it is reminiscent of Darlton's recent comments about Libby, and how the character's arc may be resolved in one of those paperback novels that you see at Borders sitting alongside the million ground-out hack-written Star Trek and Star Wars novels.  That's not good enough. 

Team Darlton needs to realize that there is only innovation insofar as the ancillaries--- the ARGs, novels, video games, etc.--- can be considered reliably canon.  It is the canonicity that makes the ancillary items truly interactive.  Otherwise, it's just offshoot novels and video games, just like Star Wars and Star Trek.  Hardly innovative.

My point is that, as with the Libby comment, they need to realize that anything that is not reliably definitive cannot be considered a satisfactory conclusion to many of the mysteries and issues raised in the show.

Feel better, Captain?  Was that worthwhile enough for you?
