Abrams’ “Lost” almost had a completely different cast
Survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island. J.J. See which A-listers missed out on one of the most popular TV shows of all time. However, when Josh Holloway forgot a line in his audition and then slammed his chair in frustration and cursed loudly, the writers liked the edge he brought to the character of Sawyer and decided to write Sawyer as a more Southern, darker drifter. Jin and Sun are married and share the last name “Kwon”, which becomes an important plot point in the final season. However, when Koreans get married, the wife never takes her husband’s last name.

In fact, in Korea, it’s not even allowed to marry someone with the same family name, except in rare circumstances.. [repeated line] Desmond Hume: See you in another life, bro.. The strange opening credits were designed by J.J. Abrams on his laptop in black and white as an homage to The Twilight Zone. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably heard of the hit show LOST. You’ve seen the previews, read the 5-star reviews, and heard the chatter about it at the water cooler.
Get the picture?
If you haven’t started watching it yet, you might be wondering if you should start watching. Well, let’s put it this way. If you like action shows, you’ll love LOST. If you like comedy shows, you’ll love LOST. If you like shows where you can watch an episode twice and watch it in a completely different form, you’ll love LOST. If you like shows where every scene has meaning…
It’s confusing at first
Quite simply, if you’ve ever liked a TV show, you’ll be hooked. LOST is a show about a plane crash on a mysterious island. There are 48 survivors, but the focus of the show is on 14 of them, all with secrets. But as the series progresses, friendships develop and we learn that there’s more to the island than meets the eye… The characters are fantastic – don’t pay attention to those who say the cast is so diverse it’s cliché, they’re probably the same people who would criticize it if it was all white. In short, watch it.
Why aren’t you watching?
You’ll be hooked, unless you’re one of those sloppy people who gets a hernia if every detail in the first episode isn’t exactly right. Otherwise, I have to ask… 10/1
