It's literally the only show where the characters actually have lives and personalities and aren't just standard archetypes
the dumbest show ever written on a macbook at a starbucks
>>221212742All the characters except Locke and Desmond are stock archetypes thoughever
OH NOES HURLEY AND KATE ARE GONNA KISS
>>221212989Proof it
>>221212742The show is designed to be as close to joseph campbell's monomyth bro. Everyone is an archetype.
>aren't just standard archetypes>Jack "Shephard"
>>221212742They stumbled upon that by accident. They wrote archetypes and then decided they should deconstruct everyone of them with a Flashback.Wasn't by design per the showrunners.
For all of it's flaws and shortcomings, Lost probably beats most shows that came after it. It's better filmed, written, has better actors, and better pacing then whatever slop Netflix or Disney+ produced.
>>221212742>dead people>have lives
>>221212742Wtf are you talking about? All this show has are stereotypes. Even Sayid is an angry Arab man 90% of the time
>>221212742>fat guy has an eating disorderSome stellar writing there!
>>221212742>savior complex asshole doctor>druggie musician>deceptively attractive foid with le dark past>damaged bad boy who’s warm and fuzzy on the inside>fat guy>worldly intelligent brown person>overbearing asshole husband and his timid, lonely wifeAll this fucking show is is stock archetypes
>>221213935>stranded on island>still morbidly obese do Americans really?
Still somehow the best tv show that ever was when nothing is wrong.
>>221214184i fuckin hated how every single character had some special, retarded affliction written into their life as if that's even remotely realisticall archetype garbage to the extremei quit watching during season 2one of those shows that you can see the writers scrambling to extend the show as long as possible, every stupid episodewhich is why i can't watch most series
>>221212742I liked how the Dharma Initiative picked up all the best minds around the world to come to the Island but also somehow brought over people to work as janitors and other soul crushing jobs.
>>221212742Matthew Fox was a fave actor of mine. The last movie he was in was in 2015 and then he suddenly stopped acting. Can't really blame him, Hollywood sucks.
k-kate... k...
I have never made it through... s3 I thinkJust get burned out at the constant cliffhanging etc.
>>221212742we have to go baaaaack
>>221213913And he dies by blowing himself up
>>221213796>Had 20+ episodes a season>Only had to wait a few months in between seasons
>>221216438>121 episodes over 6 years >Stranger Things: 42 episodes over 9 years>Euphoria: 26 episodes over 7 years What happened?
>>221216475Unions
>>221212742Well said, Rajesh.
>>221217366Network shows get ad revenue if people watch. Streamers get subscription revenue if people subscribe. Watching what's on the streamer is irrelevant.
>>221216475And none of those had ensemble casts to manage on a Pacific island
>>221212742Every character is built on classic archtypes though, the personality brought is by the actors themselves. Go watch audition tapes and what Matthew Fox play Sawyer. Its hilarious. The only interesting character is Desmond The Constant and Faraday The Witness.
Season 2 started off bad. Season 4 obviously is a worst pic due to Faraday.
>>221219131Faraday by himself is bad but working with Desmond is good dynamics. Kate, Sun, Suns Husband, Michael and Charlie are the worst characters.
>>221219131>mumbles in you're path >refuses to elaborate>leaves>his mum comes and harasses you
