>>222776625it was a time before the demorats woke agenda bullshit then trump came and saved us all.
lots to talk aboutvery charismatic actors some very interesting charactershad a really nice vibe to it in general
>>222776625good ensemble castthats about it, it was carried by the cast. the story was shit and thats only obvious in retrospect. that fuck jarjar took the audiences good faith and fucked around for six seasons. him and lindelof and whoever else was a writer.
>>222776625Showrunner LOST the plot
>>222776625It was the first mystery box show, so people didn't yet know that you can watch until the end and still get no answers
>>222776625Definitely not the last season
>>222776625Cute girls, and boys for that matter, I remember girls getting wet at the thought of Sawyer
>>222776670story is good, haters gonna hate. jack loves you.
>LOST>Object/Place/Thing: Exists>Writers: prefix it with "The">Skitzos watching: "The Rubbish, is it Dharma related? What does it mean? How is The Rubbish related to The Toilet? Why is The Rubbish there? Is it part of time travel? How will The Locke respond?
>>222776625Amazing actors and setting. But the whole "t-the story was always about the characters, we don't have to go balls deep into the islands mysteries" was WACK
Almost everything outside of season 6, and despite that the ending is still kino.It still holds up as one of the greatest television shows of all time. Truly, they do not make shows like this anymore and never will again.
>>222779288They did. From. Even with a Lost actor.
>>222778098twin peaks
>>222776625The first 2 seasons
>>222779831but the writing and characters in from is really bad. no soul or emotions and the mysteries are not as interesting as lost
>>222776625retroactively, nothing.
>>222776625Audience had way too much tolerance towards the show taking 2-3 times more than to show stuff than necessary and shaky cam
>>222776625>What went right?almost everything for 3 seasons. Not much after that
It kept changing themes seamlessly and doing a decent enough job at all of them, even if it was cliched.
>>222781882It should end with a cliffhanger at S4.>no mystery solved>open ending>no bad aftertaste
>>222778098Did they leave any unanswered mysteries? IIRC everything was explained at least vaguely
>>222782223B-B-BUT MY SCIENCE!! THEY NEVER EXPLAINED THE SCIENCE BEHIND ITEverything important was explained, brainlets just couldn't understand
>>222776625Well written characters interacting with some cool drama and full of soulful friendships etc. It's just a masterclass. Nothing comes close.
>>222776625I remember when this show single handedly revived facial hair after 2 decades of clean shaven faces being basically mandatory.
>>222776625It's crazy how much of a product of its time LOST was. It was an immediate success, everyone was talking about it throughout, and then it was immediately forgotten after its run.
It had a big focus on the characters. A lot of shows tried to emulate Lost's success, but what they did was just dude mysteries lmao without putting any effort into developing the actual characters.
Sun was a whore. She should have drowned alone.>born to rich family, never had to work>got to marry some low class bum because she liked him, father just gives in and gives him a job>husband now has to do some dirty work, sometimes violent work to stay in her father's good graces>the job he takes to stay with her stresses him out >she plots to learn English and leave him, despite him doing everything for her>cheats on him with the Asian Mr. Clean>is worried the kid may not be Jin's, meaning she let the dude fuck her raw and cum inside>doesn't tell Jin he's infertile, keeps that information to herself>jin finds out she cheated, immediately forgives her for it because lmao>eventually escapes the island with Jin left for dead, goes home and conveniently gets enough money to just buy her father's company and girl boss, by the way she's smart enough to run an enormous multinational business because she's superwoman>goes back to the island and reunites with Jin>he drowns to death with her, orphaning their child foreverShe is the peak female fantasy, complete with cheating and being forgiven, and being painted as a loving wife, mother, and, a good friend.
>>222779846Not a mystery box show. If you watched for the mystery box you were missing the point.>>222783841The Sawyer-Charlie-Jin-Hurley quest for the VW Bus episode is emblematic of the best parts of Lost.
>>222776625Good characters and a nice tropical setting.
decent show until they pulled the "time travel will explain all of this nonsense" card in i think season 5? I can't even remember bc it's been so longthe main reason it caught on and none of the other mystery box imitators did was the cast
