Currently at Through the Looking Glass and it's just peak LOST right now. Love this show. Also, I always get emotional in The Constant. Best episode of TV imo.
Ive recently stumbled across this podcast. Slowly working my way through it. Just listen when Im caught up on everything else. Been pretty fun. https://lostrewatch.simplecast.fm/
goddamn it laxjoe how the fuck am i supposed to work after watching that again Desmond is the man, that EP was unreal
I see a lot of unfamiliar names popping up. I'm not going to search this thread for spoilers, but I'm assuming that more people join/already on the Island? Maybe it's just the other people already on the there. The show only focuses on around 10 people, 46 people were on the flight. The last newer character they gave TV time to blew himself up with dynamite :( What a fucking show.
explain like I'm 5 the significance of the ending of the Constant - Faraday looking in his journal and seeing "Desmond Hume is my constant" #MindBlown So if he looked in his journal before Desmond took off in the helicopter would that be in there?
been at least 2 years since my ~5th rewatch but IIRC you gotta have someone that exists, and assuming you can talk to, in both the past and present. Since the people in the present, that they can actually speak to, are pretty limited by the whole island setup - Faraday would have used Desmond since he sent him back to talk ab eloise.
Doing another rewatch now and watching and Im mid Season 5. A question just popped in my head. Why does Rousseau not remember Jin if she met him when she reaches the Island? A couple episodes back Farraday was telling Sawyer that he won't get in the hatch because Desmond did not remember him when they first met so that means they never met. Just a small hole in the plot.
Been looking four a good reason to rewatch this show. Tough to believe they only made as many seasons as they did when they easily could have gone eight or so with such a complex story. I remember being fifteen or sixteen when the show first came out and watching with my dad who first got me into it. Feels like on any given episode there could be anywhere from twenty to three intense storylines which they managed to weave together. Might have to fire it up on Netflix next time I have forty hours two kill on a long weekend.
well the reason they limited it was so they could have an end game and a plan to reach it that's why mid season 3 kind of drags because they just kept creating stuff without moving toward an end game
Nicki and mutha fucking Paulo. I remember when that aired, everyone from Disney to the consumer knew there had to be a set date for the end of the series to prevent such shit from happening again. I just happened to start watching it randomly and still love season 4 and 5 above all else. The show just had a clear vision at that point, even moreso than the first season.
eh I normally tell people that have never seen it to stop watching after season 4 and pretend that's how it ends. it's infinitely better that way. first 3 seasons were amazing i did that with Dexter. stopped watching after the trinity killer season and have zero desire to watch any more of the show because up to that point the show was awesome
To each his own. The whole time traveling and island moving shit in the last two seasons along with the writers straight up lying and saying "no the flash-sideways isn't purgatory" when it fucking was, was the most off-putting shit I've experienced when watching a TV show. And I was a complete fanboy when it was airing live. Just got to the end of it was like... fucking blue balls
First half of season 3 sucks. Second half has some of my favorite episodes of the show's run, including the season finale. Big fan.
i believe it was actually stranger in a strange land that they used as proof that the show needed an end date set. both were obviously awful and led to great things so it all worked out in the end.
The first two seasons of lost might be my favorite seasons of any tv show. I didn't get into the show until the third season was already out and I'm pretty sure I watched the entire season two in less than 2 days. Couldn't stop watching.
When there's nothing else I feel like watching, I will put on a random episode of LOST on to fall asleep to. Watched it 4 times through now.
I got the pilot ep on now. I forgot how much of an unreasonable asshole Sawyer was in season 1, eventually becoming an entertaining asshole.
This was posted bc I read an article about people who stopped watching shows bc a character died. Who the fuck could stop watching LOST when Charlie died? That's insane
Who here was part of the rivals/early TMB LOST crew? That was easily my favorite thread on any message board ever. Don't know if I'll ever watch a show that had me engaged literally seven days a week. It's why LOST will always be my favorite TV watching experience.
Sup. Started watching at the very end of the Rivals days. This thread was a blast for the final season.
ha. me too. probably 2 episodes a night for the last couple weeks and several on sunday because I was hungover. last night was Shannon's funeral Forgot how much i fucking hated Anna Lucia when she tried to act like a hardass before killing shannon and sobering the fuck up. goddamn her acting was bad. that episode was a hell of a lot of feels though. 1st time they had the "reunited shrubs scene" swear the same scene happened ~4 times in the series. people walking out from behind the same damn shrubs on the beach for hugs and stuff with music going. Sawyer's coming out moment from his butterfly cocoon: "I got two tubes of sunscreen and a flashlight that says he chokes" - after that he's probably my 2nd favorite character. His nicknames and cut-downs are fucking great. Sawyer - Hugo scenes are the best
Halfway through season 3. Not as bad as it gets credit for, aside for the forced awkward introduction of Paulo and Nikki
I've watched the series all the way through 3 times and still don't really understand their existence at all. At least Paulo went on to do bigger and better things at Westworld.
Terribleness of Stranger in a Strang Land is followed up by such a great episode. Hugo/Sawyer/Jin fixing the car episode is just fantastic TV. One Liners everywhere
Man I think it's about time for a rewatch. It's been way too long. While not the best show I've ever watched it will very likely always be the most enjoyable viewing experience for me. The theorizing and research after each episode took up so much of my time in college when I should've been studying.
