Abrams’ “Lost” had an almost completely different cast
Scenario
Survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island… J.J. Find out which A-listers missed one of the most popular TV shows of all time. The character of Sawyer was originally supposed to be an older, streetwise urban hustler from Buffalo, New York. However, when Josh Holloway forgot a line during his audition and subsequently kicked a chair in frustration and cursed loudly, the writers liked the playfulness he brought to the character of Sawyer and decided to write Sawyer as more of a darker, Southern drifter. Jin and Sun are married and share the last name “Kwon,” which becomes a major plot point in the final season.
Adapted from Lost: The Journey (2005)
However, when Koreans marry, the wife never takes the husband’s last name. In fact, in Korea you are not even allowed to marry someone with the same last name, except in rare circumstances… [repeated line] Desmond Hume: See you in another life, brother.. Weird opening credits drawn by J.J. Abrams on his black and white laptop as an homage to The Twilight Zone. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably heard of the show LOST.
Well, let’s put it this way
You’ve seen the demos, read the 5-star reviews, and listened to the water cooler conversations about it. If you haven’t started watching it yet, you might be wondering if you should start watching it. If you like shows with action, you’ll love LOST. If you like shows with complex characters and interactions, you’ll love LOSSES. If you like shows with drama, mystery, and suspense, you’ll love LOST. If you like shows with humor, you’ll love the LOST shows.
You get the picture?
If you like shows where you can watch an episode twice and see it in a completely different way, you’ll love LOST. If you like shows where every single scene has meaning… Simply put, if you’ve ever liked a TV show, you’ll love this. LOST is a show about a plane crash on a mysterious island. 48 people survive, but the show focuses on 14 people, all with secrets. It’s confusing at first.
In short, watch
But as the show progresses, friendships develop and we learn that there’s more to the island than meets the eye… The characters are great – don’t pay attention to those who say the cast is so diverse. It’s a cliché, they’re probably the same people who would criticize it if it were all white. You’ll be thrilled, unless you’re one of those nitpicky people who has a hernia, if every single detail in the very first episode isn’t quite right. Otherwise I have to ask a question… Why don’t you watch it 10/10?
