“Lost” by JJ
Line of Events
The survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together to survive on a seemingly abandoned tropical island. Abrams almost had a completely different cast. See which stars weren’t on one of the most popular TV shows of all time. Sawyer’s character was originally intended to be an older, dapper, suit-wearing urban con artist from Buffalo, New York. However, when Josh Holloway forgets a line during his audition and ends up kicking his chair in frustration and cursing loudly, the writers like his style and decide to write Sawyer as more of a Southern, darker drifter.
The weird opening credits were designed by JJ
Jin and Sun are married and have the surname “Kwon”, which becomes an important plot point in the final season. However, when Korean men marry, the wife never takes her husband’s surname. In fact, in Korea you’re not even allowed to marry someone with the same last name, except in rare cases.. [repeat line] Desmond Hume: See you in another life bro.. Abrams on his laptop in black and white as an homage to The Twilight Zone..
Collected in Lost: The Journey (2005)
At first glance, Lost seems like an impossible concept: a group of people trapped on a mysterious island. How many plot threads can you get out of this before the idea is completely sucked? These are valid concerns, but in the case of Lost, they are completely unfounded. Lost, unlike many shows today where the plot drives the characters, is actually the exact opposite: the characters drive the plot. This isn’t “CSI” or “Law & Order,” where every week is a variation on the same theme.
This is a disaster method
In Lost, you have a group of charmingly different, tragically flawed characters who must somehow learn to survive together while trying to hide their secrets. After a long time of living together, the characters will find it impossible to keep their past a secret. Yes, there is a monster on the island. Yes, mysterious things happen there. Yes, there is often a sense of dread in the air.
And it’s fascinating to watch
But to me, the external problems that the island itself presents are NOTHING compared to the INTERNAL problems that the characters have to face, both with themselves and with each other. This is where the REAL drama lies.
