Abrams’ “Lost” almost had a completely different cast
Narrative
Survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island. J.J. Find out which stars missed out on one of the most popular TV shows of all time. Sawyer’s character was originally supposed to be a dapper, suited-up, urban con man from Buffalo, New York.
[repeated line] Desmond Hume: See you in another life, brother
However, when Josh Holloway forgot a line during his audition and then kicked a chair in frustration and swore out loud, the writers liked the freshness he brought to Sawyer’s character and decided to write Sawyer as a darker, Southern drifter instead. Jin and Sun are married and share the last name “Kwon,” which becomes a major plot point in the final season. However, when Koreans marry, the woman never takes her husband’s last name. In fact, it’s not even legal in Korea to marry someone with the same last name, except in rare circumstances.
Edited in Lost (2005)
The strange opening credits were designed by J.J. Abrams on his laptop in black and white as a tribute to The Twilight Zone. I’ve watched a lot of TV shows in my life, maybe too many. However, this is the best TV show I’ve seen in ages.
Probably the best ever
You just can’t predict what’s going to happen. Every week the show seems to teach you something new about the island and its people. I’m on the edge of my seat waiting to find out what’s going to happen, and then before I know it, the show is over and I have to wait to find out what happens next. Absolutely captivating!
This show is amazing and I hope they keep it running because often American fantasy shows get cancelled because the ratings start to drop a bit or because the people in charge think the shows are too weird
I really hope the show continues so we can air it here in England because it is a fantastic show and I would love to have DVDs of this show so all my friends can get hooked on it too.
