Abrams’ “Lost” was almost a completely different cast

Plot

The survivors of a plane crash must work together to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island. J.J. See which A-listers were left out of one of the most popular TV shows of all time. Sawyer’s character was originally supposed to be an older, slick, suit-wearing city hustler from Buffalo, NY.

[repeated line] Desmond Hume: See you in the next life, bro

However, when Josh Holloway forgot a line in his audition and later kicked a chair in frustration and swore loudly, the writers liked the representation he brought to the Sawyer character and decided to write Sawyer as a more Southern, darker driver. Jin and Sun are married and share the last name “Kwon,” which becomes a major plot point in the final season. However, when Koreans get married, the wife never takes her husband’s last name. In fact, in Korea, it’s not even allowed to marry someone with the same last name, except in rare cases..

Adapted as part of Lost: The Journey (2005)

The strange opening credits were designed by J.J. Abrams on a laptop in a black and white homage to The Twilight Zone. I’ve watched a lot of TV in my life, maybe too much. But this is the best TV series I’ve ever seen.

Probably the best ever

You just can’t predict what’s going to happen. Every week the show seems to tell us something new about the island and its inhabitants. I’m on the edge of my seat waiting to find out what’s going to happen. Then before I know it, the show is over and I have to wait to find out what happens next.

This show is amazing and I hope they continue to make it a success because often great US shows get cancelled because the ratings start to drop a bit or the directors think the shows are too weird

Extremely engrossing! I really hope the series continues so that we can get it here in England because it is a fantastic show and I would love to get the DVDs of this series so I can get all my friends hooked too.
