LOST II: Sawyer takes a cruise, and ends up on the island with a whole new set of castaways. Except this time, since he kind of knows what's going on, he opens a casino and each week spins the pirate wheel for another whacky adventure. There's a famous guest-star each week, and Hurley always ends the show with a song around the temple campfire. Everything is shot before a live studio audience with added laugh-track when necessary. The Christmas Episodes will be event television.

-Sincerely,

Studio Chiefs

I still don't see why ABC doesn't just cash-in on a Hurley/Ben Years series.


i really enjoyed the "oooh, new LOST!" feeling i got from the 10 minute bonus episode. i'm not sure i'd enjoy an actual spin-off, in theory, as it couldn't help but water down the original. but i'm sure i'd watch it.

that selfish reason aside, there's really no justification for ABC to do it. in fact, looking at the world of TV since 2004, i honestly don't know why LOST wasn't canceled. to the studios' credit, they really stuck by it. yes, the ratings were nice, but on a steady decline since the first episode of the second season - i'm not certain the show ever won it's timeslot, let alone appeared in a weekly top ten. it finished 15th place the first season, and 30 something the last.

add in the fact that it cost brazillions every week for the whole cast, dedicated writers, etc, and the sad truth is, LOST may very well be the last great show on network tv.

as long as shows like dancing with the stars continue to be ratings juggernauts (and cost like $500 a week to make) the days of shows like LOST are gone.

Overall I think the series was done well.

I just did not care for the ending.

Some was good, but I think mostly bad.

I think in a few years another LOST series could work.

Lost was great for five seasons. Season 6 is when the show become what everyone was afraid it would become.

I thought this was over? What. The. Hell.


"Batman is only meaningful as an answer to a world which in its basics is chaotic and in the hands of the wrong people, where no justice can be found. I think it's very suitable to our perception of the world's condition today... Batman embodies the will to resist evil" -Frank Miller

"Conan, what's the meaning of life?"

The writers were making the shit up as they went along?

That should have been posted in this thread.
