Lost is quite possibly the most insane, random, off the wall show ever made. At first glance its a show about a group of people who all survive a plane crash and find they are stranded on an Island in the middle of the ocean. Seems straight forward enough i thought, its bound to show their daily lives and how they go about surviving and trying to get home. That isn't even the half of it!
First off theres the island monster. A roaring mechanical sound that comes from the jungle once in a while, striking horror in the hearts of the survivors. Then there is the hatch, the mysterious door in the ground with numbers on it, not just any numbers, THE numbers, the same numbers that appear in almost every episode, the numbers which one of the main characters happens to have seen before, off the island in his old life, a lot! In fact he won the lottery with them and has been cursed since.
All the characters have intertwined pasts and their lives are far more connected than they first knew.
This doesn't even begin to scratch the surface of Lost, there is so much going on, so much to take interest in, and far too much to take in all at once.
If you are new to Lost, try and watch as many episodes in one go as you can, it makes things connect far better, although it is probably more of a challange to say "Try and watch one episode a week" You wont, its not possible if you have more than one available!! This is a show that leaves you wanting to know more every episode, it is not for the impatient or the slow minded, you need to think when you watch it, you need to remember, and speculate. If you are incapable of thought, you wont like Lost.

10/10
