Sadly, the most realistic moment of this show is HR doing knowing about this POS

Who is your favourite character?

Mine has to be Jack, I know it's a simple answer but he's the one. A very flawed leader, he's a character i relate to a lot and I just love Jack especially after 5 watches of the show. He's my favourite character in any tv show.

LOST rewatch

I watched LOST when it originally came out. I am now 34 and on my 6th rewatch and I can’t believe how different it is each time I watch it. Does anyone else feel like this?

I have hated Michael every time and really really liked his character this time. Same with Locke. I never noticed how much Sawyer loves Kate, not sure how I missed that like. I’ve fallen even more in love with Jin, which I think most people would agree with. The most significant thing was Sawyer’s character. I have always loved Sawyer but wow his character development is just unbelievable how at the start he is just all for himself to how much he cares about everyone in the end, Claire, Hurley, Kate, Jin etc.

I’m only on season 5 so got a bit more to go but so intrigued as to how the rest of this rewatch is going to go.

Please let me know if this has happened for you!

Most rewarding episodes to rewatch

I've been rewatching Lost for the first time since it originally aired, and it's been such a wild and fun ride. Knowing all the ins and outs of the lore adds so much depth to all the episodes. I wanted to make this thread because I just reached Dead is Dead (S05E12) and knowing about Smokey/Locke just makes this episode so incredibly neat to rewatch. It's so well done and it really feels like it was *made* to rewatch. All the interactions with Ben and "Locke", mentioning the monster while zoomed in on Locke's face, his smug little smile the whole time, leading Ben right into the temple basement, disappearing on some pretend errand right before the show starts. There's so much that flew over my head when I watched this on TV way back when. This might be my favorite episode of the rewatch so far.

First time watcher here, currently on season 2 episode 8. I'm so excited to see Rose and Bernard see each other again!

I'm not lurking on this sub so I don't get spoiled but I just wanted to post on here because I have no one to talk about this with lol

PS I started watching Lost because people kept saying to watch Lost after watching From. Boyd is Michael here!

Spent 6 years assembling “Lost” piece-by-piece at Swedish thrift stores (with a $12 plot twist at the end).

Hurley and hallucinations, by someone with schizoaffective disorder.

For context: I got diagnosed around the same time I started watching Lost, so this might be a bit of projection as a way to cope with diagnosis. Sorry for all the commas, that's just how I type.

While talking to my friend after watching Dave they mentioned him being schizophrenic, but I personally see him as a lot more schizoaffective.

Schizoaffective is a lot like schizophrenia, but it's tied in with a mood disorder. There are two types: depression type or bipolar type. I think he has depression type.

For me specifically, the way my depression ties into my schizoaffective disorder is that when I was at my lowest, I started hallucinating a positive voice in my head so intensely I believed I had DID or OSDD. Basically the same as Hurley but I didn't see anyone.

There's not really a conclusion to this other than I think he's pretty good representation, even if I believe they were probably going for schizophrenia and fumbled it. It's hard finding a character who's schizoaffective, especially a main character who's a good person.

I haven't finished the show so sorry if this gets disproven later somehow. I just really like Hurley.

S2 E5: The Others

Just on a rewatch and was thinking about the Others stepping through the jungle silently as Jin and Eko watch from bushes. Is it not more likely that these are actually Jacob’s followers from The Temple and not Linus & Co.? They wear tattered clothes and one seems to be a child with a teddy bear.

Anatomy of an episode

Always love watching the Bonus Features on the DVDs. I’m on the Season 2 disc, and does anyone else agree they should have picked ANY OTHER EPISODE apart from Fire + Water for the ‘Anatomy of an Episode’ documentary? It’s still a really fun watch, and any episode works as to show how they make an episode from conception all the way to airing, but I reaaaaalllllyyy wish they picked a better episode to document all that stuff for. I mean, it’s by far, in my opinion, the worst episode of Season 2 lol. Still really cool watching all of the behind the scenes for one episode. If they made a documentary like that for every single episode, best know I’d watch that time and time again!!!!!! I love the Lost: On Location segments. Wish they were longer!!!!!
Also, does anyone else find the ‘Lost Connections’ section sooooo weird. The whole design behind it feels like an old PS2 video game. It’s quite cool, really, it feels like a relic from a long time ago. It’s fun to see all the connections as well, but I never bother going through every connection because it would take hours and it’s just stuff I’ve already seen and know about. It’s just such a strange and out-of-place design that I kind of adore it. I’d love to know whose idea it was to design the menu like that.

Should I recap or rewatch?

Hello, I used to watch lost like 2-3 years and loved it reached somewhere when they found people who actually live in the island and imprisoned jack and the girl. Season 3 or 4 I don’t remember. Had to stop for summer vacation then completely forgot about the show. I wanna watch it again so bad because I know it’s a masterpiece but I don’t want to rewatch 3 season but I forgot a LOT of stuff and don’t have a connection anymore. Is it worth it to rewatch it from the beginning recap or just give up on the show?

When Your DownTown

I was just doomscrolling, and for some reason, LOST crossed my mind. It's my favorite TV show of all time. It's gotten me through so many hard times in my life; it actually brings a little tear to my eye as we speak. I've watched it 10-plus times. Anyway, I thought to myself, "I'm not going to find any active pages," because I remember looking for subreddits before, and all of the posts were years old. Anyway, I just wanted to say that it warms my heart that people are still enjoying the show to this day, and I can't wait to read your posts. Everybody have a great day. Namaste!
