Abrams' "Lost" almost had an entirely different cast
Narrative
The survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together in order to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island.. J.J. See which A-listers missed out on one of the most popular TV shows of all time.. The character of Sawyer was originally meant to be an older, slick, suit-wearing city con artist from Buffalo, NY.
[repeated line] Desmond Hume: See you in another life, brother
However, when Josh Holloway forgot a line at his audition and subsequently kicked a chair in frustration and loudly swore, the writers liked the edge he brought to the Sawyer character and decided to write Sawyer as more of a Southern, darker drifter instead.. Jin and Sun are married and share the family name "Kwon", which becomes an important plot point in the final season. However, when Koreans marry, the wife never takes her husband's family name. In fact, it is not even permissible in Korea to marry someone with the same family name, except in rare circumstances..
Edited into Lost: The Journey (2005)
The strange opening credits were designed by J.J. Abrams on his laptop in black and white as an homage to The Twilight Zone.. Unless you live under a rock, you've probably heard of the hit show LOST. You've seen the previews, read the 5-star reviews, and heard the conversations about it at the water-cooler.
At first, there is confusion
If you haven't started watching it yet, you might wonder if you should start watching. Well, let's put it this way.If you like shows with action, you will like LOST.If you like shows with complex characters and interactions, you will like LOST.If you like shows with drama, mystery, and suspense , you will like LOST.If you like shows with humor, you will like LOST.If you like shows where you can watch an episode twice and view it in an entirely different way, you will like LOST.If you like shows where each and every scene has a meaning… Get the picture?Quite simply, if you have ever liked a TV show at all, you will be hooked.LOST is a show about a plane crash on a mysterious island. 48 people survive, but the show centers around 14, all with secrets. But as the show goes on, friendships develop, and we learn that there is more to the island than what it seems…The characters are fantastic–don't pay any attention to those who say the cast is so diverse it is clichéd, those are probably the same people who would have criticized it if it were all white.In short, watch.
Otherwise, I must ask the question… Why aren't you watching?10/10
You will be hooked, unless you're one of those nitpicky people who have a hernia if every single detail in the very first episode isn't exactly correct.
