Survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island… J.J. See which A-listers were lost to one of the most popular TV shows of all time. The character of Sawyer was originally supposed to be an older, smooth-talking city hustler from Buffalo, NY.
But when Josh Holloway forgot a line in his audition and then kicked a chair in frustration and cursed loudly, the writers liked the edge he brought to the Sawyer character and decided to write Sawyer as more of a Southern, darker drifter. Jin and Sun are married and share the last name “Kwon,” which becomes a major plot point in the final season. In fact, it’s not even allowed in Korea to marry someone with the same last name, except in rare circumstances…
[repeated line] Desmond Hume: See you in another life, brother.. The strange opening credits were designed by J.J. Abrams on his laptop in black and white as an homage to the Twilight Zone..
When you see it all again, some of the stories make a lot more sense. I even think the ending makes a lot more sense now. That’s something I was completely blind to when I first saw Lost.
