Abrams’ “Lost” almost had a completely different cast
Narrative
Survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island. J.J. Find out which A-listers got lost on one of the most popular TV shows of all time..
However, when Koreans marry, the wife never takes the husband’s last name
The character of Sawyer was originally supposed to be an older, smart-alecky, suit-wearing urban con artist from Buffalo, New York. However, when Josh Holloway forgot a line during his audition and subsequently kicked a chair in frustration and cursed loudly, the writers liked the edge he brought to the character of Sawyer and decided to write Sawyer as a darker, Southern drifter instead. Jin and Sun are married and share the last name “Kwon,” which becomes a major plot point in the final season.
The weird opening credits were drawn by JJ
In fact, in Korea you are not even allowed to marry someone with the same last name, except in rare circumstances.. [repeated line] Desmond Hume: See you in another life, brother.. Abrams on his laptop in black and white as an homage to The Twilight Zone.
Edited for Lost: The Journey (2005)
LOST transcended TV drama writing and encapsulated theme theory when it hit the scene in 2004. That was 14 freaking years ago, and the show still holds up. Seriously.
Jack, Kate, Saywer, Hugo, Locke, Sayid, and yes, even Benjamin Linus' the plot was executed in a way that few have since
My then 16-year-old son said it was the best-written show of its time, and now that he is 30, and a writer himself, he stands by that pledge to this day: all other shows follow in LOST’s shadow.
