Just started watching, when does it get good

shit tier comment. the character development is enough to keep watching, let alone the resolution to the mysteries and the overall conflict. Season 6's metaphorical narrative tools don't need to be the end goal in any way. If anything they are a recap so watching is a prerequisite.

I think around season 2-3 is still pretty good but I slowly started to lose interest as it went on, maybe because I was power binging too

I dunno about "exponentially worse," but yeah the pilot was basically like a movie.

oh yeah the giant buttplug was really worth it and the daddy issues for literally every character is top tier writing

People that enjoy watching The Bachelor enjoy watching Lost.

Hope this helps.

t. has never watched LOST and thinks it's just a Love Island type drama

I actually used to think that as well...until I watched it

s1e1

This

nah, episodes like Man of Science Man of Faith, Greatest Hits, Trisha Tanaka Is Dead, Ab Aeterno, Deus Ex Machina, and so many more hit so much harder. The first episode is a well crafted intro, but for the heaviest most potent feels and greatest writing epiphanies, you have to venture on.

You should be suspicious of anyone claiming that an ABC show is good

At approximately 00:00:00 of S01E01 - Pilot the show begins to get good.

season 4. seasons 1-3 are 70% razzle dazzle filler

The ending is a cop-out and there are lots of loose ends/red herrings/references that go nowhere

imagine not understanding LOST 12 years after it finished lmao

also every mystery is answered

There's some highlights in season 1 and 2 but yea the pilot is awesome and the reason the show got picked up for so many episodes

>also every mystery is answered
Reddit spacing, reddit misinformation

And season 3, and 4, and 5, and 6. The entire show is a highlight. A highlight of black. L O S T

It wont, the first seasons are mostly the same, every episode is someone going full retard and fucking shit up for the group or suddenly developing schizophrenia and going on a picnic, there's also a lot of hitting people unconscious with a variety of object which would explain why every character becomes a complete fucking idiot in later seasons, which has their good moments but is still terrible regardless of what brain rotted boomers say here.

cope

cuck

what mystery is not solved?

>when does it get good
user...

Sucks too because in season 1 he had good moments with other characters but then MUHHH SONNNN took over for season 2 so they could write both him and walt out of the show

Except they didn't get written out the show. They do come back. Not every character needs to be the focus 24/7. It's ok to close some arcs.

Critics always have the worst taste.

>an entire thread of zoomers shitting on LOST

never. it never gets good. back to your 12 second niggerbabble tiktoks

being written off full-time is getting written off the show

abloobloo why doesnt everyone stick around forever :(

I'm not complaining about that, they served their purpose

I accept your midwit concession
lostpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Questions_and_Answers
Ctrl+f unanswered

clearly you never watched the show because all those questions are autist tier that completely miss the point of a scifi..especially one that deals with human emotions and exotic matter

Most of those have an inference in them. I guess that we didn't find out what the "Tampa Job" was makes the show shit

just turn it off and don't look back
don't waste your life
it's shit

Walkabout

kek go back to your Euphoria zoomer stop pretending you watched this show

Still, they're unanswered, and the amount of twisting and turning and assumptions required for other "answers" show that it was a badly-written series.

>Who sent Kate the letter about Diane's cancer?
>Unanswered
>It can be assumed that Kate had an unknown friend she was in contact with.
>Twisting and turning

No, it’s just a consequence of the show being so in depth and so full of theory that a wiki page even has such a thing. If other shows were put under the same microscope their unanswered questions pages would be even more bloated than LOST’s

None of the questions in that list matter narratively.

Quit while you're ahead. Nothing gets resolved in a satisfying manner.

Thanks for proving my point.
Another example of writer incompetence, the notorious Third Policeman allusion:
>Lost script writer Craig Wright said the book was chosen "very specifically for a reason."
>However, head writers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse admitted that they have never read the book in the Official Lost Podcast, but heard from Craig that it is a very interesting book.

the show is shit, but freckles top waifu

They had to write Walt out of the show because he was going through puberty and growing. Doesn't make sense for a show that's about 100 days over the whole series. It's the reason why it pissed so many people off. They basically tell us that Walt has a deep connection to the island and has special powers but they throw it all out the window.

>my proof of a why a show is bad is a random interview
>i'm also getting trolled because I'm a gullible idiot

LOST haters in a nutshell

Proving your point? user there's this thing called 'inference' where you can come up with logical explanations to fill in the blanks. If it's not outside the realm of possibility that Kate has contacts in her home town that can tell her when her mother is sick that doesn't make it "unanswered"

They didn't drop his story. He was a candidate touched by Jacob. Many candidates had similar powers where they could attract things with their thoughts (or maybe it was coincidence, that's always been what the show's about). See Kate - her black horse, Hurley - Hurley bird, Sawyer - sawyer pig.

It wasn't a "random" interview, dummy. Back then it was a MAJOR hype/obfuscation attempt to say the novel had all the answers-- meanwhile the shitty writers hadn't even read it.

Never seent it

they did drop his story until the epilogue and he wasn't special because he was a candidate, he was special because certain people are in that world

>Show sets up the "whispers" being associated with the others, the smoke monster, mysteries & the french chick
>The whispers are actually dead people trapped on the island
Not saying that it's a shit reveal but come on, how lame is that shit

The black horse is the smoke monster apparently and the hurley bird isn't a hurley bird lol

Excess of inference is bad writing.

I don't even think you understand what point you're making. LOST is not The Third Policeman. The Third Policeman doesn't have answers to LOST. LOST is influenced by the Third Policeman in many ways though, just like it's influenced by many other books. And if you actually read The Third Policeman (which I did) then you'd know (actually you wouldn't because you didn't even watch the show) that there are a lot of ideas from it that have been implemented.

You're the one who seems confused: it's the fact the novel was used as a false clue and the ramshackle tying of loose ends that shows how amateurishly written it was.

what? when does the show use The Third Policeman as a false clue? Again, you've never seen the show and are reading some random interviews to piece together some dumb barely coherent narrative to cope with your utter seethe that you're missing out on the best show ever made on television.

LOST is a great show but its filled with inconsistencies. French chick is a huge one. Doesn't remember the guy who literally stole her baby (being the last people she saw for years). Sure, you could say that its been a while but she literally spent DAYS with Jin and didn't remember him. Also, the timing is fucked up.

it was the rosseau that thought the whispers were from the others. she was already fucking bonkers.
considering that the others turned out to be regular people, the ghost reveal made sense.

is it the same moron who brings this up each thread? you don't remember fine details of people you saw once for a few minutes 16 years ago, and even if you did people age

You don't seem to know the show very well and you're overestimating your knowledge of it.

I don't like him

lmao I knew you'd post a pic of the book thinking that's proof that it's using it as a clue, but that doesn't mean shit because the show references TONS of books and not once does it say "hey read this book to understand the show". You are clearly mentally challenged.

the only flaw of lost is the fact that it fools you into thinking that everything in the show operates by the rules of our world. But in reality, the show has magic and lots of pseudo science in it. you just need to accept that, and then you won't be questioning "why is the smoke monster made out of smoke". It is because it is. It's likely a leftover from the time egyptians ruled the land and had a bunch of mythical shit. Whatever. If the show was honest about it being a mix of fatansy & scifi from the get go, no one would question it further than that.

Nope, not true. The whispers are introduced many different times. Before people die, when the others are around, before mysteries are revealed/shown, when the smoke monster is near. It's inconsistent
No, not that person but you can see why people have an issue with it. You could say that with Jin but you don't just forget a traumatic event like when your baby gets stolen.

After never having seen an episode, I watched the whole series within the space of two weeks.
Good show, worth the time, cozy 00's nostalgia. (low-rise pants, no social propaganda_)

also explain what is a false clue? The Third Policeman features a hatch. That book is in Desmond's library in the hatch. What exactly is false about it?

That's not a pic of a book- it's a screencap from the show you seemed to naively assume to know a lot about.
What is there to explain? It's something that misleads the viewer or muddles the plot. That's a very silly question.

I can't see why because it's ridiculous. Not a single person can point out someone walking past them that they saw for a few minutes 16 years before. When people remember faces it's because of people or friends that they saw at that time at school or work over and over again.
And no, many traumatic events are suppressed. Danielle even said to Sayid that she hadn't seen anyone but only heard them whisper
