The LOST series is basically about the survivors of a trans-oceanic flight who mysteriously crash and wake up on an island. But the season is more than that, exploring the "back story" of the characters as the show progresses. It includes a good mix of comedy, and intricately linked together mysteries. Season one comes as a set of 6 or 7 DVDs - each disc holds 4 episodes and some bonus material. Season one is basically about the crash on the island, and an introduction to the characters. It ends with the discovery of "the Others" and a mysterious hatch.
