lose hold something interest for everyone . you can say an awfully lot about this series and and an awfully lot have be say and so i would not be the one to spell it all out for you again . just read the person who love it and and you will know why you want to watch it . the nice thing about this series be that it totally new . there be not much movie and even few series base on the theme of only suspense and but lose live up to the theme with pride . it all about the unexplained and if you combine that with an exotic location and nice plot twist and an excellent cast and a good format ( present and past combine in single episode ) you will have a series in which every episode be a story on it own but part of a great telling . you want to have all the insight of the character and you want to see the overall picture and you will want to know where the writer be take you . the result of that be that it a series which do not let you go . on a more sceptic note and the series go under a bit in season 2 and probably due to it own success . it be well know that lost be only write for one season originally and when the overwhelming success follow and the writer be overwhelmed too . in my opinion they make the mistake to add even more mystery and in a high pace in season 2 and then to solve the one ( or partially at least ) the one of season 1. at the end of season 2 you end with a big blurr of secret and plot twist and unexplained phenomenon and but there be only so much a viewer can take . the difference between season 2 and 3 however be huge . season 3 hand out a lot of insight and to partially replace them with new question . and that exactly how they should write while you want to thumble from one plot twist to the next and not get a tsunami of secret spread all over you and then pick up a few to explain to the viewer . they get that in season 3 and bring u a promising series future for season 4. it good to see that such a different format of a series and can be so hugely popular .
