Season 1 Review: An intense, intriguing and exciting mix of action and horror. [22 Sept 2004, p.E1]

Season 4 Review: The [first two episodes] are filled with mystery, suspense, action and the lush greenery of Hawaii, where the show is filmed. Be there. Aloha. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Out of these familiar adventure-story components and a host of pop-culture conventions, Alias' J.J. Abrams has fashioned a totally original, fabulously enjoyable lost-at-sea series. Once again, he has taken an outlandish Saturday-serial setup and imbued it with real characters and honest emotions, without sacrificing any of the old-fashioned fun. Read full review

Season 1 Review: While enthusiasts of the genre might warm to the idea of an open-ended mystery, it's suspect how well the show will hold up without a more concrete sense as to what's really happening, barring Gilligan and the Skipper showing up to whisk them away. Read full review

Season 1 Review: With a little bit of prime time luck, Lost just may become what it sets out to be -- a mesmerizing thrill ride with a brain and more than a little humanity. [22 Sept 2004, p.1C]

Feb 26, 2013

Season 1 Review: Abrams and his co-creator Damon Lindelof ("Crossing Jordan") do a terrific job of piling on the plot twists, but they neglect to provide a believably textured world, or any time for the characters to interact between crises. As a result, Lost is at once heart-stopping and strangely dull. Read full review

Sé que soy generoso con mis puntuaciones, pero es que disfruto viendo series. Y si proporcionan misterio, aventuras, acción, giros inesperados, buenas historias y emoción, aparte de unos personajes muy atractivos como no le voy a dar un 10 a esta serie, con su final incluido.

I never realised I would like Lost, but I think it is just great. I thought it wouldn't be my thing, but from the first episode I was hooked from the word go.

I thought it wouldn't be my thing, but from the first episode I was hooked from the word go. The acting is exceptional from all involved, nothing like the amateurish acting I have seen before. One of my favourite characters is Hurley, he is hilarious, there is one episode when he hurts his foot in the sea and he screams at Jin to "pee on it!" Matthew Fox is quite a hunk, and Evangeline Lilly has that star quality that draws you to her. Another favourite is Charlie, he is a great character, same with Locke. The characters are so well developed, and you learn a lot about them. From the excellent photography, the chilling theme tune, the clever plot lines and the well crafted scripts, Lost is a rarity of excellence in my book. 10/10 Bethany Cox… Expand

For those of us who are accustomed to watching serials with duplicate and superficial subjects and seeing serials that lose even a few episodes that do not regret or fall behind in the story of the serial, the Lost series is amazing!

One of the best features of "The Lost" is that it engages its viewer for hours.
One cannot overlook many of these hints or puzzles, the store font changes to a double sequence, or the clock behind the character's head in a sequence inconsistently backslides, the painting on the wall resembles that of a character, and so on. Didn't he understand all of John Locke's manners based on the ideas of the philosopher John Locke or Desmond Hume based on David Hume, or the explicit references to the Bible, But the fun was overwhelming.… Expand

A failure. A big failure. First two seasons were good. After that , i mean what was that? Just a lot of filler episodes with few good episodes. Should have ended up in 50 episodes not 120!!!
