Premiering back in 2004 and embarrassing Michael Eisner who deemed it a terrible $13 million Pilot, the first season of Lost pathed the way for six years of the most addictive sci-fi mystery ever aired. In hindsight, this is barely a scratch on the surface of the Lost universe and, rightly so, J.J. Abrams concentrates on character development through an elaborate series of flashbacks. Each episode fleshes out one or two survivors with this method, revealing their background, their connections to one another and most abundantly; their secrets. The intricate layers of sub-plots and characters become increasingly significant and it is soon clear that the fairly ...  Read the complete review

The first season of the hit TV show Lost was released on Blu-Ray on June 15th of this year. However, although it's the first season, it wasn't the first Blu Ray of Lost as season four had already been released a while ago. This first season basically introduces you to the main characters and their past with brilliant pre-island flash backs. It also shows you the beginning of discovering the island's secrets as they realise that they're in an extraordinary place. The leads are great, Matthew Fox fits the hero perfectly and John Locke is made to be an interesting and insightful character that maybe knows more than you would expect. It's filled with questions ...  Read the complete review

At some point, everyone has heard of Lost, the series that took the US and UK by storm. Whether you have only watched one episode or have followed it from the beginning, it is safe to say that it is definately one of the most mysterious and confusing shows on TV!

The first scenes show the survivors of the crash helping each other and ensuring that everyone receives basic first aid. This is where we first meet Jack Shepherd (played by Matthew Fox). Jack is a surgeon who soon takes the role of leader on the island and tries to keep some kind of organisation between the ...  Read the complete review

Lost - love it or hate it, it definately got everyone talking. I have watched Lost from the start and am still clinging on to the fact that it might come to some sort of reasonable conclusion. The first season for me was the best of the lot and the most sensible and not confusing. It all starts in dramatic fashion as you see the aftermath of a plane crash on an island somewhere and gradually as the first episode unfolds you meet some of the characters involved in the plot. Each week the story is seen through the eyes of another of the main characters as they focus on their flashbacks to what they were doing before the flight ...  Read the complete review

Lost took the world by a storm in 2004 - I was at secondary school at the time and I remember girls rushing in every Friday morning and screaming "Did you see Lost last night??" there would be "Lost" groups who would huddle together and theorise on the story and where it might go next. I tried to watch an episode but missed the first few and was lost - no pun intended. Years later, I came across the box set of season 1 and thought "what the heck," so I rented it out and wow. Here we go: Lost season 1 begins with a airplane crash on an island. The characters and their backgrounds are explored as they learn more about ...  Read the complete review
