Note: This is part 1 of a three-part thread:Starting tonight is a new ABC show by J.J. Abrams, creator of Alias (also an ABC show).
It's called "Lost" and is billed as an action-packed adventure about 48 survivors of an airplane crash on a Pacific island. They must deal with harsh conditions and each other while hoping to be rescued. As the series progresses, we will learn the personal stories behind each character. Presumably, they won't be rescued anytime soon!
Among the characters who must learn to get along with each other are a mysterious man, a woman and her brother, a "man with a sense of humor", a faded rock star, a Middle Eastern man, a traditional Korean couple, a dad who just got custody of a 9-year-old son he doesn't know, and plenty more.
No Tom Hanks, no Wilson the volleyball (here's why), and no Gilligan, Ginger, and Maryanne. But maybe it'll turn out to be a good show anyway.
I find it suspicious that there is already a nice-looking "Unofficial" fan site for the show, even before the premiere. Underground industry marketing, perhaps?
