i've heard very good things about this series, reviews etc saying that its one of the best new shows of the new season. I wouldn't miss it!!!!
Heres what reviewers had to say:
"Hercules the Strong gives it five stars (out of five) and says:
the falls best new show
Whats great? The characters, the action, the mysteries, the pacing, the comedy, the many grisly mishaps, the special effects, the twist endings. The huge and unprecedented number of crash survivors, which should make for some fascinating drama as this strange new society is forged. The three harrowing, and I mean harrowing, planebound flashbacks, which should give many a frequent flyer nightmares for years. The cast generally, and [Jorge] Garcias repeated use of the noun dude in particular. The many fascinating loose ends, so certain to leave audiences craving more (just as the loose ends left by the Alias pilot did three years ago).
Variety says:
expensive, intriguing
More than any of the current shows lensing in Hawaii, "Lost" makes sumptuous use of its tropical surroundings
Abrams (who co-wrote and directed the pilot) also does a nice job layering on the tension
Abrams' misspent youth serves him well tapping into various sci-fi conventions, as he has to some extent with the spy world on "Alias"
The Hollywood Reporter says:
a rollicking good adventure drama, starting with a pilot episode that plants the seeds from which inviting stories should sprout
The adventure component is above average for the small screen, but what seals this deal are the intriguing survivors.
Despite the hurry-up schedule under which the pilot was shot, thought was obviously given to creating scenes of suspense, conflict and physical attraction.
Entertainment Weekly gives it an A and says:
Falls best new drama
I was tempted to hedge on my final grade because Lost is the kind of show that could go anywhere. Then I realized thats exactly why I should commit to the ride.
TV Guide says:
Abrams has done it again, bringing a thrilling, sensational urgency to the hokiest of premises. Relentlessly suspenseful, lavishly produced and terrifically cast with a large ensemble
Lost is a real find. If viewers discover it, theyll want to come back.
8 p.m. Wednesday. ABC."
